"Unfortunately, the person who does not want you to study Scientology is your enemy as well as ours.¶ When he harangues against us to you as a "cult," as a "hoax," as a very bad thing done by very bad people, he or she is only saying, "Please, please, please don't try to find me out." ¶ Thousands of such protesting people carefully investigated by us have been and to have unsavory pasts and sordid motives they did not dare (they felt) permit to come to light." — L. Ron Hubbard |
"The suppressive person (whom we've called a Merchant of Fear or Chaos Merchant and which we can now technically call the suppressive person) can't stand the idea of Scientology. If people became better, the suppressive person would have lost. The suppressive person answers this by attacking covertly or overtly Scientology. This thing is, he thinks, his mortal enemy since it undoes his (or her) "good work" in putting people down where they should be. ¶ There are three "operations" such a case seeks to engage upon regarding Scientology: (a) to disperse it, (b) to try to crush it and (c) to pretend it didn't exist." — L. Ron Hubbard |
