A Scientology Price List

March 6, 2018 By Mike Rinder 120 Comments

  This promotional piece was forwarded to me recently. Posting it here for posterity and to highlight once again the money insanity of scientology. They call them "donations" -- but don't try telling them you feel like donating a little less today, or nothing at all. You will quickly discover these are not "donations" they are fees. This price list is for Class V orgs in the UK. It is provided by New Era Publications because they sell the materials. Thus, they have an interest in selling training. Nobody else cares much about this in scientology these days. They focus on … [Read more...]

The Warehouse VIII “Suitcase Bomb”

December 5, 2013 By Mike Rinder 127 Comments

We just got this write-up from a Special Field Correspondent. It contains interesting information about the Warehouse VIII and how it is going to blow a lot of people off auditing and training. I bet there is a SERIOUS panic happening right about now over the shitty sales of the W8. Everyone HAS to buy two and they HAVE to pay cash.... Yowzah. What a BOMB this is going to be.   Anyone want to take bets on how long it will be before this "policy" gets changed because after 10 years of warehousing, these beauties are STILL sitting in a warehouse? Miscavige will scream about CI and SP's … [Read more...]

The Hasbro Mark VIII Easy Bake Ultrameter Warehouse Edition

November 26, 2013 By Mike Rinder 87 Comments

  Someone on Ortega's blog this morning put up a picture of the Hasbro Easy Bake oven and compared it to the Warehouse VIII. Striking similarity. And worth a laugh. But believe me, in the world of Miscavige, when he becomes aware of this, heads will roll. Russ Bellin and Tom Vorm in CST were the primary movers on the design of the Warehouse VIII.  Miscavige announced to everyone in International Management (when it actually existed) that these guys had found the top design firm in the world -- "the people that help design Apple" products. At the time, CST honchos were held up as … [Read more...]

Crazy L. Ron Hubbard's 1980 letter to Pres. Reagan explaining his plan for a national sales tax and abolishing the IRS. It was a key theme of #scientology's war on the IRS... until they got exemption. Do today's proponents know? Full letter in blog post.

@MikeRinder just finished reading your book. I've been anti-scientology for about 30 years. Your book was so informative as to the mindset and the bullying, gaslighting etc. Every through I watched the documentaries and listened to the podcast, I found this book so much (/2)
