Every scientologist has done the PTS/SP Course. Most good scientologists have done the course more than once and have been sent to retread it when they are deemed to have become "PTS" again -- in itself pretty good evidence the course does not work. But then again, this is one of the most often used explanations as to why the "tech didn't work" -- "you cannot make/lose your gains if you are PTS." And even though the graduate of this course has "mastered the tech" of how to handle suppression and SPs, they do not then get to choose who they may or may not be connected to -- they are told by … [Read more...]

Thursday Funnies
Someone commented last week that this would be the 100th edition of Thursday Funnies.... And I think that is correct based on the numbering of the link. \ Quite a centenary. And we have a lot of funnies for today. It must be noted that these weekly funnies would not be possible without the support of many who forward the information to me each week. Tampa Has No Speakers How bizarre - this org is nearly "double SH Size" and they don't have anyone to deliver a Tone Scale lecture other than importing a mercenary blood sucker. More strange quotes... Many scientologists … [Read more...]
Freewinds Desperation
Things are desperate aboard the Moneywinds it seems. All those spectacular seminars by the world's most voracious "FSM's" do not appear to be doing the trick. Nor the "how to make money" seminars from CO FSSO and her crew who cannot generate enough income to buy the fuel to sail out of port. So, they are trying to get people there with give-aways. It tells you everything you need to know about the state of the "Top of the Bridge" of scientology that they have to try and entice people to get others to arrive -- with a SPECIAL AWARD for OT VIIIs that can be conned into going to the ship to … [Read more...]
More Ideal Fail: Phoenix…
This is the state of the Phoenix "ideal" org. The have put out a "Big announcement." Might even be epic. Milestone. Unprecedented. TWO people "graduated" something this week. Likely they finished reading a book. Yes, TWO. And it is such big news they sent out a promotional piece for it. Now THAT'S massive international, straight up and vertical, 63X expansion. ...and Twin Cities Just in case anyone still had doubts that perhaps Phoenix was just out of step with the rest of the straight up and vertical ideal org expansion, there is this from Twin … [Read more...]
A Lone VM Answers The Call
Once again, Scientology's own "PR" exposes the embarrassing truth about the scientology world. Though they repeatedly boast having "the largest private relief force on earth" (or some variation of this) that attend every major disaster, somehow apart from the photo ops the church puts out, nobody else in the world seems to know anything about them or notice their presence. That is because they are far from being a "force." They are a ragtag collection of people who are rounded up, persuaded to pay their own way to a disaster site, given a t-shirt and expected to pose for … [Read more...]

AOSHANZO
Big news. AOSHANZO opens tomorrow. There will be A "Special guest speaker" - why they are afraid to say his name is anyone's guess. Nobody is supposed to know he is there? Any enterprising media in Australia will know Miscavige is in town and even what hotel he is staying at. And there ARE some enterprising media in Australia who would love to ask Mr. Miscavige a few questions. But the best news of all is that this will be an opening "unlike any other!" Hah. And if you believe that I have a bridge I would like to sell you that spans Sydney Harbor. This event will be EXACTLY like all the … [Read more...]

It's not a Freewinds event - so there is no $30 fee OMG... Battlefield Earth NOT a NY Times bestseller again... Remember when they announced it? But it has NOT appeared on any bestseller list this year. A Verbal Tech Party? Back in the day, nobody would have DARED write something like this. Labor for Valley Just a few more years of blood, sweat and tears to go before they have a larger, emptier building like all the others... Survey Data Someone filled this in... Honestly. The International OT Boom Between AOSHUK … [Read more...]
