More scientology bubble delusion. Hey guys, just a couple of things for you to consider. All the orgs in the LA area are ideal (and there are more of them than anywhere on earth) -- how are you doing clearing the LA area? If you made a total of 100 Clears in the last year between all the LA area orgs it would be VERY surprising. And certainly nowhere close to 1,000. At that rate, you're not even going to clear 3 blocks around each org this century. You've got your NY, Harlem and Buffalo ideal orgs. How's it going clearing NY State? Florida is "fully ideal" -- even has Ideal … [Read more...]

Bring the kids So we can reg their parents. You may have heard of a “honey trap” — this is a "candy trap." A Treasure Hunt Guess whose treasure is being hunted? And filmed by SMP! I envision... The problem is you think a building is what will make this happen? Because that’s what they told you... perhaps you should check out Jobur or Pretoria and see just how “with a bang” things are going there. This is convincing... Not really. “People” actually won’t be impressed. Though the outfits are pretty arresting. Shocking gene … [Read more...]
The Irony of Ideal Boston
Boston was the org spoken of in such glowing terms by L. Ron Hubbard in LRH ED 339R-1: They are proof -- way back in the early 70's (and written about by Hubbard in 1982) that a new building has nothing to do with expansion. Since Hubbard wrote thus in 1982 there have been exactly zero orgs in the world that have achieved St Hill size and remained so. Yet Hubbard claimed Boston had done it in the 70's. And they did it in the OLD building they had on Beacon St. They SOLD that because that one was not good enough (seemed like it was fine for Hubbard?). That was about 10 YEARS ago … [Read more...]

Happy Thanksgiving to all those who celebrate it today. We all have much to be thankful for. Including the fact that we don’t have to treat anything we read here seriously. Remember most of those still inside the bubble today with compassion and understanding. Many of us have been in their shoes - pretending to be happy and thankful for the only thing that is truly important in this universe (LRH and the tech). Yikes. Hey why not move back there then? If LRH says this is where the next great civilization will spring from there, how come you're not there? You are giving money … [Read more...]

John Oliver on Scientology It's an ongoing joke that makes me laugh week after week... I honestly think this is enough to fulfill the quota for Thursday Funnies all alone. But people have sent me all sorts of other things so I will include them APU. But if you have not yet seen this, take a few minutes and watch. AC/DC I am SURE they would LOVE to be associated with scientology. Rock N Roll is here to stay Apparently this is the new theme for fundraising? Superheros are out. Rock is in. But if this is all they could round up for an Ideal … [Read more...]
Valley OTC Is Shriveling
Remember when they used to issue these commendations BEFORE the "Ideal Org" opened and publish their "OTC Minutes" listing the attendees? They don't do that any more because they were embarrassed about them repeatedly being leaked and appearing on this blog. Ah, for the good old days... And remember the 10X expansion that is guaranteed when an org has its ribbon yanked by the only True Leader, David Miscavige? Well, Valley has just announced their progress towards achieving 10X. They now have 30 active OTC members. But wait a second. It … [Read more...]

Massive IAS campaigns... ...that have affected thousands. Impressive eh? He also is promoted as a Class VI but there is no GAT Class VI??? Daring. Bet you have to pay for this... They might let you in for free, but the regges won't let you out.... Arhus ideal org Wouldn't you be better off trying to get some people through their OT levels? You already have an ideal org down the street and a bunch in Germany, Switzerland, Italy, Spain, Holland, Belgium, Sweden, Israel and Spain. And yet you're empty and your stats are … [Read more...]

They're going all out... It's an ideal Africa coming for sure. Just check out these amazing fundraisers. A monumental moment... ...when they demand you pay up. A catered meal will be served... You know you are expected to pay after that. Get the latest news... And drilling to get you up the Tone Scale -- which happens BEFORE you give the money. It's all downhill from there. Well, if THAT'S your goal... You should really save your money. Only the brave will survive... Actually, only the brave would … [Read more...]
Miscavige Ribbon Yanking Shrinkage
With no fanfare or pre-announcement (scared of being arrested perhaps?), David Miscavige, the True Leader of scientology snuck into Stuttgart and yanked his ribbon. A month ago. He made a quick in and out dash into the danger zone of the Federal Republic of Germany. What is most remarkable is that they managed to get anyone at all to speak on a podium at a scientology event in Germany -- but the "dignitaries" were less than stellar, though they did present a problem in that three of them were quite tall. Even with a forced perspective shot of his standing in front of them, size was … [Read more...]

The most important announcement in history... ...until the next event. And the announcement? "We need more money." We will pay you $12 an hour... or give you a "very upstat and meaningful commendation" A message from Carol Nolan I was the Deputy Command Officer Internal of OSA International for many years. Now I am doing fundraising in Africa. My career path seems to be on the decline... where did I go wrong? Is there any hope? Or is my next stop gig booker for the Jive Aces? He's back! Well, that is a relief. It was only … [Read more...]
