Scientology and Psychiatry - Space Opera

Space Opera

The Church of Scientology teaches a "Space Opera" history of the universe to Scientologists graded at the level of Operating Thetan and above. Events are told of which allegedly happened billions and even trillions of years ago (contradicting science's estimated age of the universe), in which psychiatry was a tool of oppression used by evil alien civilizations.

Hubbard decided that psychiatrists were an ancient evil that had been a problem for billions of years. He cast them in the role of assisting Xenu's genocide 75 million years ago. In a bulletin entitled Pain and Sex, Hubbard declares that "pain and sex were the of degradation", having been devised eons ago by psychiatrists "who have been on the track a long time and are the sole cause of decline in this universe". In a lecture called Aberration and the Fifth Dynamic Hubbard stated:

take a sheet of glass and put it in front of the preclear — clear, very clear glass — which is supercooled, preferably about a −100 centigrade. You got that? Supercooled, you know? And then put the preclear right in front of this supercooled sheet of glass and suddenly shove his face into the glass. Now, that's pretty good. I mean, that was developed about five billion years ago by a whole-track psychiatrist . The mechanism of brainwashing which I gave you, with supercold mechanisms and so forth, is very well known, was used very extensively in the Maw Confederation of the Sixty-third Galaxy. They had a total psychiatric control of all of their officers and executives, and when they got tired of them they used this specific method of brainwashing"
