More hilarity from the Razzerloonies... From: Sent: Saturday, February 07, 2015 To: Subject: FW: THETA NEWS! Thanks so much for forwarding this! I just received this from the IASA! Cool news on the IAS funded Scientology dissemination campaign! 1 minute after the "Age of Answers" Scientology ad aired during the Superbowl half-time, the scientology.org website visits went from an average of 80 to 1,800!!! And after the ad aired on Superbowl, there was a TON of buzz and feedback on social media. Here are some of the responses: "It wouldn't be Superbowl without a Sc … [Read more...]
Thursday Funnies Are Back
Bea Upastat Oh, what fun. Could not think of anything I would rather do on a Sunday. This poor woman needs "hundreds of helpers" -- wonder when someone is going to break it to her that they don't exist? Another example of scientology administrative tech in action. There is no org anywhere, ever in history that has not had backlogged filing. Nobody has EVER contemplated that maybe there is something WRONG with the system... Thinking Big Now this is an "ideal" org experiencing massive expansion. But they are overwhelmed labeling 9000 WTH booklets? Seriously, … [Read more...]
The Next Decade Of Relentless Moneygrubbing
Seriously, who comes up with these catchphrases? This time Shake and Bake included a photo. Always nice to put a face to the most unfortunately appropriate name in scientology. Dear Frank, We have officially launched into the new year and started a new IAS decade — The Next Decade of Relentless Advance! As this is the first week of 2015, I wanted to ensure you are on board as an IAS Field Disseminator and to know if you need any assistance to make this your best and most productive year starting now. To give you some instant inspiration, I included in this email (see b … [Read more...]
Volunteer Ministers Hype
This is the text of the full page USA Today ad that appeared last Thursday. Back in the good old days, USA Today required DETAILED proof of the claims made in church ads. Today, pretty much anything goes.... A global movement more than 200,000 strong. Active in better than 120 nations. Based on the rest of the scientology demographics, more than half of the total activities occur in the United States. So, ballparking it means there are more than 100,000 VMs in the US. So, where were they when the massive tornadoes rolled through Oklahoma? They tried to … [Read more...]
IAS Is Case Gain
Amazing how complete the transformation has become. Auditing and training -- the "central religious practices" of scientology are now dismissed with the derisive "inflow" (as in "take" rather than "give"), to be replaced by something far better, and something that provides TRUE "real and stable case gain" -- handing over your money to the IAS. The Golden Age of Gold. It's all about the money, money, money.... I am heading out of town. The blog will likely be sporadic over the next week. I have some things prepared in advance to prevent a total shutdown, and I … [Read more...]
Thursday Funnies
Flag OTC They put out their news like this now. Glad to see they are still promoting getting employees of scientology businesses onto services. It's always been a big success. I want one of those OTC pens they gave out for Christmas. It would be a perfect match for my IAS sunglasses. And SuperPower koozie. ANOTHER new game... They have had the "Matching Game" and the "Infinity Game" and now "50 for LRH's Birthday." It just never seems to get any closer. Scots Humor Strange would be an understatement. But then again, they do eat haggis. Don't get … [Read more...]

The (lack of) irony deparment... This small collection of Craigslist ads is a study in irony. The people who destroy families and tear relationships apart, who lie with reckless abandon... The Global Reach of Radio How nutty is this. They can produce everything for radio without any "new studios", they have literally dozens of UNUTILIZED studios. If their figures are true -- 95% of the world's population listens to radio, that means about 75% of those people (between China, India, SE Asia and Africa) cannot even afford to buy an overpriced book, let alone a service. … [Read more...]
The IAS Superheroes
It is getting to be an incredible joke what the IAS is willing to claim responsibility for. They are taking on comic book superhero status in the scientology bubble, though they are bloated as a result of not DOING anything meaningful. Though they really do virtually NOTHING other than buy buildings as directed by Miscavige, and invest a bit of money to shoot videos they can use for fundraising, they work overtime to create the impression that they are "responsible" for everything. If there is something done by CCHR -- that is the IAS. Same with Way To Happiness. Drug Education. Youth … [Read more...]
Pleeeeeease Come Back…
With a special offer like this -- a FREE 6 month membership (that anyone gets just for turning over their name and email address) -- how could you resist? But you have to get in NOW because this "offer" only lasts until 31 December. At that point they will send out a "new" offer of a free 6 month membership. Even something as stupid as this has to be a lie. But of course, this IS "the most successful and effective group in the world." Also the most modest. And honest. One thing that IS interesting is that it proves they have records of EVERYONE, and pretty accurate ones. This … [Read more...]
No Shame
The US Government is despised and derided by scientology, with numerous L. Ron Hubbard writings and lectures mentioning the US Government, many government agencies and even Presidents in less than flattering terms. There are very few positive statements about any person or any part of the US government anywhere in the "scriptures" of scientology. The most consistent vehemence is directed towards the FBI and the IRS. But then it comes time to pitch how they will help raise money for the IAS, suddenly, Old Glory is fluttering in the breeze with the IAS logo imprinted on top of it. Now they … [Read more...]
