This week is dominated by two orgs on the endless quest to become "ideal" -- Miami and Edinburgh. But plenty of other fun too. Ridiculously amazing Ridiculously: so as to invite mockery or derision; absurdly. Amazing: causing great surprise or wonder How to handle a speeding ticket? Scientology is absolutely certain L. Ron Hubbard has taught them everything Master Your Control, Communication and Havingness with the 16th American ACC Lectures LRH tells a workable technique for reading people’s minds.

2016 — The Year Of BS
Haven't had a chance to get this out yet. It perhaps encapsulates the reality within the scientology bubble better than anything. It is not only full of typos and spelling mistakes (Narcannon?), it is full of "scientology-think" - a strain of illogic that is sometimes hard to believe. And as an added bonus, it has a generous helping of shermanspeak ("the moment we synchronize with eternity" - perhaps it's some sort of get-together on infinity's porch?). You can read it for yourself, but don't spend a lot of time trying to make sense of the nonsensical. It will make you insane. Some … [Read more...]
The Truth About Scientology Staff
You may have seen something I put in the Thursday Funnies about how Tampa "model ideal double St Hill size" org is working on making it viable to be on staff. This is a another of the whopper lies in scientology -- somehow these organizations that charge people hundreds of dollars AN HOUR for services, do not have money to give a decent wage to staff members. Most live on income levels that are unsustainable without: a) a spouse or someone else who supports them or b) they work a second and sometimes third job in their "spare" time -- usually for a local scientologist. This working on … [Read more...]

The Moneywinds is ROCKING Recent shot of the "Starlight Cabaret". Says everything you need to know about how they are busting the seams at the top of the Bridge. It's Epic They have 13 OTC members flat out on the "ideal" org in San Diego. Should be done be 2050. Last time for this year Uncle Sam wants you to go up the Bridge. Seriously? Tampa "is making" staff a viable career It's been an "ideal org" for 12 years and they haven't yet made being staff a viable career. If Tampa can't do it, nobody can. After all, … [Read more...]
Scientology New Year’s Hype
On New Year's Day I posted a comment to my Facebook page welcoming in the new year with some humor from David Miscavige's address to the faithful sheeple at the event in Los Angeles. A few other observations beyond noting the utter gibberish he spouted about compressed time and warp speed, a year equivalent to "a thousand years of triumph" and "arriving on the porch of eternity." I am ignoring the horrendous (from his perspective) events of the year that he also ignored. They need not be recounted, it suffices merely to say the words "Going Clear" passed the lips of orders of magnitude more … [Read more...]
Rundown of Problems
A Special Correspondent (clearlypissedoff) sent this to me. They did a lot of work to compile this information and it deserves to see the light of day as it is an invaluable resource for those looking for a summary of problems and sources of data. It seems like a perfect posting to get the New Year started with something both memorable and useful. clearlypissed off sent me this and asked me to put it at the top of this posting: "Thank you very much Mike, for editing this document and posting it. I would like to make the comment that this was assembled with the viewpoint of having … [Read more...]

Best gift ever... Pay for them to attend one of our fundraising dinners where they will be hounded and harassed until they have turned over anything they have... OT IX and X on the brink of release How do we know? Because the "OTC Production Secretary" announced it. Funny, Dear Leader usually likes to take credit... Celebrate the Sucesses [sic] There are only about 10 words on this -- and they still cannot spell them right. Ensuring mankind has a future Nothing conceited about this. Cambridge "ideal" org can't reach beyond the sidewalk... Mega … [Read more...]
Scientology Fundraising — The Reality
The below mailing is sent out by scientology as a big success: Take out loans. Stretch your finances beyond what any sensible person would do. Go deeply into debt. And then somehow it all works out due to a windfall that was completely unexpected. What a way to handle your money? Doing exactly what L. Ron Hubbard said NOT to do, so you can be really "on Source" and hand over everything you own, and more, to the great scientology cause (of course "ideal orgs" are totally "squirrel" according to Hubbard, but that is not what the sheeple are told). Insanity. What about the 100 or 100 … [Read more...]
Flag OTC News
Thursday Funnies on Monday. This is 4 pages of LOL nuttiness, direct from the "greatest OT Committee on earth." The delusion is a wonder to behold... Somewhow Kaye Champagne is has become "ideal orgs IC earth." Why would she go to South Africa? If you are really going to do some "ideal orging" why don't you stick closer to home? Philly? Detroit? Boston? Chicago? They all have FAR larger fields than anything in Southern Africa. And apart from their undone, long promised "AO" they have Durban, Cape Town, Port Elizabeth, Joburg North, Bulawayo and Harare to finish. Bet you this trip … [Read more...]

It's the Season of Giving -- to us. Hey, I thought it was scientology that was supposed to be changing communities? Dallas? Promoting an OT 1 success story? I guess they don't have any completions on the services they deliver at their "ideal" org? The role of planet earth and why we are here... Nothing like a promise you can't deliver. Wonder what an "Ideal Org" event is? They have been "ideal" since 2003. New status Nothing gets scientologists more excited than a new status. Damn the volunteer work and who might be … [Read more...]
