Our friend Mark Bunker is in the news again. But this time it isn’t about what scientology is doing to Fair Game him. Some of you may have seen the announcement that Wise Beard Man intends to run for a seat on the Clearwater City Commission. It was reported in the Tampa Bay Times yesterday. Clearwater, Bunker said, has “got a unique problem here in Scientology. And I think the city ought to balance it out with a unique council member who understands Scientology.” Mark has a long history in Clearwater and with scientology. We discussed some of this in 2 episodes of Scie … [Read more...]
No Irony Here
Take Scientology's advice -- watch The Aftermath and see what is REALLY going on in scientology. Don’t listen to the propaganda spewed by scientology in the media or on their websites. Watch those who personally experienced scientology up close and personal. It is so appropriate they say this because it captures exactly what has happened to scientology — their PR has taken a fatal hit they will never recover from because people have been able to see the truth. Such irony, but lacking any ability to introspect or confront the reality before their very eyes, they continue to m … [Read more...]
Memorial Day Disgrace
See the excellent piece at Tony Ortega’s blog this morning concerning L. Ron Hubbard’s stolen valor. I was sent a couple of promotional items from this year that have a different focus. Many will find this just as crass as the fake medals and war hero status of Ron the War Hero. This day is supposed to be about remembering those who have fallen, but any excuse to get some suckers in so they can be victims of some good old fashioned “hard sell” is an opportunity scientology does not want to miss. So, on L. Ron Hubbard Way today, in solemn commemoration of his war hero status, kids can g … [Read more...]
Miss NY — Unwitting(?) Scientology Shill
Father and daughter scientology fundraisers Meghan and Ben Fialkoff have apparently pulled off a small coup by persuading "Miss New York" to endorse them. You can see they are promoting her in their promotion here: And here is the video of Miss NY -- you will note she doesn't say anything about what program she is endorsing, just that she is talking to kids about drugs. I would bet Miss NY knows nothing of the real activities of the Fialkoffs. They are full time scientology pitchers/fundraisers. I wonder if Miss NY understands that the news of her "endorsement" … [Read more...]
Scientology Violates Priest-Penitent Confidences — When It Suits Them
This comes from another of the entirely inappropriately titled scientology internet fronts, the "Truth Newsroom". This thing, with no names or identities associated, not even the word scientology - is clearly an OSA operation. They send out a constant stream of material taken from former Sea Org members' files. They put one out from one of my confessions that I felt bad about lying as if this was some sort of proof that I was lying today -- it made no sense as I said this when I was still the International Spokesperson for scientology and I continued to be that. But the … [Read more...]
Scientology’s Holocaust Hypocrisy
The OSA fake outrage website has hit a new low. While they hand out their "human rights" awards to one of the most reviled anti-semites in the US, they have the nerve to pretend they are "Standing With Jews Everywhere"... Hey OSA, this is your idea of "standing with Jews"? Palling around with Tony Mohammed, Louis Farrakhan's sidekick and apologist, with the Nazi hate propaganda on his promotional posters? In fact, you gave this guy your highest award... a Freedom Medal like you gave Tom Cruise. And you feature him on your ScientologyTV propaganda channel with his own … [Read more...]
Scientology’s Australian Tragedy
Some Thoughts from Leah and Mike Thank you all for your messages of love and support in response to the latest attacks from scientology. As we have previously stated, our thoughts and prayers are with Chih-Hen Yeh's family -- the victim murdered at the Australian scientology center. Sadly, this is just the latest example of scientology using a tragedy to attack those speaking out against its abusive practices. The irony is that we speak out against the culture of violence within the highest echelons of scientology, perpetrated and encouraged by David Miscavige. We are exposing … [Read more...]
Scientology: The No Responsibility Case
L. Ron Hubbard talks a LOT about responsibility in his scientology writings, and often laments the sad state of those who cannot be responsible for their actions. His derogatory term for this type of person is "a no responsibility case." This is a famous, and oft-used quote taken from Hubbard's Advanced Procedures and Axioms book: A soldier shot on the field of battle may "blame" the sniper, the Selective Service, the stupidity of government, but he nevertheless had full responsibility not only for being there and getting shot but for the sniper, Selective Service and the stupidity of … [Read more...]
Fast Eddie Goebbels
Fast Eddie is a one-man dumpster fire of crazy. His tweets become more and more unhinged as he frantically tried to think of something to say that is going to get anyone to believe that the abuses (and policies) exposed on The Aftermath are not the truth. I am variously a bobblehead, wife-beater, liar, Big Pharma Whore, bigot, anti-religionist, hater and now Goebbels protege. Now, if we apply a little of Hubbard "technology" of a "criminal accuses others of what he himself is doing." This is the entry on Goebbels from Wikipedia: Paul Joseph Goebbels was a G … [Read more...]
Fast Eddie is Losing His Mind — “Big Pharma Whores”
Fortunately, Fast Eddie Parkin, the head of STAAD League and OSA International old-timer (he used to be Heber Jentzsch's assistant back before Heber was "disappeared") cannot block everyone on Twitter. Fast Eddie makes a habit of sliming people scientology doesn't like with his STAAD League account (@EPStandLeague). But everyone he targets is blocked from seeing his Tweets, and anyone who ever responds to him with anything less than fawning agreement of his assessment of himself as a genius is instantly blocked. This is such a cowardly way of doing things -- but is a typical scientology … [Read more...]
