[...] This is the document that cult official Warren McShane said proved that Xenu is well known and not secret. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Civil Action No. 95B2143 [Sep 1995] RELIGIOUS TECHNOLOGY CENTER, Plaintiff, vs. F.A.C.T.NET, INC., et al., Defendants. [...] THE COURT: Thank you very much. Call your first witness, please. MR. COOLEY: Warren McShane, please. [...] Q When Mr. Hubbard made the discovery in 1967 of what became O.T. III, did he announce it to Scientologists around the world? A Yes, in a recorded message that went out to all Scientologists. Q What did he say? A Well, Mr. Hubbard explained that there was a great catastrophe that occurred 75 million years ago that left this planet a desert and that he had found the way out to undo that. The fact that he even said that not to worry, that the people who caused that great catastrophe were no longer around. And that he had discovered a way to unravel the harmful effects that were done at that time period. Q That has always been broad knowledge? A Of course. Q Has that information ever been confidential that you have just recounted? A No. Q And do the uniforms of the Sea Organization itself reflect that information? A Yes, they do. Q In what way? A Well, the uniforms are designed to reflect the Galactic confederation, which we believe existed many, many years ago. In fact on our hat that we wear have a emblem on it which is published in our technical dictionary. It has a lower wreath with 26 leaves on it and those stand for the 26 planets that existed in this sector of the universe. The star itself that's on the emblem reflects the spirit and we wear those as a symbol of what we stand for, who we are. Q When Mr. Hubbard mentioned in 1967 that this concerned, an event that happened 75 million years ago, was there any concern that this would turn off Scientologists or people because it concerned something that would seem like scientific? A No, not at all. Q Why not? A Because it was an event that occurred that he wanted the public to know about. People always asked questions about what happened to man and how man was created and how this planet was created. And talking about that in the past has always been of interest to many, many people. [...] Q Could you take Exhibit 79 [OT III] and point out to the court by indicating the portions of O.T. III where the secret is? [...]The discussion of the of the volcanoes, the explosions, the Galactic confederation 75 million years ago, and a gentleman by the name Xemu there. Those are not trade secrets. The officers mentioned there are not. [...] Q Now, Exhibit 94 is Ron's Journal 67, a lecture given on 20 September, 1967. Can you tell the court the portion of that you would like to invite the court's attention to? A Certainly. On page 6 I hand wrote in on a page on the bottom there, page 6, the fourth paragraph down from the top of the page it says. "And it's very true that a great catastrophe occurred on this planet and another 75 planets which formed this confederation 75 million years ago, and since that time it has been desert and has been a lot of just a handful to try to push its technology to a to a level where someone might venture forward, penetrate the catastrophe and undo it. Q Does that in any way reveal the secrets of O.T. III? A Absolutely not. [...] Q Now, I recited some of the story of Xemu and the body Thetans from memory of newspaper articles in my opening statements. Is it your testimony that none of that is part of the trade secret that you are seeking to protect here? A When you referred to Xemu 75 million years ago, the volcanoes, that's not the trade secret. Q And body of Thetans and so forth? A Right. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Mr. McShane did say part of the material is indeed secret: The fact that we are all aliens, kidnapped from our home planets, brought here and brainwashed by Xenu, that each of us are infested with more brainwashed alien souls, hundreds of them, that all the brainwashing has affected us to the extent that we don't realize we are godlike beings with power over matter, energy, space and time, deluded us into thinking we are mortal, need to menstruate, need to die, need to pay U.S. Taxes[1], and that only the thriving cult of greed and power knows how to remove the infestation through telepathic exorcism, and reverse the brainwashing, finally putting us back into our true, immortal, godlike state. -Mike Censored by Scientology [1] Check the "Assists" lecture which says U.S.Taxes and those other things exist because they are part of the mental brainwashing implant Xenu gave us all.
