Thursday Funnies

February 2, 2023 By Mike Rinder 34 Comments

  For a minimum donation of $25... We will teach you how to find a 2D! Using the Hubbard technology that guided him through 3 marriages, estranged children, lawsuits, abandoned wives and so much more.   Donating for promotion now This is supposed to be the PRIMARY thing purchased with funds paid for scientology services according to L. Ron Hubbard in his "What Your Fees Buy" But it's nice that you get a "Team Player" award... That's a classy touch.   Join staff in Austin Org Because there are lots of people who HOME SCHOOL (caps theirs) … [Read more...]

The Con Man Cometh

December 13, 2022 By Mike Rinder 24 Comments

The great Grant Cardone is coming to do an event at Flag. Not for free of course, they’re going to use this as a chance to make money. They don't say what the price is, but you can scan the QR code (you might have more luck than I did "the server cannot be found") but if that's not good enough for you, you can "ask your Registrar about VIP options." They're trying to make this like a big celebrity “event,” pay $500 you can stand next to the great man, for $1000 get a photo op, for $10,000 you can shake hands and hang out in the green room sort of thing. For this guy? What is really going … [Read more...]

There is a bit of a backlog of Funnies. The ones that were too outdated I sent to the trash file. There are quite a lot, two weeks worth in one episode! Smile away...   They're "On The Plaque" until they're not... These things are VERY temporary.   The "Honor Roll" On it until you're not. These are the marks who have contributed to making Australia the first "ideal continent"...   Big Thumbs Up Come on in, the water's fine. Not that many regges...   Chicago is big So I joined staff. Cincinnati needs staff desperately, their … [Read more...]

  Did they actually have 2 completions in one week? They never show shots of the actual graduation...   More "Advanced Org" services What are these people doing? They're so desperate they are trying to attract raw public?   Monumental Achievements They got some people to play at Graduation! The bar is pretty low these days... It's International(r) you know...   Here's one of their events Same few people -- doesn't really look too international   What I Fear Most Taking financial advice from an old guy trying to look cool and … [Read more...]

Mad Scientologist John Mappin At It Again

January 21, 2021 By Mike Rinder 47 Comments

    This guy is a walking disaster zone. He probably thinks this is "good" media. He is well known as a scientologist, in fact identified here as a "Scientologist and soft porn actor..." This is a recent tweet from him...   It seems there are a good number of scientologists who have fallen prey to the Q conspiracy theories. They show up o0n social media and in emails that circulate around inside the bubble. It's not much of a leap from the ramblings of Hubbard about the government, world bank, Big Pharma, psychs etc etc to the wild claims of Q. The … [Read more...]

Cardone on Compassion, Wiki on Going Clear

February 6, 2015 By Mike Rinder 99 Comments

  The real question here is how "GC" applies his philosophy to himself. Does he fear the church? Is this why he and his beautiful bride hand over so much cash to keep the church happy? In that case, does he classify himself as the weak that listen to them? This guy is a caricature of everything that is bad about scientologists. Money and status obsessed. Arrogant. No empathy. And absolutely certain he has the answers to everything. Except perhaps how he can be such a dupe...   Wikipedia on Going Clear Someone has done an excellent job with the new Wikipedia entry … [Read more...]

Awesome show today ... as usual. It inspired me to resurrect a site I started in 2008 on #Scientology. It fell into disrepair some time ago but it's coming back. Keep up the good work!

If you haven’t, please follow the amazing journalist @TroMcManus. She does outstanding work! The harassment she gets from #Scientology for just doing her job is absolutely uncalled for. Thank you for your incredible reporting Tracey! https://twitter.com/growingupinscn/status/1637250281216917504
