If you listen to David Miscavige, the expansion of scientology is "unprecedented," "monumental" and apparently knows no bounds. If you visit a scientology organization anywhere on earth you will see with your own eyes the empty buildings that show scientology is smaller and less popular than it has EVER been. If you watch the scientology utterances on social media and sent to their mailing lists, you get to see not just individual orgs, but a glimpse of the bigger picture. And that is what this latest document represents. This is a worldwide aggregation of people on co-audits now, … [Read more...]
More of the BS Expansion Hype
Some follow up to the earlier post about hype expansion news. Lots of amazing expansion that has never come to pass... what Captain Miscavige was saying in 2014. For those of you who aren't familiar, the Golden Age of Tech Phase II is described this way on the scientology website: So, this "47X" expansion occurred between November 2013 and June 2014. 47 times expansion in just 8 months. OMG... I did a posting about this in August 2014: Massive Expansion of Lies Then in February 2016, the claim was 60X in the last 2 years -- … [Read more...]
Hubbard’s Gauge of Scientology’s Success (Failure)
I came across this issue from 1982 the other day. It contains an interesting paragraph: All you have to do is look at where Scientology was in terms of numbers of orgs and missions even a few years back and where it is now to know. All you have to do is count the additional countries using it year by year. All you have to do is count the memberships of the Churches. And you know conclusively that while the enemy goes down, whatever the bombast, Scientology is going UP. "Ron" clearly offers 3 ways of measuring the success of scientology. The number of orgs and missions. The number of " … [Read more...]
Clearing the Planet is Hopelessly Bugged
The claim "we are Clearing our area" or "we are Clearing the planet" is almost a mantra inside the scientology bubble. It seems they believe if they say it often enough, it will make it true. What they are willfully oblivious to is the fact they are doing no such thing. And every measure of this is glaringly obvious. There have been no NEW Class V orgs opened since Taiwan. There are the same number of scientology orgs now as there were in the 80's. The number of missions is shrinking. So too Narconons and all the other front groups. There isn't a single Class V org in … [Read more...]
The Big Lie Rolls On
This is one of the more amazing pieces of bubble-think... It was sent to me for the Thursday Funnies, but this little piece of Facebook genius deserves its own post. What a HUGE accomplishment this is -- they got 2 new people doing OCA's! The Cult Shopping Network is clearly flooding the orgs and missions with curious people. OMG, 2 OCA's is a "Win, win, win." If that is true, and these people are not overwhelmed with new public, then the CSN is a complete failure. But even more interesting: Sunland/Tujunga, according to Lydia Hopwood, consists of 30% scientologists. The … [Read more...]
Fun Facts from AOLA
Here is another of the frequent scientology documents that prove they are lying about their "massive international expansion." Let's look at these one by one. "Highest Ever" number of people solo auditing at AOLA -- 220. Remember, AOLA is the Advanced Org for the entirety of the AMERICAS. Everywhere from Buenos Aires to Winnipeg and Hawaii to Barbados. 220 people (including staff and Sea Org members). Total. This is 220 out of ONE BILLION people in North and South America. That's about ONE out of every 4.5 MILLION people. According to National Geographic, you have a 1 in 3.7 million … [Read more...]
