L’affaire Jean Luc Barbier

Avant-propos

L’histoire de Jean-Luc Barbier est sans doute une des chapitres les plus célèbres mais aussi les plus sombres parmi les nombreux contes d’épouvantes sur la Scientologie en Suisse.

En 1989 Jean-Luc Barbier progressait sur les niveaux Supérieurs de la Scientologie à Clearwater, en Floride. Abruptement, il fut interrompu, après avoir refusé de devenir membre de WISE (une affiliation de Scientologie qui cherche à exploiter commercialement toute société appartenant a un Scientologue en lui imposant une commission de 15% sur ses revenus). L’Eglise de Scientologie fit traîner à travers les tribunaux la demande de remboursement que Jean-Luc Barbier lui avait soumis pendant plus de 10 ans. Une fois rembourse, l’Eglise de Scientologie le déclara comme mentalement malade. Jean-Luc Barbier eu gain de cause contre l’Eglise de Scientologie en Septembre 2006 pour cette diffamation.

J’ai lu de nombreux documents publiés par Monsieur Barbier sur l’Internet et je peux affirmer que selon mes expériences et observations personnelles toutes les déclarations qu’il a faite a l’égard de ses expériences avec l’Eglise de Scientologie qui se sont déroulées entre 1989 et 1990 sont entièrement véridiques.

Je le sais fort bien, car j’étais là. De plus j’étais son auditeur. (Un auditeur est un thérapeute selon le vocabulaire Scientologique)

Une affaire qui tourne mal

C’est au printemps 1989 à Clearwater, en Floride, que je fis la connaissance de Jean-Luc Barbier.

Etant à la fois francophone ainsi qu’un des “auditeurs les plus réputés au centre le plus avancé de la Scientologie à l’époque, je procédai à l’exécution d’un programme de séances avec Jean-Luc.

Je ne crois pas révéler des secrets personnels de Jean-Luc en déclarant qu’il m’a toujours semblé comme une personne plutôt « normale et équilibrée » et même sympathique. En effet selon les critères Scientologues et contrairement aux déclarations extravagantes des représentants de la Scientologie il devait absolument être en bonne condition mentale et certainement pas malade mentalement afin d’être admis sur les niveaux supérieurs de Scientologie. La détermination de l’état mental (et donc de la préparation) pour les niveaux supérieurs n’est jamais déterminé par celui qui donne les séances (auditeur) mais plutôt par un ensemble de “Superviseurs de cas”. Ce sont les plus hauts placés techniquement en Scientologie et ils déclarèrent unanimement selon leurs propres critères que Jean Luc Barbier était “mentalement sain” en 1989.

Les choses progressèrent, du moins selon ma perspective à l’époque, de façon plutôt normale jusqu’au moment ou pour des raisons purement financières on essaya de lui extorquer de larges sommes tout simplement parce que l’Eglise considérait que Jean-Luc était capable de les trouver.

Pour soutirer de l’argent à ses adeptes, il est la coutume pour l’Eglise de Scientologie de les soumettre à de fortes pressions jusqu’à ce qu’il craquent et ainsi vident leurs comptes de banque ou empruntent aux limites de leur crédit.

Ayant vu maintes fois l’amertume résultant de cette pratique fâcheuse, je l’ai fréquemment dénoncé. Mais l’Eglise de Scientologie est l’organisation la plus cupide que j’aie connu de toute ma vie. Ainsi mes plaintes ont toujours été ignorées.

A la fin de son voyage en Amérique, Jean Luc était fort perturbé. La raison m’a toujours semblé fort claire: on avait essayé de le contraindre par la force, en se servant de menaces de malédictions et de damnation éternelles, ainsi que d’accusations répétées d’égoïsme et de mesquinerie parce qu’il avait oser résister au nettoyage complet de ses comptes de banque par l’Eglise de Scientologie.

J’ai essayé dans la mesure de mes moyens limités à l’époque de réconforter Jean Luc, mais ne pus le faire que de façon plutôt médiocre.

L’Eglise de Scientologie se considère non seulement comme un véritable joyau sur cette planète mais aussi comme étant la seule organisation dans l’univers entier, capable de sauver et réhabiliter l’homme

Dotés d’une telle attitude, ceux qui croient à cette fable comme le font évidemment les représentants officiels de la l’Eglise de Scientologie (parmi lesquels on compte Suzanne Montangero, ses collègues ainsi que ses supérieurs – un bon nombre desquels je connais personnellement), se sentent complètement lésés par toute insinuation que l’Eglise de Scientologie devrait faire des réparations ou même des excuses à quiconque, malgré les traitements les plus infâmes auxquels elle les auraient soumis.

Une fois de retour en Suisse Jean-Luc évidemment se rendis compte de l’escroquerie et des abus que l’Eglise de Scientologie lui avait fait subir.

Face à tout mécontent ou problème légal, l’Eglise de Scientologie base ses action sur la présomption que la Scientologie et L. Ron Hubbard sont tous deux parfaits. Par conséquent, ce sont des membres qu’elle qualifiera toujours par la suite comme irresponsables et de privés d’autorisation qui seront annoncés comme étant les seuls coupables. En d’autres mots on se sert de boucs émissaires. Ces boucs émissaires ne sont, bien sur, jamais ceux qui contribuent aux sommes d’argent faramineuses que l’Eglise de Scientologie soutire à ses membres, à moins qu’ils ne produisent une catastrophe financière qui se répercute jusque dans l’assemblée législative du pays. Les mésaventures de Lena Akesson et des frères Nordlund en Suède en 1986 ainsi que Bertrand de Petigny en France en 1987 en sont parmi les rares exemples.

Dans le cas de Jean Luc Barbier, je fus moi-même le bouc émissaire.

Comme il est décrit plus haut, la philosophie contemporaine de l’Eglise de Scientologie est que L.Ron Hubbard ainsi que l’Eglise qu’il a formée sont tous deux infaillible quelque soit le sujet en question.

Une foi ce dogme accepté comme vérité, la seule conclusion possible est que l’auditeur et le superviseur de cas on saboté le cas de l’adepte si celui ci se trouve mécontent, et en toute probabilité (toujours selon les croyances fanatiques de l’Eglise), ceux-ci auraient agit de façon délibérée et malveillante, même s’ils auraient tout à perdre en agissant d’une façon aussi saugrenue.

La Justice en Scientologie

La procédure de Justice en Scientologie non seulement assume la culpabilité de l’accusé, mais traite toute plaidoirie de non culpabilité comme “évidence de culpabilité et de non responsabilité”. Cette doctrine est basée sur l’idée aberrante que les gens sont en tout temps responsables pour leur condition et de tout ce qui puisse leur arriver. Puisque tout ce qui leur arrive est de leur faute, quiconque aurait l’impudence de rejeter la “Justice Scientologique” ou de dénoncer l’Eglise de Scientologie ou ceux qui extorquent des fonds en son nom commettrait le crime le plus vil qui soit et serait coupable de la pire calomnie imaginable. C’est la façon obligatoire de penser de tous les gens qui occupent des fonctions en tant que représentants officiels de l’Eglise de Scientologie. Quelqu’un qui serait dépourvu de cette façon singulière de penser n’est tout simplement pas considéré comme étant éligible à tenir de telles fonctions au sein de cette l’Eglise.

Les procédures de Justice Scientologiques, sont en réalité ancrées dans un concept de la Jurisprudence qui est devenu inusité en Europe depuis le Moyen age et la Sainte inquisition. Selon ce concept barbare de la Jurisprudence, tout affront ou désaccord avec la doctrine jugée à priori orthodoxe par l’inquisiteur (surnommé officiel d’éthique selon le jargon Scientologique), résulte en une culpabilité automatique. L’hérétique sera donc assujetti aux châtiments les plus infâmes. Des dénonciations contre l’inquisiteur et ceux qu’ils représentent seront souvent perçus par l’Eglise de Scientologie comme étant le comble du blasphème et selon sa philosophie actuelle digne de cruauté et de sadisme.

Il est inutile de révéler que l’on me trouva entièrement coupable du sort de Jean-Luc Barbier en 1989 et de tout ce qui en découla. J’ai donc du endurer des châtiments aussi tortueux que cruels.

Bien sur les véritables coupables qui s’étaient comporté de façon ignoble avec Jean-Luc furent largement récompensés pour avoir soutiré des millions de dollars à d’autres individus cette même année. Que je sache, ils le font toujours.

Trois ans plus tard ce fut à mon tour de partir pour toujours de l’infâme Eglise de Scientologie.

J’étais reconnu comme étant le meilleur auditeur de Class XII, (le niveau de loin le plus avancé). J’était à un niveau ou j’avais appris la totalité des connaissances existantes en Scientologie et donc capable de juger à fond tout ce qui y est bon ainsi que tout ce qui y est mauvais..

Epilogue

J’ai tourné la page en ce qui concerne l’Eglise de Scientologie. Je crois toujours en la réalisation spirituelle de quelqu’un ainsi qu’au développement de ses capacités intellectuelles mais jamais par des méthodes autres que l’honnêteté, l’intégrité et le respect pour autrui. Je perçois également une énorme différence entre la philosophie originalement proposée par la Scientologie en 1952 et son application abjecte par une organisation qui est désormais réduite à la subjugation et à la servitude d’autrui.

En ce qui concerne et ce que j’ai dus endurer durant mes 20 années au sein de cette Eglise, je n’éprouve plus la moindre amertume. J’ai des souvenirs positifs sur Jean Luc Barbier. J’ai souvent souhaité que Jean-Luc partage les mêmes sentiments envers moi. Par contre, parce que je connais de nombreuses histoires plus abominables les unes que les autres et beaucoup de ses secrets les plus gardés , l’Eglise de Scientologie demeurera toujours pour moi un des organismes les plus crapuleux en existence sur cette planète.

Pierre Ethier

Ancien Auditeur de Classe XII de l’Eglise de Scientologie.

WARNING

WARNING:  At the behest of the Church of Scientology Office of Special Affairs (OSA) a cowardly individual has been sending emails of an illegal and hateful nature while seeking to attribute them to me. The warped and perverted communications impersonating me are using the email address friendsofpierre@hushmail.com.

In most cases they contain significantly altered and embellished private communications, designed to upset and enturbulate people, so that they will be distracted from their mission of repairing cases that have been messed up through botched and reckless counseling.

Pierre Ethier

Note from admin: Pierre Ethier does not endorse any groups , associations and independent auditors  unless otherwise specified via private communication. Any arrangements for Case Supervision must be confirmed directly with Pierre, as well as the current status validation of training, certifications and good standing related to ethics, cramming and application of standard tech. Pierre Ethier DOES NOT endorse the delivery of the Ls by other  auditors or trainees. Please be warned that there were multiple instances when auditors have been fraudulently claiming that Pierre Ethier is C/S-ing their practice and on few occasions have been fraudulently charging the PC under a false pretense. 

Pierre Ethier DOES NOT endorse the delivery of the Ls by other auditors or trainees, this specifically apply to TREY LOTZ whom Pierre Ethier never actually trained on L12 nor L10 after too many flubs,and insisting on auditing pcs that were clearly not setup, (ignoring FLUNKS and explicit interdiction from Pierre as the C/S), in addition to Trey refusal to correct on L11 and on chronically missing witholds on his pcs. Trey Lotz has had multiple refund requests from botched up Ls cases that Pierre never C/Sed. In each case he declined to refund them, even when one of them became suicidal. They were dumped on Pierre.

Karen de La Carriere has told Pierre that she has never C/Sed for Trey Lotz nor trained him on the Ls. She has not given him any Ls materials either. Rather a squirrel source, that Pierre have repeatedly condemned for Alcoholism, out-2D with his clients as well as for gross out-tech was used as the “reliable source” to complete TREY LOTZ training.

Yvonne Gillham-Jentzsch

 
 
 
 I had the opportunity to meet and converse with Yvonne at the Flag Land Base, a few weeks before her passing, when she was dying of cancer. She never mentioned a word about her condition, but readily got interested in me, asking me all sorts of questions, when I was still a green Sea Org member, had never talked to her and I was still a nobody in Scientology. Of all people I have met this lifetime, she remains my number one for her level of ARC.

Dalai Lama in Canada

Last week we had the fortune to meet Dalai Lama during his visit in Canada and hear his message about companion and change. Earlier, Hollywood actor and Tibetan Buddhist activist Richard Gere called on Canadian Prime Minister to meet the Dalai Lama in public.
The immensely popular 76-year-old Tibetan spiritual leader, who fled his homeland in 1959, nine years after Chinese troops invaded the Himalayan plateau, also delivered a profound update about the resiliency of his people and the prospects of democratic change in China. Dalai Lama started his speech with “Canada belongs to the Canadian people, not to your party (or) other party.”

“For several years we have feared that the whole world could be blown up.” said Dalai Lama. “Human history never experienced that sort of thing, the 20th century became the century of violence, a century of bloodshed. According to some history, about 200 million people killed through violence”
On a question on taking up environmental concerns, Dalai Lama said from his own experience, in the early 1960s he had no idea of the meaning of ecology. Then after meeting scientists and ecologists, etc, he had developed real concern. He said education, including by the media, could help. He said the Rio summit more or less failed, while the Copenhagen summit failed because national interest was considered more important while global interest was not considered an emergency. That was a mistake, he said adding that global warming is a concern for everybody. So big nations should give priority to the global issue and then to their national issue. He, however, said now more and more people are seriously talking about these things, which was positive.

Asked about his views on the worldwide Occupy movement, Dalai Lama said basically there was the need to bring issues of concern to greater awareness of the general public, including leaders. If people remained silent, he said the concerned authorities might not pay attention. He recalled participating in a meeting in New Delhi, India on the difficulties of the poorer section of society during which some people were talking of a demonstration. He said at that time he had told them that if they organize well he might even join the demonstration for the poorer people.
Dalai Lama said the method should be non-violent as they will then have more sympathizers. He added that if the motivation was good, and the end was justified, but if the method was too negative then even sympathizers may feel disaffected and disillusioned.

Who Are The Squirrels? – by Silvia Kusada

It all started with a beautiful idea to help, to have a better world, to have happier people. The idea was genuine, the intention clean…..at least for some.

I guess to many of us that was what Scientology meant at the very beginning. We felt we could be free to be ourselves, to have our own ideas, we enjoyed the dream of a society where honest people have rights and where we could finally deal with truth.

That dream has nothing to do with what the Church of Scientology is today. The original philosophy has been perverted by people who know best, by others that have seen in this movement a way to enslave and a very profitable activity.

This will happen in the independent field as well if it is not already happening. Today we are left with nothing more than Reversed $cientology also called “The Incorporated Church of $cientology”. A business activity dealing with lies, with enslavement and psychological violence. A group who abuses justice and protects criminals.

I get pretty puzzled when I hear people calling each other Squirrels.

Who are really the squirrels?

Let’s look at the original definitions: from LRH’s Tech Dictionary;

‘SQUIRREL,

1. A squirrel is doing something entirely different. He doesn’t understand any of the principles so he makes up a bunch of them to fulfill his ignorance and voices them off on a pc and gets no place. (SH Spec 77, 6111C08)

2. Those who engage in actions altering Scn, and off beat practices. (ISE,p.40) -v. to change and invent processes. (HCOB 23 May 69) SQUIRRELLING,

1. It means altering Scn and offbeat practices. It is a bad thing. (HCO PL 14 Feb 65)

2. Squirrelling is not really different processes, it is careless, incomplete, messed up auditing procedure. (HCOB 15 Jan 70 11)’

A Squirrel is somebody who violates the very basics human rights of men. That is a violation of the basics tenets of the original Scientology. A Squirrel is somebody that sees something wrong but does not do anything about it. A Squirrel is somebody that forwards lies, creates antagonisms, works for money or for status, promotes overtly or covertly disconnections, who separates as opposed to unites.

A squirrel is one also who calls others squirrels, and purposely lessens Affinity, Agreements and Communications amongst people, groups or nations…..All the above are violations of the fundamentals and therefore are squirrel activities, no matter how you wish to justify them.

A Squirrel to me is someone who in or out the Church continues to specialize on stopping people from getting better and/or from receiving auditing when he/she wishes. This include making auditing difficult to get and entering arbitrary rules.

You will seldom hear a true Scientologist (very rare to find) calling another a squirrel. He has mastered one of the basic tenets and abilities: to grant others beingness. He works looking at stats on long terms goals. He does not catch the ball to destroy another auditor using one of his complaining PCs. We all had bad sessions, every single one of us auditors, and that does not make us bad auditors.

There are a lot of good people around, but there are also a lot of scared individuals, insecure untrained people who think they know best and what they know best about is how to 3rd party others.

A true bridge to others. Good stats, where with good stats we mean steps toward a saner society, freedom of speech and choice, respect for others, justice and TRUTH, are my way to judge if an activity or people are squirrel or not. It is all part of the fundamentals, and the basics are concepts, not words.

(39:04 minutes) OT VII and OT VIII
(39:57 minutes) LRH: ”Actually I am not mad at anybody. It sort of goes against the grain to have to engage in some sort of warfare in which I have no personal interest. I finally have figured it out that all of these cases , these psychiatric cases and so forth that kept coming our way that all were butchered up it would be a jolly good thing if we put an end to that type of activity, because it would make our work enormously easier. But I am not mad at anybody, now we have an Ethics system and actually I am not very happy with pushing my friends around. There are too many bad hats in the world! And forgive me , forgive me if anyone was pushed around too hard or has had his own rights violated. The real thing we have to guard against is becoming ourselves intolerant to others freedom to believe. We do have a parallel in the early Christians. And the early Christians had a difficult time because they spoke of Human Rights, Love and Spiritual Freedom just as we do…..”

Why interships are so vital for the auditor delivering the Ls.

Written by Admin

Below is a summary of concerns raised by Karen De La Carriere in regard to the lack of proper auditor training for delivery of the Ls in the independent field. IFA / APIS did not provide me with a response and did not address their certification scheme shortcomings in the light of the issues raised below. I want to thank Karen for raising this concern and taking the safety of the PCs at heart.

I strongly believe that auditors who really care about their PCs will undergo the proper training, including internships, studies and drills as described by Karen. The independent field needs to adhere to higher standards.

Auditors who are doing interships on the Ls DO NOT audit paying PCs while undergoing training and until becoming flubless auditors thought the completion of an intership. This is the rule that  the FreeZone/ Independent field has forgotten.

The current situation is that untrained auditors deliver in the FreeZone/ Independent field while PR-ing their business practice with “success stories” and no case gain. On the background are their failed cases with lost jobs , broken families, hopeless and suicidal. On many occasions the PC has not even remotely achieved the EP but is still writing ” success story”. There were instances of   corrupt practices sabotaging the PC ‘s case. Those practices led to botched Ls and/or extended the delivery time cycle for practitioner’s financial profit to four or even ten times beyond the normal Ls delivery cycle. It is unethical for a trainee to use the PC as a “cash cow” , while charging $15 000 , $25 000 or sometimes even $300 000 for one single L . For example the average standardly delivered L12 should take not more than 20 hours delivered in a week.  L11 should be delivered in a week and L10 takes 2-3 weeks. A warning sign of improper processing of L 12 would be if you have received it  in over 4 months period in 130 hours. The Ls are very powerful processing that is meant to be delivered on an intensive daily schedule in order to produce a successful case gain. The pricing for the Ls has to be based on a flat fee for the whole completed cycle.  It is definitely NOT recommended to get one session a week and if your auditor can not accommodate you in his schedule or shortchange you with  advice  that is against your best interest, this should be a warning sign.

December 21, 2011

Karen De La Carriere: ….[name omitted ] ….. “never had any Ls training. He certainly did not have the very complex and unique training of Class X, XI and Class XII. There is an enormous study of LRH CSed folders and special testsn to understand why LRH CSed that way. ” ….[name omitted ] ….” never came anywhere near this section of the training.”

Karen De La Carriere : “ The Ls are like a Ferrari. Most people can drive one up to 100mph but the minute you get into 150 mph, when things so wrong, they go terribly wrong. The Ls are high performance spiritual work that require expert handling by qualified Ls auditors. This requires interneships and not done by reading ‘hat write ups”.”

Karen De La Carriere : “When something goes wrong …either in a high performance vehicle or intense spiritual work ~~ the results can be catastrophic if one does not know how to recover from trouble. Lisa Mcpherson, 3 weeks after L-11 (see the image on the web o…f her proudly displaying her L-11 Cert and smiling) went Type III, taking off her clothes and walking naked on Fort harrison Avenue. This is an example of how badly it can backfire.”

Karen De La Carriere : “What we are discussing is an expanded range, that which can boost you so high spiritually and take you into the lofty heights of heaven can also backfire in the other direction and send you into hell.”

Karen De La Carriere: “ I will never participate in any action that does not guarantee the safety and well being of pcs. Only knowing, training and understanding the length an breadth of the procedures and their remedies can give the results LRH intended for these rundowns.”

Karen De La Carriere : “One example of how Interneships are so vital is that the AUDITING STYLE of Ls auditing is different. You have to un-do all the TRs 1-4 you have ever learned all your life and learn “TR L10 style” It is designed to impact the case differe…ntly. This needs to be drilled and drilled and drilled on video and one has to watch one’ own videos day after day, month after month til one has perfected one’s performance and til it is second nature. There is nothing in the field in current set ups that can even come near approximating Ls training. Each interneship takes MONTHS of 40 hour to 60 hours in the chair of flawless VWD sessions for graduation to be approved. But the pc is the beneficiary and is now in safe hands. The safety and guaranteed stability of the pc is the primary importance here. To hell with any other consideration than the PC and the PC’s benefit.”
