Usually they do not promote their travel plans. But here we have the next few months -- offered up in the hope as a sales pitch like this is Royal Caribbean or Carnival. But all is not quite like the real cruise lines offer when they say "explore the islands." It starts out sort of "normal" looking in the first 3 weeks of July -- probably after they get an infusion of funds from the Maiden Voyage in June, so they can afford fuel. And perhaps because Mr. Miscavige likes to extend his stay from the annual Maiden Voyage vacation into an extended scuba diving experience. But three weeks, … [Read more...]
The Real Story of the Freewinds
With the recent outbreak of measles on the Scientology ship, Freewinds, Leah and I thought it important to highlight some points that are the real story about this ship. With the exception of Newsweek, generally the media is missing the boat. Their focus is on a case of measles rather than the bigger picture of the Freewinds. To directly answer the least important question: Do Scientologists believe in vaccinating? Most Scientologists have little faith in “Wog” (non-scientology) medical care. L. Ron Hubbard believed medical doctors wanted to maintain their monopoly on … [Read more...]
Freewinds Fail Part XXVII
OK, this is top priority for OT VII's and VII's. Get people to watch ScientologyTV! What could possibly be more important than this at the top of the Bridge... Times have NEVER been this exciting. Never. It will blow you away. Really? This is what the head of the top org in scientology is concerned about? Not the fact that they have not even made 5000 OT VIIIs in 30 years of trying? That the pinnacle of scientology is unable to apply the ONLY workable administrative tech on earth and is routinely empty -- they cannot find enough people on the entirety of planet earth to want the … [Read more...]
Race Against Time
Poor old Bob Anderson. He has been being touted as "your C/S for new OT IX and X" since that great pie in the sky was first announced thirty years ago. Now they don't even call him that any more, he is just the "lead" C/S for OT VIII. That is the most underworked position in scientology. He MAY have one person a week auditing away on OT VIII, but you can be sure there are many weeks where this is nobody at all. It's not enough to keep anyone busy for 10 minutes a day, let alone a "lead" one of them. I wonder what his follower C/Ses do all day. You k now he doesn't have anything to … [Read more...]
Big News about OT VIII
Sorry, circumstances have conspired against the Thursday Funnies today, I shall try to prepare them for Saturday, but even that is not a certainty. Meanwhile, some fascinating news from inside the bubble... The big news is or the little stats variety. I am sure scientology would hype this like they hyped Dave's "medal" that has now been disowned by the Colombian Govt. It will fool some bubble dwellers, but for the rest of the world, this is pretty startling. Remember, they have been promising the release of OT IX and X now for more than 20 YEARS. They have been pushing, HARD, to … [Read more...]
Be Inspired!
This is really inspiring... Dont have time to do a real posting today. Just a bit of light entertainment. More hype, that actually says NOTHING.... … [Read more...]
Freewinds Fail
The Freewinds is sinking, unable to stay afloat in a sea of red ink. Despite the fact that scientology screams "massive international expansion" at every opportunity and how they are opening "new churches" at a massive rate, the truth is a very different picture. The Freewinds is the only place on earth (this sector of the galaxy? the entire time/space continuum?) where OT VIII is delivered. It should be bursting at the seams with thousands of scientologists clamoring to do the first "real" OT level if there were people "flooding up the bridge" as they claim and each "ideal org" results … [Read more...]
Freewinds Fail
Every week in the Thursday Funnies we see promotional pieces for the latest Freewinds "seminar" about making money. I usually make some snarky comment about them. Frankly, they have become pretty tiresome. But there is a more important point to be made than pointing out that the Moneywinds is consumed with trying to suck money out of people to the point where they are pretty much full time running seminars designed to teach people how to make money -- so they can then get it from them as most people have run dry and do not have enough money to make it up the bridge. The larger point … [Read more...]
Freewinds Desperation
Things are desperate aboard the Moneywinds it seems. All those spectacular seminars by the world's most voracious "FSM's" do not appear to be doing the trick. Nor the "how to make money" seminars from CO FSSO and her crew who cannot generate enough income to buy the fuel to sail out of port. So, they are trying to get people there with give-aways. It tells you everything you need to know about the state of the "Top of the Bridge" of scientology that they have to try and entice people to get others to arrive -- with a SPECIAL AWARD for OT VIIIs that can be conned into going to the ship to … [Read more...]
Shiny Baubles
Apparently the higher up the scientology "Bridge to Freedom From Your Money" you progress, the more gullible you are to being led around by the nose ring of shiny trinkets. They dangle these little items in front of the sheeple with as much tact as The Publisher's Clearing House. Here is the latest offering -- directed exclusively at OT VIII's. If you re-do all your bottom of the bridge stuff, you will be awarded a "pin" that announces to one and all "Get Ready for OT IX and X" (just to be a nit-picker, why doesn't it say "I am Ready for OT IX and X"? Because undoubtedly the … [Read more...]
