Church Snubs Mary Sue Hubbard
May 20, 2005 -- Born in Texas USA, Mary Sue was raised in Houston graduating with a Bachelor of Arts from Texas University. She discovered Dianetics and, giving up a potential career in Petroleum, trained in Dianetics receiving her Auditors Certificate in Wichita, Kansas in 1951. Mary Sue immediately became a staff auditor and began to help Ron as a research auditor.
In 1952, Mary Sue and Ron were married. Mary Sue then traveled with Ron to Phoenix, Arizona to establish the first scientology organization.
Something not generally know is that, among other things, Mary Sue helped Ron to coin the word "Scientology".
During this time, as well as being a mother and running a household, Mary Sue still found time to assisting Ron in his continual research and development of the technology and philosophy of scientology.
Mary Sue was a key figure in the establishment of the first church in Washington in 1955. After spending some time abroad, Mary Sue returned to Washington and in 1958 their first child was born. Mary Sue then assisted in the establishment of the Church's International Headquarters at Saint Hill, UK in 1959.
Mary Sue was known for her constant good sense and devotion to Ron and to Scientology. She earned the trust of the staff and public and it was well known fact that, when Mary Sue took over a duty in an organization it would prosper and be highly successful.
Right up to 1964 Mary Sue assisted Ron closely in his research working tirelessly with the development of the applied philosophy that has given so much to so many people. Even the media, not noted for their kindness to Ron Hubbard or Scientology, never referred to Mary Sue as anything less than "charming".
The Church however, has seemingly set out to obliterate any record of Mary Sue, There has even been rumors that she was pushed out of the church with a mere pittance after the death of her husband and the will changed to exclude her and the family. All mention of her has been deleted from tapes, books and other material and you would be hard put to find any reference to one of the staunch pioneers that paid such an instrumental part in founding scientology. Even her death in 2002 was ignored by the Church and her name was stricken from the International Association of Scientologists (IAS). The question is why What possible motive could there be for covering up and deleting all reference to Mary Sue Hubbard Could it be there were activities behind the scenes surrounding the death of Ron Hubbard the current management wish to keep private
"Well not everyone wants to erase her from their memory", said Michael Moore, President of the IFA (international Freezone Association)
"The Freezone, that area of scientologists who exercise their right to practice their philosophy 'outside' the church, have paid tribute to Mary Sue with a web site
http://marysuehubbard.com honoring her memory and acknowledging the many accomplishments she made to the cause". He
went on, " Even if the Church 'management' would like to forget Mary Sue. Many thousands of Scientologists do not and evidently wish to
acknowledge and pay their respects to a true pioneer of this movement".
