The weekly funnies were pre-empted by the Aftermath Announcement on Thursday. I didn't want to waste the work that went into putting this together, and there are some classics in here... Rhythm of the Night... In the Afternoon? With sketches performed by our staff. They're one mixed up bunch in Malmo With two decades of Clearwater PR experience... She sure knows how to create that PR Area Control Bet this is a raver... A conference is supported by Government of India I wonder who exactly and if they know this is … [Read more...]

More on the “Wog” Face of the Freewinds
This is a follow up to the recent post about Carol Miles: The Face of the Freewinds: A "Wog". Valeska sent me this write up with some further information, and it is an opportunity to republish the photo of Carol that was sent in by a reader. Also at the end I have included a comment posted by Jeff Hawkins about how Carol came to be the "Face of the Freewinds". Valeska wrote: Carol was sent to the RPF in late 2008 for being suicidal and having "case on post" and for wanting to leave the Sea Org. This was orchestrated by Lurie Belotti, (RTC Rep Ship) and Sue Price, (CO CMO Ship). She … [Read more...]
Join scientology Staff: No Pay but we “Offer Total Freedom”
This poster has few words but says an awful lot. The "notice" at the bottom is clearly a legal disclaimer put there by lawyers to protect scientology. Scientology in Australia got into trouble with the government for not paying staff and providing inadequate health care and other benefits afforded all workers in Australia. They asserted that everyone on staff is a "volunteer" and pretty much got away with it. Can you imagine a "volunteer" of any other organization signing a 5 year contract of employment (maybe it's designated a "Volunteer Agreement" - but in spite of its name that is … [Read more...]
The Face of the Freewinds: “A Wog”
For many years in the early 2000's, the "face" of the Freewinds was Carol Miles, the "Executive Officer"/"Public Officer." She was the face and voice (with a wonderfully genteel english accent) of Freewinds promotional videos. She narrated tours of the ship and appeared at the end of each Freewinds video with a pitch for people to come and partake in the Freewinds experience. There has been some earlier commentary on the internet that mentioned Carol. She disappeared from public view around 2007 (like me), and as with Heber, Ray Mithoff, Guillaume Lesevre and so many others, nobody … [Read more...]
Thursday Funnies
Don't worry, you will... Many times Seriously? Next. Ideal Survivor -- where the last person to resist the regges wins. I bet this will be a lot of fun for the family. Get the kids up there pledging their piggy banks. How about an ideal uniform Or at least a clean one. The Chan Man is back Along with Raffy the Rascal. A pair of grifters of the first order. Yeah, scientology will do that to you... Delude you into thinking you have the solutions. Funny how nothing was actually resolved. Just that she thinks they're "not … [Read more...]
The Scientology Mindset
I have written some posts about the delusion that pervades the scientology bubble. Anything possibly negative about scientology is to be avoided at all costs -- of course it is not true anyway as scientology is the "only game where everyone wins" according to L. Ron Hubbard. And that means if you don't "win" it is on you. Because scientology has never done ANYTHING wrong. This Facebook posting typifies the bubble-think perfectly: The "SP's" are of course anyone who does not follow in lockstep with scientology dicta. Primary on this list are those who speak about the abuses they … [Read more...]
Dublin “ideal” Org is “Clearing Europe”
These guys are thinking big... At least 10X expansion across their zone (whatever that may be). Not content with merely Clearing Ireland, they are taking on the whole Continent. Why someone from Sweden would be in Dublin is anyone's guess -- there IS an ideal org in Malmo. And in Copenhagen. Amsterdam. Brussels. A couple in England. And a few in Germany, Switzerland and Italy that are all closer. Unless they just can't find anyone in Ireland who wants to go Clear so that have to reach outside their island and try to persuade a bunch of foreigners to make the trip? But what is most … [Read more...]
The Sad Tale of Jobur Ideal Org – Update
Back in 2014 I did a post entitled Lights Out at Jobur Org. It chronicled the demise of this, the FIRST ideal org. In the time-honored tradition of scientology promo piece illiteracy, they had previously announced their 10 year anniversary with a typo in their own name -- thus the use of "Jobur" in subsequent posts at this blog: Now, we are coming up to 16 years of operation of this first, model ideal org. And they have just sent out a new promotional item -- and this one has no typos. But it does contain a couple of startling facts. This is the largest org in Africa. A … [Read more...]
Infinity and Beyond!
Terra Cognita is back with some more thought provoking words. Infinity and Beyond! Scientology isn’t surviving. It won’t survive. It can’t survive. For the time being, the only thing keeping it afloat is getting members to pay for the next this-is-gonna-change-everything, planet-busting project. Over the last few decades, the church has launched one after another. Rest assured, once every org goes “ideal,” church leader, David Miscavige, has something else up his sleeve that will change the world and clear the planet once and for all. Often, these projects involve acquiring new bui … [Read more...]
Sailing into the Sunset
The Annual "Maiden Voyage" celebration aboard the Freewinds was as underwhelming as it was overhyped. I have finally found a few minutes to review the International Scientology News edition reporting on the "week of events"... A few things of note. Of course, the feature of the magazine was Captain Miscavige, Chairman of the Bored, Ecclesiastical Leader of the Scientology Religion for Tax Purposes Only and leading candidate for the role of Uncle Martin in the Netflix remake of My Favorite Martian... He still proudly (and cynically) wears his "wedding band" so nobody asks him … [Read more...]
