The latest news from the almighty Flag OTC. I highlighted some particularly interesting or bizarre passages. These people exemplify the most deluded bubble-dwellers, I am almost embarrassed for these people reading this stuff. Saving lives by donating to the IAS? Perhaps saving the life of a reg who will not be punished for having downstats. You can get your name on the wall -- but do NOT do anything that gets you in trouble between now and whenever this place opens because your name will not only NOT be on the wall, you will not even be allowed inside the building. What is a … [Read more...]
Flag OT Committee — Aligning OT Forces
Once again, as if by magic, the Flag OT Committee Minutes appeared. A new status above humanitarian! Nothing more important to scientologists than status. A poem! Oh a poem. And about collecting money! What could more in keeping with the scientology "christmas spirit." There will be "good conversation (LRH references)"? Of course no real scientologist can engage in a conversation without citing an LRH reference. You would not want to be accused of thinking for yourself and being off Source. Interesting that 30 "confirmeds" for one of these events seems to be acceptable. Out … [Read more...]
Flag OTC Minutes
One of our regular, if irregular, features: the often odd, sometimes silly, but always informative and entertaining "minutes" from the Flag OTC. Super Powered Bubbles Champagne and her crew -- supposedly the top tier of the scientology public world -- are poster children for the bubble-think that is endemic in scientology. They literally see what they are told to see. Period. I have highlighted just a few of the most notable points in their latest edition of "pat ourselves on the back" news. 80 public "recently" routed onto Solo NOTs. Wonder how recently? No specifics is always … [Read more...]
Flag OT Committee
The always entertaining Flag OT Committee just sent out their latest minutes. Lots of interesting information in here, I have highlighted some of the lowlights. But the big news here is that the ONLY ideal org ever to have its stats up week after week... The ONLY one EVER. Isn't that amazing? they seem to think this is great news! All those other ideal orgs are not expanding. Just like we have been saying. Poor old Columbus couldn't even get a single person to the Maiden Voyage to represent them. And now they're striving for 1000 onto Solo NOTs. Forget about 10,000. Don't forget … [Read more...]
It’s Only the Money
Well, this is as blatant as it gets. The "OT Committee", according to Hubbard policy is to help orgs expand and get people onto and up the bridge. That is apparently "old" "tech". Nowadays their role is to exclusively collect money. And that about sums up the state of scientology today. After sending out the above, the next notification is this: Well, let me take one guess as to what this "new" program consists of... Nothing to do with getting money of course. … [Read more...]
Flag OTC Minutes
Some epic news hot off the press from the mighty Flag OT Committee... Fundraising, fundraising and more fundraising. Orlando NOW has 35 staff. Wow! And they are "doing very well on recruiting." Once again, scientology discloses the fact they are spending tens of millions of dollars for a building for people that do not exist. 35 staff (and you can bet this figure is bs as EVERY figure ever presented by scientology is ALWAYS bs) is supposed to be the size of a Mission. They have another 165 staff to go to be SH size and a real "ideal org." They're not even 20% of the way … [Read more...]
Flag OTC
Bubbles Champagne and her gang of merry fools are still bubbling along... As always, they reveal more than they think with their hype-minutes. If you were looking for theetie-weetie... Jim Wavell (can't even spell his name right...) was the cook on the Apollo. In a "galley" that was right out of a Dickens novel. His interactions with Hubbard were minimal or zero -- he might have spotted him once when Hubbard ventured onto the dock, but that was about all. Don't get me wrong, he is a nice guy, but it's like having someone do a briefing on what the Beatles were like because they … [Read more...]
Flag OTC Minutes & LRH Aftermath
The latest and greatest from the biggest and best OT Committee on earth. Some interesting tidbits in here. As announced by the ex-WDC member Anna Paddock (one of the morons who showed up at the Rathbun's to check on their "squirreling") -- the "Clear event" was a "big success" with 30 attendees. Remember, scientology claims 12,000+ members in the Tampa Bay area. Doesn't appear to be a "big success" even if there is only 10% of that number of scientologists. David Pomeranz's wife is the "OT IX and X Get Ready Pjt Officer"... Must be good to have a lifetime and beyond appointment. She … [Read more...]
Flag OTC News
Some interesting information here. Plenty of evidence things are not all peachy at Flag. Just a few comments: They are trying to double the number of IAS members by reducing the annual membership fee and sending a mailing to everyone who has ever bought a book! Ha. Good luck with that. Although they disclose the REAL intent -- to get people to higher statuses and that is ONLY about money. THE most successful Clear event yet had 30 attendees. Yes, 30. And they then go on to say there are more Clears than any other case level... There are less than 50,000 people on earth who … [Read more...]
An Org in Trouble
One of our South African Special Correspondents sent us the latest news from Durban Org. It's not looking good for scientology in Durban. Her comments follow, and then the item to which she refers. This is Durban org’s OTC Newsletter for August. To all intents and purposes it looks like they’re sliding into total oblivion. First pic shows something that happened in July - and at Joburg Org. 6 people – 2 of whom are Sea Org (on the left – they’re a married couple posted at Durban Org). The two chaps kneeling I THINK might also be staff. The other two are Nick & Marina Howarth – pretty … [Read more...]
