Lamer and Lamer

August 5, 2021 By Mike Rinder 36 Comments

Why do they even put this stuff out? This is so weak it is almost like a parody. Imagine The Onion doing a satire promoting the OT Committee. This is what they might come up with. Why is it so good to join the OT Committee? Because no matter what you are able to do or are interested in doing you can fit right in.... Now isn't that the definition of OT? And the image of what an ideal OT Committee member looks like? It's hard to be sure this isn't a promotional piece for the knitting circle at a retirement community? Or the old ad "I've fallen and I can't get up." And those glasses... … [Read more...]

OT Committee Bloopers

July 24, 2021 By Mike Rinder 19 Comments

Another episode from the never-ending flow of inadvertent truths scientology publishes to the world. The Valley OT Committee is top of the class in this particular endeavor. Take a look at their latest offering. First. Who use a photo of someone shoveling shit unless you are offering flood clean up services? The photo is one thing. The write up hits an entirely new level. This is the son of Kevin Wilson, who runs Sterling Management Systems WISE company. His mother Barbara runs Valley Org. Kevin had announced HE AND HIS WIFE were joining staff during one of the rah-rah … [Read more...]

Hyper Hype Inflation

July 14, 2021 By Mike Rinder 84 Comments

Here is some fascinating insight into the world of "OT." This "OT," according to her estimation, had no confront. Then she got onto OT VII. Apparently even that didn't do it for her either. Knocking on people's doors to fundraise "changed me like nothing else ever would. My confront has skyrocketed as well as my abilities..." So, asking for money finally raised her confront and brought her "skyrocketed" abilities. What does that say about the power of these OT levels? This is SO typically scientology. Whatever it is that you are trying to promote or write a success story about … [Read more...]

Flag OT Committee

April 16, 2020 By Mike Rinder 68 Comments

Some news from the Flag OT Committee. Like to keep up with them every now and then just so there is a record of their zaniness. This first one was obviously from a week or so ago. I found it especially interesting they brought in someone from Italy on the basis they are "booming" and have "highest ever stats going on!" You just cannot get much more out of touch with reality than that. At the peak of the horrific pandemic crisis in Italy they are promoting their highest ever stats... And we also have a list of "BridgeFlow Superstars" that I have put in searchable format for … [Read more...]

Flag OT Committee

March 15, 2020 By Mike Rinder 40 Comments

Just to make a record, every now and then I like to publish the names in searchable form of the clubbed seals that form the Flag OT Committee so if anyone Googles them they might find their names listed here. As a side note, there are lot of former SO members on this list. This is one of the fairly recent weekly commendations that are sent out: The following OT Members are COMMENDED for reporting their stats for W/E 01/30/2020: ALEX ECKELBERRY DIA BORNET KATHY STRASSER RALF HAUG ALICE BELLUCCI DON KARL KATHY WACH RALPH CRISCIONE ALISON OSBORN DONNA BARNA KATHY ZWERS RANDY … [Read more...]

Names of the Flag OT Committee

November 24, 2019 By Mike Rinder 39 Comments

This is a lazy post today, so I can take a day off. I am simply including the latest commendation from the Flag OT Committee which lists all the active members of the Committee. The mos gung-ho clapping seals of the Tampa Bay scientology community. Scientology is trying to promote “I am a scientologist” but it’s hard to find out who they are so now their names (other than seeing them inside the magazine). Their names will now be searchable on google... If you search for CLEARWATER SCIENTOLOGISTS these names should show up. This is the email they sent out:   The following … [Read more...]

Islands of Sanity — In a Sea of Wogs

October 28, 2019 By Mike Rinder 52 Comments

David Miscavige is fond of talking about how his "Ideal Org" program is creating "islands of sanity"... It is prominent in his official hagiography at scientology.org The idea that "OT's" are the ones "changing the planet" and creating "ideal orgs" is a "truth" scientology. It was one of Miscavige's strokes of genius to make the "OT's" responsible for creating ideal orgs. That way, they could not complain that they were not able to do OT IX and X, because Miscavige set an arbitrary that all orgs had to be "ideal" before this could happen (it actually began with all orgs St Hill Size, … [Read more...]

Flag “OT” Committee Minutes Sept 2019

October 5, 2019 By Mike Rinder 65 Comments

I accumulate these and only really include them here so there is a record somewhere of the fakery that embodies the "Top of the Bridge." I've had some of these sitting here for a while, and a few others that were sent to me that I didn't bother to download. Someone sends them to me each week, it's just a lot of reading and highlighting needed. Here is this week's edition, followed by some earlier ones. What is so obvious is their focus on money. Virtually everything they talk about is money, fundraising and commissions. It's also interesting how focused they are on "collecting" the … [Read more...]

Flag OTC Minutes

April 13, 2019 By Mike Rinder 74 Comments

The latest news from the almighty Flag OTC. I highlighted some particularly interesting or bizarre passages. These people exemplify the most deluded bubble-dwellers, I am almost embarrassed for these people reading this stuff. Saving lives by donating to the IAS? Perhaps saving the life of a reg who will not be punished for having downstats. You can get your name on the wall -- but do NOT do anything that gets you in trouble between now and whenever this place opens because your name will not only NOT be on the wall, you will not even be allowed inside the building. What is a … [Read more...]

Flag OTC Minutes

October 6, 2018 By Mike Rinder 83 Comments

One of our regular, if irregular, features:  the often odd, sometimes silly, but always informative and entertaining "minutes" from the Flag OTC. Super Powered Bubbles Champagne and her crew -- supposedly the top tier of the scientology public world -- are poster children for the bubble-think that is endemic in scientology. They literally see what they are told to see. Period. I have highlighted just a few of the most notable points in their latest edition of "pat ourselves on the back" news. 80 public "recently" routed onto Solo NOTs. Wonder how recently? No specifics is always … [Read more...]

Awesome show today ... as usual. It inspired me to resurrect a site I started in 2008 on #Scientology. It fell into disrepair some time ago but it's coming back. Keep up the good work!

If you haven’t, please follow the amazing journalist @TroMcManus. She does outstanding work! The harassment she gets from #Scientology for just doing her job is absolutely uncalled for. Thank you for your incredible reporting Tracey! https://twitter.com/growingupinscn/status/1637250281216917504
