Bryan Seymour's Channel 7 News Story, with footage of David Miscavige rehearsing Tony already has this on his site, but I wanted to include some other observations. Bryan told me they also blocked another national TV show (I assume it was Steve Cannane) and a national newspaper and rolled out some new "balloon tech" with people holding bunches of balloons in front of the media. These people have completely lost grip with reality, these are horrendous footnukes. Imagine spending $15 million to open a building to "flood people up the bridge" (that necessarily must … [Read more...]
There Are Important Things To Read
My posting this morning is really a lighthearted piece of fluff that has little bearing on anything important. However, there are two other stories that anyone interested in this blog should read. They are actually important. First, go to Tony Ortega's blog and read his very well put together piece about Jillian Schlesinger. A remarkable young woman who walked out of the Sea Org at the HGB only weeks ago. And watch the interviews Karen #1 has done with her and posted on her YouTube channel. (Note, there is a second interview video after this one). Second, read the latest article on the … [Read more...]
The Church of Spin
Miscavige sockpuppet, Karin Pinocchio Pouw is at it again. The "church," as they always do, have turned the Shelly Miscavige missing person report into an excuse to launch more of their patented footbullets. With a straight face, they are alleging to the Hollywood Reporter and other media that this is "ill-advised, ludicrous self-promotion"? Say what? Does anyone in the world, other than the most addicted KoolAid drinker, really believe that filing a missing person report is "ill-advised", or better yet "ludicrous self-promotion". It is clear from the media reports that the … [Read more...]
Handling For All The “Entheta”
This is the email being urgently sent around to "handle" the entheta "that comes up in your life" (ie if you have been anywhere near the internet, TV or print media over the last week). The "positioning" game is going full roar. By their very actions the church are PROVING exactly what Leah said. When she asked "Where's Shelly" Tommy Davis told her its "above her fucking pay grade" to even ask and she ended up being sec checked.... For expressing concern over the whereabouts of someone she had known for MANY years. Of course, such a question is only "entheta" if it misses the withholds of … [Read more...]
Scientologists At War
If you have not yet watched this program, go to his blog and watch it. Though somewhat outdated, it is a pretty objective view of the "Independent Scientology world" a year or so ago. Marty and Tony Ortega were both very good. Thoughtful, intelligent and well-informed. Mosey was magnificent -- calm, rational and cogent. Roast Beef Productions crammed a lot into a little time in a well constructed and edited piece that didnt dip into sensationalism but treated this as a serious issue of religious freedom. Of course, the Church of Scientology looked like abject fools and their statements … [Read more...]
Mike Rinder Argues Scientology is a Religion at Trinity College Debate
Here is coverage of Mike Rinder's trip to Ireland to represent Scientology in a debate at Trinity College. The focus of the debate was "Is Scientology a Religion?" For whatever reason the incorporated Church of Scientology declined to send a representative so he went himself to make sure that his religion was represented. Mike Rinder was ideally suited to this debate having served with L Ron Hubbard personally and having been a part of the Scientology religion since an early age. For more information on Mike and his history with the Scientology religion, click here to see his bio - Mike … [Read more...]

Defectors Say Church of Scientology Hides Abuse
By LAURIE GOODSTEINPublished: March 6, 2010CLEARWATER, Fla From the New York Times - click to see original article Raised as Scientologists, Christie King Collbran and her husband, Chris, were recruited as teenagers to work for the elite corps of staff members who keep the Church of Scientology running, known as the Sea Organization, or Sea Org. They signed a contract for a billion years — in keeping with the church’s belief that Scientologists are immortal. They worked seven days a week, often on little sleep, for sporadic paychecks of $50 a week, at most. But after 13 years and growing … [Read more...]
