It is sometimes quite astonishing the things scientology promotes. Here is another "success story" from an OT VIII. They are proud of this, and want the world to know. I read it and think to myself how crazy and deluded they sound. Yet they think this is the most incredible recommendation possible. I have bolded some sections to make them stand out and added a few comments in red. YES, I did it - I’m a New OT VIII completion!! Where the heck do I begin? SO MUCH has changed in my universe…I’d like to tell you briefly about my life, to give you a better perspective as to how OT … [Read more...]

Thursday Funnies on Saturday. A bit delayed due to the Mark Bunker announcement on Thursday. Anniversary of what? Their "anniversary" of making the OT levels available in Australia is celebrated by flying in two full time fundraisers to talk about money. "All meals and refreshments provided" (for $50 per day). Desperate much? Success? I was a little worried if I got all I was supposed to? And this is the best they've got? Another "success"? Well, the first was a "quickie" and this one is "overrun". But of course, by … [Read more...]

There are some real gems in this one "Dr." Hubbard, the nuclear physicist expounds on his understanding of radiation. Basically, as long as you gulp some vitamins and get some auditing it can't hurt you.... State of the Nation... What to look for? When to act? What ARE they blabbering about? Meaningless words Wonder what dimension they are operating in? The world? Nobody in Perth even knows you exist. How about starting there? The planet gets a little saner? A butterfly in the Amazon flapping its wings … [Read more...]

I reckon Clint is looking for his .44 Magnum... I suspect he would not be happy. They should have left it as The Good, The Bad and The Ugly. Where do they find their graphic artists? Alfraudie is back He will be working the hussle. He is the "CEO" of what exactly? The upper tenth of the upper twentieth... Just study some Hubbard and you qualify for the Mensa society. Or at least a "Who's Who" entry. The stuff is that good it will convert you from a run-of-the-mill wog into a homo novis. Nothing bashful here either... If … [Read more...]
More on OT IX and X
Follow up to post a few days ago OT IX & X: Promises, Promises, Promises where I covered the announcement from Captain Miscavige in 1995 of the requirements for the "release" of the non-existent OT IX and X. That prompted a reader to send me this letter from 1993 where he had earlier laid out the prerequisites for OT IX. Class VI or Class V Grad FPRD Auditor Training Course Hubbard Senior Security Checker Course PTS/SP Auditor Course Happiness Rundown Auditor Course PDH Detection and Handling Course That sounded good at the time. No public person had done all … [Read more...]
OT IX and X: Promises, Promises, Promises…
I came across this the other day. It is a High Winds magazine from 1995. High Winds is the "magazine of the Sea Org" and only a few were ever published, usually to commemorate "Sea Org Day". This is the edition where Captain Miscavige (he now considers referring to him this way to be improper/derisive and had his lawyers complain about it in court -- because it indicates he is the capo of the SO and he fears this being used in litigation to hold him responsible for the things he is actually responsible for...) announces the "requirements for the release of new OT IX and X", Of course, … [Read more...]
More on the “Wog” Face of the Freewinds
This is a follow up to the recent post about Carol Miles: The Face of the Freewinds: A "Wog". Valeska sent me this write up with some further information, and it is an opportunity to republish the photo of Carol that was sent in by a reader. Also at the end I have included a comment posted by Jeff Hawkins about how Carol came to be the "Face of the Freewinds". Valeska wrote: Carol was sent to the RPF in late 2008 for being suicidal and having "case on post" and for wanting to leave the Sea Org. This was orchestrated by Lurie Belotti, (RTC Rep Ship) and Sue Price, (CO CMO Ship). She … [Read more...]
The Face of the Freewinds: “A Wog”
For many years in the early 2000's, the "face" of the Freewinds was Carol Miles, the "Executive Officer"/"Public Officer." She was the face and voice (with a wonderfully genteel english accent) of Freewinds promotional videos. She narrated tours of the ship and appeared at the end of each Freewinds video with a pitch for people to come and partake in the Freewinds experience. There has been some earlier commentary on the internet that mentioned Carol. She disappeared from public view around 2007 (like me), and as with Heber, Ray Mithoff, Guillaume Lesevre and so many others, nobody … [Read more...]

Don't worry, you will... Many times Seriously? Next. Ideal Survivor -- where the last person to resist the regges wins. I bet this will be a lot of fun for the family. Get the kids up there pledging their piggy banks. How about an ideal uniform Or at least a clean one. The Chan Man is back Along with Raffy the Rascal. A pair of grifters of the first order. Yeah, scientology will do that to you... Delude you into thinking you have the solutions. Funny how nothing was actually resolved. Just that she thinks they're "not … [Read more...]

OT VIII confront and shatter Unless it's an actual SP. Then it's "run and hide" tech. But the real question is, why would a master o&the universe have to REDO a course like this? Surely she was not PTS? If you apply, you qualify They rounded up the 5 youngest SO members at AOSHUK for this shot. Bantufest.org? The term "bantu" is these days ONLY acceptable as a reference to specific languages, not peoples or cultures. Oops... But then again, most people in the US would have no clue. Uh oh, it's another front group... This is … [Read more...]
