For about 30 years now the FSO has been pushing an arbitrary target of "10,000 onto or through OT VII" as the solution to "handling the planet." It comes from a twisted interpretation of this quote from a 1952 lecture: "...at any one time on earth there were not more than about 10,000 people of a caliber that was sufficient to do a little steering or leading..." Clive Rabey, the point man for the FSO on this matter, explained it in Source Mag like this: "It was a mathematical equation, all extrapolated out. From the real physical universe effects this would create in terms of case gain and … [Read more...]
Pathetic In Pasadena
When the only people starting course in Pasadena are names I know from the 80's or even back to the Apollo years, and the services they are on are Student Hat, "SRD" and Purif it tells you everything you need to know about the "straight up and vertical" expansion in one of the premier "Ideal Orgs" in the center of the largest population of Scientologists on earth. They are probably the six people huddled in the one courseroom they turn the lights on in. These Ideal Orgs should be renamed Cannibal Orgs, because that appears to be ALL they do. (Perhaps a big pot could be set up in reception so … [Read more...]
More Fundamentalist Threats
To continue to document the dwindling spiral, I will keep publishing the threatening and quite insane emails that demonstrate the insanity within the bubble. Here is the newest one. These people truly are insane: all beings will be blind and in pain forever, soon. This is apocalyptic cult talk without doubt. From: Your Enemy [email protected] Here's the entire issue boiled down to its basic. If LRH were here, what would he think of you? Of COB? Who would he side with? You think he would side with you. The person who ran away and went to the SP press, who's dragging Scn th … [Read more...]
We Never Deliver What We Promise
Here is a new twist. You are in the middle of a service (one of Miscavige's certified "On Source" checksheets that came with the "Golden Age of Tech") and He reverts it back to an earlier version ("just how LRH intended it"), raises the price and then expects you to pay for the "upgrade". Mid-service. Wow. Wonder if they ever thought of recrediting people for all the extra auditing they had to get in the "old" GAT Bridge before the release of the new, streamlined, extra on-Sourcy "upgraded" GAT II Bridge? You know, the "pilot" that was being delivered at Flag for 9 years while the Class V … [Read more...]
News And Stats From The Bubble
A couple of recent OTC emails from the PAC area. PAC OTC is focused on fundraising (big surprise) for the "PAC Auditorium" and "Ideal PAC Base" (whatever that is -- "Ideal" has morphed into a new term in the bubble not even trying to pretend it has anything to do with the policy letter on "The Ideal Org" any longer). But this email also includes some stats that are pretty revealing. This is the PAC OTC -- the biggest concentration of Scientologists on earth (they claim in their stats to have 126 active members). And remember, "PAC" consists of "all" the Missions including the winners of t … [Read more...]
Bubble Bath
Sent in by one of our Special Correspondents who monitors the Scientology Facebook groups. I am at a bit of a loss for words over some of this stuff. But it does give some interesting insight into life inside the bubble that is fundamentalist Scientology. 1) How pathetic. And how many people do you think are in this boat? And its not even seen to be something odd. Either that one of the most powerful beings in the universe cannot afford an emeter, or that an emeter is priced out of reach. The poor fools who have been on Solo NOTs for years, spending all their disposable income to … [Read more...]
Scientology Snakes And Ladders
Here we have some more mangled english from our friend Edy Lundeen. The consistency with which this horrific grammar spews forth from the bubble confirms that it is not merely a fluke. There is some endemic lack of understanding of the english language within the church of scientology. Perhaps the Shermanspeak is rubbing off on them? What is amazing about this is that they are actually promoting how terrible the existing Solo auditors are. I think.... It is pretty hard to decipher what she is saying at all. But the funnest line is making sure everyone is prepared for the rush of people … [Read more...]
Fasten Your Sear Belt
The squirrels are everywhere. And they are us. Ignore if you can the typos and grammar -- what is so remarkable about these pronouncements is how unabashed the bubble dwellers are when they state everything they have been doing up to now has been squirrel. "You MUST do this new course/rundown/procedure/level/status NOW because we have been doing it all wrong for 20 years." "Return your money and make good on the screw ups you paid us for?" "Are you kidding?" "You are disaffected. Only COB can tell us everything he implemented we have been doing is squirrel. Start on Steps A-E -- it is y … [Read more...]
Why Now Is The Time To Act
One of our Special Correspondents sent this in and I felt it worthy of a post: This article is being written specifically for those of you who are still "in" Scientology, still actively "on lines" or around in the orgs (although, of course, I want everyone to read it). I know there are many of you "still ins" who read this blog, probably many more than any of you actually realize. I have been exactly where you are right now. And I wanted to share some things that helped me get to a much better place across all my dynamics. There come points in everyone's life where they are fo … [Read more...]
Begging For Staff Christmas Bonuses
This is really quite sad. Apart from exclamation compulsive disorder, this is an IDEAL ORG. One of the big, prominent ones (as opposed to say Cambridge or Malmo or Nashville or LV or Dallas or Padova or Brussels etc etc). It is worth 3 exclamation points that they have 12 scheduled to start GAG II. OMG. Twelve SCHEDULED. I guess they are going to pack out those courserooms built to hold 500 students.... And there are "several people" playing the game to get "5 starts." That is iumpressive. But the really sad part is the begging to please give us money so we can get paid because "he (LRH … [Read more...]
