Thursday Funnies
Jazz potluck? And an R&B Dutch treat. A Rock and Roll buffet and an orchestral bake-off. Back by popular demand Try lip syncing this while you are playing your air guitar with no socks on: "Loser" (it's a song by Beck) Flag is getting personal And they are "quite literally" going to rock your world with a video. OMG. And the D/CO Flag is personally inviting you because Flag is now 100% accessible -- providing you have enough money... They keep getting weirder and weirder. The video is "unheard of" (?) Maybe because nobody is listening, … [Read more...]
Fear: That Which Drives the Church of Scientology
A new piece from the author of the recent post "An Evaluation of Scientology." Fear: That Which Drives the Church of Scientology Religions go through cycles. They begin as seemingly benevolent and benign organizations with the intention of improving conditions and answering the basic questions of life. After a while, though, many—some would say all—devolve into strictly controlled practices ruled by fear in order to control their members and solidify their power base. The Church of Scientology has followed this pattern and is steeped in a culture of fear, permeating every aspe … [Read more...]
The Golden Age Of Narconon
If they consider THIS to be the Golden Age of Narconon, it pretty much tells you everything you need to know about the "Golden Age" moniker... Never in its history has Narconon been confronted with so many lawsuits resulting from deaths and abuses at its facilities. At no time has there been the volume of negative media coverage Narconon boasts today. The reputation of Narconon is at its lowest ever ebb -- so much so that Miscavige has attempted to revive it by opening "model" "celebrity" Narconons that have flashed into the pan and then gone black as fast as their ribbons have been … [Read more...]
AOLA Is Booming!!
Once again, out of the mouths of babes... No wonder the "command team" in PAC was replaced. And interestingly, in this era of unprecedented expansion, the "ideal" AO executives in AOSHUK and AOSHEU have also been "replaced." I guess these "ideal" AO's aren't doing too well. And the proof of it is contained in this message from AOLA. The "ideal" AOLA has a single course room where they deliver Student Hat, PTS/SP, the Basics AND the Solo Course. Back in the day it would have been unthinkable to have anything else delivered in the Solo Course room. Let alone a "basics" and … [Read more...]
SuMP Stories
The lies roll off their tongues so easily. The SuMP (scientology's useless media productions) is the next big thing that is going to absolutely, definitely bring about planetary clearing for reelz. But as with everything like this, the absurd joke of this is also very revealing of the desperation inside the bubble. This poor sap is "ordered" to relay this information. The SuMP is STILL not open, though the opening has been scheduled twice now and canceled. I assume whoever wrote this actually believes the opening of this white elephant is going to drive in masses of people to … [Read more...]
Video Confessions
Regraded Being had another engagement. Will be back next week. Scientology has a sick new tactic right out of the North Korea playbook. You have likely seen videos of POW's "confessing" and denouncing imperialist America. We saw Peter Schless paraded before the cameras calling Ron Miscavige a lousy musician. Now they have taken it to an even lower level. This GMA segment on Ron Miscavige's book contains two bizarre statements from Lori Hodgson's children. (Around 2:55) In typical scientology style they have been coached to "attack the attacker" by claiming it is "more important for … [Read more...]
Thursday Funnies
Promise X3?? More and more cryptic -- they actually think this somehow encourages people to give money? Moneywinds They will do anything to get you there so they can milk you dry once you arrive. "Cheap flights to eternity" has a ring to it... Ideal America... Dream on people. You only have orgs in 10 of the 28 states (including DC and PR)you are responsible for. And only 5 of those have ideal orgs. After 12 years you are less than 20% of the way to having an SINGLE ideal org in every state. You don't even don't even have an ideal org in Chicago, Boston, … [Read more...]
An Evaluation Of Scientology
This was sent to me by someone who wishes to remain anonymous at this time. She is not declared, and has recently been on org lines. I find it interesting to read the observations of someone who has been inside orgs VERY recently. I come to a different conclusion about what must be done, but I agree with many of these observations. I have stated a number of times my belief that all dianetics and scientology materials should be made available online for free and the subject will live or die based purely on its workability and value to mankind). It is somewhat reassuring to know there … [Read more...]
Scientology’s “President”
Though this "PR Newswire release" is in ENGLISH with a title that claims "Church President Describes Basic Beliefs..." if you read the article you will see that the "President" who is doing the describing (apparently in english?) is the "President" of the church of scientology in Madrid, Spain. Once again, it highlights the huge omission of the "President Church of Scientology International". Heber Jentzsch has been disappeared in the great tradition of oppressive dictatorships through history. He is written out of history. There is no explanation for his absence at the most important … [Read more...]
