Tourist Promo Interesting how all promo for Dublin org features the "beauty of Ireland" as the first selling point. I thought this org was put there to "Clear Ireland," the Irish don't need to go to a scientology org to experience the beauty of Ireland. They live there. Correct Title: Scientology Winter Festival The "community" (wogs) are just there for show. They are not much use to the regges. Kiddie Corner Merry R6 Implant Day You would think they could at least not be totally insulting and say "Happy … [Read more...]
Thursday Funnies
Graduation Cocktail Hour? They've taken it a step beyond food in Australia... You can do the Purif here! Only at Flag, Freewinds, possibly the SO Orgs and Narconon. No Class V orgs or Missions. Because we said so. Good News! "In celebration of the New Year, the Christmas season production bonuses and prizes are hereby extended for three weeks: December 23 and December 30, 2021 and December 6, 2022. International Director of Finance" I guess they didn't make enough cash to pay any bonuses, so "Christmas bonuses" are going to become … [Read more...]
Thanksgiving Funnies
Happy Thanksgiving to everyone in the US. Thank you. No Thank you. No, thank you... But in the end it's only Ron that matters. Eradicate the Reactive Mind I've got a faster, better, cheaper idea. Don't buy into the idea in the first place. In the end, they coax you into believing you created it in the first place. Holiday Escape Rooms? They lock you in a room with a reg and see if you can get out without going bankrupt? Big News You can bet it has something to do with you giving them your money for their holidays. That is always … [Read more...]
Narconon Goes After Country Music
Scientology and its front organizations (like Narconon and CCHR) live in a world disconnected from reality. They seem oblivious to the absurdity of things they say and positions they take. Narconon is now beginning to sound like prohibitionists, targeting county music for "romanticizing alcohol." Unfortunately, while contemporary country music stars continue to produce great music year after year, there are increasing incidences of romanticizing alcohol in country music lyrics, romanticizing it, glamorizing it, or even construing alcohol with happy times, carefree adventures, and … [Read more...]
CCHR Racist Hypocrisy
In every aspect of scientology, the hypocrisy runs VERY deep. They accuse others of "hate" while perpetrating it themselves. The rail against human trafficking while engaged in human trafficking of Sea Org members every day. They shout loudly about anti-Semitism while supporting and promoting some of the loudest anti-Semites. And here they are again. Complaining that the APA's "recent apology for its support of structural racism understates psychiatry’s racial human rights abuses and its long history of instigating racism..." CCHR thinks their apology is inadequate. Frankly, … [Read more...]
Episode 53: Listener Questions 7
Our next episode of Listener Questions. Always some of our favorite episodes, and as usual, though we cover a lot of ground, we didn't get through nearly all the questions you have sent in. This time we try our best to answer questions about who does the Fair Gaming, what is CCHR, how scientology views the disabled, what PTSness is, The Duke of Chug, scientology's sense of humor and much more. Leah and Mike even act out what happens in an auditing session. It's a lot of fun and hopefully informative. Dealing with Critics of Scientology What is … [Read more...]
Episode 48: Listener Questions 6
The next episode of Listener Questions. As always, we cover a lot of ground, though not nearly all the questions you have submitted. This time we try our best to answer questions about how many scientologists are left, why scientology is so "white," should scientology celebrities be boycotted, the front groups of scientology, Applied Scholastics schools, Degraded Beings, Dilettantes and more. It's a lot of stuff! And here are some documents and resources to go alo0ng with the answers. The number of scientologists today -- this is a great visual done by … [Read more...]
Raffle Mania
Despite the Hubbard policy forbidding this, apparently the desperation for money overcomes all restraints. Though, as CCHR delivers no "services" I supposed they have somewhat of an excuse. But where is the IAS? The IAS repeatedly uses the fact they support CCHR, and announces their "wins" as a reason people should give money to the IAS to "eradicate psychiatry." It is a mainstay of the IAS mantra. So, how come CCHR has to hold raffles to raise money? Of course, the next question to ask about this -- are they fighting for the kids IN SCIENTOLOGY who are being abused? That is of … [Read more...]
CCHR Hypocrisy
CCHR people are amazing. They churn out an apparently endless stream of accusations about psychiatry that complain about the psychs doing exactly what they do every day- and utterly devoid of irony. Forced labor? How about being on staff in a scientology org? Or even more, in the Sea Org? Money motivation? Labelling people? This is perhaps the most ironic of all. Wogs. PTS. SP. Type 3. etc etc etc Apart from the different labels, the only thing this cartoon has wrong is that the person would be directed to the registrar rather than a … [Read more...]
Irony? They’ve Never Heard The Word
The anti-psych brigade, with Ken Cramer driving the clown car, are at it again. Change the sign in his cartoon below from psychiatrist to scientologist and it would be a far more accurate depiction. While psychiatrists may charge fees for their services, scientology is obsessed with getting people's money. There are sales courses and finding ruins and bringing up to need of change and Big League Sales and of course, MAKE MONEY. MAKE MORE MONEY. I don't think you could find a psychiatric text on how to go about getting money from people, but there are volumes of them in … [Read more...]
