The Thursday Funnies are back with a vengeance! We've got some great stuff this week... Things are really gearing up. You'd better be ready for the greatest expansion ever that is just over the horizon.... For 70+ years now, the mantra has been that the promises made are now finally going to come true. And this time it’s for real. Your faith (and money) will finally pay off. You have to wonder how long they can keep the confidence game going. It’s worked for this long — and there is no sign they are slowing down with their pitch. We’re expanding like never before! … [Read more...]

OT Phenomena How "OT" is it to visit a friend in a foreign city and forget to bring his address and phone number?? Curing amnesia on the "Whole Track"? Hahaha The OT levels don't cure amnesia after breakfast. No big surprise If you are flying in from all corners of the world in order to take advantage of the low prices they offer at AO Africa (compared to the other AO's, the prices are not "low"), you probably don't want to be paying airfares for repeat trips. It's a long way to Africa and a lot of money... It's the final race to the finish … [Read more...]

Join us lighting the Menorah Why? It's a holiday party And the part they are not saying: they will be pressuring you to join staff and if you won't do that, hand over cash. It's the scientology way -- "Celebrate Christmas with us, it's a time of giving. You give to us." This is a lot of stuff... How come ONLY the orgs that are "next to go ideal" seem to put on these endless events? And why does graduation always feature something other than graduates (spoiler: they don't have any)... The "Christmas Open House" is going to feature "LRH stories" … [Read more...]

How very appropriate Enter the world of Alice in Wonderland. Yes, it's OPEN! Not funny, sad I have not had the opportunity to read the decision. The activities of scientology are NOT beneficial to the public at large. They are only photo ops. AOSH Africa Busting open the bottom of the Bridge I wonder if Joburg or Joburg North or Pretoria (all 3 of them "ideal" orgs) have ANY customers? They don't have certs any more? Just cheesy signs they hold up... In true Chicago style... Half a dozen, tired old people sitting … [Read more...]

A lot of promo this week has been devoted to the massively, spectacular, epic wider bridge OMG! But there are some other bits and pieces worthy of comment... Postcard Mania? This is the venue, not one of the numerous completely empty Potemkin village buildings on N. Ft Harrison? What is she holding up? Why are they blanking out a routing form? Deep questions and an epiphany Scientologists love good conspiracy theories. Global Elites in secret perverted activity! Things TOO disturbing to share. But scientology has the answer. The ONLY … [Read more...]
Thursday Funnies
Back after our Alaska vacation -- which was wonderful. It's a breathtaking experience, unfortunately no photos do justice to its sheer scope and grandeur. There are a few more funnies than usual as it's 2 weeks worth, so some are a little dated: Unimpressive Numbers They really think that 10 OT levels completed in a week is going to accomplish anything? I see only two OTV's and most are OT IV (which along with OT 1 are the fastest levels). One NOT's completion per week is not going to get the 10,000 onto or through Solo NOTs for a LOOOONG … [Read more...]

The Chan Man He is going to singlehandedly make Canada ideal, like he has the US (except for those who are still trying...) If this guy is SO powerful, how come all orgs aren't done yet? The Magic of Chicago? Bringing out the best in your child... Plus Freewinds "goodwill" tour and the Top Gun Chicago Air and Water show. Every one of these is a disguised recruitment event. Trying to get anyone to show up they can pressure into joining staff. Why not start with Marcy Sargeant? Wick Allcock is still in Melbourne? He HAS been "put out to … [Read more...]

Bunny Rabbits and Freddie Mercury Impersonators What symbolizes ideal orgs better than this? And a trip to the Blue Mountains... Brisbane, Adelaide and Canberra will be ideal in no time. Forget about the rest of Asia and the Pacific. First? Is that a sad state of affairs if this is true? Did you see the latest census numbers from Australia where 2000 people in the whole country identify as scientologists? And three of their six orgs are still not ideal... Yeah, sure there are dozens every week Not Canada Day Graduation... Chris … [Read more...]

Did they actually have 2 completions in one week? They never show shots of the actual graduation... More "Advanced Org" services What are these people doing? They're so desperate they are trying to attract raw public? Monumental Achievements They got some people to play at Graduation! The bar is pretty low these days... It's International(r) you know... Here's one of their events Same few people -- doesn't really look too international What I Fear Most Taking financial advice from an old guy trying to look cool and … [Read more...]
