Wandering Wick Wore out his welcome in Melbourne. Now in his homeland creating big effects... Yawn. I guess he has been officially put out to pasture. He probably has a medical condition the SO doesn't want to pay for so they sent him back to NZ to take advantage of the free healthcare for citizens. What does it take? Just some crazy wigs and an LRH quote it seems. Oh, and your money. Graduation for Human Rights Day? Not enough graduates for a graduation. Not enough dones for an event about Human Rights. I know, let's put them … [Read more...]
Mission Fundraising Failing
Things are desperate in the scientology world. A mission in the heart of scientology's only real stronghold — Clearwater is confined strictly to Flag while there are numerous orgs in the SoCal area and more scientologists there than anywhere in the world — this Mission is halfway between Valley and Pasadena ideal orgs and a few miles from "dissemination central" at SuMP and Big Blue. If they cannot survive living off auditing and training there, it's not going to happen anywhere. And a second one came in from Brand Blvd Msn which has got to be a little bit embarrassing when you read … [Read more...]
Thursday Funnies
Freedom for all California... One more empty building and California will be free at last! Not a chance ANYONE actually buys this. But the rah-rah seems to impress. No we don't Not a one has EVER come back Nothing quite like "Big Blue" It's ugly, dirty and empty. The celebration may be memorable, but not for the right reasons. They're trying to sound fancy... If you have ever been to the "PAC Canteen" you will understand the crazy of them serving "lobster tail" Scientology Thanksgiving Not only are they NOT providing … [Read more...]
We ARE Going St Hill Size in 3 Weeks For SURE
I just happened across a copy of this letter from February 2015. This was the big push to try to get a St Hill Size org for March 13th. There hadn't been one for more than a decade (and there still isn't one today -- importing Sea Org members to man LA Org doesnt count, nor does sending Sea Org members to Africa to man a new "AO") and this was becoming embarrassing. So a "12 man Sea Org, Saint Hill Size Mission" was sent in to ensure it happened. They failed. Obviously. It didn't get announced as SH Size in 2015, nor in any year since. And anyone who has been by the Pasadena … [Read more...]
Scientology Chutes and Ladders
Someone sent this latest scientology promotion piece to me and it highlights the insanity that is the world inside the bubble. I don't know Peggy Alexandre, but I do know Helena Kobrin. She is a LONG term scientologist who is infamous for her efforts seeking to squash criticism of scientology on the internet. Back in the 90's she was on NOTs. I recall she then did OT VI and was auditing on Solo NOTs subsequently, but this may not be the case. I am sure someone can see if she ever completed OT VII or OT VIII. Regardless, she had climbed the ladder in scientology to near the top, and … [Read more...]
Children in Scientology
Some have been incredulous when told that young children participate in scientology auditing and training. And that it is PAID FOR. Well, here is a new promo piece from the "ideal" org in Pasadena, right under the nose of Church of Scientology International. They are promoting to bring in your children 3 MONTHS AND UP for "group processing." Yes, 3 MONTHS. I have never seen this before. It is really desperate when an org is promoting to service 3 month old infants. This is not something sent out on April Fool's Day.... Here are a couple of other … [Read more...]
Pasadena Is Going To Do It This Time. Really.
After years of promises, now we know: in 6 weeks Pasadena IS going to be "SH Size". Remember when they had the Sea Org Mission "making them SH Size"? It was about 6 months ago. Fizzled. Remember when they opened the "Ideal Org" in 2010. Nothing. Even with their "ideal org" 6 years later they are still not SH Size. How can that be? L.Ron Hubbard said in the original birthday game that announced "SH Size" as a target that it only took a matter of weeks to accomplish. That they just wanted a big booming org and they got one. In 2003 Miscavige said the "why" for orgs not making it to SH … [Read more...]
A New Civilization Built of Empty Buildings
Really? This is the best they have? OT Ambassadors from "61 org fields" did not even fill the ballroom of the Ft Harrison. 61 org fields is more than half all the orgs on earth. And this is THE big deal in scientology, more important than anything else with more time and effort and force devoted to it than any program in the history of scientology. I would estimate there are about 125 people in this photo -- they either didn't have 250 people there or they couldn't persuade them to be in a photoshoot. More likely the former as they routinely exaggerate everything even when there is a … [Read more...]
Height of Hypocrisy?
Wonder how Lori Hodgson, Cindy Plahuta, Mary Kahn, Sara Goldberg, Lois Reisdorf and so many others feel about how scientology "honors" mothers. Scientology presents itself as champions of the family. Masters of communication and relationships. They proclaim communication is the "universal solvent." Yet there are repeated examples of scientology tearing families apart. Forbidding communication. And destroying relationships and lives. The control mechanism of disconnection can no longer be brushed under the carpet as the church has tried to do for decades. Pretending it is an "individual … [Read more...]
COB Has Spoke: Pasadena Is Bestest
Dear Leader has, according to the Pasadena OT Committee, deemed Pasadena: "has the most upstat staff, the most upstat OTC members, the most upstat public, in the most upstat area on the planet" I suspect no other orgs have been informed of this. If this is to "show it can be done for the rest of the world!" you would imagine that a more typical org would be chosen... Not the richest (and most arrogant). He has already proven how it can(not) be done in LA Org. Why another one so close? Why not Denver? Or Malmo? Or even London or Rome? But he has a little secret Kevin -- … [Read more...]
