More evidence that the pretense of scientology is coming unglued. Stevens Creek is an “ideal org”. It has been since 2005 (Miscavige “rededictaed” it in 2012 because they put new videos in the lobby and they try to pretend it’s only been ideal since 2012). There are three other ideal orgs within 50 miles. They should be well on their way to Clearing the entire Bay Area by now. Add to that the constant hype about the huge “4th dynamic campaigns” that are “salvaging the world” from the ravages of drugs, psychiatry and human rights violations and you can see the hype laid bare. They are … [Read more...]
Scientology Staff Headhunter Bonus
This is a new one on me -- and also a reflection of just how desperate things have become inside the "ideal orgs." Why not offer the person who joins staff the $500? It will be the last money they will get from scientology, and they will need it... Instead they are giving money to anyone who can offer someone ELSE up to join staff (presumably they are too smart to do so themselves). "Hey, if you volunteer someone else for this suicide mission we will pay YOU good money." They used to give commissions for selling books and getting money in. Now they are doing it for getting staff … [Read more...]
Give Ireland Back to the Irish
Somehow, the ONLY people who seem to be in the Dublin "ideal org" are from other countries. Now I will freely admit that I love to visit Ireland. It is truly a magical country and the people are wonderful. But why did Miscavige need to plonk an ideal down there when all there has ever been in Ireland is a bankrupt mission? And as the months go by, it is proving by its OWN promotion that it cannot get the Irish to come near its 10 million dollar vanity project. It seems the only people participating in services there are those who have been pilfered from other "ideal" orgs around the … [Read more...]
327 MILLION
This is a VERY good question.... They just throw out the horrendous reality that they have to get 327 million people to Clear. Even though the vast majority of ideal orgs are in the US, those ideal orgs combined do not produce 10 Clears a week. Even if they produced 100, or even 1,000 a week (they would be going psycho if that ever happened) that is still only 50,000 in a year. The population of the US is increasing by 3 million per year. They are falling behind by 3 million every year, even though they keep opening "ideal orgs". The fact is these orgs are NOT increasing the … [Read more...]
More Ideal Org Fail Proof
The Colorado Rockies parking lot that doubles as an "ideal" scientology org in Denver has just sent out an exclamation-laced update announcing the amazing news that they had 19 people on service IN A MONTH (July)! And you can bet most of them were on "Basics" courses, Student Hat and Purif. Remember, this "ideal" org, like all the others, is supposed to accommodate 200 students IN THE ACADEMY and has 40 auditing rooms and is supposed to be servicing 300 - 500 people in Division 6 each week. But more than 6 YEARS after being announced as "ideal", they have seen so few people (other … [Read more...]
St. Louis Follow Up
This information was provided by one of our readers who has familiarity with the situation in St. Louis and is a follow up to the earlier post The Real State of Scientology, St Louis Style. Church of Scientology Missouri owns a building at 6901 Delmar in University City. It is approximately 15,000 sq.ft. on three floors with parking for about 50 cars. They have a mortgage of about $900,000 on that building and have had the mortgage, as far as I know, during the entire decade of bankrupting members for the "Ideal Org" -- the new building they purchased in 2007. I … [Read more...]
Auckland Ideal Org is Clearing New Zealand For Realz
On January 21, 2017, Auckland was graced by the presence of the Dear Leader himself, yanking his red ribbon in semi-public view (only his dedicated followers are allowed to catch a glimpse of the great man in person) as he swung open the doors to another of his "gifts to the community." 18 months later, they have apparently (and proudly) produced their 8th clear. That's 5 or so per YEAR. That is what passes for "ideal" as far as scientology is concerned. The population of the country is 4.8 million, growing about 200,000 per year. There is no other in the entire nation (even though … [Read more...]
Denver in Distress
You can bet this is not an isolated example, just happens to be something sent to me in the last few days. Apparently things are pretty grim in the Denver "ideal" field. Can you imagine someone who IS disaffected responding to this command to come in to be investigated? But policy says HCO can issue a "summons" -- and policy is NEVER wrong. So, they do the most asinine things and then a whole lot of explaining as to why it didn't work "too much suppression", "the SP's are going wild" etc etc What is most interesting about this is how contradictory it is to the hype they sell … [Read more...]
Scientology’s Monumental International Expansion
This fundraising pitch highlights a truth about scientology they try so hard to avoid. Far from "taking over the planet" and "Clearing Earth", they are in fact going backwards. A whole promotional piece to highlight the wonders and importance of South Korea. There has NEVER been a single mission, let along scientology church in this nation. Just as there has not been in China. 1.5 billion people and not a single mission. Another billion in India and not a single org (half the missions that previously opened there have closed). In fact, in all of Asia and the Indian subcontinent there … [Read more...]
Dublin Ideal Org Fail
More "ideal org" fail. This one is a complete enigma. A single, bankrupt Mission suddenly became an "ideal org". For no good reason. Staff were imported from around the world and Miscavige displayed his ribbon yanking prowess for all to see (well, "all" being scientologists only, who had to be flown in for the occasion to make it look like there were at least a couple of hundred interested enough to pay their respects). Now, reality has set in. Someone alerted me to their Facebook page where they are trying to get people to use their auditorium. This posting has ONE comment … [Read more...]
