Miscavige is finally rolling out the "new" OEC. This is the next "big thing" that is now going to guarantee his "ideal orgs" actually expand. It will be announced with great fanfare that Miscavige has "discovered" a new "why" for orgs not making it to St Hill Size. The "new" OEC will be presented by him as his brilliant solution. Just like the "ideal orgs" was a "solution" to the same problem almost 20 years ago "because they could not perform all the functions of an org" (supposedly because they didn't have enough room) and like an auditing session couldn't be delivered without an auditing … [Read more...]
Germany on Scientology
i Germany has just released its annual "Constitution protection report" for 2020. The last section of the report concerns scientology. One of our readers helped us with a translation: "Scientology Organization" (SO) The "Scientology Organization" (SO) intends to establish a worldwide "Scientology Society". The number of members in Germany in 2020, as in 2019, was around 3,500 people. In the year under review, SO online activity increased again as the otherwise usual information stands in cities throughout Germany could not be operated due to the corona pandemic. The SO … [Read more...]
The Incestuous World of Scientology Staff
The shrinking world of scientology.... These days, about the only hope they have of getting new people to join staff or the Sea Org is if they are the children of scientologist parents. Rarely are the "successes" about staff from anyone else, unless it is an old person who says they’ve been on staff for 40 years and are still hoping to make it to Clear. We have had a number of people who were not scientologists recruited for "ideal orgs" with the promise of a job, pay and accommodations that have ended up being helped by the Aftermath Foundation. Typically they have not … [Read more...]
The Big Question
Tony posted this video on his blog on Wednesday: There are a couple of things I wanted to note about it. First, Lyle talks about becoming the HAS Chicago back in 1974. I went on Mission to Chicago in January 1976 based on an evaluation by Hubbard "EUS Ups and Downs" and extracted two people from the tiny org to be sent to Flag for executive training. Lyle was one of them. She says she was staff member #9 in Chicago (that tells you how small the place was in 1974 -- there were probably a dozen staff there when I arrived) and she was the second ED (as I recall, the ED was Dave … [Read more...]
Atlanta: 10X x 0 = 0X
You probably remember when the poster above was being used everywhere. Miscavige flew into Atlanta and yanked his ribbon there in July 2016. Nearly 5 years ago. According to Hubbard, within a few weeks it should have been St. Hill size and then continued to expand exponentially from there. They have had more than plenty of time to accomplish their "10X expansion across their zone." Of course, when you are a zero to begin with, 10X is still zero and that is what you see in Atlanta. In fact, all of Georgia. And Mississippi and South Carolina. Not even a mission anywhere in sight. … [Read more...]
Chicago has 2 Pallets of Dead PC Folders
Chicago is on the runway for a Miscavige Ribbon Yanking ceremony. Woohoo.... But of course, before then they have to get their mountains of backlogged filing in order. They've got something I have never heard of before. Pallets of "Deceased PC Folder switch out" to do? 2 pallets worth? That seems like a lot. Guess the aging population of scientologists in Chicago are shuffling off their mortal coils with some regularity. But what is a "switch out" in this context? I have no idea? Are they making new folders for the dead people? Why? Once again, this highlights the unworkability of … [Read more...]
You Can “Be It All”
You can almost smell the desperation in this new promotional piece. The "ideal" org in Auckland is clearly in need of staff. They have a handful and are making no progress towards achieving St Hill Size (and thus the "Make-Break point" where they actually become viable). Their newest pitch is pretty pathetic. This is the video they are wanting everyone to watch... It's very short. And very, very amateurish. Certainly not a SuMP production. Their sales gimmick is that you don't really have to give up anything to be a staff member. You can do all these others things … [Read more...]
Perth Ideal Org Fail
We have a few items that have come in from Perth ideal org. The first is the announcement that they are "celebrating" 3 years of being "ideal." I wonder what there is to celebrate? They have made 0 progress in clearing their neighborhood, let alone city or state. And remember, this was the org that claimed they were going to be responsible for Clearing Indonesia too --as there is no org at all there. Don't hear much about that these days. And then the next piece is very telling. Remember how Hubbard announced that "Going St Hill Size" was something that could be done in a matter of … [Read more...]
Saving New Zealand One Body Thetan at a Time
This is another in the series of scientology promotional pieces that reveal far more than they intend. Apparently, the senior OT scientologists at Flag believe this lady is going to "save New Zealand." This is the sort of magical thinking these people pride themselves in. They aren't merely deluded, they announce it to the world as if this is perfectly normal. And inside the bubble, IT IS. That is what is so remarkable. Sorry Marion Moffat, you have been on staff for decades in Auckland and have accomplished absolutely no impact on anything. Now, because you are telepathically … [Read more...]
Some Funnies
This is a random collection of things sent in recently. There is little rhyme or reason to them. Hubbard Logic Wrap your brain around this. So, if there is anything you disagree with in scientology it is because you haven't properly recalled what you already knew... Roping in an Ideal Org What they are actually doing is roping in some suckers. Though at this point, I cannot imagine anyone participating in any event like this that isn't already intending to hand over some cash. The more important question. Why is the Valley OT Committee wasting time on Albuquerque … [Read more...]
