Quoting at length from
Scientology-affiliated newspaper the Tampa Bay Informer:
Haiti,
with its 75% unemployment rate, $15-$20.00 average income per week, 70%
illiteracy, 10,000+ homeless in the capital and thousands of children
living on the streets; is visibly a country less blessed than our own.
Taking
matters into their own hands, three of Clearwater’s
Scientology
Volunteer Ministers, Cary Goulston, Mike Campbell and Brad
Kugler—all who have businesses and families to care
for—decided to reach outside their comfort zone and give
relief
to Haiti. After months of fundraising and preparation, they traveled to
Haiti last month to deliver enough Kenaf seeds (a fast growing plant
that is an ideal food and building source) to feed thousands of
Haitians. Equally important are the educational tools the
three
provided to the people of Haiti. These tools were developed by L. Ron
Hubbard (the founder of Scientology) to further assist them in
reversing their unprecedented rate of economic decline.
Cary
Goulston was so inspired by the technology developed by Mr. Hubbard
that he has been studying them intently over the last year. In his own
words, he said, “I had to DO something. I had to
get it out
there. I had to disseminate. I have to help
people.
After discovering this technology, I got so super-charged, it was more
difficult to go back to my ‘real life’ and what I
had been
doing before. Once you know what you learn from the L. Ron
Hubbard books and tapes, there is no other choice than to bring it to
the people and bring it large and loud.”
Originally from
Boston, Cary
Goulston is a hardcore Scientologist who has been in the cult since
1979. He serves the cult as a Field Staff Member (FSM), which means
that he actually receives a commission for every new person he brings
in to begin indoctrination. On the Facebook social networking site,
Goulston has created groups for the purpose of collecting money for
recruitment trips to such countries as Burkina Faso, Ghana, Haiti,
Morocco, and others. At the present time, Goulston's main efforts are
focused on Haiti, which is only an hour's flight south of his Florida
home. With his characteristic semi-literate hyperbole, Goulston floods
his Facebook "friends" with news about his Haiti activities. I will
quote extensively from these insane and mendacious messages.
Hey XXXXXX,
Thanks much. FANTASTIC EXPANSION IS HAPPENING. Thanks for being a part.
I hope to have news for you daily. One big thing happening now is with
Haiti. We are going back there with our Global Pioneers team to deliver
seminars to over 1,500 people. We are going for 1,500 hours of auditing
in one week and hopefully, that many starts. More incredible news. If
you know anyone that can assist, I am trying to get help so we can
leave in 1 1/2 weeks and this may be highlighted at a future Int
Management Event.
Thanks VERY MUCH.
Love,
Cary

FRIENDS,
I would like to introduce and welcome an incredible Power House Pioneer
and thetan, Mr. Claude Reginal Jean. He is a key member of Global
Pioneers for Haiti. Reginald is the reason Haiti is such a success.
Thanks to Reggie, and despite 80% of the country out of work, and no
electricity most of the day, and no food, and many other barriers,
through his work, and help, we have introduced over 5,000 people to
Dianetics, gotten over 500 people started on Self Analysis and
Dianetics Extension Courses and started over 40 new Co-audit groups
since Nov. 2008. Reginald Jean is a true pioneer, and a very on purpose
dedicated Scientologist. Please give a big round of applause to our
friend and leader in Haiti.
Love,
Cary

Goulston has also
created a web site for the "Haiti Dianetics Center."
Well, OK. What's the
evidence that
Goulston is anything more than an overly-enthusiastic do-gooder who
merely wants to help these poor people?
Longtime
anti-Scientology
activist Jeff Jacobsen has done excellent research on the Scientology
organization's gaming of the "R-1 Religious Worker" visa for US
immigration. Scientology has a cadre of "ministers" in a sort of
paramilitary group called the "Sea Organization" or "Sea Org." Sea Org
members sign a "billion-year contract" of service to Scientology, and
for about $40 per week, barracks housing, and meagre meals, perform a
range of duties. Female Sea Org members are coerced into having
abortions; dissident or disaffected Sea Org members are often sent to
Scientology's carceral re-education gulag, the "Rehabilitation Project
Force" (RPF), where they may stay for a period of months or even years.
Jacobsen's
research is well worth examination. Here is the crux of the
issue.
Why
would a religious group need to bring in workers to the United States?
Why would the U.S. set up a special visa for such workers? The Homeland
Security office, in regards to religious workers visas, states that
“The applicant is entering the United States solely to carry
on
the vocation of a minister of that denomination, or, at the request of
the organization, the applicant is entering the United States to work
in a religious vocation or occupation for the denomination or for an
organization affiliated with the denomination, whether in a
professional capacity or not.” .... The U.S. has recently
been
revising the rules for such visas to make them more strict in order to
avoid fraud. Homeland Security states that in 2005 about one-third of
all R-1 applications were fraudulent. .... The Church of Scientology
wrote against making the rules tighter. Glen Stilo, secretary of
Scientology's Flag Services organization in Clearwater, Florida,
explained in a letter that he feared use of the visas will be
restricted to strictly religious duties. “A small percentage
of
our religious order perform work at our retreat that may not be
considered 'religious functions,' such as administrative work unique to
the ministry section of our church, or upkeep of church property and
grounds. However, all of these religious workers have taken lifelong
vows, are performing functions in accordance with our scriptures and
ecclesiastical orders, and are therefore working in accordance with
their religious vocation regardless of the type of work they perform at
CSFSO.” Yes, Scientology apparently needs to bring in
foreigners
to do menial labor. Stilo goes on to complain about many issues
regarding the new rule proposals. One wonders why Scientology couldn't
find laborers from its members who are citizens of the U.S. so they
could avoid all the paperwork and hassle required to bring in overseas
workers.
Jacobsen goes on
extensively with
examples and personal stories of Scientology's epidemic visa fraud,
human trafficking, and human rights abuses in the guise of "religion."
The stories are quite harrowing, highly-detailed, and very
well-documented.
Cary Goulston's plan
to make
Haitians into Scientology "ministers" and grunt-workers is
frighteningly similar to Afro-Caribbean vodou traditions of zombies,
the dead or apparently-dead persons who come to back to "life," but
without speech or free will. They serve for years as laborers to the
priests or sorcerers who have enchanted them.
Let's look again at
that clip from the Tampa
Bay Informer:
After
months of fundraising and preparation, they traveled to Haiti last
month to deliver enough Kenaf
seeds (a fast growing plant that is an
ideal food and building source) to feed thousands of Haitians.
Equally important
are the educational tools the three provided to the people of Haiti.
These tools were developed by L. Ron Hubbard (the founder of
Scientology) to further assist them in reversing their unprecedented
rate of economic decline.
Kenaf, eh? That sounds
delicious. What's kenaf?
U.S. consumers are likely to
find kenaf fiber in carpet
backing and padding, a fiber
mat in automobiles, roofing
felt, fire logs, and cardboard. Copy machine paper
made with kenaf and 30 percent post-consumer waste is also commercially
available in the United States. In Japan, commercial products made from
kenaf include hamburger
wrappers, fast-food containers, and wallpaper. -- US
Department of Agriculture
Traditionally
cultivated for cordage
uses in Africa and Asia, some kenaf is used by small pulp mills
primarily in countries like China, India, and Thailand.... Since the
1960's, there has been increasing interest in kenaf as an annually
renewable source of fiber for the manufacture of newsprint
and other pulp and paper products in the United States and other
countries. ... Meanwhile, kenaf fibers are presently entering the
market in soil-less
potting mixes, animal bedding, oil absorbents, grass and flower mats,
decorative fibers, and insulation.
... Oklahoma research showed that kenaf leaf and petiole (non-stalk)
portions of the plant were readily consumed by lambs... Where kenaf is
grown in home gardens for fiber, the
more tender upper leaves and shoots are sometimes eaten either raw or
cooked. -- Purdue
University, Department of Horticulture
Well, it does appear
that kenaf
COULD be eaten, or at least "the more tender upper leaves and shoots"
could be eaten. Nice of Cary and the boys to bring along a few pounds
of kenaf seeds. "Hey guys, plant this new vegetable. You're going to
love it." Meanwhile, dozens or hundreds of curious people
attend
Goulston's Dianetics session in hopes of finding some way out
of
their poverty and desperation, and some few are groomed into accepting
the idea of coming to the USA to serve as "ministers." To people living
minute-by-minute on the knife-edge of life and death, this might sound
like an attractive offer.
Please visit Jeff
Jacobsen's site
for comprehensive and exceptionally well-documented research on the
Scientology organization's visa fraud and human trafficking activities.
It is shocking that US federal authorities haven't yet cracked down on
the cult, but if enough people bring these issues to their attention,
perhaps they will do something.
