They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
A scientology FSM hands out business cards to attract new marks. Interesting she chooses a quote that calls scientology an “applied philosophy” and not a religion, yet she uses the quote (without attribution) that Hubbard said Volunteer MINISTERS should use “I will talk to you or anyone for you about anything.”
I suspect this business card is part of a campaign by scientology having seen the repeated postings on social media of people leaving Aftermath Foundation business cards in front of orgs, on notice boards, in libraries and stores etc etc.
If you want to join in the fun, it’s easy. Just got to The Aftermath Foundation website:
You can download printable templates or ask for cards to be sent to you for distribution free of charge:

Love the Aftermath Foundation card stuck to the Scientology logo!
Classic!
Jere Lull says
Getting the Aftermath Foundation word out is GOOD. every scientologist freed from the mindfcuk is another who can help Clear the Planet — of scientology
and help restore some sanity to the real world.
Dotey OT says
I was mailing those out like a man possessed for several years. And I used to get mail from a lot of places, unfortunately I got around. I’m sure they couldn’t stop all the cards that got in through the mail. There was always the chance that some shit hits the fan somewhere else, and then someone else gets to open mail.

I’ve been out of the sea org since 82, and I’m trying to get an uncle out now. I carried Scientology nomenclature mentally for many years. I’d sing and play guitar at the old Celebrity center to promote the Church of Scientology in the ’70s. Leah and you Mike are making a difference for the good. I’m hoping to see many more good people break free from their entrapment and restore back to their independent life. David Miscavige could be salvaged himself after he pays his lawyers tons of money for his crimes. I’m not giving up on this movement that shows the lies Hubbard created for his self-gratification of money and power. I still watch the aftermath on Netflix and I follow your podcasts Scientology: Fair Game. HANG THERE, THE BOTH OF YOU. I am a minister for the street people here in Portland Or.
Samuel Williams* says
I left the (sea org) in 1982, but I carried it around the nomenclature mentally for many years. Leah and Mike, I’m thrilled to see the lies coming out to the light and hear of many people getting out through this door of freedom that is given. I hope to see it crumble and David Miscavige spends all his money for the crimes He’s done. I met a lot of good people, while I was in the sea org l believe they are waking up to see the light of freedom. I was the singer at the old Celebrity Center promoting Scientology, I now I sing in someone I believe in. You all keep on keeping on, I truly love what you’re doing. Sam

OK
Jere Lull says
I was released from servitude, a/k/a kicked out, in ’80 After 41 years, I’m STILL trying to rid myself of the hypnotic teach[niques] scientology sells as freeing one from the deep hypnosis of life on Teegeeack.
Richard says
Jere Lull – After 41 years I would hope you might consider yourself “recovered”. Even in Alcoholics Anonymous after substantial time of not drinking and no desire to return to drinking you are allowed to call yourself recovered.
Past participation in scn (or any other cult) is not a “lifetime sentence” in my opinion.
Richard says
Jere – continued – I’m a recovered alcoholic and once every year or two I have what I call my “drunk dream”. It usually involves me sitting at a bar or some similar situation where I’m telling myself that I can have “just one beer” and still consider myself “recovered”. I wake up, laugh and shrug it off. Lol
I’ve also had a couple of scn dreams but that’s a different story – haha
Todd Cray says
Amusing to find this sycophantic acknowledgment: “Grateful acknowledgement is made to L Ron Hubbard Library for permission to reproduce a selection from the copyrighted works of L Ron Hubbard.”
Comically, the acknowledgment is longer than the quote itself (to say nothing of all the fine print that comes next). Equally strange, the “works” quoted is a simple sales slogan. Finally, the bearer of the card is not a bearer of ancient Talmudic wisdom that they are freely sharing with some fortunate elect. They are a garden-variety sales person operating to directly benefit said Hubbard organizations financially.
I can’t say I’ve ever seen a salesperson having to acknowledge a slogan or a trademark when they’re trying to get their marks to sign on the dotted line. It seems a bit like a Japanese car salesperson having to bow East every time they invoke the word “Toyota” and acknowledge the wisdom of the corporate overlords by which they have decreed that this is a better ride than a Ford. Tacky!
ValR says
So she will tell me how Lisa McPherson died and where Shelly is😂😂😂
Overrun in California says
Yes, I’d like to talk to you about Zenu, disconnection, and how you can put up with an asshole like Miscavige for so long.
Eh=Eh says
She’s willing to discuss anything on any subject? B.S. Let’s talk about enforced disconnection from family members then.
Briget says
Agreed. And let’s talk about child abuse (both physical and emotional) and stripping people of all their financial security.
Oh, and about the practice of reducing your Inner Core of Faithful (Sea Org) to walking dead through the RPF and systematic starvation and sleep deprivation. Refer to Marc Headley’s excellent autobiography for details.
Phil Jones says
I bet they wouldn’t talk to me about the abuses and workability of Scientology.
Mark Kamran says
It’s not an act but even an idea gives them nightmares.
Age of Paranoia : confusion harbor chaos.
Remember the date 2025 , Age of Extinction. Every Cult go through this stage ,it’s based on product life cycle.
They may avoid it ,by entering into new venture ( product life cycle) .
Midwest, poultry and dairy farming is their last choice.
It’s not me ,it’s written on the wall.

Do you have non-US phone numbers? Asking for a friend …
