  Bring on the Regges... Taking a break from saving the world to make some money.   In the Sea Org for 48 years... Demoted from Flag and the Freewinds to CLO EUS and now he is going to tell you how to be OT? Hmmmm BTW - he is a nice guy. He was Chief Steward on the Apollo. One of the most thankless jobs of all time.   Your questions? How about this one.

  Here we have it, straight from the horses mouth - an ideal org is supposed to have 268 staff. Along with their usual foolishness, the Flag OT Committee announced that Chicago has "finished its fundraising" (right....) and that they can now concentrate on getting the staff they need. They have 29 staff now... Which is probably more than a lot of orgs. INCLUDING the ideal ones. Walk into Orlando or Salt Lake City or Malmo or Basel or Perth and see if you can find even 15 staff.

  Freedom for all California... One more empty building and California will be free at last! Not a chance ANYONE actually buys this. But the rah-rah seems to impress.   No we don't Not a one has EVER come back   Nothing quite like "Big Blue" It's ugly, dirty and empty. The celebration may be memorable, but not for the right reasons.   They're trying to sound fancy... If you have ever been to the "PAC Canteen" you will understand the crazy of them serving "lobster tail"   Scientology Thanksgiving  Not only are they NOT providing … [Read more...]

@jj1109 @UltioetVeritas @MikeRinder @LeahRemini @KarendlaCariere @tarpleyhitt @thedailybeast @randomname7700 @TeamSPNetwork @SkyBird03914123 @Deana828 It’s been well documented that SeaOrg members do not receive much education other than Scientology training. On the recent Fair Game podcast Marc Headley confirmed that he was encouraged to drop out when just 15 years old. They appear confident in their ignorance of acronyms.

Excellent article by @tarpleyhitt in @thedailybeast about #scientology in the workplace and this company that is an avenue to politicians for scientology "safepointing" (see my recent blog post about this subject with Hubbard quotes).
