I was surprised to see one of the scientology OSA Bots retweet something about the scientology Super Bowl ad from something calling itself MultiFaith CPAC. Anyone who watched the game no doubt saw the Jesus Gets Us ads and this group put the scientology ad into the same category of "religion represented well." It's impossible any organization not influenced ("safepointed") by scientology would put out such a tone-deaf and ridiculous tweet. This is their Twitter home page: As you can see, it is a Council of the LA Sheriff's Department! Scientology has had a long history with … [Read more...]

OT Phenomena How "OT" is it to visit a friend in a foreign city and forget to bring his address and phone number?? Curing amnesia on the "Whole Track"? Hahaha The OT levels don't cure amnesia after breakfast. No big surprise If you are flying in from all corners of the world in order to take advantage of the low prices they offer at AO Africa (compared to the other AO's, the prices are not "low"), you probably don't want to be paying airfares for repeat trips. It's a long way to Africa and a lot of money... It's the final race to the finish … [Read more...]

What Does It Take? A LOT more than 20 people posing for a photo... It's why you are still not done 20 years into this program. Listen to Mr. Alistair Bennet And he knows? Because he has a Sea Org belt on? A Fundamental M/U Black Friday is supposed to be where you offer big discounts... Inspiration? More like desperation to get anyone to attend... The Chan Man Cometh All the way to Melbourne? Wonder who is paying for this? Thanksgiving Potluck? I thought it was supposed to be a turkey … [Read more...]

This one is going to be the real story.... We are circling the drain, more unpopular than ever, stats going down, more leaving than coming in newly. So, give us your money. Any excuse for a fundraiser... They're supposed to be GIVING OUT candy. They don't even know what Halloween is in Australia. Gosh, what happened to Africa? Maybe they're not doing so hot despite their promotional pieces that always say they are? Then again, AOSHEU could be full of bs too. Trick and treats? I think they might not understand the Halloween concept … [Read more...]

These are the "top" scientology orgs... Wow, if Joburg is way up there, and Silicon Valley, OMG things are even worse than I had thought. They are both completely and utterly empty... We are gearing up... A guy on his Method 1 is their Technical Team? They are going to be gearing up for a LOOONG time. There are 77 neighborhoods in Chicago So, that means you should join staff. Wonder if they know Baskin Robbins has 43 flavors? That should be good for some signups too. And did you realize Chicago has TWO MLB teams? Everyone should sign up on that … [Read more...]

The effects from our recent event? An AO creaming their jeans about being able to deliver the Purif and Objectives? Now THAT'S expansion! The Advanced Org nobody needed... They're so focused on getting anyone in for anything because there are no public moving up the Bridge they might as well call themselves the "Continental Org" and close every other org down and they still wouldn't come close to using all their space. What about locals NOT on service? They would NEVER turn anyone away if they could pay.... And they have an IAS card and clearance … [Read more...]
Scientology Fiction
Wait, I thought scientology was NOT fiction? The true indication of a cult of personality. Everything about the person is seen as being perfect/important/amazing. So, Hubbard's fiction is seen as the "best" and people are expected to go along to their local scientology organization and sit and listen to one of these silly stories about "Howdy" and be impressed. Impressed by what? Hubbard's talent for spinning tall tales? Like "Revolt in the Stars" (the story of Xenu he turned into a stillborn film script). Just stop and think about this for a second. It's actually creepy. How weird … [Read more...]

Bunny Rabbits and Freddie Mercury Impersonators What symbolizes ideal orgs better than this? And a trip to the Blue Mountains... Brisbane, Adelaide and Canberra will be ideal in no time. Forget about the rest of Asia and the Pacific. First? Is that a sad state of affairs if this is true? Did you see the latest census numbers from Australia where 2000 people in the whole country identify as scientologists? And three of their six orgs are still not ideal... Yeah, sure there are dozens every week Not Canada Day Graduation... Chris … [Read more...]

Not a whole lot of funnies this week. But as always, there are some good ones! The Scam Goes On How, after 20 years, people are still turning over cash for this proven failed program is hard to fathom. Hooray for my sec check! I'm in the middle of OT VII and I got a sec check! Wow. And then I found out I was in Power! Wow. Such incredible tech!!!! But as a Solo NOTs auditor and one of the top beings in the universe, how is it that you need anyone else to clean up your OWs or tell you what condition to apply? Oh Canada... Lagging … [Read more...]

So many people coming!!! Yeah, right. And it's going to be monumental. And milestone. It's the food stupid All about the food. The seminar is secondary. This is the event that so many people are coming to... Really? Another "virtual" briefing... Doesn't seem very OT -- cause over Matter, Energy, Space and Time? The Freewinds is LIVE! And they are doing Div 6 seminars (really just excuses to try to get some bodies to reg). It's a little odd they keep promoting themselves as being "off the crossroads of the … [Read more...]
