For about 30 years now the FSO has been pushing an arbitrary target of "10,000 onto or through OT VII" as the solution to "handling the planet." It comes from a twisted interpretation of this quote from a 1952 lecture: "...at any one time on earth there were not more than about 10,000 people of a caliber that was sufficient to do a little steering or leading..." Clive Rabey, the point man for the FSO on this matter, explained it in Source Mag like this: "It was a mathematical equation, all extrapolated out. From the real physical universe effects this would create in terms of case gain and … [Read more...]
We Never Deliver What We Promise
Here is a new twist. You are in the middle of a service (one of Miscavige's certified "On Source" checksheets that came with the "Golden Age of Tech") and He reverts it back to an earlier version ("just how LRH intended it"), raises the price and then expects you to pay for the "upgrade". Mid-service. Wow. Wonder if they ever thought of recrediting people for all the extra auditing they had to get in the "old" GAT Bridge before the release of the new, streamlined, extra on-Sourcy "upgraded" GAT II Bridge? You know, the "pilot" that was being delivered at Flag for 9 years while the Class V … [Read more...]
Scientologists Running Around In Circles
The hype is now rolling for the Running Program (Cause Resurgence Rundown) and it is fascinating to see. Somehow it encapsulates so much of what is wrong with the over-the-top efforts to sell Scientology. As it is repeated and expanded it devalues anything of worth in the subject. Now the claims are that running around in a circle for days on end is a powerful OT rundown ...from LRH research on the whole track.... and this is amazing technology never before seen in this society and age. (?) Oh come now. Calm down a bit don't you think? It's just RUNNING! In circles no les … [Read more...]
NO DATA ON THIS IS TO BE POSTED ON ANY SOCIAL MEDIA OF ANY KIND (This blog is AntiSocial Media so It’s OK….)
The lunacy games continue. The Scientologists Facebook page is all aflutter. It is truly a comedy show. Steven Colbert could do an entire week of shows with this material. Amongst all the hyperventilating exteriorization and OT powers on display, dire warnings are surfacing. There are holes in the dike. Here are some fun posts for your reading pleasure. First, we have an admonition from the Admin that unless the whole package is presented correctly, people could get the wrong idea. They might think it's just a bunch of random hot air and bits of paper held together by hype and chutzpah. O … [Read more...]
New Shots from Inside Ft Harrison and The Oak Coven
One of our Special Correspondents sent in these photos of the SP Building this morning. It's looking like all will be ready to roll for the momentous occasion. It's going to take a mighty big pair of scissors to cut that ribbon.... And in keeping with tradition, somehow they have found a way to include a phallic symbol in the backdrop Meanwhile, in preparation for the influx of registered ticket holders, the new "The Terrace" restaurant was opened in the Oak Coven. It was witnessed by a standing room only crowd of FSO staff and outer org trainees. … [Read more...]
A Timeless Moment in Wholetrack History. Huh?
Facebook Police Chief and ex-SO, Jojo Zawawi reveals some interesting facts in her latest posting on the Facebook "Scientologists" group. Apparently her effort is to "D/A" the spoof email that was sent out by thetaburst informing one and all that the dates of the events may change. But she also reveals some other interesting news: There will be no showings at Missions. There will be no repeat showings and no DVD's made. But gosh, if this is so damned important, why not let everyone see it? And why no "repeat showings" (don't count on it) and no DVD's available. Simple answer: when Ma … [Read more...]
Random Facebook Mutterings from The Bubble
Some random thoughts from the Scientologists FaceBook page. The tension is mounting. They are getting giddy with excitement. I must credit Miscavige. This is a real PT Barnum effort. The gullible masses are drooling just waiting for Him to tell them how much money that have to turn over this weekend. The comments alongside the photo are reproduced below for your reading pleasure.... History in the making! Brown-nosing 101. Gary Wattman is a master. I wonder if he would still be gushing if he heard what "COB" said about him.... 1000 remaining local Sci … [Read more...]
Counter In-tent-ion Update — The Circus is Coming to Town
Charlie Frago of the Tampa Bay Times has provided a new update on the requirements the church has to meet to satisfy the city for the GAG II/Sooper Power weekend of over-the-top back-patting and self-congratulations that the planet is at last now being cleared by a building. Looks like the city is basically allowing the church to close off Fort Harrison to hold the ribbon cutting. This is good news for all outside observers. Glimpses will be had of the magnificent celebrations, what He has to say will be heard ringing through the streets of Clearwater for believer and non-believers alike, … [Read more...]
The Squeeze Is On
See the story just published in the Tampa Bay Times about the plans the church just filed with the city concerning the upcoming events. Of course, in typical fashion they submit them two weeks before the scheduled events, demanding over-the-top special treatment. The usual time for applications such as these is 30 days. They are asking for Ft Harrison Ave to be closed entirely from Friday to Sunday evening. And all sorts of sidewalk closures. If the city doesnt bow to their demands there will be squeals of "discrimination" echoing through the empty halls of the SP building. Chopping down … [Read more...]
Too Little Too Late
The disasters just keep on rolling. These three emails came in this morning. Larry, Moe and Curly Joe couldn't make this more slapstick.... First, after years in the "planning" SMI is sending out an URGENT email that must be answered TODAY to give information about delivering "GAG II." Wonder what happens to the Missions that DONT have trained C/Ses, Co-Audit Sups and Auditors (ie practically every "Mission" listed on Scientology.org)? With GAG II "imminent" this is like asking at the altar whether your bride is a virgin. It's a bit late for that sort of "Oh, I forgot to check...." The … [Read more...]
