@@rjw8316 Nah, you're just tapped. Conservatism (and religion) has no place in a modern society. Traditional values are lame and unfounded. There is nothing wrong, immoral, or unnatural about LGBT people, nothing wrong with non-traditional relationships, sex education is good, healthy and has positive effects on the rate of children being abused and getting pregnant, drag is not inherently sexual, and the war on drugs is unethical, unconstitutional, and against the freedoms enshrined in the constitution. The vast majority of recreational drugs are less harmful than alcohol, as evidenced by "Drug Harms in the UK: A multicriteria decision analysis" published in The Lancet by D Nutt. All drugs should be legal for adult recreational consumption, ideally sold in state run dispensaries like liquor in NH. This would END the OD epidemic, end dangerous research chemicals being sold as things that are safe like LSD and cannabis, and end the assaults on our 4th amendment by police during "traffic stops". Fetuses aren't people, and we as a society should be working to make having sex less consequential, not more. There is no such thing as 'god' and all that matters in life is having as good a time as possible, while helping others do the same, loving often and a lot, and learning all you can about the universe through valid education and experimentation. There are six vacant homes for every one homeless person in America, that's so wrong. Homes shouldn't be investments; they should be homes. Capitalism is trash and fully automated luxury gay space communism is the future.
And you know he has no further argument when you hear "and so on". He says that a lot. Because he has little to say. Pathological liar with no talent, or he would have done a bit better than Xenu, the Thetans, the volcano bombs, and so on.
Jon Atack's knowledge of Scientology chronicles is second to none. Great storyteller as well, would love to hear more from him on this channel. For those interested, SurvivingScientlogy (w.

No, I am almost certain Scientology has modified most all of his lectures to give it that deep, thoughtful tone on purpose. I heard it on an interview. He actually talked much higher, and more nasal, they spent time augmenting it for greater effect.

Because he doesn't believe "Mental Illness" exist. Easy to say Scientology doesn't treat something that doesn't exist to begin with. Interesting enough, you can't "Prove" mental illness in the Scientific sense. There isn't a Blood test, or brain scan that proves a certain mental illness. Psychiatry is subjective currently. I hope one day they have some hard physical test.
@@purpledragonfly313 It came about because Hubbard originally wanted Dianetics used as a psychological treatment. After being thoroughly rejected by the field, he got very angry and from that time forward, railed against mental health professionals.
This reminds me of a prolonged Benny Hill skit. Bad hair, bad teeth, uncomfortable leaning on things; rambling on trying to put something together while coming off awkward and a little creepy. I wonder who was emulating who?
A A Ron, keep up the good work! Regarding this “interview” posted, reaching out to The Behavior Panel to assess L. Ron Hubbard’s body language would be fascinating if they took it on! 🧐🤨🤣

@@CourageGraceandKickintheAss agree.. his disdain for psychology & psychiatry probable is a result of being told about ones self you couldn't handle.. so lets make up our own reality.
The very first time I heard about xenu & the psychiatrists, my instant reaction was that a psychiatrist told him something he definately didn't want to hear. And it wasn't that the APA didn't want his technology. It explains everything, and Jon Atacks info that he was bi-polar confirmed it to me. Bi-polar is a psychosis; reality is internally driven. This man is nuts. And he definitely didn't want anyone telling him he was, therefore, "we can fix ourselves."

The vast majority of people with bipolar disorder (like me) don't suffer from persistent delusions or psychosis. When you have an episode the delusions you develop tend to be different each time and don't necessarily carry over between manic episodes. Hubbard must really have been something special to be able to convince other people that his delusional rambling were true, if he was actually bipolar it must have been a hindrance as much as an asset. People can be batshit insane even without having a diagnosable mental illness, the mental illness just makes it more obvious to everyone else.
L Ron was Schizophrenic and had been institutionalize previously in life. He was mistreated, so his hatred of psychology made sense. Back then it was in its infancy. He was wrong but it’s understandable why he felt the way he did
Same thing regarding the tax collectors in the xenu story. It's soooo obvious that he's projecting his own frustration with the irs into his little fairytale lol

Interesting that a marginally successful Sci-Fi author was the founder of scientology, just saying. I never saw this interview before, well done A A Ron, and hoping your Christmas was enjoyable!! Looking forward to 2023
Was he not quoted as saying " why write for a penny-a-word ( which is what he actually got paid, hence, why there is so many books) , when, if you want to make serious money, you could start off a religion?"
He was only a successful writer after Scientology started buying his books. He's the worst writer ever. I read one of his books. It was the rambling thoughts of the world's most uninteresting psychopath.
@@andrea6421 Mike Rinder says LRH is a good story teller. What I find more interesting is he tell stories and people buy them. Never checking the facts. Although, at that time facts were harder to find.
i know, gonna break our hands gettin the money out of our pockets to pay for a course. he says here that he doesn't make any money off of Scifientology, so, he pays his staff zero, & charges everyone for every course itemized like a hospital bill.
"Help the able. Make the able more able" Gee, how kindhearted and giving of you! Why bother with the hurting and downtrodden who find themselves in situations where they are unable.
Throughout this, I’m going, huh, huh, huh? He doesn’t answer any questions, and he’s not making any sense to me at all. He’s the madman and the interviewer is a zombie. And I guess I’m just a regular human! 😂
@@DawnDavidson 20 x "being", 2 x "beingness" 74 x "man", 4 x "men" 70 x "I". 13 x "me" 59 x "they/them" 1 x "I am here to cure the able, ask for no money, have visited over 9000 indigenous tribes including women (I paid), I have the biggest micro-penis (in this room), I invented rock'n'roll, taught Elvis to eat cake, I am a drag queen they call Lafayette" _(or maybe 2, difficult to say with body language)_
Whenever I see him speak his lips reminds me of the beak of the scientist that made Sally in the Nightmare Before Christmas. How can he say so much and say nothing the same time.
LRH "slept with bandits in Mongolia and hunted with Pygmies in the Philippines"? Pygmies are in Africa, not the Philippines. I hope I am not being unduly cynical, but I get the distinct impression that Mr. Hubbard is full of shit. I admire his ability to keep a straight face and not giggle.
They should never show this to non scientologists no one this dull and whacked out the skull can be responsible for saving the planet 😂😂 I damn near died just watching that we needed Aaron's jokes to save us
When he starts talking about psychiatry and psychology, Hubbard reminds me so much of a young earth creationist - it’s a very tidy conspiracy theory, things are blamed on a 19th century founder, and the experts don’t really know what they’re talking about. Fascinating to hear the parallels.
Psychiatry is pseudoscience, and it’s actually quite similar to Scientology. Mental illnesses are diagnosed through personality tests. No one is tested for neuro-chemical imbalances. Psychiatry is like firing a gun in the dark, and the mechanism behind some of the medications is sickening. Respiradol blocks testosterone. How is that going to help a young man’s mental health? And none of these things address the root cause, which many times is street drugs, which affect the very same neurotransmitters and neuroreceptors that the psychotropic drugs do, and are used the exact same way, to mask the symptoms. Scientism and Scientology aren’t really that different. Both religions believe in aliens too. Long story short, man doesn’t know everything, and not everything that’s labeled science is true.
This man took eastern philosophical ideas and practices which westerners were, by and large, unaware of at the time and rebranded them as Scientology. There’s a twinge of self-awareness in him. All of us are complex characters. This man may be 99% a con man but some part of him longed to help other people. He was just so profoundly wrapped up in his own narcism that Scientology is the result. A great warning story. Thank you Aaron.
As screwed up as we know this is you can kind of see what Mike talks about when he says Hubbard had a surface level charm. Even though he's talking absolute shit you still want to see where he goes next.
He’s so creepy, I can’t watch much of this. The eternal question: why were people attracted to such a slimy person? He much have come off differently in real life.
I have seen this interview maybe 70 times when I first joined l got a copy of dianetics, the vhs accompanying dianetics , a new slant on life and this as a vhs around 2000. Then over a few years got everything dianetics and scientology related did courses.. now i just think one thing.. how did I buy into this and why did I waste so much time effort and money
I have always wondered how ANYONE, let alone the tens of hundreds of people that do, could ever think that this person is someone to be looked up to and emulated. Whenever I have seen a picture or a video of him, my impression, both immediately and all the way through has always been, this guy is a doofus, why would anyone think him to be anything else? I just really don't get it. I don't see intelligence or charisma or logical thought or anything else to recommend him for anything but what he is: a charlatan and a writer of fantasies.
Me too. It’s insanely boring and tortuous to watch though. I’m gonna just skip on through try to get through it the best I can. 🥱 Crazy how people paid all kinds of money to listen to hours of his lectures. What a borefest.
No wonder why it's all one big circle jerk! WOW! I actually could not finish watching it, so I muted it and let it play for Aaron! Thanks for all you do, you are appreciated! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family! Hugs from Nebraska

Was he not quoted as saying " why write for a penny-a-word ( which is what he actually got paid, hence, why there is so many books) , when, if you want to make serious money, you could start off a religion?"
He was only a successful writer after Scientology started buying his books. He's the worst writer ever. I read one of his books. It was the rambling thoughts of the world's most uninteresting psychopath.
I joined the church after becoming a member of AA!!!! Thank you Ron!!
Interesting he lies and avoids. He would have made a good politician!
I agree! I was gonna say he’s a good talker!
@@andrea6421 Mike Rinder says LRH is a good story teller. What I find more interesting is he tell stories and people buy them. Never checking the facts. Although, at that time facts were harder to find.
Hahaha I was thinking EXACTLY the same thing, how did he never run for president lol
👍😂😂😂
The Grandfather of grifting.... LRH invented The Grift
Insane is insane. Brain is brain. A being is a being. Wow!!! Such intelligence. 😝🤪😜🤪
i know, gonna break our hands gettin the money out of our pockets to pay for a course.
he says here that he doesn't make any money off of Scifientology,
so, he pays his staff zero, & charges everyone for every course itemized like a hospital bill.
Man is man, no time for women
My friend heard that and busted out Cypress Hill. Which we both hate but - when a door opens and all that!
I can't imagine being his SO and having to be close to that mouth.
Love the poppy flowers in the background. Nothing says we love opium or morphine or heroin like poppy.
"Help the able. Make the able more able" Gee, how kindhearted and giving of you! Why bother with the hurting and downtrodden who find themselves in situations where they are unable.
Ayn Rand but make it a religion. I'm always surprised at the idea that people got into scientology to help others.
An able salesman selects for those who can afford the product he wishes to sell them. The tons of poor need not apply.
The able means those with the able-lity to keep working, earning money, and giving it to Scientology, I must presume.
Because they're out of cash.
I know this is from the 1960s, but even then he looked like a lying used car salesman
😂
"OH YES!. in fact...."
"and so on.."
"and so-forth"
“Life after death is life after death…it’s too complicated to explain”. His brilliance knew no bounds!😂
When he's really laying it on thick he touches his face with his hands. A clear tell.
Throughout this, I’m going, huh, huh, huh? He doesn’t answer any questions, and he’s not making any sense to me at all. He’s the madman and the interviewer is a zombie. And I guess I’m just a regular human! 😂
He talks about taking math at university and then goes on about common denominator. 4th grade math.
Fantastic! Thank you so much 💞💕
Here's a full occurrence count of the following two phrases by L.Ron Hubbard in this interview:
"and so on": 20
"and so forth": 31
I noted and agreed= with your comments (and so forth) Gnome--thanks.
Yeah sounds about right.
Hahaha! Thank you! I was wondering that myself!
Now I am wondering about “beingness” and the number of times he says “man”.
@@DawnDavidson
20 x "being", 2 x "beingness"
74 x "man", 4 x "men"
70 x "I". 13 x "me"
59 x "they/them"
1 x "I am here to cure the able, ask for no money, have visited over 9000 indigenous tribes including women (I paid), I have the biggest micro-penis (in this room), I invented rock'n'roll, taught Elvis to eat cake, I am a drag queen they call Lafayette" _(or maybe 2, difficult to say with body language)_
LRH SOUNDS A LOT LIKE MODERN DAY MEGA CHURCH PASTORS
Whenever I see him speak his lips reminds me of the beak of the scientist that made Sally in the Nightmare Before Christmas. How can he say so much and say nothing the same time.
LRH "slept with bandits in Mongolia and hunted with Pygmies in the Philippines"? Pygmies are in Africa, not the Philippines. I hope I am not being unduly cynical, but I get the distinct impression that Mr. Hubbard is full of shit. I admire his ability to keep a straight face and not giggle.
He isn’t giggling, however he does have a shit eating grin on his face for the entire interview!
There are pygmies in the Philippines as well. Called the negritos.
Now it makes sense why anyone questioned about scientology crumples like a tissue in a blazing fire
0:12 "What is Scientology?" A self-help cult.
Lol an oxymoron if ever there was one!!! 🤣🤣🤣
A self-harm cult in disguise.
They should never show this to non scientologists no one this dull and whacked out the skull can be responsible for saving the planet 😂😂 I damn near died just watching that we needed Aaron's jokes to save us
When he starts talking about psychiatry and psychology, Hubbard reminds me so much of a young earth creationist - it’s a very tidy conspiracy theory, things are blamed on a 19th century founder, and the experts don’t really know what they’re talking about. Fascinating to hear the parallels.
Psychiatry is pseudoscience, and it’s actually quite similar to Scientology. Mental illnesses are diagnosed through personality tests. No one is tested for neuro-chemical imbalances. Psychiatry is like firing a gun in the dark, and the mechanism behind some of the medications is sickening. Respiradol blocks testosterone. How is that going to help a young man’s mental health? And none of these things address the root cause, which many times is street drugs, which affect the very same neurotransmitters and neuroreceptors that the psychotropic drugs do, and are used the exact same way, to mask the symptoms. Scientism and Scientology aren’t really that different. Both religions believe in aliens too. Long story short, man doesn’t know everything, and not everything that’s labeled science is true.
@@willwailes9298 that was good for a laugh.

This man took eastern philosophical ideas and practices which westerners were, by and large, unaware of at the time and rebranded them as Scientology. There’s a twinge of self-awareness in him. All of us are complex characters. This man may be 99% a con man but some part of him longed to help other people. He was just so profoundly wrapped up in his own narcism that Scientology is the result. A great warning story. Thank you Aaron.
Well said and 100% agree.
Being a new ager myself, I always thought he took things from that, plus the dogma that keeps people attached to a "church" and blew it into a cult.
Nothing about Dianetics to me seems to suggest much inspiration from yoga, taoism, qigong, or any other eastern spiritual practice.
As screwed up as we know this is you can kind of see what Mike talks about when he says Hubbard had a surface level charm. Even though he's talking absolute shit you still want to see where he goes next.
Wow, he really is full of it!!!!!!🥴😵😣
Did he actually believe everything he was saying? I just wonder. 🤔
Yes and no
The problem with these characters is they eventually believe their own bs and that's what destroys them bc it's all made of lies
Tom Cruise believes this guy.
Interesting bit of casual racism at the start when he talks about Asia being degraded.
Does anyone have a connection w the Behavior Panel? I *REALLY* WANT THEM TO ANALYZE THIS INTERVIEW, ALONG W SEVERAL OTHERS HE DID!
No, but I watch the Behavior Panel every week.❤. Sure hope someone contacts them to analyze this!
He was insane.
He’s so creepy, I can’t watch much of this. The eternal question: why were people attracted to such a slimy person? He much have come off differently in real life.
He talks in circles. My favorite! 🙄
The mystery that I want to find the answer to is this...what are the lyrics to the song Aaron's daughter sings while strumming the guitar?
How much do I OWE for watching this "Interview"
Your sanity and/or your life. :D
Only your soul.
What level of the bridge are we consider on after watching this lol
@@rudychavez8248 Depends on who you're asking. But really, we'd be so low that it's below the copyright. :D :D :D
Eleventy 8 hundred million space bucks
You could call Scientology the religion of all religions but you could also call Scientology spaghetti. It doesn't mean that either of them are true
I have seen this interview maybe 70 times when I first joined l got a copy of dianetics, the vhs accompanying dianetics , a new slant on life and this as a vhs around 2000. Then over a few years got everything dianetics and scientology related did courses.. now i just think one thing.. how did I buy into this and why did I waste so much time effort and money
He talks a lot without saying a whole lot. I can see how a person who is not very grounded might be drawn to his affect of certainty.
He preys of overly idealistic people who are mild mannered but seeking power
A bit like another high up scientologist we know maybe
The easiest way to make money is to start a religion...L Ron Hubbard
Hubbard was such an oddball....🤣😂
This man was insane...not a sane bone in his body...
I have always wondered how ANYONE, let alone the tens of hundreds of people that do, could ever think that this person is someone to be looked up to and emulated. Whenever I have seen a picture or a video of him, my impression, both immediately and all the way through has always been, this guy is a doofus, why would anyone think him to be anything else? I just really don't get it. I don't see intelligence or charisma or logical thought or anything else to recommend him for anything but what he is: a charlatan and a writer of fantasies.
The man was so full of himself, you wait to hear him say, "achtually..."
I would like to know what these celebrities thought this was real. He's boring me to sleep. Reading comments to stay awake. So much bs.
Watching again just to stick it to the little captain miscavige 😂
Me too. It’s insanely boring and tortuous to watch though. I’m gonna just skip on through try to get through it the best I can. 🥱 Crazy how people paid all kinds of money to listen to hours of his lectures. What a borefest.
No wonder why it's all one big circle jerk! WOW! I actually could not finish watching it, so I muted it and let it play for Aaron! Thanks for all you do, you are appreciated! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family! Hugs from Nebraska
He has the same 'icky' mouth n demeanor of John Wayne Gacy?
He talks as if he keeps his teeth tightly clenched. He seems as if he could have been a good ventriloquist.
