A Special Correspondent sent this to me and it is an interesting study for a couple of reasons. First -- you can see the contempt LRH had for The Auditor being "damagingly commercial" and "putting emphasis on speed through courses." How do you think he would view the current scene in scientology? The statements made in this Auditor are positively pathetic compared to what is said today about the "speed up the Bridge" and with GAT II ESPECIALLY focused on the "speed of training." But even worse, commercialism pervades EVERYTHING in scientology these days -- it is ALL about the m … [Read more...]
The OTC Security Hammer Is Dropping
Apparently hushmail didnt solve the problem, so now they have a new message right at the top of the OTC minutes: Note: The minutes are for the sole use of Valley OTC members. All members receive a copy. Please do not forward the minutes to anyone else for any reason. Apparently there are all sorts of measures being taken to try to stem the flow of information outside the bubble. One might ask why that is of such concern. Of course it is merely information they WANT to impart to the "OTC members" -- if it is true, how could it be so damaging? But that is like asking why if you are opening a … [Read more...]
Scientology E Meter with Ball and Chain
Well we just got a copy of David Miscavige's boldest attempt ever to lock down total control of all Scientology audiitng. A good try Dave, but I think the flock has already fled. It is two documents, one that licenses the software and one that licenses the actual meter itself. You can download a PDF of this ball and chain right here. You can also click on the images below to get an idea of the pages and content. Keep in mind this has to be signed and returned to Scientology BEFORE you get your e-meter. I was going to excerpt the most egregious efforts to suppress all auditing outside of Cap … [Read more...]
Me and My Big Mouth: Food For Thought Chapter 2
Ok, so my name is Ian Lee. Back on August 15th I wrote an article for Mike's blog. At the time I was in good standing and wanted to voice my opinions of some things that are happening within Scientology. You can and should read that article here before you continue. The specific reason I wrote it was that a friend of mine had posted a voicemail of a mutual friend of ours "disconnecting" from her. The practice which the church of Scientology denies exists. So I decided to put that assertion to a test. I was in good standing. I'm free to communicate. I'll say some stuff and see what … [Read more...]
Mike Eldredge Letter to David Miscavige & Co.
I have known Mike Eldredge since December 1975 when he and his wife Penny were the first two new recruits to arrive at Flag in Clearwater. At the time the location was still confidential and they had not been told where they were going until they were given tickets at the airport. They were excited to be at Flag, but a little disappointed as they had only come from Miami! Mike went on to become a cramming officer, auditor and C/S who worked on many projects directly for LRH. I did a few Missions with him at various times. This write up only touches upon his history and experience. Perhaps he … [Read more...]
Superpower Step One – The Ethics Repair List
This was submitted by one of our Special Correspondents -- Roy McGregor. I felt it worthy of its own post rather than just being a comment. I do believe there is another element not really covered here that is going to make this fail. People are conditioned how to think in the church. They KNOW what they can and cannot say. Even in session. It is why you do not find people coming up with David Miscavige or Julian Schwartz or Charmaine Roger as their PTS Items. Factually, being "in session" within the church of Scientology is impossible these days. There are too many taboos. And thus c … [Read more...]
Scientology Disconnection — Who Qualifies To Be Declared?
This is the second in a series of postings examining the subject of Scientology disconnection practices. See Disconnection -- Scientology's Nasty Secret. Who qualifies for disconnection? The simple answer is “anyone deemed an undesirable.” It used to be true that one disconnected from Suppressive Persons if they could not be handled. And Suppressive Persons are denominated as those individuals who display the majority of characteristics of the anti-social personality. Old School Think According to “old school” Scientology thinking: As they only comprise 20% of the population and as on … [Read more...]
