A new pitch "Pledging" for Ideal Orgs and the IAS "works". People think they are escaping the pressure by agreeing to "pledge" money they don't have -- they dont realize the pressure they will be under to "make good" on their pledge, even being routed to ethics for not "keeping their word." So, why not use it for services too? Stars of the North? Winning the Birthday Game. If this morgue is winning the Birthday Game it is a sad indictment of all the other morgues, from Orlando and Miami to New York and Harlem. Wow -- TC is the best.... Another … [Read more...]
Thursday Funnies
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...]
The Sad Delusion Scientology Breeds
This "success story" is not unusual, but it highlights the utter delusion that is fostered in scientology. It either attracts or creates people who have truly lost touch with reality. It is like Trekkies or Star Wars fanatics who live in a world of make-believe, except rather than thinking Captain Kirk is a hero or Darth Vader is a bad guy, scientologists are certain L. Ron Hubbard is the savior of earth, "the psychs" are trying to kill them and that by handing over more money to scientology it will make them "responsible" for the world and give them an elite status as a … [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...]
Where is the IAS? Part 4,764
OK, where is the IAS for the 4,764th time? They always claim that the "CCHR campaigns" are "what your donations buy." Really? How come CCHR is always fundraising? And can't even put up a billboard? Not even 10% of their goal raised in 6 months. Don't you clubbed seals see what is happening? Are you really this blind? By the way, CCHR, the "Billboard Babes" managed to get a billboard UP in a matter of weeks.... … [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...]
Where is the IAS?
Scientology always wants to have its cake and eat it too. And they want you to buy the cake. And they want you to give them money so they can buy a cake. The never ending demand for money is one defining feature of scientology (along with lies, serial abuses and familial destruction). It’s the same story with ideal orgs - give us your money to buy and renovate buildings that we will own, then give the IAS money so they can buy and renovate the same buildings because this is what they do with your money. ”But I already gave to CCHR/ideal orgs/WTH campaign/planetary dissemination etc … [Read more...]

An Ideal Continent... Yeah, they cover all of Asia and if they can just get those last two orgs in Adelaide and Canberra done they will be ideal... No org in Indonesia, India, Thailand, Philippines, Malaysia, Vietnam or Mainland China AT ALL. But hell, who cares when the ones they have are "all ideal"... Gathering in the back alley... Arms crossed. Sunglasses on. What could be cooler. Make $400,000 a year selling OCA's... Hahahaha It's a "special" briefing Another code word for fundraising Go for the kids... Their parents … [Read more...]
Sailing into the Sunset
The Annual "Maiden Voyage" celebration aboard the Freewinds was as underwhelming as it was overhyped. I have finally found a few minutes to review the International Scientology News edition reporting on the "week of events"... A few things of note. Of course, the feature of the magazine was Captain Miscavige, Chairman of the Bored, Ecclesiastical Leader of the Scientology Religion for Tax Purposes Only and leading candidate for the role of Uncle Martin in the Netflix remake of My Favorite Martian... He still proudly (and cynically) wears his "wedding band" so nobody asks him … [Read more...]
