So they finally admit that the numerous previous fundraising efforts that brought about "mass distribution" of WTH in LA accomplished nothing. They are now going to begin bringing about the revival. Here is what their press release says: Los Angeles is on the verge of a moral revival, and Artists for a Better World International (AFABW) is leading the way! The dynamic LA-based non-profit is creating a buzz by distributing The Way to Happiness, a common sense guide to better living. According to AFABW’s President, Barbara C., the response to the custom-printed covers of The Way to H … [Read more...]

Information gotten nowhere else... Flag miracles in Mary Jo's backyard Walking on water across the swimming pool? Turning one hot dog bun into a feast for all attendees? They finally got one... Well on the way to Clearing their zone now. One Clear a year will get them there in… never. They got one too! A cause for great celebration. How many of these staff are SO members? They're not close to St Hill size. Highest what? At least they're not all old people. But sad they are young people wasting their lives... Kiddie C … [Read more...]
Not a Single Act of Violence
Scientology's hyperbolic claims about itself have hit a new high (low?) Gathering at the Advanced Org (why there are not Joburg org?) -- a "diverse and eclectic team" mobilized on election day to hand out Way to Happiness booklets. As a result of the "more than 400" who joined in passing out the booklets (the photo shows about 50 and you can bet it's a staged shot to include as many people as they could) the "predicted riots" were "everted." Not since the claims that OT VIII's brought down the Berlin Wall have we heard such unadulterated poppycock. The delusion is breathtaking. Surely … [Read more...]
Always Be Inflitrating Part 2
Another example of scientology front groups at work, infiltrating organizations and then putting out press statements that announce their involvement in big, bold letters, and associate themselves with legitimate groups and organizations. This is the headline from their latest press release, date 6 May 2023. See Part 1 here. The Los Angeles Police Department and the Church of Scientology win the National Faith and Blue Weekend contest, illustrating how much can be accomplished when law enforcement and the community work together Of course, curious about this award, I … [Read more...]
The Way to Happiness is Book Commissions
The money grubbing never ends. They've got tens of thousands of WTH booklets sitting in a garage. But they don't have money to mail them out. They quote the words of Hubbard -- but clearly scientology does not believe these words. If they DID believe them, they would spend a tiny percentage of their billions of dollars on mailing/distributing copies of the booklet to everyone in LA. Everyone in California. Everyone in the US... don’t they want a calm, happy world? All they have to is get the WTH booklets out everywhere… But instead, they use this "moral code" as a FUNDRAISING too … [Read more...]
Non-Religious Moral Code??
You can bet that if someone reaches out to the "Chair of the City Council's Administration Environment and Public Safety Committee" he or did not think they were presenting an award to "Scientology" but to the Way to Happiness Foundation "non-religious" front group. No sooner had they gotten this award than "the church of scientology" put out a press release that is all about how the city of Columbus supports scientology, while also pitching scientology TV and tossing in some ass-kissing for Mr. Mickiewicz. Calling Stefani Hutchison. … [Read more...]
Documented Way to Happiness Campaign Fail
I think scientologists are losing braincells with each WTH booklet they distribute. Lydia Hopwood is announcing "proof" of the effectiveness of handing out WTH booklets and attaches statistics from the LA PD as "evidence".... Unfortunately, what she attaches proves the exact opposite (but is a great illustration of how scientology creates the illusion they are "helping the world" as I describe below). If it were the WTH booklets that caused the reduction in violent crime in the Foothill area, then what is being done in Pacific/Southwest/West LA as that is apparently far more … [Read more...]

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...]

Be kind, be decent... Yeah, the guiding principles of scientology. Not AOSH Africa taking over the world One country that is actually their zone, everywhere else they are poaching other AO's territory! And who the hell is this guy -- he is from Albania? Why is he promoting AOSH Africa and not AOSHEU? Oh boy... Columbus is almost the BEST org in all of EUS? And the real scoop on this Sea Org manned org is that it is a complete morgue -- listen to the podcast Chris Shelton did recently with the SO member who The Aftermath Foundation helped … [Read more...]
LA WTH
This "campaign" to stuff mailboxes in LA with copies of The Way to Happiness continues full speed ahead. The level of delusion on display here is mind-boggling. These people have been convinced to believe, in violation of everything observable to them, that putting a booklet in someone's mailbox is going to have miraculous effects: "just imagine the sanity spreading to beings who need theta and direction in their lives!" I get tons of "mail" like this -- pamphlets, leaflets, booklets, fliers, magazines etc etc in my mailbox every day. It all goes straight into the garbage without a … [Read more...]
