Germany’s Office for the Protection of the Constitution as an Instrument for Character Assassination
In addition to manufactured guilt – a tool that does not protect
the constitution but leads instead to the ostracism of innocent people
– there is another factor that favors discrimination. Most fellow
citizens fear not the Scientologists, but, as they frankly admit, the
secret services. It has, after all, become widely understood that you
do not need to be officially declared a target of the OPC's attentions
to be caught in its net. This reputation should make the protectors of
the constitution stop and think – unless it is their deliberate tactic
to create it.
We decided to publish this booklet because we believe that the
decision to place the Church and its parishioners under surveillance is
fundamentally unsound, and that the reasons why it is unsound deserve
examination.
The pro-surveillance forces have energetically circulated much
misinformation about Scientology, while ignoring anything that does not
fit their assumed stereotype. It is doubtful if anyone in the
government has not come in contact with their propaganda. One purpose
of this booklet is to provide reliable information that shows the lack
of factual justification for the measures against Scientology, and so to
dispel the misconceptions that are holding these measures in place.
