Next in the series -- the infamous "Pass The Pen" drill hat write up. Another proven "successful technique" of how to shame your marks into forking over more money. Scientology -- the religion that coverts other people's money. See the earlier parts of this series here, here, and here. … [Read more...]
It’s ALL About The Money.
Here is yet ANOTHER "seminar" on making money pushed by the "church" of scientology. It's thrust upon the world by the "Senior Administrative Consultant" (whatever that is?) of the "new" LA Org. Obviously a Sea Org member, as everyone in LA Org is now SO, which makes this guy an expert on money -- he rakes in and manages an annual income of $2500 in a good year. Of course, what would a scientology promotional piece be without a glaring typo -- commonly in the headline as here (also check out the copyright notice). For good measure, and just to reinforce the point, though in point … [Read more...]

Masters of MES Not doing so well on the Time part. These are two of the four invitations received on the SAME DAY by a single person. Two for the 7:00pm version of the event and two for the 7:30 version -- both at the Ft Harrison because apparently they can no longer fill Ruth Eckerd. Gavin Potter. Again. David Miscavige's clone is back to teach you once again how to make money to give to the church. I bet he attracted a massive crowd in Inglewood. Talk about a fish out of water.... The dianetics volcano and 47X expansion graph This is … [Read more...]
The Greatest Event Ever – Til The Next One
Well, this should be interesting. The largest scientology community on earth is getting going early on the hard sell to show up to see the David Miscavige show live. I hope someone in LA will sacrifice themselves for 3 hours of pain so we get a report on the attendance and activities. It will be VERY telling how full the Shrine is. If they cannot round up 6300 people from all over California, including all the Sea Org staff and all those ideal orgs, it would be a VERY poor show. In fact, according to the hype, they are coming from all over the world. I guess they ALREADY know they cannot … [Read more...]
Conversations With Scientologists
A couple of people have recently sent me copies of email correspondence they have had with people in the church. They were not working together, but both hit upon the same concept: responding to church efforts to get new people in or collect money from existing public and using this as an opportunity to present some facts to people they might not otherwise be able to reach. It is also interesting to see the reactions, responses and "pitches" that are employed. This first is with a Mission who had advertised a Big League Sales Seminar. The responses from the mission person are in … [Read more...]
A Price Rise Is Coming
Buy now! There is no reason on earth to further increase the price of these already absurdly over-priced books and CD's other than to try and increase immediate sales. Miscavige has been promoting for years how all books are printed "in house" in "state of the art printing facilities" and the same with the CD's. And they are all produced with Sea Org lower than third world wage workers. And yet what costs 20 cents to produce (a CD) is sold for $40. And the only real cost of the books is the paper (which they of course buy in bulk) and shipping (in containers) so a book that costs $4 to … [Read more...]
Thursday Funnies
Likely it will be omitted... There are dozens, if not hundreds, of people who have been PROMISED exactly this, but because they no longer goosestep in lockstep, their names don't appear on the plaque in the building they gave a great deal of money to purchase. They are prevented from even entering "their" building, but of course, they don't get their money back. And by the time they get around to opening these things, there will be hundreds and thousands more long gone... Maybe they should put up a chalkboard listing the names rather than an engraved … [Read more...]
Bridge Will “Finance” You
The full transformation into a bank is well underway. Why have people take out loans with a bank or run their credit cards to the limit when they can extend credit with "in house financing". Of course, this is EASY to do when you are selling from already manufactured inventory with massive markups. There is little risk of any loss. After all, these people are under the thumb of the church. And if they ever did have anyone default on their loan they would just divert a bit of the "library donation money" to cover the "loss" and carry on as if nothing had happened. "Hi Peter, If you ha … [Read more...]
Thursday Funnies Friday Thanksgiving Edition
John Mappin is at it again... Now THIS is a true OT 7 success. The sign on his building is rusting and a letter fell off. How "OT" -- now it spells "CAME OT". Amazing cause over MEST. And 580 people "like" it. Just Plain Weird I don't think everyone on OT 7 is stark staring crazy, but I do think the percentage is increasing as the smarter ones depart... This IS an actual post. Kyera B Keenne September 29 · Clearwater, FL · Edited Hello! I'm ready to create on the 2nd Dynamic. I am posting my ideal scene. If you know someone who matc … [Read more...]
The Fundraising Steamroller
The evening of the "grand opening" of the "ideal" CLO EU they held a fundraiser. The crush for cash NEVER takes a break. It flattens all other factors in its path. Nothing is more important than squeezing some more cash out of the sheeple. Cannot have a day to "celebrate" -- nope, it becomes another excuse to round everyone up to hand over more. And a Sea Org "honor guard" for the whales? Oh, how the mighty have fallen. The Sea Org now forms "honor guards" for people based on their "donations". In the pantheon when of weird scientology insults to Sea Org members, this is on a par with … [Read more...]
