Scientologists actually put out this foolishness -- the saddest part is that they BELIEVE this is true. Like Battlefield Earth telling the story of psych influence on earth, Mission Earth, the 10-volume soft-core porn sci-fi monstrosity is seen by scientologists as Hubbard's commentary on the state of planet earth and his views on sexual perversion and orientation, banking, the media, PR Firms and a whole lot more. Including how to solve pollution on earth -- simple, just dream up a spore that eats pollution. Hey presto! Frankly, though scientology HATES being labelled a "sci-fi" … [Read more...]
Thursday Funnies
"Ideal" Continent Will be accomplished by getting buildings renovated for Perth, Brisbane, Adelaide and Canberra. Never mind the fact there is not a single org in Indonesia, the Philippines, China, South East Asia, Oceania or the Indian subcontinent. Planetary Clearing is happening! More ideal-y-ness Community and Economic Development? If they're so good at this, how come their own communities are disappearing before their very eyes? They're down to a handful of scientologists in the major cities of S. Africa and you can count them on one hand in … [Read more...]
Hawking Hubbard Fiction
Hubbard fiction still being peddled, now by comparing it to Dune and Foundation. These guys will try to cash in on anything. Because these two sci-fi classics are currently getting buzz because of new screen adaptations (though i must say every review I have seen of Asimov's Foundation indicates it bears little resemblance to the books) the hustlers at Galaxy Press are trying to make it seem as though Battlefield Earth is in the same league. After all, it too was turned into a film, and what a magnificent disaster that was, memorialized in numerous "worst films of all time" lists. I w … [Read more...]
Spiritualist Movements
This is a rather lengthy dissertation by long term commenter George M. White, who was one of the first OT VIII completions (that is him above on the Freewinds at graduation). I am publishing it as he sent it to me. He mentioned this when I saw him at a party recently and I offered to put it on the blog. It makes reference to a document called "Student Briefing" and I have included that for your reference at the end of his piece. Spiritualist Movements, Hypnotism, and the Natural Science Model used in the development of Scientology ©by George M. White, 2020 George M. … [Read more...]
Battlefield Earth Sales Going Nowhere
Well, the "OT Committee Farce" is doing their damnedest to sell Battlefield Earth -- and how are they going about it? By telling everyone to buy 20 books a piece.... And this is a "religious activity". But the biggest joke of all is that unlike the recent books by Leah Remini and Ron Miscavige, Battlefield Earth is nowhere to be found on the NY Times bestseller list... This is a good indicator just how many scientologists there REALLY are in the US. Every scientologist is being pressured HARD to buy copies of BE. It is an indicator of serious counter intention not to get behind this … [Read more...]
