THE JUSTICE OF SCIENTOLOGY ITS USE AND PURPOSE
BEING A SCIENTOLOGIST
The reason we have Justice Codes is to have justice. We don't want or
need injustice.
When we have no codes, "justice" can be anything any authority cares to
make it.
We have had too much caprice passing for justice. It is time we had
justice.
Committees of Evidence work. I recall one Tech Director accused of
tampering
with a student. I was told he was about to be disciplined and sacked. I
stopped that
action and had a Committee of Evidence convened. Accurate testimony
revealed the
story false and the Tech Director innocent. Without that Committee he would
have
been mined. I know of other instances where a Committee found the facts
completely
contrary to rumour. Some are guilty, most are innocent. But thereby we have
justice
and our necks aren't out. If a person is to keep the law, he or she must
know what the
law is. And must be protected from viciousness and caprice in the name of
law. If a
person doesn't keep the law knowing well what it is he or she hurts all of
us and should
be handled.
The enturbulence of the society around us is fantastic. There is no just
civil law
left, really. It is that lawless and disorderly condition in the society
about us which
makes it hard for us to work. Shortly we will be even more powerful. That
power must
not be lawless or we will have anarchy and dismay, enough to stop our
growth.
If we have a superior law code and legal system which gives real justice
to people
we will swiftly flow easily over the society and everybody will win.
Where we fail to apply our own administration, technology and justice
procedures
to the society around us (let alone Scientology) we will fail.
There is too much truth in our lives not to cause a social upheaval.
Therefore, let
us have justice and expand into higher order, not plunge the world into
darkness
because our power as a group struck innocent and guilty alike.
A Scientologist must understand his own justice system. Without
understanding
again there will be no justice.
Already the following points need correction in the uninformed person
concerning our justice.
A Committee of Evidence is not a court. It is simply a fact-finding body
with legal
powers, convened to get at the facts and clean up the ARC Breaks caused by
rumour.
When it has the truth of it, then a Convening Authority acts-but only in
exact
accordance with a Justice Code.
Our justice really rehabilitates in the long run. It only disciplines
those who are
hurting others and gives them a way to change so they can eventually win
too-but not
by hurting us.
A Scientologist who fails to use Scientology technology and its
administrative and justice procedures on the world around him will
continue
to be too enturbulated to do his job.
That sounds extreme to anyone.
But if you look it over, you will find that the "power" of the "Society"
and
"State" is pretended and is made from an effort to be powerful where they
actually
lack power. Our situation is quite the reverse. Ours is the power of truth
and we are
capable of power as a group, having power as individuals due to processing
and power
of wisdom due to superior technology.
Therefore when we grant too much beingness to their "power" we are
granting
validity to a falsehood and so it recoils on us.
