It's been some time since any news about Debbie Cook has surfaced. Then last weekend Tony Ortega posted that she has just published a book on Amazon about recovering from Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue. Although I haven't spoken to Debbie in years, I have thought about her and Wayne many times and after reading some of the comments on Tony's blog, I felt some background information might be of interest to fill in a few blanks and perhaps dispel some misconceptions. There hasn’t really been a reason for me to write about this before. Marty covered the activities of her case and the … [Read more...]
Scientology Psychiatric Hypocrisy
The hypocrisy of scientology knows no bounds. While proclaiming "the psychs" to be the "source of all evil and degradation on planet earth" amidst announcements of programs to "destroy psychiatry", "eradicate psychiatry" and "obliterate psychiatry" and promoting their "Psychiatry, An Industry of Death" "museum/exhibit," apparently psychs are A-OK as long as they are an element of "dealing with an SP." This practice is known as "Fair Game" -- and while the church claims "the policy is canceled", the PRACTICE is demonstrated routinely as a fundamental tenet of scientology. And here we go … [Read more...]
Scientology Shitstorm
The Tampa Bay Times has just put on their website the latest story on human rights and disconnection written by Joe Childs. This is a must read for anyone interested in the subject of Scientology that puts the lie to the church PR that there is no such thing as enforced disconnection. It will appear as the feature story in the Sunday print edition, but went online just as the sheeple were filing into Ruth Eckerd Hall. You should also read the 25 page order from Judge Waldrip in the Monique Rathbun handed down today and now on Tony Ortega's site. Judge Waldrip hoisted the church on its own … [Read more...]
PC Folders Are Confidential
The church lawyers who stand on their hind legs in court and proclaim the absolute sanctity of pc folders should get a load of this. The lies the church tells the public, media and courts about how NOBODY can access pc folders except the auditor and C/S are exposed by the "CF I/C OTC DK Org" (I guess the OTC is now a "shadow org" with duplicate posts to the org itself). The fact that a public person is recruiting other random public to "go through pc folders" and "pull out data" is one of the more remarkable FB posts I have come across. So typical of the RCS. Virtually everything they say in … [Read more...]
Sydney Ideal Org
Some news about the latest "Ideal Org" to blow smoke up the remaining butts that will occupy a seat at an event. I didnt post this email from a few weeks ago -- sort of got lost in other activities. And it was just a single email. Following is what I wrote about it on 15 January.... Just 6 weeks away from the Grand Opening! And THEN we can START rocketing people up the Bridge. Because everyone knows, you can't get anyone up the Bridge unless you are "ideal." Mark your calendars everyone -- 1 March is the big day (I am taking bets now on when this will in fact occur -- anyone in Sydney … [Read more...]
Miscavige’s New Favorite Reference
I recently watched the One Ring Circus that was the IAS Event. Tony Ortega covered it on his blog. If you managed to force yourself to watch it you will have noticed it was a great deal of same old, same old. I think they are even recirculating some of their video elements. But this was especially true in the section on how the IAS is eradicating/destroying/obliterating/annihilating psychiatry and everything it does and stands for. The Ringmaster repeated over and over again that this is a high priority for the IAS. It isn't really -- if you have ever had CCHR beg you for money didn't it … [Read more...]
Lying And Fundamentalist Scientology
Is the "Church of Scientology" a fundamentalist organization? In my view, it is. And if you read the criteria for fundamentalism above, there is not much doubt that the hard core members of the church fit right in to these 5 points. I was prompted to write this by an interesting post on Marty's blog a little while ago entitled Trained To Lie. I posted a comment in response which I repeat here: Marty — the corollary to this is the fact that these people will do anything to “protect the church” and believe that this is “the greatest good.” Thus, telling a lie is not a harmful act if it going … [Read more...]
Mike Rinder Texas Declaration
Because I have it soft copy and because I feel it summarizes a lot of relevant information that should be easily accessible for readers of this blog, this is the text of the declaration filed in the Monique Rathbun case in Texas today. For some reason loading this into wordpress keeps messing up the numbering. It doesnt change any of the text. DECLARATION OF MICHAEL RINDER My name is Michael Rinder, I am over the age of 21, and I have personal knowledge of the facts stated herein, which I declare are true and correct subject to the penalty for perjury. I was raised in a … [Read more...]
The Texas Showdown
Read the article and attached documents on Tony Ortega's site this evening. There are a series of declarations that tell a lot of the real story of the state of radical Scientology. Some weeks ago I said that I would post some things from LRH here for people to contemplate as there are some who read and post on this blog that seem to believe that LRH was flawless and that the aberration that is the church of Scientology today is entirely created by others. You will see in my declaration that was filed today that I cited some little known LRH references that may surprise some readers of this … [Read more...]
Scientology “Champions of Human Rights” — The Facts
Please read the lengthy and compelling article on Tony Ortega's blog this morning about Laura Dieckman (Decrescenzo)'s case. Using information from her pc folders (that the church was forced to turn over) she has filed documents in the court to refute the church's latest gambit to try to get rid of her case. It is a chilling account. It will make your blood boil. But for anyone who has any interest in Scientology it is a must read. Ignore the church PR. This IS reality. … [Read more...]
