Data and Signup Form 


Filling in the form below subscribes you to a list where you will be sent weekly part of a Scientology book, writing or lecture. You will be able to comment on it and comments will be sent to you if you join the ACE chatline mentioned below. These comments may include matters concerning Scientology as a whole and you are welcome to send in questions concerning Scientology, its history and its application. So in that sense it has become a communication exchange a bit like an old-fashioned telephone exchange. 

You can join the list by filling in the form below.   An email will be sent to you which you have to respond to before you can come on the list and it may be placed in your SPAM or Phish boxes. So check your spam and Phish box if you do not receive anything. The purpose of this mechanism is to prevent some friend or enemy of yours from signing you up to something you do not want. If you do want to come on, check your spam, trash, phish etc. boxes. 

You can see recent emails on this Books Weekly group at the following link:  https://us14.campaign-archive.com/home/?u=440c746be531c54c89bcde96a&id=e81bb154c1

I/we have nothing to do with the Church of Scientology – the founder of this list and present editor, Antony Phillips, was thrown out of that body in March 1983. He has his own home page where you can get some idea of his views at: http://www.antology.info .



At the moment on Saturdays we look at a Scientology book: How to Choose Your People. This was published by Ruth Minshull in 1972. It is a description of the Scientology tone scale. While Ron Hubbard's large book Science of Survival describes the Scientology tone scale "vertically" (in the way the Hubbard Chart of Human Evaluation is laid out) Ruth Mitchell in her popular little book describes it taking a level at a time ("horizontally"). We will be publishing it in chapters so broadly speaking we will take a tone level at a time (every Saturday). It originally was given Scientology's "Issue Authority" but the story (rumour) goes that Ruth Mitchell's books sold very well, which annoyed L. Ron Hubbard and issue authority on all her books was summarily cancelled.

On the first Wednesday of each month we issue "Clearbird Column" by Rolf Dane, the author of Clearbird. On the other Wednesdays there's the possibility of other items appearing.

On Saturdays on or about about 1 June we will be starting another Scientology book published in 1987 in FriScientology (that is to say out of the control of the Church of Scientology) by Erik Townsend entitled Neither Foes nor Loving Friend. It is an explanation of the implications of Scientology's SP and PTS ideas including ways of handling when problems crop up. As usual we will publish a chapter a week and encourage people to comment in question using the ACE facility (see below).
