Putting children through the Purification Rundown is child abuse.
m morris says
If you’re going to put a child in a sauna that’s considered child abuse because of the temperatures anybody knows CPS is phone number? Is it against the law in there not to report suspected abuse just asking.
Mike you’re writing an awful lot for trying to take some days off take some days off relax enjoy
Balletlady says
1800 4ACHILD to report ANY form of child abuse…..keeping in mind that the report MUST be real/justified….done in GOOD FAITH, witnessed or having seen signs of possible abuse or neglect…& Emotional abuse counts too, there ARE MANDATED reporters such as Drs, Nurses etc..
To do a “get even” with my spouse or neighbor or relative report will bring you possible legal charges.

The funniest one to me was Katie, the lady who wanted to start a Home Schooling Group. She is the one promoting to get people to her reg cycle, so the costs of the snacks should be her burden alone. Yet in true Scn fashion, she asks for $10 to cover snack costs. OMG. Talk about cheap.

Aquamarine says
Well, Craig, off the bat I’d have to say its kind of sad that you’d have to ask others for “ideas” as re the “well paying job” you seek.
With all of your enhanced consciousness one would assume you’d have some ideas of your own.
And as for leads, how about telling us what you actually know how to do?
What is your profession? Experience? Your skill sets – what are they? Tell us your qualifications for being hired (at something as yet to be determined) and paid a good salary.
You want a good job and need to be furnished with ideas about what it could be. Oh, and then you’ll need leads…gotta say, you sound like one sharp dude, Craig!
Should we pump your lungs so you can breathe, too?
Valerie says
Sheesh, Aqua, a well salary, not a good salary. 😉
rivercs says
Since he wants a well salary, then Craig wants to be paid in water, gas, or oil.
ctempster says
Good one, Aqua. “Should we pump your lungs so you can breathe too?” My thoughts exactly. When I was in. Scns were always looking for the next big money maker. I had a good job making great money and so many asked me to get them a job where I worked. They never understood it wasn’t the company I worked at, but was my own personal skill at what I did there on straight commission. They just figured, “if that idiot can do it, I surely can!” Well there was never anyone who could come in and have stats better than me, the idiot, did at the time. But this is why so many Scns just flock to all the MLM schemes. It is the call of the get rich quick with no skills or education scam. Good luck with that. Oh, and by the way, IF someone did have a high paying job, they would not give that as a lead to the guy looking because they would want it for themselves to pay for their own Bridge.
Balletlady says
LRH supposedly gave up his “meat body” because it was no longer useful & was a detriment to him. If that is so, & his body is buried or cremated…..& there IS a required LEGIT death certificate & burial site…..Well then, according to “cherch doctrine” when he is “assigned” a new meat body….HOW will he be recognized since he will have new birth parents & won’t look the same?
How will DM recognize him & is DM going to “willingly” give up his place as COB…leader of the pack…..the big wig, head of scamology so LRH can once again take over without due process? Will DM fight the newly reappeared meat body of LRH for control over all that money & gold, land, and everything else?
Is LRH supposedly, like Jesus, going to make a reappearance & save (clear) the world in one fell swope as in there you have it… BINGO…I say the world is all cleared…..except everyone who’s been made clear now owes me HUGE $$$.
I am sure that LRH when he returns to one of those lovely houses he will be more than pleased to have his Thom McCann’s & cigarettes ready & waiting……will DM scape & bow to the new meat body LRH? Useless houses kept up for a long dead man.
The older still ins & those besotted with the belief LRH will someday make his Grand Entrance return one day will be sorely disappointed…..they themselves will be dead & buried & long forgotten before THAT happens….because they refuse to take off the rose colored glasses & give up the Kool Aid drinking.
I Yawnalot says
Bizarre… Scioland really is leading the way up to & beyond “la la land”. Sad really that Christmas & anything else good to do with life can be so screwed up with Scientology.
Speaking of sad, no Chan the Noodle Man again – oh darn! I beginning to think he defected… or maybe he forgot his address after an ‘out of body’ experience?
Valerie says
I think he’s “holed” up somewhere after that footbullet of a letter he sent about homophobia.

Teresa says
I am confused and perhaps one of you can answer my question. As a “never-in”, raised Catholic why are Scientologists celebrating Christmas? I was under the belief, and please correct me if I am mistaken, that Scientologists under LRH, believe Jesus was an “implant” and Christ was fiction. I am not clear on why they would acknowledge this holiday as it is the celebration of Jesus Christ, Son of God and the central figure in Christian faith. Are all the parties, gatherings to sing Christmas Carols, etc only a means to receive more “donations”? Thanks. May each of you have a Wonderful and Joyous Christmas holiday. Blessings to all for a great new year.
Balletlady says
Gee Theresa, you had to GO there? Yup Jesus is an implant….but wait a second…SANTA is NOT an implant…that makes absolutely no sense does it. Celebrate XMAS(S)….which is as you noted, the celebration of the Birth of Jesus Christ for believers of the Christian faith.
Somehow they seem to be missing that point CHRIST(MAS)…..as in the word CHRIST is the beginning of the word Christmas & the reason to acknowledge & celebrate his birth..
Yet Jesus is an “implant”…..a myth….but Santa Claus is, ummm…NOT a myth, NOT an implant?
Come and give US money so WE can buy gifts to give to low income & foster children……so WE (COS) can be acknowledge for “our generosity”…..another group of “Yellow Shirts” out there giving away DONATED gifts NOT paid for by the COB etc.
The whales will be more than happy to donate tons of money to keep COS afloat….they fully expect no doubt to have “many lives” but they don’t seem to realize that THEY in their “new life”…might NOT BE RICH.
Valerie says
As with everything else scientological, it’s all about appearances. They aren’t celebrating, they are putting on the public appearance of celebrating because that’s what is supposed to happen.
Do not be deluded into thinking that there will be any grand feast on Christmas day or that Sea Org workers will be allowed the day of. Neither of those things will happen.
They will, however, have the “privilege” of “donating” their measly checks to David Miscavige so he can get yet another extravagant gift. They, however, will not expect, and most probably will not, receive gifts.
I remember being THRILLED because I got a package from my mother which inculded WARM SOCKS, and some food. Yep, that’s how scientologists celebrate Christmas.
unelectedfloofgoofer says
According to Hubbard, Jesus was just a regular guy who was a shade above Clear, but ranked below your average IAS member OT in terms of superpowers.
https://www.infogalactic.com/info/Jesus_in_Scientology
Martin Luther says
If one cannot accept Christ as a historical figure and Son of God, one can accept him as an archetype or platonic ideal of redemption through divine suffering. The passion play is a transcendent work of literature, and of course is far more than that to the believers.
None of this has any place in Scientology. One achieves redemption through auditing, or better yet giving lots of money without even expecting auditing. Sins are forgiven through monetary payment. Suffering is pointless and only leads to degradation, never spiritual progress.
Maybe you are confused by Scientology calling itself a religion while existing solely to extract money through mind control and manipulation. A religion would act like one.
Teresa says
Thank you for your comments and insight.

“A Christmas Party for 200 Foster Kids”.
God help me, Mike, but the second I saw that all I could think of was Tuesday’s show where Shelly’s friend from Apollo said LRH had looked in to adopting orphans that he could raise.
Robert Almblad says
Foster children? What a horrible idea to introduce them to Scientology. They have already been delt a bad hand in life. If their Foster parents are dumbd enough to bring them to a scientoloy event, they are really screwed. This would be a good place for parents who lost their children to protest with street signs and David miscavige masks, not Guy Fox or masks.
MKM says
For a ‘church’ that claims all religions are engrams (fake) they do an awful lot of Christmas stuff! The ‘Xmass’? It reminds me of the Christmas cards my aunt sends me every year. She is what you would call an ‘orthodox’ Catholic (church every day, recites the rosary daily, believes absolutely anything a priest tells her). She signs her cards, “Merry Christ-mass”.
Peggy L says
Sorta makes a person want to..well..throw up doesn’t it MKM. They just outdo themselves in the hypocrisy category time after time.
ctempster says
The church does all the Xmas stuff ONLY as a PR and marketing things to “Safepoint” the area and “get into ARC with the locals.”
Joshua Lilly says
I was going to comment on the “I need a job after wasting immense amounts of money on nonsense” item, but Ms. B. Haven already said it better than I could have!
But the “Kids Purif Pack” jumped out at me also. Surely this should be illegal?! That thing is dangerous and harmful for healthy adults – who are entitled and supposedly equipped to make their own decisions about their bodies – but kids being forced into this by their parents… how the hell is that not child abuse? I’m HOPING that the childrens’ Purif is safer than the one I’ve heard about. Is there a watered-down version for kids?
On the surface, this sounds VERY dangerous and – based on my admittedly-limited understanding of the Purif – ought to be completely illegal.
Ann Davis says
I know Joshua, this was so shocking to me when I heard about it. A few months ago Grant Cardone and his wife Elena posted a picture of his daughter high fiving him when she completed the purif. She was approximately 13 years old, maybe younger. People could not believe this was happening. This was when Elena was asking for signatures for her petition against the psychs. All of it is just sick and deplorable to me.

HOLIDAY PARTY: Everyone is welcome. Well, not really everyone. If you are reading this here, you are definitely NOT welcome. I loved that one. I have never been in, but too bad that there is not a honorary SP card to show the cult.
Red on White says
$cientology works like this….
You go into debt in most cases to give $cientology enormous chunks of money that you put on account UP FRONT because $cientology convinces you that you have a reactive mind that you need to get rid of and IT won’t want you to get better.
AFTER $cientology has your money – they covertly and manipulatively have you sign the 65 perfected lawyered up Contracts where $cientology WINS and you, the thetan, LOSE. The staff will lie about why you are signing it. You are in a CHURCH so you TRUST. Big Mistake!
LIE #1 – you don’t get rid of your reactive mind – you have to chase a carrot on a stick for decades, spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to at some point realize and say
“I am mocking up my reactive mind but can stop it and control it” – the secretive $cientology Clear Cognition.
What you actually get rid of by auditing and studying L Ron Hubbard’s writines is
the abiilty to use logic and reason
on the subject of $cientology, L Ron Hubbard, Scientologists, David Miscavige and everything associated with Spirituality.
Scientology suggests you stop watching and reading the news – it is negative.
While that is not bad advice – it goes to the extreme as everything in $cientology goes to extreme
You stop watching the news and reading the news and all you read is propaganda and glossy promo about WHAT you will receive when you do $cientology services and how the FAKE Front Groups are helping humanity. A lot of LIES!
When you get services – you have to do the routing form.
1. You sign legal contracts giving up your constitutional rights to $cientology providing the service that was promised and getting your money back.
2. You debit your account.
3. You have to see the ETHICS Officer or MAA where you will confess your sins and PAY PAY PAY … you are put in a vulnerable state where you get exploited.
4. You are anxious to get your service but $cientology will fuck with you so you are in a MUST HAVE / CAN’T HAVE
5. You finally get the service and find some relief but you have to write up a success
6. You attribute any realizations to $cientology Working
7. Most of the relief comes from being able to leave Flag, ASHO or AOLA after getting the shit regged out of you and not being able to leave
8, If you don’t write up a waxing success story – you pay to redo the service
VERY CLEVER – what a scam
Valerie says
Well paying job? Sure put that on the first line of your resume dude, lots of employers will hire people searching for well paying jobs. NOT.
The most depressing and cringeworthy thing about a scientologist is the fact that the only “job skills” they offer are their training or auditing levels. Sorry, doesn’t translate to real world experience. I hope he has other skills or a good bankruptcy attorney to fall back on when he realizes he threw all his money at a pipe dream.
Balletlady says
Xmass Party……make a donation so each child will get his or HERS present ???
So much for the LRH “home schooling”….. obviously the teachers/instructors need an education themselves.
Sauna for kids….just what the HELL is an “icy pole” that these children will receive…it sounds almost obscene.
Noticed many so called Holiday Celebrations are “Pot Luck”….you’re invited but MUST BRING something…COS isn’t going to feed you.
Sooo…..pardon me kind sir/madam…..seriously…HOLIDAY CELEBRATION…..”XMASS”….????
I am having a bit of a hard time here MIKE…..maybe since you were once in the upper higher level….please explain to me just HOW they…COS…..”mentions” XMASS????
Since COS does not recognize a DEITY….&”XMASS” is all about the birth of Jesus Christ……doesn’t “Xmass”….indicate as it normally would…well….the CHRIST is IN (Christ)mas.
Seriously….they are touting a picture of Santa Claus & Holidays…..Concerts & Music featuring many songs that are “Holiday favorites”……& songs feature the words Jesus……Angels……the BIRTH of Christ……
Anything for money, anything to get you sucked in & to stay in…..even if it means a slight lean towards a DIETY who in the minds of COS does NOT exist…..but around this time of year…..for $$$ hey what the heck?
After viewing all of these come on posters….all I can say right now is…hold on a minute…….my head is spinning…..I have to go lay down.
Teresa says
My thoughts exactly. Made my head spin for a minute, too.
Aquamarine says
Imagine all the help foster children could get if Scientology really wanted to do things for them. With their billions.. Imagine all the – you know, I can’t even write this.
Balletlady says
Aqua….I can just picture it….
Staff to Foster Child: “Oh honey, we are so glad to be able to help you. All you have to do is sign this BILLION YEAR CONTRACT….
Foster Child: “But I am only a kid, a Billion Years…huh?”
Staff To Foster Child: “I completely understand, but WE will be HERE for YOU….You know I grew up without my PARENTS TOO….. I had good friends in the Sea Org that took care of me……..and and and….”
Foster Child: “Did they love you”?
Staff To Foster Child: “.What? What?…Get REAL kid, LOVE Is just a FOUR LETTER WORD, now SIGN HERE so I can give you a Present.”
Aquamarine says
You’ve got it, Balletlady. You’ve got the concept totally down, sad to say.
Alcoboy says
Wow.
The Jedi Order really does exist on this planet.
It’s simply called the Sea Org.
SILVIA says
All around money:
Bribe the kids in wanting a purify suit and play cards in order to get them to the Purif.
Or, beg for collections so presents can be bought for foster children by the church and then pretend it is an act ‘kindness’.
Or the Italians selling items to then use the funds for ‘charity’.
And the shocking one, the L-11 completion, also begging for a well paid job. (Ls suppose to boost executive powers).
All contrary facts. Miscabage claims his cult helps communities and millions of people. Why then beg for (or steal) money and pretend you are kind? Go to hell miscabage.
Valboski says
As usual, the VGIs don’t bother to mention the name of the Charity for which this money is being raised………
FredEX2 says
It’s possible that Craig, the Scientologist who needs a job,…might want to contact Mr. Ben Nagengast, and apply to work at ‘Scream-a-Geddon or another of his amusement, theme or Zip Line parks. Afterall, many of his Scientology friends work there and these ‘fun’ places are owned by a Scientologist. Or he may want to look thru the W.I.S.E. directory. Oh Heck! With all his Scientology credentials… why doesn’t HE know this? As far as a ‘well paying’ job?…Get off FB and go out in the real world and send your resume out like everyone else. A job isn’t going to just fall in your lap…you have to put some effort into it.
And of course every Idle Org is always in need of Staff…if you need a job…but far as ‘well paying’….keep postulating …erm… dreaming, Mr Heck…
FredEX2 walks away grumbling and wondering why it takes a mere SP Wog to give a Super Power charged Scientologist some job search advice…
Valerie says
We are adding a new assistant to our crew to start out the new year. Our piles of resumes are sorted into three categories:
1. Too professional (one person sent in an 8×10 glossy photograph and the resume was professionally printed on high gloss stock). Yeah, we aren’t hiring for president of the company, just an assistant, so, yeah, overkill.
2. Those which are neatly typed or even neatly handwritten with few or preferably no mistakes.
3. Those which look like they were written in crayon or some foreign substance with multiple misspellings and grammatical errors and emoticons leaping off the page at you. Yes we do get a few of those every time we ask for resumes.
Stack 1 we generally throw in the garbage after we laugh at it, but at least we read it to see if they are remotely qualified for the position advertised.
Stack 2 we read and glean candidates from.
Stack 3 goes directly in the garbage can without further review. Mr. Heck wrote his resume in crayon IMHO.
At least it’s short. It reads:
Resume
Objective: I need a new well paying job.
Qualifications: I did a bunch of scientology and spent all my money. I don’t have a clue what I want to or can do besides running up credit card debt and pretending I can pay it off.
Certificates: Commendation for knowing how to do facebook backgrounds and emoticons 😉
Actually, we maybe could create a 4th stack called WTF for his alone. Nah, too much work. Garbage can.
Aquamarine says
🙂 Valerie
Balletlady says
NO NO NO Valerie….NEVER say “garbage or trash can”….
“Yes, of course we received your employment application, read it with complete delight & we are pleased to announce we’ve placed it in our CIRCULAR FILE for consideration…”
TW says
One of the things that cults have in common is they have to take some truth and add it to their lie. They have a modified cross. They have their own ‘savior’, who is coming back to help humanity. They talk about saving (clearing) the planet. If you don’t have any truth, which everyone instinctively knows, even if it’s buried deep within them, you won’t be able to spread your lie. Just like good comedy. It must have some truth, or it isn’t funny.
I think Clearwter is the abbreviation of Clearwater.
I notice that all of the people who are having a seminar teaching business, have very vague successes. “He has owned and run several businesses. He owned a successful company, specializing in commercial and high end contracts”. Very vague. He has had several companies for 40 years, but he owned a (singular, one) successful company.
Glenn says
Xmas party for low income families. Are sea org couples included?
Aquamarine says
It wouldn’t surprise me at all if the majority of Scientology families were low income. Its not what you make, its what you get to keep.
Ms. B. Haven says
Craig Heck just finished his Cause Resurgence, Super Douper Power, L-11 and ‘clear’, blah, blah, blah. Now he NEEDS a job. You can bet your ass he needs a job, for one of two reasons or both. One, he went in way over his head in debt to finance the above actions. Two, now that he is ‘clear’ he has landed himself in the ‘no-interference zone’ so he needs to quickly come up with some cash to get his ass thru ‘OT III’ asap (along with some extra cash for those ‘OT’ eligibility steps (sec checks) and a healthy donation to the IAS).
A common pitch by the reg when buying this useless shit called auditing is that a person’s abilities will increase to such a degree that they will easily earn 10x the money they spent on said auditing in no time at all. This obviously didn’t happen for Craig. Craig is not unique. I have never seen this work for anyone. I’ve seen a lot of creative financing and smoke and mirrors but no miraculous increase in ability.
Wake up and smell the coffee Craig. And get your ass busy with a little more creative approach than you are currently using. Reach back on the ‘whole track’ and recall some of your previous successful actions. That’s the ticket.
Glenn says
Spot on Ms. B. Knew a member who gave every dime from savings then charged many credit cards to pay for upper levels. A few years later they lost everything (home, job, credit, etc) and wound up living on the street. Sadly they never woke up and got out of the cult.
Aquamarine says
Some people just don’t want to work.
Unless they’re independently wealthy, American society is pejorative of this.
But! Then the Church of Scientology to the rescue for restoring self esteem to “downstats”.
Because no matter how lazy you are, how unemployable you are, how downright irresponsible and immature you are, if you give money to the cult, you are ‘UPSTAT”.
You’re a BIG BEING.
Head and shoulders above the vast majority of spiritual insects who people this earth.
No matter what kind of a loser you are, donating money regularly to the cult is a guarantee of INTSTANT UPSTATness.
You’ll be given pins, plaques, tee shirts; your name will have glorious Latin-sounding titles attached to it, you’ll be applauded, complimented, love-bombed.
Give them money,keep it flowing to them and in the Church of Scientology, you will be SOMEBODY. An important person. Valuable. Indispensable. POWERFUL. You have qualities that you didn’t dream existed in yourself but THEY see them even if you don’t…yet. You may not see your immense worth, your vast potential, but THEY do. Believe them!
Neglect your education, don’t work, screw your creditors, sponge off your family,scrape by somehow, declare bankruptcy but keep that money coming in and my goodness there’s no telling to what great heights you’ll rise in the Church of Scientology!
jim says
Ms. B. Haven says,
Agreed. i think after Craig got his rudiments in and was brought into present time with his cult experience he would qualify for a student loan to a trade school to become a sewer repair man. From that he could work his way up. After all of that mental s**t he just went through, physical universe s**t should be a piece of caek. Just saying…….
Aquamarine says
The Scientologists I knew when I was in had no lack of potential to have good jobs and earn good salaries. What they lacked was training in the real world to enable them to have these
good jobs with career potential.
There’s a terrible cliche about rural people in America where they express disdain and contempt for “book larnin”. “Don’t need me no book larnin, what for?”
Well, expressed differently, I heard that same concept from Scientologists about higher education and vocational training. “A complete waste of time..and money…”
Consequently, a number of them drifted from job to job,never staying with anything very long.
Or, if their families had businesses, they’d drift in and out of those businesses, working when they needed money for their Bridge or if the wolf was really at the door.
Some of them I knew are in their 50s today still dependent to some degree upon their elderly parents for the basics of life.
Now, in the REAL world, this lifestyle is characterized as “shiftless”.
But not in Scientology-World!
Oh, no! Quite the contrary!
The Scientologists I knew were PROUD to be uneducated, untrained for any viable vocation and/or, for the most part, unemployable.
Going from job to job, never sticking with anything so as to get ahead, going from one get quick scheme to another, drifting in and out of the family business, maxing out their credit cards and/or sponging off of their families were all just ways that they were “making it go right”.
or, alternately, “Spirit of Play”.
“Oh,I ALWAYS make it go right!”, said very proudly. (“Making it go right” in Scientology is what LRH said was “The Supreme Test of a Thetan”.
“I always make it go right”..”.I’m totally into Spirit of Play”
Because it was obvious that praise was being requested, I’d say something like, “Very well done!” while thinking “Yeah, but you’ve had 9 different type jobs in 4 years”.
Didn’t matter to them. All that mattered – and I do mean ALL – was that they had enough money for their NEXT course, their NEXT auditing action or donation.
Shiftless.
And proud of it.
They’d BRAG about living this way!
I heard it, many times, over the years.
Alcoboy says
I know, Aqua! I had a friend on staff who used to boast how Scientology tech was FAR superior to the two years of college he had done prior to coming into Scientology.

Probably not.

It’s doubtful they know the meaning of irony. 🙂
UTR in St Louis says
Ken – Yes! I have family in and they are doing worse after donating tons of money to the Ideal Org, doing Scientology Bridge and being Scientologists. It is heartbreaking!
THAT also hit me like a fucking beacon in the night
I saw a guy do the L’s at Flag after doing his Bridge. He came back to St Louis and acted 10 feet tall and bullet proof….and completely destroyed his “new life”.
He went on a spending binge – new house, new cars, new lease for business, van, trucks etc….
It all came tumbling down – lost home to foreclosure, lost EVERYTHING. He filed Bankruptcy too.
How’s that for a new life?
He never paid the credit card companies for his Bridge at Flag. Scientology got the money. The credit card companies did not get paid.
How is that for the most ethical beings on the planet?
After the Scientologists don’t honor their aggreements and pay off their debts – they use the the “tech” – L Ron Hubbard’s reference
“Pirates and Bums”
For Xenu’s and Christ the Implant’s sake OSA and Lurkers – do you have any ability to reason left or does that also get audited out along with compassion and empathy?
Therese Grant says
Maybe he could start a religion. Loads of money to be had if you work the scam right.
Silvana Kingsland says
Maybe it will be LRH in a Santa Claus suit, better yet David Miscavige but he will need to wear platform so no one will know it’s him ??

LRH (Old Fish Lips) can be Santa, and Punky can be his elf.

He won’t do it unless his Santa outfit is custom tailored in London! LOL
