The Failed Scientology Mission Network

November 13, 2021 By Mike Rinder 44 Comments

This is the latest list of the best missions in the world. There is not a single Mission on the list from Russia. It was formerly the stronghold of Missions for scientology. The largest representation is 7 in Taiwan. It appears to be the only place on earth where scientology might be expanding. The US is badly under-represented with only 4 of the top 25 Missions in the world. The rest of the English speaking world has 0. Canada, UK, Australia, NZ, S. Africa...

OK, this is an interesting piece that gives the relative activity in the "continent." Scientology calls this "ANZO" which stands for Australia, New Zealand and Oceania. In Australia there are "ideal" orgs at the AO, and in Sydney, Melbourne and Perth. In New Zealand there is an "ideal" org in Auckland. There is nothing in "Oceania". There are two other orgs in the "continental area": Taiwan and Japan. That is it for the entirety of Asia and the Indian SubContinent.

Crazy L. Ron Hubbard's 1980 letter to Pres. Reagan explaining his plan for a national sales tax and abolishing the IRS. It was a key theme of #scientology's war on the IRS... until they got exemption. Do today's proponents know? Full letter in blog post.

@MikeRinder just finished reading your book. I've been anti-scientology for about 30 years. Your book was so informative as to the mindset and the bullying, gaslighting etc. Every through I watched the documentaries and listened to the podcast, I found this book so much (/2)
