This statement epitomizes the mindset of the scientology bubble. Their city (fill in name) is where scientology can flourish because it's such a wonderful place, filled with amazing people (and when they are trying to recruit they add how great the schools are, the art scene is, the delicious food, the museums... anything they can think of). It's like their city is the unique petri dish with just the right ingredients for the experiment to finally succeed. It's all so bright and hopeful -- and absolutely absurd. But, despite all the wonderful things and amazing people, "everyone in (fill … [Read more...]

This one is going to be the real story.... We are circling the drain, more unpopular than ever, stats going down, more leaving than coming in newly. So, give us your money. Any excuse for a fundraiser... They're supposed to be GIVING OUT candy. They don't even know what Halloween is in Australia. Gosh, what happened to Africa? Maybe they're not doing so hot despite their promotional pieces that always say they are? Then again, AOSHEU could be full of bs too. Trick and treats? I think they might not understand the Halloween concept … [Read more...]

Back after our Alaska vacation -- which was wonderful. It's a breathtaking experience, unfortunately no photos do justice to its sheer scope and grandeur. There are a few more funnies than usual as it's 2 weeks worth, so some are a little dated: Unimpressive Numbers They really think that 10 OT levels completed in a week is going to accomplish anything? I see only two OTV's and most are OT IV (which along with OT 1 are the fastest levels). One NOT's completion per week is not going to get the 10,000 onto or through Solo NOTs for a LOOOONG … [Read more...]

AO Africa?? Never seems to reflect "Africa"... There's one token representative on the left of the shot. Africa? She's from Germany. Not at AOSHEU which is just across the border? No wonder... They are promoting "public are flying in from all over the world". Apparently there aren't enough scientologists in Africa to keep an AO busy Accepting Applications from Upstat Persons Not really true. ANYBODY qualifies. And they're not "accepting applications" they are begging for anyone from anywhere to join … [Read more...]

Lots of funnies about the Dear Leader in the Sky this week -- celebrating his birth on this earth, not so much his departure though (come to think of it, why isn't January 24th celebrated as the day he completed his OT work on this prison planet?). All people on this planet? He is helping them by giving money to renovate a building in Cape Town?? Hey Michal, why dont you join the Sea Org? Catching up to the internet era... Aren't they afraid people are going to see things they shouldn't by fishing around with their phones? A … [Read more...]
