                             CONTESTS AND PRIZES


    In Scientology, we have a policy about CONTESTS and PRIZES.

    The surest way to break a lot of hearts is to run  a  contest  in  which
only a
minority get prizes. That is very homo sap.

    In Scientology we never offer minority type prizes.

    Our CONTESTS must be planned so that EVERY ENTRANT gets a prize or the
prize.

    This comes from the nature of Scientology  itself.  Scientology  is  the
only "game"
in the Universe where everybody wins.

    We must mirror this fact and punch it home whenever we can.

    From this various policies develop: Scientology is open to all people.

    In certificates and status the road is open to  all  Scientologists  who
can qualify
level by level.

    On any offering, anybody can have it if he or she qualifies.

    We have lots of certificates and grades.

    There are no exceptions. Anybody has a chance to go up in  certificates,
staff
status and case gain and state of beingness.

    Our posts are something else. Bill's top attainment is his  recovery  of
self. His
attainment is not becoming Joe.

    Our posts we hold in trust as our  appointed  place.  Though  gained  by
ability, posts
are not prizes. They are responsibilities we hold to help.

    Therefore we do not seek each other's posts.

    We respect the other fellow whatever his status and give him  his  right
to win the
biggest prize of all, himself or herself. That prize  is  won  by  dedicated
exact application
of Scientology and full support of our mission in our organizations and  the
public.

    Organized, we can each one win the biggest prize that can  be  offered-a
full recovery of self.

    As a team, helping one  another,  respecting  each  other's  posts,  our
seniors and
juniors on staff, and following our admin and tech procedures, we  keep  the
door open
and make the grade ourselves-the Top can't be reached without help, without
organization, without the policies  that  coordinate  our  actions  and  the
exact technology
we apply.

    So we don't offer minority prizes. We symbolize in every contest an open
door
for case and status  gain  for  all  by  giving  everyone  a  prize  in  any
"contest" we hold.

    And we hold our posts, not as something to be contested for,  but  as  a
competent
teammate in a strong and well coordinated operation in which each  one  does
his job.

    There is no greater game in the Universe than Scientology, for it is the
only game
in which everybody wins. And that places it far above all  other  games  and
makes it the
game of games where everybody gets the ultimate prize of self-and sound
companionship as well.
