  10 weeks with Arte Maren... People PAY for this?   Amount raised - $0 This is her birthday fundraiser that's been up for a year. She is the Snr C/S of the Portland "ideal" org   Wait until you find out... Actually you have to pay more to get that ability because you really cannot confront life until you are done with OT III. And then OT V. And then OT VII. And on and on...   That's a real stretch... Many of these people OD'd -- First guy on their list, Don Simpson was in scientology for a while. Didn't save him.   Buried … [Read more...]

Not a lot of funnies this week, but there are some good ones...   Does this entice you? I don't know what it is, but the look on her face scares me. Just a creepy shot.   All your questions? How about "these volcanoes didn't exist 75 million years ago?" or "how do you pack a thetan in frozen glycol when it has no physical presence?" or "If all my questions are answered, why do I need to bother with OT V or VII or VIII?"     How to get along with others... Unless, of course, they are SP's. Then there is nothing you can do. And this problem is … [Read more...]

Joburg Org Getting ‘Em Young

September 4, 2021 By Mike Rinder 17 Comments

  Joburg Org is working overtime to get those old thetans in young bodies back onto the Bridge. Quite possibly these are the only public on service in the org.... There are after all only two students' graphs on the wall.   When these courses are delivered in schools or businesses, they are denominated as "secular"... They are exactly the same thing in a scientology org (in this case Jobur) as they are in a Delphi school or a WISE Consulting business. Here is a screenshot from the ABLE website promoting exactly the same book for "secular" use:   … [Read more...]

    Take Control of Your Mental Health? What if we told you up front that after you pay tens, if not hundreds of thousands to clear the effects of your reactive mind, that you will eventually realize it was something YOU "mocked up"? How would your mental health seem then?   Fully In Control of Life From reading a book? At least he/she won't need to waste money on auditing.   Focusing on Human Trafficking I bet nobody has let Mona in on the secret that scientology is engaged in systemic human trafficking? And that Columbus org is staffed with … [Read more...]

“Children’s” Dumbed Down Way to Happiness

July 7, 2020 By Mike Rinder 43 Comments

You have to wonder "Why?" The Way to Happiness is about as simplistically written as anything could be. It's been dumbed down ever dumber to attract the under 6 year olds? And it has "colorful cartoons" drawn by the same person who draws the anti-psych cartoons for CCHR it seems... So, I tried to go to the website listed on the promo piece and the address does not exist. I check on Amazon and another children's book called Making Good Choices is all that shows up: I did eventually find this version. I checked a few pages. They HAVE dumbed it down, though the concepts are … [Read more...]

  One of these 3 didn't get the message Arms folded is the only way to go. All of them missed the memo about not smiling.   Narconon not flourishing They are disappearing from the face of the earth....   We finally made 2 Clears We have to tell the world with a special promotional item because it's such a rare thing...   Like really rare... So we made ANOTHER poster for the same person.   The St Lucia Sickle Cell Association hasn't done their homework... Or they are just really hard up for a place to show a … [Read more...]

  That Cristian Vargas sure gets around... He seems to be the only person organizing events these days?   Big news From a "former" investigative reporter and a retired Army officer. I am sure they are experts. Just as sure there will be a lot of correlation without causation involved in this (almost by definition you have to be mentally ill to engage in a mass shooting -- how come scientology hasn't yet "taken over the field" on mental healing and handled this problem? Are they not just as responsible as "the psychs" who they claim know nothing but they have ALL the … [Read more...]

  Bring on the Regges... Taking a break from saving the world to make some money.   In the Sea Org for 48 years... Demoted from Flag and the Freewinds to CLO EUS and now he is going to tell you how to be OT? Hmmmm BTW - he is a nice guy. He was Chief Steward on the Apollo. One of the most thankless jobs of all time.   Your questions? How about this one. Are you addressing the human trafficking occurring at Flag?   The only thing they are less qualified at than human trafficking... Is teaching anyone how to be a good … [Read more...]

  New Years is on Saturday! The wog world is behind the times. Only scientology is fully at cause over matter, energy, space and TIME... This will "literally be the most EPIC!" How could anyone possibly miss it? I bet Tom Cruise won't be there... Or Elisabeth Moss. Or Laura Prepon. There are going to be a whole lot of people who manage to resist the most epic event ever... And look at this -- they will hold your children in pens for the duration of the event! That's cause over Matter. They are even trying to get people to come for the event by offering a free dinner. Bet … [Read more...]

    JAW at it again? "Superfan" John Alex Wood elicited a "Fuck scientology" from Eric Idle. Perhaps the Pythons will have something to say about this?   Well, not sure about best... But certainly poorest.   How sad... His life was a mess. So he moved his family to Columbus to join staff. No doubt with promises of a place to say and good pay. Expect he will reach out to the Aftermath Foundation in about 6 weeks...   Wow, what an honor This is actually a thing?   Erm, what about "Done Sir"? That was last month. All … [Read more...]

L. Ron Hubbard claims his "scientific research" proves he went to heaven. He also opines how #scientology must replace the "false Gods" of #christianity and other religions. It's one of his truly unhinged scribblings that they don't want people to see.

So many people expected that #GhislaineMaxwell would walk free from this trial, but the story told by @BradEdwards_Esq in Relentless Pursuit reveals exactly how she and Epstein worked together. It's a shocking and compelling read. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Relentless-Pursuit-Victims-Jeffrey-Epstein/dp/1471195317/ref=monarch_sidesheet https://twitter.com/BBCWorld/status/1476458297897201667

Watch #TheDeepEnd on Hulu. Fascinating 4 part doc study of cult leader @_tealswan by Jon Kasbe and @BitsSola. Also listen to interview by @sarahjedmondson and @nippyames on @alittlebitculty podcast. Cult leaders are all cut from the same cloth. My take: https://www.mikerindersblog.org/off-the-deep-end/
