A Cruise – But Not Tom

March 10, 2019 By Mike Rinder 82 Comments

Things may be a bit slow on the blog for the next week.

The Rinder’s, Headley’s and Smith-Levin’s are going on a cruise together starting today. On a real ship ON the crossroads of the world.

The man behind the scenes of this blog who is way smarter than me when it comes to computers and the internet, will be putting up new postings and monitoring the comments While we are crising the high seas. I have prepared posts in advance, at least one of which should keep people commenting for a while.

Depending on the ability to connect to the interwebs while on the cruise, I may chime in every now and then.

Things will be back to normal again after the 18th of March.

Here’s to a Bon Voyage.

    Mike,

    Great picture. My fewer than a thousand words are an attempt to capture the message I see:
    Hubbard’s Fleecewinds vessel is 70 years old and not even worth the scrap metal she contains due to the tons of blue asbestos still inside her. She is the old and sad vessel scientologists go to supposedly ‘expand beyond infinity’ and into spiritual realms unheard of(snark) .. She never travels into deep water, but especially never to a USA port. Maybe she can comfortably handle 300 ‘visitors’ questing for spiritual slavery.

    The Ruby Princess next to the Fleecewinds is 10 years old and valued at 400 millions. She travels the world and puts in anywhere she wishes. She is a fun and stress relieving vessel that roams the ocean freely and can wine and dine 3,600 guests. Her guests debark in far better spirits than those debarking the Fleecewinds.

    The contrast is truly stark.

I see some comments but there is no button to reply to those comments or to make your own new comment. And he has had the same thing up for about 3 or more days. Does anyone know why this is? Is he out of town?

    Forgot to mention this: we just returned from a Caribbean cruise and in Aruba, we were docked RIGHT NEXT TO THE SEA ORG! That date would have been Feb. 4th or 5th, 2019. Oh my, knowing what we all know, what an ominous looking vessel. Felt creeped out just to be near it. The lights were on, there was activity. Our cabbie told us that they dock there and go out and recruit young people from the islands.

      When I was in Los Angeles doing some training I knew a fellow who was quite successful financially but while he was addressing his beetees he avoided parties and public gatherings. He was concerned that someone else’s beetees might jump ship and get on board with him. I didn’t do the OT levels but I remain confident that I’m still Captain of my ship and the passengers are resting comfortably.

          Hello Foolproof – I left Scn soon after attesting to Clear because of the monthly price increases. Lots of people believe in incorporeal conscious entities like angels, ghosts, spirit guides, ascended masters and so on. If I had stayed in Scn it’s speculation on my part if I would have accepted Hubbard’s description of body thetans. I might have given it a try. I ain’t afraid of no ghosts.

    fantastic! You all deserve and get to have fun and quality time together. The greatest revenge is to to show how you and friends are enjoying life freely and fully on that normal sized cruise ship in the above photo. Then again, maybe you are on one of those newer ones that are 47X larger than this 5-decker. Great picture to open this blog with.

    The photo also puts in perspective, for David Miscavige to see, just how tiny and aged his seaorge dingy and religion are compared with the big world of 2019. Except for one problem: He can’t see from his bunker. He is not free. He is not expanding. He has no wife. He has no children. He has no friends. All he has is his bottle and BTs.

      FPjr offered: “He is not free. He is not expanding. He has no wife. He has no children. He has no friends. All he has is his bottle and BTs.”

      Well, he still has hot and cold running servants and his FEARS, which were well-earned. I expect that he also has a boatload of bad Karma stalking him, likely to pounce upon him at any time, IMO sooner than later. In SCUBA training, the experts warned that going below a certain depth was equivalent to drinking a few. Heaven help the diver who thinks his body is above the laws of the physical universe and mixes drinking with lots of seawater. not that I would wish a case of the bends or drowning on the “most ethical being on the planet”®.

      Meanwhile, Rinders, Headleys and smith-Levins: ENJOY your well-deserved vacations. May the subject of scientology never arise to dampen the joy of exploring paradise. If I could, I’d be somewhere near you in our micro-yacht.

    Perhaps while Mike is away some people here might like to engage in some general discussion?

    I will post some recent (brief) thoughts I have had about LRH while I read some comments here in recent posts. Please feel free to comment if you please.

    Seems to me LRH invested every single ounce of his life figuring out how to gouge and steal every penny he could from innocent victims. But it seems that he never planned what he would do with that money. As someone posted recently, he died alone living in a kind of poverty in terrible health with his body pumped full of drugs. Seems to me most anyone in his position with even half a working brain would be living in luxury in a country with no extradition, surrounded by paid professionals to care for him and pleasure him with whatever he wanted. Although … God only knows what it would have taken to pleasure that madman.

    But instead, he died like a pauper and spent his last days rewarded with exactly what he deserved. I think that bears some reflection. LRH got exactly what he deserved out of life. He got the same kind of life someone would get with no money, no friends and no loved ones. Doesn’t that seem incredible to you? It sure does seem that way to me. He died with a huge amount of money. But he died in a state in which most any pauper would die. Is that an example of good Karmic Justice? It just may be. I wonder how the Tiny Fuhrer will die.

      Skyler,

      The fact that Hubbard died the way he did and he never took the money and ran leads me to beleive that, in some capacity, he really did beleive that he was in need of help.

      That said, he was also always after money, but I think he truly recognized that he was mentally damaged. The fact that he was, in essence, a sociopath who was unable to break free of his shortcomings as a man, led to even more mental conflict. Although I’m sure he was a money grubbing con man, IMO he was also a broken soul who really wanted to find a way to help himself (and probably thought “to hell with everyone else”. He likely saw them as sheep/lesser beings who would beleive anything he wrote because he was soooo much better and much more brilliant than everyone else.). Regardless, his methods were obviously flawed, and like most sociopaths and psychopaths, he thought his own consequence higher than anyone else’s. I think that’s why he was so adamant that his methods were superior to anyone else’s.

      I also think his incessant writing was a form of emotional escape- if he kept busy writing, he wouldn’t have to think of all his inner demons. (This was an escapist function for him)

      Unfortunately, his writings and egomania pulled others into his orbit and validated his belief in his own importance. This also gave him the opportunity to fleece them out of their money. He was true to his own delusional thinking regarding his egotistical megalomania.

      Just my take on it.

      Kat

        Thank you kindly for your reply. I think you made a very interesting analysis. I posted that primarily because I’m fairly certain the Tiny Fuhrer (The Little Cabbage) reads this blog every day and I had hoped he would see his future in the way Hubbard died and decide it was time for him to get out of the con game and get some help.

        Your post helped that very much. Explaining that Hubbard was a sociopath who knew he had mental problems and needed help might just help Miss Cabbage understand he needs help too and that when he dies there will be no future for this scam. Everyone IN will breathe a huge sigh of relief and clamor to get OUT and who can blame them?

        Well done Kat.

And this is really amazing from 2 people who haven’t got a clue as to what they are talking about but can post the most inane rubbish and biased opining – their skill in twisting the facts of the case in hand to present their “case” knows no bounds! I mean just look at what they did here – Hubbard obviously wasn’t that worried about his own personal luxury but they will simply ignore that and and bring in some of their “facts” to explain this. Yes, you couldn’t make it up – but they could! OMG! However, perhaps they should be apprised of some facts, as Mike pointed out, that Hubbard’s trailer was quite expensive – at least! Tut, tut – they should do some “research” before vomiting forth!

        Yes, Mary!

        His entire life, probably close to every waking thought is wrapped up in stats, lies, frustration, and nasty plotting. A life of constant cover-ups and looking over his shoulder.

        The peaceful clean fun of a sunny day, surrounded by warm friends who just love you and have your back, children’s giggles… All the more sweeter ..because we’ve lived in the other side… He doesn’t have that and never will.

        When you’re IN, the bonds you have are so much dependent upon the other person’s shoulder against the wheel next to yours, and their mindset in lockstep with yours and LRH. To the degree they later fall away, you pull back and leave them behind as a survival measure to protect your own path to OT.

        I feel a deeper kinship and bond now with all the EXs than I ever truly had with my fellow Scios. When I was in, I wasn’t allowed to love them despite their differences, my support and faith was decreed to be dependent upon their agreement and actions towards “source”.

        Life is now so much easier as I cultivate humanity.

        Happy day to you, sweet lady.

    Have a great time. I would say you all collectively know more about computers than the entire main body of Scientology after watching Aaron Smith’s video about their lame attempt to send him to the Clearwater police.

      Yes, computers are a great thing! One can sit down and mock up a completely made-up story and call Hubbard Lucifer and all that and call it “New OT8”! Or even worse receive this as an April Fool’s joke and believe it! And then to “prove” the validity of such one can believe the dude that “found” the supposedly most confidential document in Scientology history in run-of-the-mill OSA files and wonder “how did that get there? Surely if it was the real OT8 this should not be sitting in office filing cabinets off Hollywood Boulevard? Surely not?”

When buildings get important to us, for God sakes, some of you born revolutionists will you please blow up central headquarters". L Ron Hubbard Lecture 31 Dec 1960
"Personal integrity is knowing what you know. What you know is what you know and to have the courage to know and say what you have observed".- LRH from Personal Integrity

“The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.” - Martin Luther King
