A new article in US Magazine that previews an upcoming interview with Leah elicited an amazing response from David Miscavige through his ventriloquist dummy Karin Pouw. Failing to address any of the substantive things talked about, it is a typical scientology "attack the attacker" response: The Church of Scientology’s spokesperson Karin Pouw responded to Remini’s allegations in a statement to Us. “While we would prefer to ignore yet another of Leah Remini’s over-the-top rants aimed at getting attention, she unfortunately continues to incite waves of anti-religious hate crimes. Ms. … [Read more...]

John Sweeney’s Classic Scientology Expose
I was looking through old scientology shows and came across this one from 2010. I had not watched it in many years, but found it fascinating. Obviously, my views about scientology have changed. But I have a much greater appreciation for the show now having worked on 3 seasons of Scientology and The Aftermath. This is a terrific piece of investigative reporting and a finely crafted show that contains a LOT of information. John Sweeney and his brilliant producer Sarah Mole did a masterful job of putting this together. They battled with the legal constraints imposed on them by the … [Read more...]
The Disappeared
Why is there no President of Church of Scientology International? Heber Jentzsch, after being "disappeared" years ago is now represented as being "retired" -- but there is no new President. In fact, there isn't even a spokesman, let alone a President (who is supposed to be the lead spokesperson). Heber, once a very public figure, is no longer seen outside of the razor wire topped fence of Golden Era Productions. I last saw him in late 2006 in the Hole. Sleeping on the floor and eating slop, guarded 24 hours a day. Who is the Executive Director International? Guillaume Lesevre held … [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...]

The Pride of Africa Get it? Pride... Problem is nobody is "rising up"... They're sinking into oblivion. Artistic ability Perhaps you could find someone who has some to design your next poster. This is an abomination. You have it all As long as all does not include time or money. Or your own thoughts. Going St Hill Size Hahaha. First step, a single car in your parking lot and anyone on service. One of the deadest of the dead ideal orgs. Might as well have a poster "Going to the Moon, join us." This is Auditor's … [Read more...]
Scientology, L. Ron Hubbard, and Reefer Madness
Our old friend Terra Cognita is back with some more thoughts... Scientology, L. Ron Hubbard, and Reefer Madness LRH was hung up on dope. If drugs weren’t the scourge of his universe they were certainly a bane of his existence. LRH convinced himself and his followers that drugs were invented by evil psychiatrists quadrillions of years ago in order to control and enslave people. According to him, we’ve been popping pills since the beginning of time, and drugs are a major cause for our dullness. Ironically, he was never able to treat his own dependency and died a lonely and addicted man … [Read more...]
“Planetary Dissemination”?
Apparently this is what passes for "dissemination" these days. You know, if Planetary Clearing was really a thing, you would think they would spend some of their money to open some missions and orgs in India. Scientology is not banned there like it is in China. It's a MASSIVE population and there has never been a single org in the entire country. Instead, they ask people for money to buy books to hand to "opinion leaders" and call this "planetary Dissemination at the correct order of magnitude." And just as a note, the crazy stats about India you include only prove your complete … [Read more...]
Scientology, Confront, and Fear
Our old friend, Terra Cognita has returned with another thought provoking essay. Scientology, Confront, and Fear One of the more celebrated concepts in Scientology has to do with “confront.” From Training Routine 0 on the beginning Communications Course, to ferreting out demons on the OT Levels, the ability to confront is paramount in achieving spiritual freedom. A Scientologist is nothing without excellent confront. The old Scientology tech dictionary lists four definitions for the word. 1. An action of being able to face. 2. The ability to be there comfortably and perceive. 3. Confront i … [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...]

Hi, give me your money Just wanted to make sure you knew that is what I am here for. Off the crossroads of the world? That's good? I thought you wanted to clear the world? That's the Freewinds line... Though they spend most of their time tied to a dock. Yep, IMpossible You had it right Not really... You haven't reached .001% of these people in all your years of existence. Where will your name be? Perhaps left off the list like so many others who gave and gave and then were declared. No money back. No name on any … [Read more...]
