Of course, it didn't take long for the pitches for money for the earthquakes in Japan and Ecuador to appear. I have received a few of them, each pretty much repeating what is said below. Scientology (particularly the IAS) is the poster child for disaster capitalism ( defined as: the practice of generating profits based on the occurrence of a disaster). Note: it is PROFITS, not just revenue or income. If the money was SPENT on what it was collected for, it would not be profit. The IAS has accumulated billions over the years. They NEVER spend more than they collect -- that is basic … [Read more...]

How long will it take? They are STILL trying to recruit Paul Schofield for staff at Auckland org even after the post last Saturday... "Breakthrough accomplishments" We have nearly broken 6,800 ever on or through Solo NOTs and Tampa CF is done through the letter "F".... Birmingham IS going ideal... "The freight train has started..." Wonder if this person also writes copy for HAPI? Hello, Birmingham IS going Ideal. The freight train has started and will not be stopping until the cycle is done. The first Sea Org projects have arrived. This in … [Read more...]

Come To The Flag Dear me, it just cannot be this hard to get all the words onto a poster I did something which truly helped... No you didn't. Babe watch Still saying Tampa "is making" staff a viable career. It should be that by now. These are really becoming like the prude version of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit cover. They have nothing to do with Sports. And this has nothing to do with Orgs/being on staff/SO. Discounts. Discounts. Hurry. Hurry. Nothing like "Ron's Birthday" as a reason to give discounts on the money they will never … [Read more...]

Still crazy after all these years SO #1 letters as inspiration? Even in this day and age? Wow... Tampa Org is "out of PT" Can you imagine the model ideal SH size org is not in PT and needs to do the SRD? Says a lot for the state of the non-model, non-ideal, non-SH sized orgs everywhere else. Our birthday gift: Planetary Dissemination a reality! Yessirreee... Does this person REALLY think that everyone hasn't yet figured out that this whole set up is being paid for by Miscavige as a pet-project boondoggle to use up some of that cash he has been … [Read more...]

Exclusive? How exclusive can it be when the person delivering the "briefing" is not even on Solo NOTs? Intriguing? Really? And she's "got" over 10,000 people up the Bridge? Must be some of the 2 billion that Tom Cruise has got into scientology A fact? What factual information do they have that they are creating an impact on the planet? Must see... A poster with more words in the copyright notice than in the text The magic of Source And the enchantment of Dan Sherman. Should be quite an evening of sleight of hand and … [Read more...]
Eradicating Psychiatry — “Less steps than baking a cake.”
Ken Kramer is at it again. As usual, he is begging for money, even though the IAS claim THEY are the ones "eradicating psychiatry." Just like they are the ones bringing "human rights" and "literacy campaigns" (see recent post on GoFundMe page for those campaigns). Here are a couple of recent emails from Mr. Kramer. From: PsychSearch <records@PsychSearch.net> Sent: Sunday, February 21, 2016 3:35 AM To: Subject: You say you want a revolution You say you want a revolution Well, you know We all want to change the world... (Beatles - Revolution Lyrics) Dear … [Read more...]
IAS Abandons Youth For Human Rights and Literacy Campaigns
Well, the truth is they never really had them (or anything else that requires spending money on anything other than buildings). Remember Tim Bowles? Former "good guy" partner of Rick Moxon? He won an IAS Freedom Medal for his work with children in Africa. The IAS repeatedly announces it's "support" for human rights, most particularly "Youth For Human Rights". They gave an IAS Freedom Medal to Mary Shuttleworth, the head if the whole show. They have literally collected tens of millions of dollars on the basis of their PR that they are "bringing human rights to the world." They claim … [Read more...]
Hysteria of the SP’s and 60X Expansion
Tom Cruise's brother in law, nominal "head" of "Criminon International" and IAS fundraising shill has poured his heart into his latest letter beseeching people to come hear him speak on behalf of the IAS (so he can collect his FSM commissions). This letter is fascinating on many levels: He starts out in Chicken Little mode: look how bad things are, everyone is against us and it is terrible. But with it comes the scientology twist: all this PROVES we are winning. The "hysteria of the SP's" - ie the constant stream of bad news that pours in the door -- from media coverage to legal losses … [Read more...]

What's Next? One thing for sure -- it will involve taking your money. All of it. Craig Mathieson? Been in the SO for 40 years and doesn't have a post worth mentioning? And they can't figure out who their top technical terminal is? Moneywinds Someone has been reading this blog and forced them to do a token promotional piece that doesn't talk about making money. But how unreal can you get? Learn how to throw the switch to light a universe? Who is going to teach them that? Mountain View Juggernauts Now renamed the Mountain View Juggernoughts.

Somehow this just seems wrong When are they going to hold a Day of Commemoration in Memory of the Victims of The Hole? Nashville is not rocking This has been an "ideal" org now for SIX YEARS and they JUST got a CCRD auditor and C/S. So much for "clearing their area." And so much for the "lightning fast" training promised with GAG II in November 2013 when all the trainees went for their "short" training program. Monumental breakthroughs! Earth shaking I am sure. Where has TC's brother in law been all these months? Food, glorious food Seems this … [Read more...]
