Thank you for starting this thread. OK at the risk of sounding very naive, what is this with the million/billion year contracts? Is this something that only the Sea Org people do, or are all members of the Church signing these contracts?

You said that at the lower levels people were still being helped, do you think this is still true?

The Ron-is-God thing, so Ron incarnated as a human to do what, show how to get rid of theatans? Or did Ron just realize he was God?

It's only for the very elite, public signs no contracts, ordinary staff is usually on a few years contract. Time served in exchange for auditing and training.

Yes. There are several scientology courses that are worth doing. (if one could only avoid the church in the process!) The communication course, study tech, knowing the tone scale are all useful. Life repair, some of the lower grades processing, and the first 10-50 hours or so of dianetics will pretty much handle what's bugging a person.

I don't recall Ron ever claiming to be God, or even a god. His more fanatic followers AKA 'Rondroids', make such claims to each other in whispers...
