Twin Cities is #1 Seriously? 37 weeks at number 1 speaks volumes as to the state of scientology. This place is deader than a doornail... and they are the best. Few Apply, All Are Chosen And why do you always leave out the bit about terrible pay in the middle? Why no mention of Scientology? It's being held at Joburg Org. According to Google maps that is the corner of Langermann Dr and Grays St. They can't even get the address right? They spelled it right one this one... Celebrate 10 years of … [Read more...]
Closing Orgs in “The Greatest Era of Expansion in Scientology History”
There has been some discussion on the blog of late about Day and Foundation Orgs. It is an interesting topic in the face of scientology's bold statements about their "greatest expansion in history." I have commented that almost all of the Foundation Orgs have been closed by Miscavige as he rolls forward with his "ideal orgs" real estate investment scheme. Newcomers to the subject of scientology may not understand what this terminology means, so I thought I would be provide you with some "source" on the subject, taken out of OEC Volume 7 which contains a section about the "Foundation … [Read more...]
Thursday Funnies
The planet gets a little saner? How is this when the number of new non-Clears is outstripping the number of Clears every day by 220,000 to 1? You are literally in a bubble of unreality. This is the reason to Clear them? I thought it was because they are aberrated? Oh, that makes sense... You know that 22 of the 25 largest cities on earth (with populations above 8 million) are in countries that don't even have a single scientology org? This includes China, India, Indonesia, Brazil, Turkey and Korea They finally got one Clear And a … [Read more...]
Spiritualist Movements
This is a rather lengthy dissertation by long term commenter George M. White, who was one of the first OT VIII completions (that is him above on the Freewinds at graduation). I am publishing it as he sent it to me. He mentioned this when I saw him at a party recently and I offered to put it on the blog. It makes reference to a document called "Student Briefing" and I have included that for your reference at the end of his piece. Spiritualist Movements, Hypnotism, and the Natural Science Model used in the development of Scientology ©by George M. White, 2020 George M. … [Read more...]
The “Self-Evident” Truth of the Flat-Earth Society/Scientology
This is a recent posting on the Patheos website -- which is really just an outlet for any content the scientology propaganda machine can generate. Some of it offers good insight into the minds of scientology. This article, by T. Riggs Eckleberry (ex-SO -- he was just Riggs back then) is another of them. It starts with a premise that is entirely false. Namely that scientology is "truth" and proceeds to build on that false assumption from there. His first sentence asserts that of course scientology is true: “All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. S … [Read more...]
Scientology’s Latest Lie About Me
While there have been many, many lies propagated by scientology about me, it still surprises me sometimes when they offer up new ones. This appeared a few days ago on my daughter's blog (though she is just the name and face that is used -- this garbage is written by the same people that churn out the drivel that appears on the STAND League and Freedom smear sites). The idea that I committed some grievous bodily harm on my ex-wife when she and 6 others stalked and accosted me in a doctors parking lot in 2010 has been thoroughly debunked on this blog (see Mike Rinder: "Lady Killer") … [Read more...]
More Scientology Speak
This was a comment on the recent post that I felt deserved more attention. It comes from long-time commenter Mockingbird's blog Mockingbird's Nest and was originally published in December 2015. Many of the quotes here are very important. I include the whole post unedited. Not every statement within it is the way I would have phrased it, but nevertheless, overall I find this to be an important addition to the discussion about scientology and how it controls people's thinking/minds. Mockingbird says: I’m not making any claims about being smarter than anybody here, but I … [Read more...]
Scientology Speak
This Facebook post highlights something important about Scientology. The incomprehensible code language that scientologists speak. To a non-cult member I am sure this is virtual gibberish: 2D, postulates, flows, beingness and the whole idea of a “liability formula” and repair of past ethics are just meaningless terms and concepts. This does two things — it reinforces the “us against them” construct that is a foundation of all cults, keeping the members in the mind prison because the outside world (wogs) don’t understand them. And... It allows them to define things in their … [Read more...]
George White
Frequent commenter here George White sent me this photo of some of the original OT VIII's on the Freewinds in 1988. I don['t recognize many, and George doesn't recall anything other than the first names of some of them. Milt Wolfe is in the center -- he was the CO Flag Ship Service Org, though it was not an assignment that lasted long. I think that is Jane Allen in the back row. She is an IAS Freedom Medal winner who vanished from the scene after contracting cancer. Debbie Mace is standing to the left of Milt, co-founder of the infamous Mace-Kingsley enterprise, also an IAS Freedom Medal … [Read more...]
We Did It!
Ah, the pride of a false sense of accomplishment! My daughter and her OSA handlers put out this happy message of Christmas Cheer. "We Did It! I got my father fired." It is pretty incredible how blatantly they follow Hubbard's dictates to cost "enemies" their jobs. Such a cheery "holiday" message from the "church" that believes "there was no Jesus" and that those who believe in him are the victims of psychs who "implanted" them. Scientology claims they cost me my job, and they are proud of this. It's not a true statement, but then again, most public utterances … [Read more...]
