Thursday Funnies

  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...]

Whether you are a Christian or not, this is a time of good cheer and good wishes. Revel in them. Enjoy the friends and family you do have, even if some are not present due to cult influence. … [Read more...]

Holiday Funnies

December 24, 2020 By Mike Rinder 28 Comments

A special edition of the Funnies just for the holidays. There is an apparently endless stream of "Holiday" promotion -- though scientology of course does not recognize Jesus as anything but part of the "R6 bank."   Virtual Freewinds Wouldn't you like to be at the Freewinds for the holidays? So, to entice you to go there, they are holding a virtual concert in Los Angeles? WTF?   Virtual Hawaii And the point of this? Strictly a fundraiser obviously. What does Bodhi Elfman have to do with Christmas? Or Hawaii? Or anything at all?   Well, they are going to … [Read more...]

  Still quoting this from 1965... Obviously, every child born before 1965 made their 16th birthday unless some illness or accident intervened. The world did NOT end in 1981... But this is still absolute truth.   There is no way to disseminate scientology successfully Unless the person is a child or has no access to Google. End of story.   The real question is... How long will you be able to hack it?   Class VIII auditor? There's no such thing any more in this "Golden Age of Tech." And she has done KTL and LOC -- I bet her briefing doesn't … [Read more...]

New revelations from @TroMcManus. Of course #scientology has records that document their abuses but claim they can keep them secret. The USSC disagrees, but they continue to assert it and when law enforcement doesn't press they get away with murder. When will it end?

Tracey McManus@TroMcManus

Valeska Paris sued Scientology last month in Tampa federal court, alleging she was trafficked as a child.

Three years ago, she tried to pursue criminal charges.

Clearwater Police couldn’t get evidence from the church.

Of course he didn’t.

When you’re second in command of a borderless totalitarian state and cult of personality you can’t risk being asked about prison camps, forced abortions, conversion therapy, forced family separations, and the first in command physically abusing his workforce https://twitter.com/raminsetoodeh/status/1526945227382018051

Tom Cruise took a selfie with a fan after his #Cannes2022 talk. But he didn’t take any questions from the audience:

@LeahRemini @MikeRinder Thank you for brining further awareness to the authorities of this cult! Scientology uses conversion therapy which is not illegal in Ca. I have been through plenty of it with this CULT and its abuse. Im grateful now to have my free and beautiful GAY life!
