The latest Auditor mag was sent to me. It is quite a tour de force of oddities and omissions. Here are a few pages of note. Proof positive that there is no longer a Briefing Course. This is the HOME of the Briefing course. And not a single mention of it, let alone a completion.... Also apparent, the ONLY people on auditor training at AOSHUK are outer org staff. The big boom of GAG II rocketing public up the training side of the Bridge is completely omitted (because it doesn't exist -- they cannot even rocket them through the Student Hat Rehash). The Advanced org … [Read more...]
Cognitive Dissonance
Do these people even realize what they are saying? Do they have ANY concept of the orders of magnitude they are dealing with when they keep saying they are "making planetary clearing a reality?" I guess they think this will convince people they need a LOT of money because the number is so big, rather than make them realize they should just give up and come up with some other plan for clearing the planet as this one they are operating on is nothing but pure fail. They recently started publishing "Clear Numbers" again as you can see in this recent page from the Auditor … [Read more...]
More Massive International Contraction
This is a report sent in by Peter Bonyai. He wrote a book I highly recommend about his years in Scientology and the Sea Org in Hungary that I covered in a blog post entitled Money, Power, Servitude. Peter keeps tabs on the goings on with scientology in Hungary and has some news on that front that indicates all is not so rosy in the straight up and vertical, 47X expansion world of scientology. OTL Central Europe (also known as OTL Hungary), the local Sea Org unit in Budapest, will be dissolved in the next few weeks. They have already vacated the building they rented (I am sure … [Read more...]
Lights Out At Jobur Org
Here is another chapter in the sad tale of the demise of Jobur Ideal Org. To begin, let me remind you that this is the second "ideal org." Dear Leader himself made the long trip to bless the "new org" and in finest shermanspeak, pronounced this the beginning of the new age in Africa and THE thing that would make S. Africa the first cleared country. And the goodness would spread from there and overtake the entire continent. Of course, no such thing happened and Jobur has struggled since. So much so that a Sea Org "Command Team" was dispatched to get things back "under control." They rolled i … [Read more...]
Thursday Funnies
Christmas Bizarre So, THIS is what the "ideal org" in the "first scientology city" is up to.... Selling jewelry, flowers and trinkets. At least there is some exchange. Freedumb Mag is recruiting... I would normally have made this its own article, but there is no much to cover that I put it in here. I was sent this email by 9 different people yesterday. Apparently LD Sledge has quite a mailing list of former church members! What is so amusing about this is not just that "Freedom" is opening a "full newsroom" (?) but they are using a public scientologist to try and recruit … [Read more...]
More GAG II Hype
Another report on the glorious wonderment of flag and its incredibly impressive statistics (unless you actually think about them rather than just read the exclamation points and assume it's "amazing"). The clubbed seals are applauding loudly. This dose of donkey droppings presented as plum pudding comes from Sabine Peschken, once the CO WISE International. She fell from grace many years ago, but I had not heard of her until she reappeared as a Flag money-grubber in Australia. Here is her gibberish, followed by some comments: THIS IS THE 1 YEAR ANNIVERSARY OF THE FLAG BUILDING … [Read more...]
ASHO Is Booming. NOT
More "good news" for those who love Bad News. The air has gone out of the hype balloon that was the Pacifica Ideal Bridge. Remember, ASHO used to be two separate orgs, now combined into one... And they are now crowing about their incredible statistics: If "virtually every preclear completing the SRD and going into the HGC goes Clear within 2-4 weeks" how can they ONLY have made 17 Clears in 2 months??? That means that have a grand total of 8 people in the HGC (giving them the benefit of the doubt and taking the 4 weeks figure). And that is with 24 auditors. A 3 to 1 auditor to pc … [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...]
Flag’s “Late Breaking (No Longer Good) News”
After months of publishing his "Good News" briefings in inverted commas, Jeff Mintz has now changed the title to "Late Breaking" news. Whatever he wants to call it -- it's a really poor show. He might as well take the same figures every week and just change the date. This is LOOOONG term flat (Emergency condition). Month after month. And if there was any international expansion happening in scientology, it would have shown up at Flag by now. After all, it's nearly twenty years since the "Golden Age Of Tech" and more than a decade since the "Ideal Orgs Strategy" and more than a year since … [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...]
