When Miscavige feels most threatened, he invariably pulls the 1993 IAS event out of mothballs for re-airing in all orgs. This is Miscavige's crowning achievement and when he feels his PR is being assaulted, in his mind this is the antidote. Getting people to come into an org to watch this video yet again is a Sisyphean task. There is no current scientologist who has not seen it numerous times. And there are no NEW scientologists. So it's a tough sell. Miscavige is convinced this is the best reputation damage control he can do. Not come out in public and actually answer questions or make … [Read more...]

The Missing Executives of Scientology
A lot of scientologists remember Guillaume Lesevre, though the COB has done his best to ensure he is forgotten. Guillaume is the "Executive Director International" or ED Int. This is the position L. Ron Hubbard specifically created to "wear my hat" running scientology. In fact, Hubbard did an analysis of his inability to "turn over his hat" and wrote a policy about it which created this position. Guillaume has been the "ED Int" since the early 80's. I had the job of filling this position on direct orders of Hubbard and scoured the globe for the best executive -- Guillaume had … [Read more...]
Scientology End Phenomena
It's Saturday, so our old friend Terra Cognita has something for us. I will likely not be doing a post tomorrow -- attending the TV Critics Awards tonight. The Aftermath is nominated for an award. Fingers crossed. … [Read more...]
Scientology Food Chain
A day later than usual, but here is the latest offering from Terra Cognita Scientology Food Chain I don’t remember where exactly, but somewhere L. Ron Hubbard talked about and created his hierarchy of churches in which new public would start their services at lower orgs and work their way up the lines, ultimately ending up on the Freewinds. He created this system because, as usual, he knew better. This design system has never worked and Scientology churches at every level have been insolvent and failing for decades. The Hierarchy At the bottom of this hierarchy, LRH created F … [Read more...]
Thursday Funnies
Seven Years... ...and still not SH Size. Let alone producing more Clears in their zone than triplets born on the third Friday of each month. Not really a celebration at all. Just another ploy to reg and recruit. Graduation... ...every other week?? Not enough completions to make it worthwhile to do it each week? And they need to add another floor to their building? Is this a Joke? Who is going to pay $25 to hear Joke talking about ethics and discipline? Wonder what makes Joke an expert? Record Breaking? The largest trash relief organization on … [Read more...]
Busting Open The Gates to the Bridge
Remember the hype about how the bridge would be flooded with people thanks to reaching the billions with the new KCET studio? That scientology was going to have its own, uncorrupted line to the world? And that this was all going to be happening by the summer solstice on 21 June? Well? What happened? It's a month later? Still nothing to show for it. There was even word that there was going to be a "scientology TV channel"? This white elephant cost tens of millions of dollars and is a duplicate of the tens of millions of dollars invested in the same studios at Golden Era. Now … [Read more...]
Scientology Can’t Promote Scientology Using Scientology Anymore
It's Saturday. Yay Terra Cognita Scientology Can’t Promote Scientology Using Scientology Anymore Besides the obvious, what do all these groups have in common? The Foundation for a Drug-Free World. The Way to Happiness Foundation. Applied Scholastics. Narconon. Criminon. WISE. The answer: they’re all businesses under the auspices of Scientology with the goal of driving new people into their orgs and missions. Sure they have other, lesser purposes, but their ultimate objective is to create new Scientologists, who in turn, theoretically add to the coffers of the mother chu … [Read more...]
Another Big Question on Planetary Clearing
Last week I posed a question -- why doesn't scientology use some of its billions to incentivize becoming an auditor in pursuit of clearing the planet . One of our eagle-eyed readers was prompted to pose the question -- how about making the books and lectures cheaper and more accessible? Hubbard tells his followers that for every 35 books in the hands of the public it will make one scientologist. In today's world -- ALL his books and all the lectures could be put on digital media for a few dollars. They are willing to do it with Hubbards fiction as you can see below. The technology … [Read more...]
Marty Rathbun’s Meltdown
The spiders on Marty's walls are getting larger and more active and he appears to be increasingly more concerned that he has to explain his hallucinations to the world. I have tended to ignore pretty much everything he has said, and I could care less what he says about me personally (all anyone need do is go back and look at many of his laudatory comments about me to see that both versions of me that he preached about cannot be true). But I do not appreciate him taking aim at people who have suffered harm at the hands of scientology and calling them liars. Especially when they have … [Read more...]
Scientology’s Code of Honor
It's Saturday, must be time for Terra! Scientology’s Code of Honor A code of honor sounds like a good thing to carry around in a wallet; a concise set of moral guidelines; principles on which to build a solid foundation. And yet...not all codes are equal. Some justify acts of unethical behavior in individuals. Some justify unethical conduct by organizations. Let’s see how L. Ron Hubbard’s Code of Honor stacks up. (Having just read Marty Rathbun’s latest diatribe, I couldn’t help but think how parts of this code might relate to him.) “Never desert a comrade in need, in dan … [Read more...]
