I included this Facebook message in my post yesterday concerning the fact that Captain Miscavige was at Flag on New Year's Eve delivering this briefing. I did not make mention of other significant things she mentioned. A new IAS status -- Patron Diamond Maximus with Honours. What comes next? They're running out of idiotic titles, every new one they come up with sounds more and more like a Monty Python skit. Another Super Bowl ad! Woohoo. They have been SOOOO effective. And the sheeple think they are being seen across the nation "A billion people watch the Super Bowl so that means a … [Read more...]
Where Is David Miscavige?
Of course, he is at Flag. Right where the plaintiff's lawyers said he is in their filing in the Baxter/Guider damages case. Yet Miscavige's attorneys filed papers filled with the usual bluster and feigned incredulity that anyone could be so stupid as to believe David Miscavige is in Florida. This after they used the same line in California when he was trying to avoid service there -- then proclaiming he is in Florida. See the recent blog post at Tony Ortega's site: David Miscavige lives in Florida when he's sued in LA, and in LA when he's sued in Tampa. In their latest rant … [Read more...]
Happy New Year
To all who visit this site, I hope you have a wonderful 2023. Scientology loves to hold "postulate seminars" at this time of year. Well, here is my seminar. Do what you know is right. Be kind to others. Cherish your family and friends. This is the best way I know to attain what you are hoping for in life. In 2023 I will continue to do all I can to end the abuses of scientology. It's shaping up to be a very good year in that regard... We are spending a few days with the Headley's who have come to visit, so things will be a bit slow on the blog and I intend to leave this message … [Read more...]
Safepointing in Mauritius
mm I hope someone gets the word to the Yeshua Fellowship Organization that they are being taken advantage of. You can bet they have no clue that these policemen carrying a banner in a march is "all in the name of clearing our continent!" They have NO IDEA scientology is involved in this at all. Yet the "Advanced Org" in Johannesburg is claiming this as a "major accomplishment." If Miscavige was holding international events, this would be being touted as "full acceptance of LRH tech by law enforcement of an entire African nation" or some such … [Read more...]
Regraded Being
Thursday Funnies
Of course, this week we have a lot of late Xmas or (as someone cleverly put it recently -- R6Mas) announcements and urging people to show up to the orgs for New Years celebrations reg events. Generic Please Come CC has a DJ and Dancing Angels? More implants from the R6 bank according to L. Ron Hubbard Melbourne for Brisbane Because Brisbane can't do it for themselves... You are not mortal BUT, we will sell you your "eternity" P This lady is going to tell you how to get up the Bridge Make a LOT of money, … [Read more...]
Scientology International Events Are No More
David Miscavige used to conduct 5 or 6 "International Events" each year where all scientologists were "briefed" on the version of scientology in the world he wanted everyone to hear. These events were required attendance for scientologists, and staff spent weeks calling public repeatedly to "confirm" their attendance. Traditionally, the annual "New Year's" event was held at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles in the week between Christmas and New Year's Eve and was then sent out to all orgs to be played as their "New Year's Celebration." These events were vitally important to keep … [Read more...]
Flag Christmas J&D Sing Along
Christi Gordon sent me copies of these pages which were created at Flag, Christmas 1976. They are the lyrics for a musical performance that was part of the annual Bosun's party (I wrote about the infamous first Bosun's Party at Flag in 1975 in my book). The lyrics would be considered horrendous "J&D" now -- Hubbard had not yet invented that term which was announced in his Bulletin Jokers and Degraders in February 1977 (maybe he got a report about this performance?). Some of the notable lines: No need to panic, it's just another bomb threat The citizens of Clearwater … [Read more...]

Give Us Your Money for Christmas
Scientology, in the "spirit of Christmas" wants you to give them money for a building in Puerto Rico. "This is our chance to give an incredible Christmas gift..." So typically scientology that "our gift" is for you to hand over your money... Two public people are "hosting" what they call the "Ideal Miracle Event" in Flag's restaurant. The Old Man is spinning in his grave thinking about "FCCI's" doing events in Sea Org buildings. The best bit about this is LRH quote. Such incredible arrogance: "We are the protectors of the real tradition of Christmas..." -- that "real … [Read more...]

Thursday Funnies
Join us lighting the Menorah Why? It's a holiday party And the part they are not saying: they will be pressuring you to join staff and if you won't do that, hand over cash. It's the scientology way -- "Celebrate Christmas with us, it's a time of giving. You give to us." This is a lot of stuff... How come ONLY the orgs that are "next to go ideal" seem to put on these endless events? And why does graduation always feature something other than graduates (spoiler: they don't have any)... The "Christmas Open House" is going to feature "LRH stories" … [Read more...]
The End of The World is Nigh
This is one of those Hubbard statements that is used by registrars and fundraisers to convince people they must hand over their money now. And of course, as you can see, to persuade people to join staff. This is something a lot of cults do -- predict the end of the world to impress upon their followers the urgency of their mission. That Hubbard said this in 1965, announcing just 5 years left to get the job done, is ignored by the sheeple. If Hubbard said it, it must be true. The fact that he was proven SO wrong in his prediction is immaterial. His words are immortal, immutable and … [Read more...]
Some REAL Humanitarians
Some uplifting news in this season of giving. Our wonderful friends and neighbors, Matt and Tiffany McKeown got together with the other families on their cul-de-sac with the idea they could do something to help others. This is a shot of the gang, with Matt and Tiffany front and center. A couple of days later, Matt asked if Christie and I could drop by for a bit. A contingent of the neighbors were there when we walked in. They proceeded to explain the get-together they had had a few days earlier and that they had collected $570 which had been donated to Child USA. They became aware … [Read more...]
Photos and Videos
I have noted many times that the "humanitarian" and "4D campaigns" engaged in by scientology are simply photo and video opportunities that are then used for fundraising pitches. It's a repeated pattern that permeates all aspects of scientology. Staged events for video footage. Even inside the orgs we have routinely seen announcements for people to "come on course because SMP will be here filming," or "we need people to gather on the street in front of the org for an SMP shoot." But the Volunteer Ministers/Drug Free World/Youth For Human Rights/Way to Happiness activities are the ultimate … [Read more...]
