Reality in Scientology

May 22, 2019 By Mike Rinder 62 Comments

It is a very warped world inside the scientology bubble. Occasionally we get a glimpse that is not just the "We ARE Clearing ____city, country, the planet" or "we are expanding faster than ever in history" or the wildly overused "monumental, epic, highest ever, greatest in history, golden age" etc etc Here we have some reality. The Senior C/S Kansas City is trying to get some more tech staff to join his 12 auditors (a number he seems strangely quite proud of...) He tries to sell the upsides of Kansas City -- move here and join staff because we have trees, hills, fountains and music -- … [Read more...]

No New Orgs Part 2

April 18, 2018 By Mike Rinder 97 Comments

Some more promotion about the massive expansion of scientology that clearly states "we are not expanding at all." (see first in this series from a few days ago)   This is the only org for "6 surrounding states" -- meaning there are NO ORGS IN THE 6 SURROUNDING STATES. This is their statement... I assume these 6 states are: Kansas (there is another org in Missouri in St. Louis), Arkansas, Oklahoma, Nebraska, Iowa and Kentucky? Idaho, Montana and Wyoming have no scientology either -- but they are closer to Portland, Salt Lake City and Denver. Then again St Paul is closer … [Read more...]

Thursday Funnies

Fearless Leader? Back in action with more ridiculousness. Wee gatherings and big gatherings -- but no details about where or when. That's a secret!   Highest Ever after Highest Ever Haha. If they are expanding like crazy and have all these Highest Evers, how is it possible that after 6 years as an "ideal org" they are still not SH Size. In fact, they don't even have their filing up to date!     The Foundation for Planetary Clearing There are apparently 50 or more of these ideal orgs. By now something should be visible in the planetary clearing … [Read more...]

Crazy L. Ron Hubbard's 1980 letter to Pres. Reagan explaining his plan for a national sales tax and abolishing the IRS. It was a key theme of #scientology's war on the IRS... until they got exemption. Do today's proponents know? Full letter in blog post.

@MikeRinder just finished reading your book. I've been anti-scientology for about 30 years. Your book was so informative as to the mindset and the bullying, gaslighting etc. Every through I watched the documentaries and listened to the podcast, I found this book so much (/2)
