One of our regular readers stopped by the Austin Org yesterday, since he was town for the day. Here is his report: There was an unstaffed table out front under their awning (their façade is back a few feet from the street), with some free movie tickets, free personality tickets, and brochures sitting under rocks so they wouldn’t blow away. They looked like they had been there awhile, a bit wrinkled. There were a couple of older posters in the windows, one for OCA. I spoke with Barbara McFadyen who has been in for decades. She is apparently an OT VIII who appears to … [Read more...]
The CSW or How to Never Get a Day Off
Saturday is Terra Cognita day. Yay! RB on Friday and TC on Saturday are a virtual weekend for me. The CSW or How to Never Get a Day Off In his HCOPL of 4 September 1959, Completed Staff Work (C.S.W.)—How to Get Approval of Actions and Projects, The Most Important Piece of Your Hat, LRH introduced a piece of policy from his days in the military to “reduce dev-t and increase speed of action.” Developed traffic: work that juniors put on seniors’ lines that add time and effort to the exec’s busy schedules. Little is more important to Scientology personnel than speed-of- … [Read more...]
Regraded Being
Thursday Funnies
This is an Ideal Org Event They rounded up all their 20 public and staff... Epic... No doubt Clive Rabies has a whole lot of new news. Not. Oh, the glorious prose... Well, a few words that sort of rhyme about being hung up on. He is back again... Seems like they only have one guy in Columbus Imagine a drug free planet... Somehow Trout Run does not really factor into this This is what it takes? A few old white people in togas Only minorities need apply? How weird is this? The almost … [Read more...]
Another Big Question on Planetary Clearing
Last week I posed a question -- why doesn't scientology use some of its billions to incentivize becoming an auditor in pursuit of clearing the planet . One of our eagle-eyed readers was prompted to pose the question -- how about making the books and lectures cheaper and more accessible? Hubbard tells his followers that for every 35 books in the hands of the public it will make one scientologist. In today's world -- ALL his books and all the lectures could be put on digital media for a few dollars. They are willing to do it with Hubbards fiction as you can see below. The technology … [Read more...]
OMFG
And this is their write-up. Just sad on so many levels. Not the least of which is that the IAS is so proud of this they turned it into a promo piece so everyone could share this amazing success. OMG we just did Patron with Honours. Back story: applied for a loan, loan disapproved, banker says after a couple of impossible solutions, by the way there is a credit card on file here from a long time ago that's never been activated for the exact amount you are asking for. I had no idea I even had this card. If I get a card like this I usually bin it. We don't use CCs. To make the cycle happen … [Read more...]
Ideal Org News
Remember all the promotion that "Tampa is going double St Hill size"? They pushed this heavily for a LONG time. Well, apparently they are going backwards -- they are not even SINGLE St Hill size... Still need 38 more staff. This is one of the very first ideal orgs. They have a staff composed mostly of Flag public family members. A lot of the public they service are the rejects that Flag will not allow in their buildings and the children of Flag public. Q: If Tampa Org cannot make it to St Hill size after 12+ years, in a massive building in the ONLY area of Tampa that has … [Read more...]
Marty Rathbun’s Meltdown
The spiders on Marty's walls are getting larger and more active and he appears to be increasingly more concerned that he has to explain his hallucinations to the world. I have tended to ignore pretty much everything he has said, and I could care less what he says about me personally (all anyone need do is go back and look at many of his laudatory comments about me to see that both versions of me that he preached about cannot be true). But I do not appreciate him taking aim at people who have suffered harm at the hands of scientology and calling them liars. Especially when they have … [Read more...]
Scientology’s Code of Honor
It's Saturday, must be time for Terra! Scientology’s Code of Honor A code of honor sounds like a good thing to carry around in a wallet; a concise set of moral guidelines; principles on which to build a solid foundation. And yet...not all codes are equal. Some justify acts of unethical behavior in individuals. Some justify unethical conduct by organizations. Let’s see how L. Ron Hubbard’s Code of Honor stacks up. (Having just read Marty Rathbun’s latest diatribe, I couldn’t help but think how parts of this code might relate to him.) “Never desert a comrade in need, in dan … [Read more...]
