Interesing justification Greg, my interpretation of your post: Hubbard sounded racist only because that was the common slang in those days and he just didn't know any better.
In regards to Hubbard's "several black friends," who were these friends, and where can we find their words of adoration? Honestly, I'd like to read them. Were these friends members of scientology? If not, why?
As far as the upper-level managment within the church, what is the demographic breakdown? Is there a number that can be prescribed to your generic "amount?" What percentage of executives are African-Americans? To be honest, Greg, every picture I've seen of upper-level management and the sea org look pretty white-bread to me. The demographic profile I've gleaned from the pictures do not appear to be representative of the US nor the world population as a whole.
I am aware that Jesse Prince (an African-American) made it to a high-ranking position within the church. However, he has since left, and claims that racism by church leaders played a large part in his decision to leave. Do you believe he could have felt some racial pressures?
These are just my humble opinions, I look forward to information proving me wrong.
