Symbols of Scientology

The building has the cross with a star in the middle. But Scientology really has no ties to Christianity in any way, except some similar ethical and moral standards.

The main logo of Scientology is an "S" with two interlocking triangles. In other symbology, the church uses the symbol of the pyramid, which could be the reference of these two triangles. Note that Hubbards religious beginnings were with the Thelemic religion of Aleister Crowley, which was rooted in Egyptian mysticism and esoterism. The "S" also could be thought of as a serpent or snake, which would also correlate with Thelemic religion and the worship of Satan.

Many Scientology logos use a combination of symbols. Here you see the cross, the interlocked triangles with the "S", and the segmented pyramid, all used together.

Black Magic with Aleister Crowley

Hubbard and Crowley were not only friends, but fellow practictioners of Crowley's brand of Satanism, called Thelema. A mix of sex ritual and black magic, Hubbard and Crowley practiced the religion together in the late 1940's and early 1950's, and lived together in the Los Angeles area of California. Coincidentally, Los Angeles was the hub of Scientology.

The Original OT VIII

The Fishman Affidavit, Exhibit OT VIII Part 2
The information that Hubbard shared about being the Antichrist was found in the Fishman Affidavit, a set of court documents submitted by self-professed ex-Scientologist Steven Fishman in 1993 in the federal case, Church of Scientology International v. Fishman and Geertz (Case No. CV 91-6426 (HLH (Tx) United States District Court for the Central District of California).

Quotes by L. Ron Hubbard from the OT VII document in the affidavit:

1. "My mission could be said to fulfill the Biblical promise represented by this brief Antichrist period."
2. "During this period there is a fleeting opportunity for the whole scenario to be effectively derailed, which would make it impossible for the mass Markabian landing (Second Coming) to take place. The Second Coming is designed, among other things, to trigger a rapid series of destructive events."
3. "Jesus was not nearly the sainted figure he’s been made out to be. In addition to being a lover of young boys and men, he was given to uncontrollable bursts of temper and hatred..."
4. "I will soon leave this world only to return and complete my mission with another identity."
5. "I will return not as a religious leader but a political one. That happens to be the requisite beingness for the task at hand."
6. "I will effectively postpone and then halt a series of events designed to make happy slaves of us all." (Christ's rule and reign seen as slavery)
7. "The wins waiting you are like none that you have ever experienced, not just for you, but for your children, your children’s children and the whole of mankind, if we succeed. And we will." (be successful in stopping the Second Coming of Christ)

Here is a chart of the Scientology levels of mastery. You can see level Operating Thetan 8 or OT VIII - the highest level - at the top right.

Penthouse Interview with L. Ron Hubbard Jr.

Hubbard Jr. defected from the Church of Scientology in 1959. He stated in a 1983 interview with Penthouse Magazine, that his father always believed he was the Antichrist, which was also the belief of his friend and predecessor in black magic, Aleister Crowley.

Hubbard Jr: …Also, I’ve got to complete this by saying that he [L. Ron Hubbard] thought of himself as the Beast 666 incarnate.

Penthouse: The devil?

Hubbard Jr: Yes. The Antichrist. Aleister Crowley thought of himself as such. And when Crowley died in 1947, my father then decided that he should wear the cloak of the beast and become the most powerful being in the universe.

Penthouse: You were sixteen years old at that time. What did you believe in?

Hubbard Jr: I believed in Satanism. There was no other religion in the house! Scientology and black magic. What a lot of people don’t realize is that Scientology is black magic that is just spread out over a long time period. To perform black magic generally takes a few hours or, at most, a few weeks. But in Scientology it’s stretched out over a lifetime, and so you don’t see it. Black magic is the inner core of Scientology – and it is probably the only part of Scientology that really works.

Hubbard Jr: Also, you’ve got to realize that my father did not worship Satan. He thought he was Satan. He was one with Satan. He had a direct pipeline of communication and power with him. My father wouldn’t have worshiped anything. I mean, when you think you’re the most powerful being in the universe, you have no respect for anything, let alone worship.”

Heidi Forrester Sex Incident

In the book L. Ron Hubbard: Messiah or Madman by Bent Corydon, an affidavit is given by a woman using the pseudonym "Heidi Forrester". She testifies that she was raped by L. Ron Hubbard. Here is her testimony:

In late 1975, I was told to report to the Hubbard Communications office. The senior officer there at the time, informed me that I was to report to the Fifield Manor and go to the seventh floor. She gave me no other information. I did this without knowing why I was going. At the Manor, I was directed to the elevator and went to the seventh floor. The entire floor was elaborately furnished to the point of suffocation. An S.O. (Sea-Org) member appeared and showed me to a door that was partly open.

I went into a very large living room with heavy curtains, pile carpet, overstuffed chairs and clean to the point of obsession. Sitting on one of the chairs, drinking what looked like sherry, was a heavy-set older man. He had reddish grey hair, slightly long in the back. He was wearing a white shirt, black pants, black tie, and black shoes, highly polished. He didn't say a word and slowly got up, motioned me to allow him into the next room. I didn't know if it was Hubbard, and wondered if I was to have either an auditing session or an interview. I followed him.

I found myself in a lavish bedroom. This still didn't worry me as sometimes interviews and sessions were held in bedrooms at the HolIywood Inn for staff. There was small table set up with an E-meter on it and again I thought about a session. Without a word he suddenly began to undress me. I was repelled by him. I did not want to sleep with him. Yet, I felt really chilled and cold to the bone at that moment. I acutely sensed real fear and danger in the room. In an instant I realized the calculated power coming from this person. If I resisted I knew that my punishment would be extreme. His eyes were so blank, no emotion, no interaction, nothing was there. I made the decision to not resist no matter what happened. I realized it would be a bad mistake for me to do so. He seemed to be completely divorced from reality. He was so strange that I realized that if I provoked him he could be extremely dangerous.

I let him undress me without resisting. I was totally unprepared for what happened next. He lay on top of me. As far as I can tell he had no erection. However, using his hand in some way he managed to get his penis inside me. Then for the next hour he did absolutely nothing at all. I mean nothing! After the first twenty-five minutes I became about as frightened as I have ever been in my life. I felt as if in some perverse way he was telling me that he hated me as a female. I then began to feel that my mind was being ripped away from me by force. That was the worst of all. I really felt he "coveted" an aspect of my personality and he wanted it. This was weird, total control on a level I could not fathom at that time. I had no idea what was happening.

After half an hour I really thought I was going crazy. I couldn't move my body from underneath him, and I could feel he still had no erection. He wouldn't look at me, but instead kept his head averted to the side and just gazed into space. I had to discipline myself to keep from screaming because I felt I was having a nervous breakdown. Then I got the terrible thought that he was dead. He was hardly breathing. Then I thought he would kill me too. My thoughts became very morbid. After an hour he got up and walked out.

I just lay there for ten minutes. Then mechanically I got dressed. Instantly after that I began crying hysterically. I cried and cried and cried. I wasn't afraid of becoming pregnant. I was so afraid of whatever had been going on in this man's head. Finally when I couldn't cry anymore, I went downstairs and took a bus back to ASHO. [American St. Hill Organization] I didn't say a word to anyone.
