Scientology, The Clearwater Bar Association and Judge Greer

Scientology, The Clearwater Bar Association, and Judge Greer

Judge George W. Greer presides over Florida's Sixth Judicial Circuit Court. He is known internationally for the Terri Schindler Schiavo guardianship case. Pat Anderson, former attorney for the Schindlers, characterized Judge Greer's unprecedented rulings as "The Rule of Terri's Case."

The Clearwater Bar Association is delighted with Judge Greer's performance in this particular case. They presented the John U. Bird award to the Pinellas-Pasco Circuit judge on May 15, 2004. This prestigious award, which is the Clearwater bar's highest honor for a judge, was granted to Judge Greer for the way he has handled himself while overseeing the Terri Schiavo case!

Robert Dickinson III, the outgoing president of the Clearwater Bar Association, cited Judge Greer's handling of the Terri Schiavo case in terms of "passing the test":

"Rarely is a person's mettle and faith tested in such a strenuous and public way as this gentleman's has been over the last few years," Robert Dickinson III said. "Rarely do mortals pass the test with such flying colors."

(Quote source: Lawyers laud judge in Schiavo case) [bold emphasis added]

I find these words rather ominous when I reflect on "the test" Judge Greer has been passing—all these years. Judge Greer's consistent practice of upholding Scientology doctrines over and above Florida law is being lauded by the Clearwater Bar Association! The "test" Robert Dickenson III is alluding to is the "test case." The euthanasia test case.

Greer is "passing the test" with flying colors because he is permitting Michael Schiavo to abuse, exploit and neglect his disabled wife in defiance of the Florida statues. And the Clearwater Bar Association cheers.

Scientology attorney Wally Pope—who represented his "church" in the Lisa McPherson case—was the individual selected to bestow this high honor on Judge Greer! Wally cited high ideals, personal character, and judicial competence:

"Yet, in the teeth of all that, he has steadfastly demonstrated exactly what the John U. Bird award was created to honor: high ideals, personal character, judicial competence and service," lawyer Wally Pope said before bestowing the honor.

(Quote source: Lawyers laud judge in Schiavo case) [bold emphasis added]

The "judicial competence" that Judge Greer has exhibited in his handling of the Terri Schiavo case is clearly the kind that ignores evidence and even Florida statutes in order to uphold Scientology doctrine—which requires the deletion of "social contagions" (the disabled) from society. It is no coincidence that a Scientology attorney—who was a lead attorney in the Lisa McPherson case—personally bestowed this award to Judge Greer. Greer's decisions to consistently rule in favor of terminating a disabled person do reflect high ideals—in the sight of Scientology.

Lies to Make Terri Schiavo Fit the Scientology Mold

One of Scientology's major goals is to change society's views about death, dying, and those L. Ron Hubbard considered to be "past the half-way point": the disabled.

Scientologists believe (1) that a disabled person is in such a state due to his or her own failings, (2) the disabled person will deliberately move in the direction of death, and (3) disabled people (Individuals who score low on the emotional tone scale) will also bring death to those around them. (See L. Ron Hubbard's book, Self Analysis, chapter 4)

Scientology teaches that if a person is disabled it is his or her fault. Terri has been falsely represented as being disabled due to self-induced vomiting which supposedly caused a potassium imbalance that resulted in a cardiac arrest. Medical records have disproved these claims, but these "facts" were presented in the court record and are still being promulgated via the media today. The truth is that Terri suffered serious injuries, (including a head and neck injury and numerous broken bones). An exceptionally competent neurologist testified (that Michael Schiavo's attorneys predictably attempted to discredit) stated that Terri's injuries are consistent with strangulation:

Dr. William Hammesfahr, Nobel prize nominee and neurologist, testified that Terri's neck injuries are consistent with only one type of injury: that of strangulation.

(Quote source: State-Funded Agency to Probe Claim of Spousal Abuse in Terri Schiavo Case)

The only person in the apartment with Terri at the time of her collapse was her husband, Michael Schiavo.

Scientology teaches that a disabled person will move in the direction of death. Terri has been illegally denied therapy for over ten years for the purpose of causing her abilities and health to deteriorate. She has also been placed in hospice facilities—and denied any stimulation— rather than in a nursing home. This was done to create the illusion that Terri is moving in the direction of death. According to L. Ron Hubbard's doctrines, a disabled person wants to die. Michael Schiavo never misses an opportunity to state that death is "Terri's wish." This is not true. Terri wants to live so much that she exerts tremendous effort to demonstrate her abilities.

Scientology teaches that disabled persons (Individuals who score low on the tone scale) will also bring death to those around them. Michael is so worried that Terri will bring "death" to him (accusations of attempted murder?) that he refuses to allow her to have speech therapy—or any therapy. Of course Michael's power to keep Terri in a state of disability is contingent upon Judge Greer's continued collusion with the Scientology agenda, which is not in accordance with Florida laws.

The Clearwater Bar Association: Cozy with Scientology

Mike Faehner, who was president-elect of the Clearwater Bar Association in 2001, endorsed the Johnson Blakely Pope Bokor Ruppel & Burns PA. firm:

"In the legal community, they have a good reputation," said Mike Faehner, president-elect of the Clearwater Bar Association. "They do quite a bit of legal educational outreach. They're a solid law firm."

(Quote source: Clearwater firm breaks from standing tradition)

This firm brings in a lot of money by litigating for the "Church" of Scientology:

Their clients include parents involved in a baby swap, a woman who was not allowed to dress after she was arrested for skinny-dipping, the controversial Church of Scientology and developers who have changed the landscape of Clearwater.

(Quote source: Clearwater firm breaks from standing tradition) [bold emphasis added]

It is probable that Scientology attorneys are on the board and/or are officers of the Clearwater Bar Association! Mike Faehner said:

Many Johnson Blakely lawyers have been board members or officers in the association. The firm also sponsors bar activities, he said.

It is becoming increasingly clear that the Clearwater Bar Association is on cozy terms with the "Church" of Scientology. They choose to have their monthly meetings at the Fort Harrison Hotel—Scientology headquarters. (See: Res Ipsa Loquitur) The Clearwater bar gladly endorses firms that litigate for Scientology. They even chose a Scientology attorney to present an award to Judge Greer for "passing the test" in the way he handled the Terri Schiavo case.

Scientology For Euthanasia; Florida Law Against it

Wally Pope represented the "Church" of Scientology in the wrongful death suit filed by the Estate of Lisa McPherson. He fought to enable Scientology to completely get away with dehydrating Lisa McPherson to death. They did not succeed. They settled with the Lisa McPherson Trust!

Judge Greer's rulings have enabled Michael Schiavo (working on behalf of the Scientology agenda) to almost get away with dehydrating Terri Schiavo to death. The only reason this did not happen is because many Americans—once they saw the videos of Terri that Mr. Schindler bravely released to the media—made it known they would not stand for such evil in our society.

It is time to take a stand against this barbarism once again. Disabled citizens of the United States of America (including Terri Schindler Schiavo of Clearwater, Florida) must not be denied therapy and even life itself due to L. Ron Hubbard's disgust over the fact that a decent society takes care of its own:

Society, the bulk of which is bent upon survival, fails or refuses to recognize death or the urge of organisms toward it. Society passes laws against murder and suicide. Society provides hospitals. Society carries such people [the disabled] on its back. And society will not hear of euthanasia or "mercy killing." (Self Analysis by L. Ron Hubbard; pg. 28)

May the Lord Jesus Christ be glorified as his people "hear his voice" concerning this matter and follow him.

LOL--feel for her---but have you read the transcripts of hubbard's directions to his commanders (lots of sea stuff in the administrative staffers levels...ick) whatever, I mean, this guy was REALLY intent in pulling the rich...and sucking it out of those people in a BIG WAY...why sometimes when one completes the program...it is discovered they still have theta T's invading other parts of their bodies and they have to pay to do all the AUDITS all over again...but only the ones who are rich enough seem to have extra invasion of their body parts by the aliens who exploded in the volcano and blew apart, across the world, invading us....

science fiction? nope. Scientology! Course hubbard was into science fiction big time, he just made more money off the scientology movement.

The first parallel between euthanasia in Nazi Germany and euthanasia today is the targetting of the sick, mentally and physically disabled and the elderly.

This becomes obvious when one begins to compare and contrast the language that was used then, and the language that is used in the 21st Century when discussing what is becoming the world's Final Solution against those who are considered to be inferior in some way.


There is a bridge that crosses between the two eras, and that bridge is the language and terminology employed by the followers of L. Ron Hubbard.


There is an universal trend towards the notion that if one is not able to reason then that person is not alive.

This kind of thinking is also at the heart of L. Ron Hubbard's Scientology movement.

The second parallel is that of the language that is employed to describe the people who are considered by the Nazi Party, as well as by Scientologists to be non people who should be eliminated from society.
It was Hitler who had introduced the notion of the alleged superiority of the Aryan race, and anyone who did not measure up was considered as "trash" .
This has been perfected in Florida where a disabled woman is being put on death row because of a court order for her execution. Her crime?
There is no crime because it is her husband who wants her dead.
The difficulty in the Schindler vs Schiavo case is that Michael Schiavo and his lawyers are claiming that Terri is "dead", yet how they define "death" is not the usage of the ordinary man.
The culture of death people who are behind this action are attempting to change the meaning of "death" in the English language.

You know, you Terri supporters are just like stuck records. You repeat the same "points" over and over and over again, ad nauseum. Don't you ever get tired of yourselves? You're up to 6000+ on your main Schiavo thread. 6000 repetitious posts, few that are enlightening, many that are boring. Your's are boring.

You are inferring something.
I can not be deemed a Terri supporter.
Ive done some inference of my own.
The pink elephant in the room is that you're a Scientologist.
And being a scientologist you believe Terri has no value and she should leave her shell.
Why are you afraid to admit you are one ?

I see you're resorting to threats already .............

Good for you !
I hope they don't bother you much.

I've found the secret of eternal life.

Get on a Scientology mailing list and you'll live forever, at least as far as the Letter Registrar is concerned...

What's your case level?

[null and void]

It's THETAN. If you're having trouble pronouncing it, say SATAN with a lisp...

And yes, Scientologists do believe that they, as Thetans, simply go to the nearest maternity ward and pick up a new body.

And yes, based on this belief, getting Terri out of a hopelessly damaged body and into a new healthy one is an act of kindness. (I hadn't thought of this angle, good point!)

[Osage Orange]

Well I guess the "Separation of Church and State" crowd...are protesting, and the ACLU is involved?

Right?

Yeah...right.......

And what have we learned from this contentious exchange? We've learned that flaglady47 can bait Freepers into pointless off topic bickering. As a Scientologist for some thirty years, I am more than familiar with the tactic.

For the uninitiated, a little Scientology PR primer: When someone posts an article, comment, etc., that is negative to the Church of Scientology, the Church has a standard method of combating this. The idea is to get the critics off topic by goading them into back and forth firefights. I am constantly dismayed how well it works. But it does, and it is done by pure intent and design.

I don't necessarily recommend this, but you can check out a news forum of Scn. critics and see a perfect example of what I'm talking about.
