Scientology harassed politicians
[in black clothes like Thelema]
Because we generally assume that the ideology of this organization with our Constitution is not law. In the writings of Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard says that people who are not Scientologists are useless and worthless. The fact that people who are not members of this sect, were inferior. This is also one of our basic picture of people are not compatible. It consists in other writings even fort, in which Hubbard cheered historical events, where people in large-scale killed because they simply useless to society were. All this shows that Hubbard and the Scientology organization a totalitarian world view, which our Constitution is not in line.
Why the Scientology organization also since 1997 by the Federal Constitutional Protection and some country offices of the Authority observed.
Regardless of the fact that there are constitutional questions: This is also an organization that depends on the people mentally, psychologically suppressed. Scientology is a cult, the people financially aussaugt that also therefore dangerous. We Interior Ministers are firmly convinced that no faith community, but rather an economic operation. Allow me to say as a Christian: I am deeply hurt that the organization, based on the exploitation of people, even a cross in front of her bears and abused.
Believe because that such a ban procedures likely to be successful?
That I can tell you from Berlin were not answered. In Berlin, Scientology is only a shadowy existence. Scientology was strong in Hamburg, was strong in Baden-Wuerttemberg, was strong in Bavaria. Here in Berlin, there was a small group of 200 people who live in the city played no role. What changed since the beginning of last year, according to our findings is not sensational has changed.
As was the Scientology organization at the Otto-Suhr-alley a new representative office, which was inaugurated with great Tamtam been, and also of the US-Actor Tom Cruise was visited at night. What has changed since then?
The aggressive road Scientologists advertising has increased. The talk people sometimes intolerable in a way, is what many people have complained. But the Berlin also reacted quite correct. The says simply going to hump me down! This is the Berlin continue to do so, I am sure.
Who we are watching or not, I will not say in public. We now have a different legal situation. There was a justice in Berlin, which we use certain of intelligence resources had been prohibited. And it was a jurisdiction where the judges have indicated that they go even further. Meanwhile, there are for the Federal Organization of Scientology is a decision of the Administrative Court of Cologne in 2004, where the basis of many quotations from Scientology material clearly stating that the observation by the Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution is legitimate.
The verdict is not yet in force. We must soon, the court in Muenster.
Right. I can hardly imagine that the decision of Cologne, Germany together on the material collected is based, from the OVG Munster again collects.
Now there are indications that the Berlin Scientology club massively reinforced and also in the Berlin House of Representatives, the local state parliament also, occurs. What do you know about it?
There are MPs with letters or calls bombed. This is immensely annoying, but it is then too. When we talk about Scientology in the Constitutional Protection Committee, for example, talked, then sat in the auditorium because one or two people, which we all know now, from this organization, just to hear what we say everything. And obviously they turn then later - I have heard of two MPs - with letters or calls to the parliament, to inform them what Scientology allegedly really. These contacts are fairly one-sided.
In a Scientology strategy paper says that one has to “the necessary access roads to the German parliament” and build “the highest levels of the German government”. From this paper, it has subsequently distanced admittedly again. Do you have any evidence that even in the Bundestag by Scientologists “informed”?
I know the paper, I also know of the statement, which then came months later, that this is unauthorized statements acted. I believe not a word of them. I know this from my own area: If something made unauthorized, then hours later am already there and make that clear. I do have assumed that the reference of the house at the Otto-Suhr-Allee has the sense should have the right to collect, as an interest group lobbying here in Berlin. They will also try to letters to the federal parliament to write or call. But I am optimistic that where no parliamentarians on the glue. In the estimation of Scientology, all parties agree.
Can you imagine that the movie Stauffenberg part of a precisely planned Scientology campaign is to be here to get sympathy, as Tom-Cruise-biographer Andrew Morton in his new book claims?
To me the missing information. What Stauffenberg me about the film somewhat astonished, is the reaction of a part of the German media. Since it is on the one hand very critical with Scientology apart, on the other hand, we published nice pictures and harmless little text on the top-Scientologist Tom Cruise, such as his child to walk teaches. In this respect, I see a part of the German media also a certain hypocrisy to the times carefully to formulate.
