Mr. David Miscavige Chairman of the Board,
Religious Technology Center
Opening Address
In honor of L. Ron Hubbards Birthday 2002
Instead of the usual morning turbulence, they heard a leading government official presenting her vision of how to bring tolerance to her city. In other words, a radio show featuring every one of the precepts of The Way to Happiness read on the air, and discussed in detail, by an Ohio State Representative.
And she didnt stop there.
She next announced: I want to see The Way to Happiness, not only throughout the Greater Cincinnati area, but to set the standard for the entire State of Ohio.
And bearing in mind what first compelled L. Ron Hubbard to write The Way to Happiness American classrooms emptied of the last moral compass they had heres what next happened in Cincinnati:
State Legislators, religious leaders and a US congressman helped launch the Campaign for Tolerance and Respect.
The target?
To distribute one-million copies of The Way to Happiness to children and students at every level, from kindergarten to college.
And as we celebrate tonight, not only is it going up in schools, with posters containing all 21 precepts, its also backed by a $135,000 state government grant to bring in L. Ron Hubbard study technology as well!
So yes, the strategic placement of a single L. Ron Hubbard solution can change the course of a culture.
And under that very heading, lets now take a look at the L. Ron Hubbard answer to global drug abuse.
Since the opening of Narconon Arrowhead, in August, word of what they provide has been moving out in very serious ways, as underscored by this one.
It follows from a recent program to reach the millions with the message that help is possible.
Now, you have to understand, charitable organizations, such as drug rehab centers, arent known for massive advertising budgets. After all, salvaging people from drugs is hardly the big business profit-maker, that drug-pushing cartels are.
Thats why Public Service Announcements are so important. That is, air time donated by networks to promote charitable causes. Typically, stations might run two minutes a day of that kind of content. Consequently, if you do manage to get a public service message placed, you might be fortunate enough to see it air once, every two days.
But when the first message on L. Ron Hubbard drug rehab technology was presented to the worlds largest cable news network, they were also briefed on how that technology saves lives by a Narconon staff member who is a living testament to that fact.
Those CNN executives were so impressed, they put Narconons message on the air, in prime-time regular rotation, for two full months. And that was daily, even twice a day.
Narconon staff members next began contacting other stations across North America. And scores of them likewise followed suit literally from coast to coast.
