Maybe the release of GAG II is going to solve the spelling/typo problems that seem to be endemic within the RCS.
The old saying about not even being able to spell your own name right seems to be true, at least in the Ideal, SH Size org that is at the very dawn of a new civilization.
Speaking of GAG II, the big announcement has now been made, and just in time to save the planet:
GAG II is Friday 15 November through Sunday 17 November (gotta have some quality time to do this one right and hard sell all those meters and materials….)
The IAS Event is Friday 29 November and the Patron’s Ball is Saturday 30 November.
New Year’s Event is 27 December.
Can you imagine the pressure that is now going down the lines to press-gang people into being here from mid November to the end of December (good timing holding the IAS event on Thanksgiving weekend — it will give people a good excuse as to why they cannot be picked over by the vultures as they have Thanksgiving commitments — same for people coming here for Christmas).
Apparently the prediction has come true — there will be no street ribbon cutting. Dear Leader cannot get the street closed for enough time to be able to erect a barrier of trees and a 20 foot high fence — so the whole world would be able to witness just how many people He did manage to attract for His most glorious event ever. Guaranteed it is not near the 10,000 Scientologists they claim live in Clearwater, let alone the tens of thousands from around the world…..
BTW – everyone was in such a hurry to forward me the dates, they forgot to mention if Voldemort Himself showed up or whether it was just the RTC Rep that made the date announcement (Harvey Jacques no longer does Graduation when He is not there, His black clad storm troopers handle the task — apparently Harvey has fallen into disfavor). Update: Once again, there was no Voldemort. A statement was read by one of his minions on his behalf announcing the dates. I wonder that he is so arrogant that he doesnt seem to care that people are seeing right before their very eyes that he cannot even keep his promises to show up at Graduation and tell them the dates of the events he has been hyping for months.
But back to the topic of the post. Joburg.
This is one of the FIRST Ideal Orgs.
In 10 YEARS one would imagine this “Ideal Org” strategy could have proven itself workable. Surely that is enough time. After all, the planet’s population increased by a billion people in this time while this pilot was being proven.
And this is the state of Joburg Org. I put up this post earlier this year and it was reposted on “African Scientologists Getting Back In Comm” blog with a short update. It is worth reading again. THIS is the state of the model “Ideal Org.”
Also on the South African blog is another article reprinting some comments by a recent Class V org staff member in Africa. It is very enlightening and worth reading. Insight into the life and mind of a staff member.
It sucks to be Miscavige. It also sucks to be a Sea Org Member. And a staff member. And a public. Or the family of a Corporate Scientologist. Or a friend.
All in all, this subject has been turned into one large SUCK.

On the SP building…this thing is HUGE. Are they going to be moving all delivery into that building now? If they do, it will completely empty out the other buildings. And if they don’t, it will be a huge empty ghost town inside. Either way, it is going to show, big time, that the numbers are dwindling.

Espiritu says
This has the makings of being the biggest bust EVER.
Mi$cavige decided that a “Super Power building” was needed to deliver THE Super Power rundowns which LRH said years ago (in one of his taped Ron’s Journals) would be released in about 6 weeks TO ORGS. It then took DM how many years to construct this huge piece of MEST? And now he is going to open the building and release Super Power as well as GAG II in a 2-day “event”? Ron said in 1978 in the HCOB entitled Tech Correction Roundup that the “mice” had been gnawing at the pillars of the Bridge.
Well, what we’ve had for over 25 years is one huge rat with beaver teeth.
If he was really a man, even a small one, he would use the event to confess his mis-deeds and step down. But alas he is a rodent.
And in the end the people will smell a rat.
Still On Your Side says
The hysterically funny aspect of using hired extras as “Scientologists” so Miscavige can brag about attendance is each one of the extras will put the gig on his/her resume. Miscavige can probably get them to sign a NonDisclosure Agreement about what they see or hear, but I have never heard of any NDA prohibiting an extra from revealing a part on his/her resume. Even if there was a way to include the role in an NDA, there is no way Miscavige can keep all 1000 plus from putting the gig on their resumes, which will then be on their webpages. So, searches for the word “Scientology” in the future will be very interesting when Miscavige’s hired actors’ webpages show up in the searches. He should just can the pretense and use the actors to put on a real dog and pony show called “Miscavige’s Follies.”
Espiritu says
Wow. I might just take “advantage of that”, because I think that I am unofficially declared. But I am just wondering….if I accept this amnesty will I receive a real amnesty or just unoffical amnesty?
Hallie Jane says
It will be a real amnesty, but anyone under the age of 14 can revoke it at any time. It could be put back, if you give money, but is still subject to revoking by anyone at anytime. Does that clear it up?
Jose Chung says
Pity and the 203 attendees are the Mormon Tabernacle Choir David Miscavige
paid in cash ( no refunds) to entertain at the events..
Leonore says
Now I would go see the Mormon Tabernacle Choir in which, incidentally, Heber used to sing. They do put on a good show!
Sejanus says
Am pretty sure that choir would not have a thing to do with MisScammage.
However I bet Cruise, Travolta, Alley and Archer could be doing a quartet of Pink Floyds “Money”.

You know I just thought of this, the bots should really thank all of us in the fringe of the internet for putting pressure on their dear leader. We are the only ones getting him to get anything done. Without us SP’s lil Davey boy would be stalling and then stalling some more.
Mike Rinder says
🙂
shelgold says
Ironic – but true.
The other day the Mayor called upon the parishioners, as citizens of Clearwater, to put pressure on management to have their church follow the rules and be a better neighbor.
You know that ain’t gonna happen.
Aquamarine says
Tony, its very strange but that same thought occurred to me just this afternoon. The Dwarf reads this blog and is helped by it. He actually receives spot on straight-from-the-shoulder advice and incisive commentary from Mike Rinder. Our responses tell him what His cowed staff and sheeple are too afraid to tell him. When He reads this blog, He gets real facts, and real responses to these facts. All He needs to do is mentally filter out the dislike, sarcasm, J & D, etc., and a valuable service to Him remains. (And, yes, I am completely serious.)
Tony DePhillips says
I know you are serious. It’s true. In some weird way we are dm’s seniors and are telling him what to do or what he should do. He will do some parts of it but will screw it up anyways. In sort of a robotic semi propitiating way he is taking orders from us. But as a robot he can’t really do it correctly and continues to screw it all up. I think the HCOB on Robotism covers it very well. “Since he does not act upon orders he is taking responsibility for, he executes orders without fully understanding them.
Further, he executes them in an environment he does not see.
Thus, when forced to produce, he will produce overt products. These are called so because they are not in actual fact useful products but something on one wants and are overt acts in themselves–such as inedible biscuits or a “repair” that is just further breakage.” ~LRH
“Slowness”
“The person is slow because he is moving on other -determinism, is carefully withholding himself and cannot see anyway.”
I personally feel that some of these characterists apply to dm. I do not think that he is purely just a robot but is truly a 2 1/2 %er SP. A truly insane suppressive. In a roundabout way this group is putting justice in on him and his “ethics change” is just false PR and more destructions while at the same time trying to wipe out the imagineary SP’s he sees all around him. He is a true lunatic.
Hallie Jane says
Brilliant! Very insightful.
Aquamarine says
And Channukkah starts early this year, on Nov 27th, the day before Thanksgiving. I’m not Jewish but I think it is inconsiderate to Jewish Scientologists to ask that they forego an important holiday which lasts for 8 days, even if they’re not orthodox or whatever. I personally know a number of non-religious Jewish people who don’t observe the entire 8 days but do close their businesses for the first few days and observe in that manner..
It really does seem like He is giving Himself a built-in excuse for poor attendance at these things.

Joburg-Albert’s comment, (http://backincomm.wordpress.com/2013/10/30/org-staff-crises-management/) among “giggles,” that the public who paid only a little money were “useless eaters” is reprehensible and chilling. This is the real guts of Miscavige’s “theology.” Anyone who doesn’t contribute enough money is a “useless eater.” Why is this disturbing? This is Adolph Hitler’s “theology.” The Jews, the gypsies, the Catholics, the gays, the infirm, the disabled, the elderly, and his political enemies, all led lives “not worthy to be lived” and they were, therefore, “useless eaters.” This is consistent with the organization that Miscavige has built and runs. If you don’t contribute enough money, if you are too old, if you are too ill, if you don’t kiss his feet, if you don’t jump when he says jump, then you are a “useless eater,” whose life is not worthy to be lived…..It’s not new information, we have all thought that Miscavige is a Hitler-wannabe, who runs OSA as Gestapo-wannabes, and who believes, strongly, that the only person who has a life worth living is David Miscavige. I think it’s time that leaders, including other religious leaders, woke up to the reality of Miscavige’s “church.” If he was truthful and called himself a Nazi, they would be falling over themselves to denounce him.
indie8million says
Oooh. That is one step closer to confirming that somehow little David is connected to the Global Elite. Kissinger has said that the “…elderly are useless eaters.”
So if they. Scientology, as a group, are starting to call people the same thing, where did they become acquainted with that phrase? It’s an evil expression.
Here is a short video about the Crown, their views of Useless Eaters and her total worth of 31 trillion dollars. Hmmm…sounds like DM is following their lead. I’m not joking. It looks like he’s trying to accomplish the same thing in the same way – slave labor, massive wealth for him and as little as possible for everyone else. Watch this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7hXUl-N4pMk
Here’s the article of Kissinger’s quotes too: http://www.dailypaul.com/221220/the-elderly-are-useless-eaters-where-did-our-dilemma-start

scnafrica says
The 10th anniversary of the greatest Scientology event in Africa – the opening of the Joburg Ideal Org – is being attended (as I write) by just on 100 public and staff. This is 7.5% of the 1400 that attended the opening event in 2003. Now THAT’S African expansion at a whole new level!
Mike Rinder says
Thanks for the FACTS.
100 people — Wow! They are supposed to have 100 staff on Day and 100 on Foundation, at least 100 Academy students in each org, 100 in the HGC’s and at least 200 Div 6 public. Double it for families and that is 2000 without including “old public” who have completed all their services in the org (which should be thousands over 10 years) plus SO and Mission staff and public and Joburg North and Pretoria staff and public….
But all they could scrape up is 100.
I bet there are a hundred declared people sitting in Joburg right now.
Robert says
Yup, 100 people is nothing. We (the 1,000’s of un-issued declared SPs people) are waiting for the “temporary lift of our SP declares for these IAS events”. After that, we will flood the the Jobur Org.
dankoon says
Jobur? Gawd, I thought that must be some insider slang that is only used in Joburg. Talk about dub-in. Back to cramming on the Data Series for me. Maybe “Jobur” will catch on. Doubt it.

Every subculture and subgroup has its own jargon, but even so I don’t think I’ve ever seen the sloppiness in grammar and punctuation that has come from the mailers that Mike posts here. These are mass mailings and you’re telling me these people don’t proofread their own work, or use spellcheck? It’s dumbfounding how bad these mailers are.
By now the game is known. Anyone who goes to these events has to know they’ll be regged right? At some point “dononation” fatigue has to set in. That, or the ever present realization that on the unofficial start of the holiday shopping and travel season that there’s much better things to spend your money on. Brilliant scheduling, guys. Brilliant.
Miss Tia says
Will they have Heber make an appearance?
indie8million says
Fat chance. Did you see the picture of him at his son’s funeral? He didn’t look so mentally well. Click on the link. He looks like he had been put in DMs tanning bed for a few days before the funeral to give him some color but still looked out of it, as I see it. I talked with Karen about Heber and she said that he’s not all there, mentally since leaving the bilges for 6 years. I would love to see him out. http://blogs.villagevoice.com/runninscared/HeberGErson.jpg

But they did not mention the superpower opening, just GAGII and IAS event

Super Power is supposed to happen on the third day of the 3 day event. First two days are GAG II and last day is Super Power opening.
Jose Chung says
I cannot predict how this all will work out for GAT 2, but it gives the willies
just before all hell breaks lose.
I’m a big fan of American Greed and watched how a con artist operated a multi million dollar ponzi scheme in Hawaii from his prison cell at Nellis Air Force Base in Nevada.
So I predict that GAT 3,4,5 will be released from the Alkatraz of the Rockies or Nellis Air Force Base Prison and the likes. Seems like the Clams never get enough of David Miscavige
Robert says
Mike,
It’s hard to imagine that scheduling the IAS event on Friday the 29th, which is the day after Thanksgiving Thursday 28th, (the most traveled day in the US), is not an intentional and sneaky attempt for DM to create an excuse for the abysmal attendance that is sure to result from such dimwitted scheduling!!??!
I think DM KNOWS any IAS event will be sparsely attended because he knows that every IAS event around the world in the past two years has been in a constant decline. The “jigg is up” so to speak.
All Ponzi schemes must come to an end, which is exactly when large flows of “new” money stop coming in. I heard that in the “hay day” (pre-Debbie Cook 2011 New Years message) most IAS money came from 2nd and 3rd mortgages in CA and FL. Today that “well” is dry as a bone. IAS vultures can’t go back to that well, that’s for sure.
This IAS event is scheduled on the WORST day of the year…. even for any Scientology activity.
I don’t believe this schedule was happenstance or was a mistake or oversight…. it’s too obvious. I think it is (as you said about DM) “transparent bullshit”. It’s so transparent in fact that even some clapping seals will see through it: The IAS is dead.

Idle Morgue says
Scientology is scrambling to hire actors in Florida so they can fill the tent. The IAS is round the clock fund raising to pay the actors. Gold will be there to take pictures of the actors and then the Co$ will photo shoop the photos to make it look like Scientology has members.
These photos will then be fed to the clubbed seals to convince them Scientology is working, growing and has members. So hurry and donate to the IAS so you can pay to convince yourself that you belong to a “Church”!!
I love how easy it is to “as is” this stuff!! LOL
Benjamin says
As more and more actors are hired the more first-hand accounts they’ll be about dealing with Scientology Inc. The smoke and mirrors are being exposed a little more each day.
Jane Doe says
Here’s a way Davie can spent that mountain of money he has: pay the actors and actresses hired to fill the place and to make the video of the grand opening etc, and then pay them hush money to make sure they cannot talk about their experience. He’ll be video taping them signing away their rights to communicate real soon now. This is what your donations buy!
DMSCOHB says
hush money or a non-disclosure agreement with a stupidly high liquid damages amount to silence any attempt to speak?
Aquamarine says
I wonder if event actors are put on cans before hiring them.
“Are you one of Mike’s Moles?”
Tony DePhillips says
Amazing they misspelled Joburg. Unbelievable.
Idle Morgue says
Well, lets apply the “tech”!
Is there a word you don’t understand?
“Yes – Scientology”!
Thank you – let’s look at how the World defines “Scientology”.
Here we go – “Scientology is an evil cult that destroys lives, lies to its members, bankrupts them, brain washes them with mind control methods and ruins families. It was started by a con man named L Ron Hubbard who took his Science Fiction skills to design a religion where he could sell secrets for a lot of money. Hence Xenu was born. L Ron Hubbard destroyed his families (he had several) and went into hiding from the Law in the 80’s where he died a total failure”!
“Now, use it in a sentence”.
“Ok – Scientology is a scam”.
“VWD – Your noodle is fleeting”!
Margaret says
I have an idea. Let’s launch a GAT II and build a Super Power building with oiliness machines! That will certainly solve the problem!
Lou, we know YSCOHB!! Are you getting all this down?!
Forrest Crane says
What does LRH say about ‘Mistakes being made’? Something about suppression is occurring.
Calvin B Duffield says
Perhaps, Tony, Until you come to terms with the fact that here in South Africa, since the launch of democ(k)racy, in 1994, the literacy rates have fallen so low, that even school “teachers” at government schools, are barely able to function as such, being technically dumbed down by a collapsed education system. As Wendy M can attest, this is no exaggeration.
Tony DePhillips says
Hi Calvin,
Okay, I will come to terms with it. Okay there, I just came to terms…snap.
My point is even if an area has a low literacy rate, can’t the “Ideal” Org spell Joburg correctly on a PROMO piece???!! I mean this is the GOLDEN AGE of tech man!!! These people are super OT’s saving the planet and want hundreds of thousands of dollars. The first step is learning how to spell the Org’s name correctly don’t you think??
Lol!!
Calvin B Duffield says
Exactly Tony…that’s what I keep asking our politicians…”Don’t you think??”
🙂
SILVIA says
Trying to save the day, He scheduled Joburg’s Ideal Org opening on Nov. 2nd so there will be something to announce on the GAG II and IAS events…but the video would be done with hired ‘artists’ so they can pretend a crowded opening.
The problem here, with the scheduling of GAG and IAS events, is going to be horrific for the public as they “won’t be given OK to leave” Flag (under threats of course) and will be forced to stay two weeks at Flag between the Nov. event days…simply their Routing Forms to leave won’t be signed by the black dressed troopers, period. They should be prepared to loose jobs, income and a pleasant moment.
Aquamarine says
Sylvia, yes, I bet you’re right and public will be pressured to stay for the entire 2 weeks.
I’ll bet the OOTs will be ordered to remain as well. Supposedly they were going to be let go after the GAT II announcement, but, hey, not so fast….on Nov 29th, that there big ole’ tent is gonna need them warm bodies, yessiree, all thousand of them.
Anyone making bets on this? (C’mon, Dwarf, make me wrong! Free the OOTs after the 17th!)
Robert says
I got a call to attend the IAS event and when I said “I think I was declared SP for reading things on the internet, but nothing was ever published”, she said not to worry, that there was a query uplines about getting a temporary lifting of these un-issued SP declares. It seems that most of the field has been declared so they are having a hard time filling seats.
Mike Rinder says
Robert — one thing you can predict from this. There will soon be another “unpublished declare” — on whoever sent the query “uplines.”
They will be declared an “SP Sympathizer.”
remoteviewed says
Mike,
My personal experience is that the person “acknowledges” (newly defined as pretends to agree with the person entirely) then moves on to the next number after writing that person up.
Then what happens next is that the person contacted is secretly declared if they aren’t already or labeled “disaffected” and dead filed.
Zephyr says
Right on Mike 🙂
The “SP Sympathizer” needs to be added to the ‘list of types of SP declares’.
Greta
Wendy M says
Hahahahaha – a ‘temporary” lifting of the unpublished declares. No doubt, when you are out of $$ the “temporary” runs out too. I am pretty sure huge swathes of the field have been declared ….or are the subject of a whispering campaign. Next thing we know there will be an amnesty so that they can fill seats/the coffers. I doubt that anyone who is now out really wants back in.
Jane Doe says
Yep, just wait, you’ll see an Amnesty declared so that all those subject to whispering campaigns and “rumored SP Declares” that aren’t even written up, can come back into the fold. Ha! We’ll see how many take advantage of the “welcome back” signs and actually go back. No one wants to go back. Sucks to be Davie.
Aquamarine says
Robert, at first I thought you were being sarcastic, but this temporary SP Declare lifting could be actually being considered?
Isn’t the Radical Church just overflowing with the milk of human kindness? I’m so touched by this.
Problem is, RCS, that I have declared YOU suppressive, and I will decide if and/or when YOU deserve an amnesty from ME.
As they say, “Don’t call me, I’ll call you”.
remoteviewed says
Personally I doubt if there will ever be an Amnesty.
Because in order to issue one they’d have to admit being wrong to some extent, that they have a rancorous field who hates their guts and finally they’d have to be willing to change which I wouldn’t place any bets on them being willing to do.
Instead I see them pretending that everything is fine and that they can do no wrong and that any trouble they are having can be traced to a few “disaffected squirrels” and “Esp Ps.”
Self examination is currently not one of their strong points. As far as I can see the Church of Scientology has closed terminals with any suppressive valence they have opposed in the past.
And all those terms that they quietly removed from the Study Tapes like op term, term, combination term, GPM, Goals Opposed, LI R/S etc still apply. Even more so now because they are no longer aware of their mechanics.
Ronnie Bell says
Problem is, RCS, that I have declared YOU suppressive, and I will decide if and/or when YOU deserve an amnesty from ME.
BOOYAH!!
Jane Doe says
Right on Aquamarine! You go! And tell them, “don’t let the door hit you on the way out!”
indie8million says
Aqua, Ronnie and Jane! YES!
Honestly, we should start an anonymous snail mail letter writing campaign that says something like we’re saying here. Flood the letters into the orgs in their own envelopes that say something like, “David Miscavige has been declared for these crimes…” and list them out.
The HCOs will have to open them.
Anybody have any better ideas about what to put in the envelopes?
indie8million says
Oh, and I forgot to add, “We’re not coming back until he’s removed from post and tried for and convicted of fraud in a court of law. Well, IF we come back. But your attic has to be cleaned out, regardless. That guy is killing your dynamics and you know it. If you try to get him declared, you’ll get declared and be sent out here with us. We’ll welcome you with all of the LRH trained auditors and C/S’s. You might actually get in session out here.”
Hallie Jane says
Yes! The rcs is FIRED!
Carcha says
This is ridiculous. It makes a travesty of the tech. Declared Clear. Declared suppressive. Oh, no, wait a minute, we made a mistake … Undeclared Clear, Undeclared SP … no, wait ….
This is a mockery, a disgusting puerile travesty. As if an individual’s case state were a matter of legislation!! Something to be determined by others!! The whole idea of Scientology is to rehabilitate the individual to the point where he unwinds his aberrations, and operates on his self-determinism.
I shudder to think how badly the rest of the tech is being trampled underfoot. One muddy footprint after another until there are several inches of mud and nothing is visible.
Why has the church failed? It was based on facts and technology. Wherever the facts and technology were not understood, they could not be applied, and there was no church there. Wherever the tech is understood and applied correctly, there you have the church. The location and the building are unimportant. What is it the Bible says? Something about wherever two or three of you are gathered together, there shall be the House of the Lord? The difference is that in Scientology we have the technology to unravel the aberrations, whatever those may be! Otherwise, the spirit is the same. This is appropriate here, and it is on a Sunday, besides.
I know I probably invalidate the crap out of everybody, probably. I’m a little pissed off. OK? Probably not OK. Sorry. I’ll get it exactly right some day. Promise. That’s what all this is about. Getting it exactly right. Easy as pie once you get it, but a wipeout with sand in your mouth when you get it wrong. It is NOT impossible to get this right, you know? If it is possible to build an airplane to carry 300 some odd plus passengers from one coast to the other in five hours, then it certainly is possible to learn and apply Scientology tech correctly. Damn people can’t even pull a MWH. Declared Clear. Declared SP. Declared Org. No people, just pieces of paper. Symbols.
The tech dictionary definition of “insanity” — “6. the best definition of which I know would be: the person widely believes that the symbols are the things.”
Scientology is about the “things” themselves, and those “things” are people, individuals, persons, beings, thetans. And the belief in the basic goodness of man.
That’s my sermon for a Sunday.
Numbers 6:24-26
The Lord bless thee, and keep thee:
The Lord make his face shine upon thee, and be gracious unto thee:
The Lord lift up his countenance upon thee, and give thee peace.
The Lord make you look up your MU’s and keep your ducks in a row. Now go forth and prosper, we have to sweep the floors. Shoo!
Hallie Jane says
I understand what you’ve said utterly and completely Carcha. Good sermon. FULL study tech has been abandoned in the rcs and that ‘s a key element of it’s demise. Full conceptual understanding is no longer needed and wanted because that makes sassy, strong, self determined beings, and they create total dev’t because they won’t do what they’re told!! The implanted wrong why (evil transcriptionist), has diverted attention from the fact that applying full study tech is often very hard work, and it’s actually the DUTY of the church to get this vital sub product, to achieve well trained auditors. dm just has too many other cool things to do……tracking tents and all. Malpractice is much less work.
OverRun says
Really? A Temporary Lifting? (you’re kidding right?) So exciting! Should we send in our pictures? Schedule our sec checks? (I’m dying here! lol)
Question: Just how long with this “temporary lifting” of the unissued declares last?
Answer : Just long enough to attend the most grueling event/reg cycle ever so you can make the last Big Gasp donation of your lifetime..
Quick – Book your Accomo’s, mortgage your house, sell your children, borrow from what’s left of your pension – you do NOT want to miss your last opportunity to move up in SP status before the window slams shut!
Who wouldn’t rather be a declared SILVER MERITORIOUS SP rather than just a lowly declared CRUSADER or PATRON SP

1. “A temporary lifting of these un-issued SP Declares” – that’s a good one. Looking for an off-policy solution to work around an off-policy “solution” (unissued declares) to solve a big problem caused by a myriad of off-policy actions accumulated over the years. The Golden Age of Make-it-up-as-you-go-along” or “The Golden Age of Decline and Fall.”
2. This schedule of events is completely nuts. DM forcing all of Scientology to revolve around his off-policy “Int events” seems to be morphing into an obsession for him. His Ideal Scene would be all captive Scientologists forced to move to the Flag Land Base and live there forever, running over to the tents at DM’s whim, to stand and applaud like trained seals to his mastubatory self-worshipping incoherent drivel, and then stand and deliver funds from their cards and bank accounts into his control.

When it all implodes, Davie will be left alone, all his henchmen long since destroyed in the Hole, and all his flock scattered to the winds. He will be left holding his little winkie saying ‘Garp.” (i.e., “The World According to Garp” book)

“The Golden Age of Make-it-up-as-you-go-along”…I’m going to steal that from you, SSOA. 🙂
Jane Doe says
Hey Cooper! Why don’t you take advantage of the reversal of the SP Declares just long enough to get back in there and write a check on a closed account to them for an ungodly large amount of money? That will have them drooling and practically peeing themselves with greed and happiness over the huge check. And then when it bounces, it will be a hellacious ordeal for them. If they ask you about the bounced check, just tell them you did research on the internet and determined that DM is an SP and that you are taking your business and your money elsewhere.
Aquamarine says
Jane, good heavens!
Deliberately bouncing a check to the IAS! That is the naughtiest idea you’ve ever had and I’m shocked and I love it. That’s the kind of communication they understand The only kind.
Tim Hallinan says
This is a great idea. Wouldn’t it be great if hundreds of people did it? So you’d pay a bank fine for a bounced check — it’d be a lot cheaper than writing one they could cash.
Valerie says
Not to rain on anyone’s parade, but I don’t think felony check fraud would be worth the joke on RCS. It is a funny joke, but they take their money very seriously and I doubt that they would hesitate to have you imprisoned for check fraud if you wrote them a check on a closed account. Just sayin . . .
Hallie Jane says
I got a copy of my declare and I would never give back anything I’m so proud of. It’s getting framed.
gato rojo says
The RCS has filled itself to the brim with solutions to problems that become problems. Over and over and over again.

Looks like DM is having to create the posters now.

Mike,
The very reason that the Ideal Org strategy is not working is BECAUSE the world population is increasing at such an alarming rate! Indeed, no longer are bodies being inhabited by such Sterling Beings as David Miscavige. Yes, now there are so many bodies that any old DB (Degraded Being) can easily get one.
And that is the crux of the problem, DB’s do not want Scientology. In fact, they are THE PRIMARY IMPEDIMENT to others getting scientology. You know, by causing so many problems like starvation and homelessness…
Never fear though! In his infinite wisdom, prescience and omnipotence, Fearless Leader has solved the problem – the GOLDEN AGE OF TECH III, THE FINAL SOLUTION is on the horizon! Soon after GATII is implemented, GATIII will follow closely on it’s heels, eliminating all of those supernumerary DB occupied bodies once and for all.
The details aren’t clear at this point, but the FINAL SOLUTION is rumoured to involve placing all of the extra bodies in volcanos and blowing them up with hydrogen bombs in a final blaze of expansion “the likes of which this universe has never seen before!”
Or something like that. Anyways, it’s gonna be spectacular.
Jane Doe says
Good one Scott!

we funny ovez here
Jane Doe says
Yep, more than one way to clear a planet! lol

Clear it after a fashion. And grease is the word, uh, oiliness.

I checked Kayak and on the dates announced for the GAG 2 release (Nov 14-18)a plane ticket round trip from LA is a little over 350 dollars round trip with plenty of seats available , maybe the word hasn’t gotten out, but I don’t see a huge demand from the Thousands upon thousands of LA Scientologists. Also there appears to be plenty of hotel space available so far that weekend and many choices from budget to luxury so no spike in demand on Hotels. To have the IAS event on Thanksgiving weekend, is beyond ridiculous on so many levels, that it’s probably best to leave it at that.

Return flights from Gatwick running at well in excess of £500 ($800)

Martin Padfield says
So far no mention of these events on official Flag web site, AOSH UK or London web sites. Is it a super-sekrit event for a select few and some paid actors?
remoteviewed says
A lot of LA Scientologists wouldn’t be caught dead at Frag.
Yeah, yeah.
Bad joke.
Anyhoo…
When I was still “in” the Mecca of Technical Deception had lost its appeal when most LA Scientologist sent there by their Ravenous “FSMs” ‘cept maybe Cruise were denied service according to some Super Sekrit BFO that was “eyes only” to Flag Staff.
Like fer instance they’d reg some poor sucker for tons of auditing then when he arrived at Flub to get his case crushed they’d tell’im he was ineligible and had to do some eligibility program that made the road to sainthood seem like a walk in the park.
The only Angelenos who went were the unfortunate ones who were on that endless tread mill known as OT VII where a 6 month check took 6 months or more so they ended up having to move there.
Least that’s the way it was back in ’05.
The only one’s who’ll probably be there from the city of the angels you could probably count on the fingers of one hand.
Probably the Wisemans and the Jensens and that’s about it.
Likely Cruise but many of us consider that the guy is really a gray alien who isn’t from around here and are hoping he’ll go back to whatever planet he came from.
