Though there has been an "official L. Ron Hubbard biographer" since I first hired him in 1991, there is still no L. Ron Hubbard biography. "LRH biographer" or more often now "The Biographer", Dan Sherman spends his days penning prolix fluffery for David Miscavige to read from a teleprompter at his "international events" and Ideal Org ribbon yankings. Over the span of 25 years, the silver mullet and his team of biographical "researchers", headed by Andy Lenarcic, have gathered an enormous amount of information, photographs and artifacts about the life of L. Ron Hubbard. They have … [Read more...]
The Real State of Scientology, St Louis Style
It's been a year since St Louis org sent out the last edition of their magazine (Clear View) that included recent course and auditing completions. St. Louis "services" many surrounding states, including the eastern half of Missouri. Western Kentucky, Southern Illinois, Iowa, Arkansas. St. Louis itself has a population of nearly 3 million. Here is what they have accomplished in the last year. Donna Williams by the way is a staff member at the org. And the girl at the bottom, Allie Lane, was raised in Scientology. She is the daughter of STL Org Executive Director Chad Lane. Needed to … [Read more...]
Danish Kids in Danger
Something needs to be done about this. Apparently Danish schools believe their children are going to be educated by hearing a lecture from the DSA and watching "An Introduction to Scientology"... This would be like "educating" children about child sex abuse by having them attend a briefing by a representative of NAMBLA. If you are in Denmark, perhaps you can do something about this. Unless these kids are provided a balanced perspective with all the information, this may result in them being lured into scientology sometime in the future. And while we are here, those stats are nothing … [Read more...]

Thursday Funnies
Well, if you're so good at this... How about generating ANY expansion in ANY org ANYWHERE? Kevin Wilson was touted as the person who was taking over Valley Org. That place is deader than a doornail. Why not go there and prove you can accomplish anything? No commissions? Bring a blanket... A picnic basket, friends, family and MOST IMPORTANT -- your credit cards and check books. All of them. The Raiders of the Empty Bank Balance will be part of the double feature. Remember, nothing is free in scientology. Secret location... This is a … [Read more...]
CSN Desperate for Content
Apparently the CSN is short of content to put on the air. If you have ever tried to watch it, you will know this is true. They have about 24 hours of total programming that they repeat over and over. It's almost entirely the same stuff on today as was airing the day it launched. I know many cable stations repeat some programming, usually their hit/important shows. Not everything they broadcast. CSN should have a tag line — “Groundhog Day brought to life.” So, they are asking people to send them free stuff they can air. Sort of like a "Writers of the Future" for film and documentary … [Read more...]
Black PR Around Scientology?
OMG surely not, with the advent of ScientologyTV there is black PR in the air? Your questions answered? I wonder if they will address these: How come we have ideal orgs and they are empty? Why are there no NEW orgs? Why are there no new missions? How come nobody is curious? Where is OT IX and X? Can you show me a mf Clear? If the tech works 100% of the time, where is everyone? Why no new celebs in scientology for 2 decades or more -- what are they doing at CC? Why don't we ever see our OWN governments adopting LRH tech -- how come it's always somewhere we have never heard … [Read more...]
Scientology Fake Photo Shoot
They actually sent this out. Perhaps the most blatant admission ever that their photo ops are staged fake news. No doubt this photo (if they actually got anyone there) will be touted as evidence of how booming things are with “10x the number of graduates at ASHO” or some other blatant lie. What is so amazing is that the participants become willing partners in the deception, almost proud that they are helping to show the world how scientology is expanding. … [Read more...]
Clear on the 1st Dynamic? I Think Not
Our old friend Terra Cognita has provided another thought-provoking essay. Clear on the 1st Dynamic? I Think Not When people weren’t going “Clear” during Scientology auditing, L. Ron Hubbard—or someone within the church; I don’t know who—decided that pre-OT processing only cleared people on the First Dynamic. “Clears” were told that they no longer had their “own reactive mind.” In other words, people who’d been audited on Dianetics and the Grades were now superhuman and self-determined, but still screwed up on their other seven Dynamics. Apparently, seven-eighths of their problems and … [Read more...]
Thursday Funnies on Saturday
Showing the world how it's done... Seriously? The same 6 orgs in Australia since the 1960's -- half of them are "ideal" and the other 3 virtually don't exist. That's how it's done? Curiosity? We didn't think so... Wonder how much goes to the Sheriff's Dept? $5 to the PAL and $100 to Winter Wonderland? For nothing they get to use the Sheriff Dept name... There's no free lunch in scientology Be forewarned, this IS a reg event. This is too... An "intensive" of humanitarians... Now they have half … [Read more...]
