Remember when they used to issue these commendations BEFORE the "Ideal Org" opened and publish their "OTC Minutes" listing the attendees? They don't do that any more because they were embarrassed about them repeatedly being leaked and appearing on this blog. Ah, for the good old days... And remember the 10X expansion that is guaranteed when an org has its ribbon yanked by the only True Leader, David Miscavige? Well, Valley has just announced their progress towards achieving 10X. They now have 30 active OTC members. But wait a second. It … [Read more...]
Miscavige Ribbon Yanking Shrinkage
With no fanfare or pre-announcement (scared of being arrested perhaps?), David Miscavige, the True Leader of scientology snuck into Stuttgart and yanked his ribbon. A month ago. He made a quick in and out dash into the danger zone of the Federal Republic of Germany. What is most remarkable is that they managed to get anyone at all to speak on a podium at a scientology event in Germany -- but the "dignitaries" were less than stellar, though they did present a problem in that three of them were quite tall. Even with a forced perspective shot of his standing in front of them, size was … [Read more...]
Ideal Org Staff Pay
Remember the infamous "You Can Have It All" campaign to join ideal org staff in Melbourne? And the "Every Ideal Org = 10X expansion" hype that has been going on for years? Here is the real truth about "having it all" on staff of an ideal org. This staff member at Pasadena cannot afford the rent for a ROOM. Remember, Pasadena is one of the early "ideal orgs" -- True Leader yanked his ribbon there in July 2010. It is an org that had big whales supporting it, Craig and Sally Jensen (what happened to them??), located right in downtown Pasadena (not in some industrial park) and enjoys one … [Read more...]
Getting the Stats Up – 1 kid at a time
No doubt these children were counted on the Auckland "ideal" org stats as a "paid intro service completions". How sad... Next week, the "Art course". No doubt they will read a few words of wisdom on the subject of art from Hubbard (a world famous artist?), be handed some crayons and paper and voila, instant stats. The week after that, perhaps the "play on the swings" course with a $5 donation to keep the stats going up. They will give them some "tech" about playing games and that too will qualify for a course completion. Anyone who has been around orgs can see this sort of thing a … [Read more...]
Not Making Planetary Clearing A Reality
OK - let’s take a moment and take the planetary Clearing challenge once again. LRH proclaims it's possible, so it must be true right? Don't these amazing "no numbers" graphs prove it? They show them at every event and the sheeple seem to lap them up. Let's ask the experts: How DO you get 327 million Americans to cross the Bridge? How DO you Clear the planet? (not just "make Planetary Clearing a reality") Well, according to scientology postulated math, all you need do is make every org ideal. So, let’s look at the BEST ideal org. The “model” that was touted repeatedly by True Lea … [Read more...]
Ideal Orgs and Front Groups
More evidence that the pretense of scientology is coming unglued. Stevens Creek is an “ideal org”. It has been since 2005 (Miscavige “rededictaed” it in 2012 because they put new videos in the lobby and they try to pretend it’s only been ideal since 2012). There are three other ideal orgs within 50 miles. They should be well on their way to Clearing the entire Bay Area by now. Add to that the constant hype about the huge “4th dynamic campaigns” that are “salvaging the world” from the ravages of drugs, psychiatry and human rights violations and you can see the hype laid bare. They are h … [Read more...]
Headhunters Part II
The reward has gone up! Just last week it was $250 to $500. I wonder where this instant money is coming from? Certainly not from Orlando's Financial Planning Committee... Perhaps they have a whale who is tossing in some bucks (rather than joining staff themselves -- too smart for that I guess). Wonder if anyone is left in the housing they arranged for the Orlando "staff" who were flown in for the grand opening? You can bet that place emptied out a week after the ribbon yanking. They proudly announced at the time they were up to 120 staff. If they have 12 staff today I would be … [Read more...]
Scientology Staff Headhunter Bonus
This is a new one on me -- and also a reflection of just how desperate things have become inside the "ideal orgs." Why not offer the person who joins staff the $500? It will be the last money they will get from scientology, and they will need it... Instead they are giving money to anyone who can offer someone ELSE up to join staff (presumably they are too smart to do so themselves). "Hey, if you volunteer someone else for this suicide mission we will pay YOU good money." They used to give commissions for selling books and getting money in. Now they are doing it for getting staff … [Read more...]
Give Ireland Back to the Irish
Somehow, the ONLY people who seem to be in the Dublin "ideal org" are from other countries. Now I will freely admit that I love to visit Ireland. It is truly a magical country and the people are wonderful. But why did Miscavige need to plonk an ideal down there when all there has ever been in Ireland is a bankrupt mission? And as the months go by, it is proving by its OWN promotion that it cannot get the Irish to come near its 10 million dollar vanity project. It seems the only people participating in services there are those who have been pilfered from other "ideal" orgs around the … [Read more...]
327 MILLION
This is a VERY good question.... They just throw out the horrendous reality that they have to get 327 million people to Clear. Even though the vast majority of ideal orgs are in the US, those ideal orgs combined do not produce 10 Clears a week. Even if they produced 100, or even 1,000 a week (they would be going psycho if that ever happened) that is still only 50,000 in a year. The population of the US is increasing by 3 million per year. They are falling behind by 3 million every year, even though they keep opening "ideal orgs". The fact is these orgs are NOT increasing the … [Read more...]
