Things in the world of perpetual money-grubbing move along at a rapid clip, with a new story every week (it's tough when you have to keep asking the same people over and over). As a result there is hyperinflation of the hype with each new story more over-the-top than the last one. For 20 years the cry was to give us your money because Super Power is going to make planetary clearing a reality. Never mind the same thing was said about GAT I, The Basics, the Golden Age of Knowledge, Ideal Orgs, The International Dissemination Center, BPI, the purchase of KCET, ads on the Super Bowl and the … [Read more...]
“Case Gain Equivalent To Those Of A Session”
This really requires no comment. The radical church of scientology has reached its final goal. People who think that giving money to buy buildings is as good as auditing. And of course, thanks to Mr. Miscavige for making this possible and keeping us Scientologists working for him. Amazing the things the RCS puts out. Their own statements are so damning. They have completely lost touch with the reality of the outside world. It seems they are oblivious to how utterly absurd and laughable they are. … [Read more...]
Ukraine — Confusion Blowing Off In The Wake Of GAG II
I made a comment at the end of a post a few days ago about a Freedom Medal winner claiming that the situation in the Ukraine and in Venezuela was "confusion blowing off" in the wake of GAG II. Then I received a new promotional piece from WTH Fdn asking for money for WTH for Crimea. The bubble-dwellers literally never see anything happen in the world that cannot be twisted into a request for money. It is amazing. The first outness is that IF it was truly IAS Freedom Medal winners who calmed down the scene in the earlier revolution (which goes unmentioned as it was soon replaced by the … [Read more...]
Fundamentalist Scientology
This is a perfect example of the "dangerous environment" and "us v them" that are the mainstays of Miscavige and his IAS. Every fundamentalist movement must have forces of evil they are waging a holy war against -- and in turn those forces of evil must threaten the good guys' very existence and require the ultimate sacrifice from their loyal minions to defeat the evil that is seeking to consume the world. Are there abuses in the field of psychiatry? Without doubt. (Though these days it is "the psyches", meaning any profession that has "psych" in its name -- psychiatrist, psychotherapist, … [Read more...]
Chris Shelton Speaks
Chris Shelton, who has posted here as Galactic Patrol for some time, sent me this article for publication. It provides an interesting perspective on being a staff member and being in the SO. It may not be everyone's view, but it certainly aligns with much of what I experienced. And I think it is a helpful addition to multiple viewpoints that are expressed here in an effort to make all data available to those who are interested. I spent my entire adult life as a professional Scientology staff member. I started taking classes when I was 15 and joined staff at the age of 17. I joined … [Read more...]
OT Ambassadors Code
Just for fun, I thought everyone might get a kick out of reading this. It is the original write up put together by Sherry Murphy or Guillaume Lesevre or someone to hand out to the "OT VIII's" who attended the Freewinds Maiden Voyage Events (back when they were still held). The idea was to give the public something that started to make THEM responsible. Miscavige complained often that he is the "only one" and that the staff and even public didnt contribute to accomplishing "command intention" so this was written and handed out and the newly invented "OT Ambassadors" were made to swear to … [Read more...]
Shhhhh…. Don’t Breathe A Word
Something very amusing is happening in the bubble. Either they are so paranoid, they are sending out invitations to the "Grand Opening" and "ribbon cuttings" in LA and telling people "not to forward this email" "for obvious reasons," Or, They are so paranoid, they are sending out fake emails to certain people to try and find the "leak" hoping they will then be published and the "leak" will be uncovered, but meanwhile creating mass confusion within the KoolAid community. Either way, the magnificent Cause Over All Life, Matter, Energy, Space And Time OT's, led by Dear Leader, the Greatest Of … [Read more...]
Alfreddie On The Gravy Train
Alfreddie Johnson may have long since joined the Vulture Club of Michael Roberts, Jeff Pomerantz, Andrik Shaapers et al, but this is the first I have seen of it. Alfreddie is a chameleon who has now taken on the appearance of a vulture. He bills himself a "Baptist Minister" (indicative of the PR area control the church has accomplished that he STILL doesnt wan to identify himself as a Scientologist) who runs various drug and education programs (Tony Ortega had an interesting article about one of his cohorts trying to get government funding). He is pals with the Nation of Islam people and … [Read more...]
Flag OTC And IAS Take Credit For Narconon Nepal
Interesting how the stories change depending on circumstances. Of course, any Narconon that is in trouble (Georgia, Arrowhead, Nevada etc) goes to enormous lengths to assert that the church has NO involvement. But when it comes time to ask for money, it's just one big happy family. It is also a little strange that opening a Narconon last September is all that she Mrs. Feshbach (IAS cheerleader du jour) can cite as tangible results of their hard earned money? Why no report on the hurricane? Or the "massive" relief effort in Italy? Or ANYTHING other than a building opened 6 months ago that … [Read more...]
The Good, The Bad, The Really Ugly
What an odd catchphrase, substituting "Ideal" for "Ugly".... They must think this is something brilliant as they have a whole campaign based on this slogan.... But the third one here is jaw-dropping. Taking money from a 10 year old? And promoting it? Tells you how warped one's view becomes inside the bubble. That left me almost wordless. That SHOULD be titled, The Good, The Bad, The Really Ugly. Oh, how sad. … [Read more...]
