Not surprisingly, the volume of promotional materials coming out of scientology has been remarkably reduced as they don’t want to be overtly telling people to come in to the organizations (even if secretly, this is IS what they want).
They’re still only delivery basic courses
This “ideal org” doesn’t have much to show for millions invested.
Highest Ever!
They saved them up for the last week of the Birthday Game.
And these numbers won’t Clear even England (let alone the rest of the UK) EVER.
Poor kid…
She can read better?
I hope she doesn’t try flying out a window.
Another big course completed…
These ideal orgs are churning out the auditors and Clears.
Who wants to bet this guy has done this course before.
Our landlord closed our building…
Yikes.
Such generosity
Free crap fiction!

Maybe they think Purif = healthy?
So, this is OK…

Is everyone still welcome?

Business as Usual in Ireland
This one just came in…
I guess they do buy into the “planetary bullbait” line. And you know what you do with bullbait. Ignore it.
A micro cult facing a micro virus lower the odds of the clearing of a planet.
In France, the Paris Celeb Centre (“The Tomb of the Unknown Celebrity”) invited to a series of open mic nights. The invitation went out on March 19th and included a formal ticket booking link and everything. And then an eagle-eyed critic spotted it and the proper authorities shut it down.

So the sex scenes in the Mission Earth decology are appropriate for children of all ages.
Not at any of the schools that I have taught at!
These arrogant and ignorant wannabes have taken a leaf straight out of El Con’s playbook, ‘Minimalist Researching’.
Maybe Slappy should take that course on controlling one’s emotions.
I once took a similar WOG course where I counted to 1 through to 10.
Sorry to say I failed. 🙁
After reaching 10 I still wanted to punch Slappy in the face.
In primary (elementary) school prep students (5-6 year olds) are provided with a timetable of the forthcoming weekly activities. Such an arrangement carried on through my primary, secondary and university (college) years. ‘Effective Time Management’ is not ground breaking technology!
Many moons ago when I was drinking the Kool-Aid completing a course such as ‘Effective Time Management’ would hardly warrant an acknowledgement – now they are front page news.
I am so mad right now. I spent all that money for student loans and years in college to get my Master’s degree in mathematics and it was all because of a MU? Oh, the misery remembering the years to pay back the loans. If only there was a MU so the kids in class would have paid attention! That would have been useful tech!!
Putting a child through the purification rundown has to be considered child abuse in any civilized country in the world. How any parent could do that to their child is bewildering to me. Something needs to be done!!
Hey people I love you. Since I frequent you I am completely detox from Crushology. THANK YOU. Simply a tip from Italy: stay at home as much as possible and follow the rules. Here it starts to work. Rules must be followed. And I assure you that with dozens and dozens of doctors who died unfortunately due to covid 19 is not “hysteria” as said by DMM (David Mickey Mouse).
Here in Italy it’s not a joke. Dozens and dozens of frontline doctors infected and dead. Statistics and names. These are facts, they are neither dramatizations nor hysteria. Miscavige looks at the real data. Look at them! Watch NYC to get started. Then see what you are creating. And then go to hell with yourself and your void Ignw 88. Hysteria is only in your sick head.
So God Damned laughable…..if it weren’t so serious a threat.
STATE OF MAN…..Los Angeles, California…..Where the Covid 19 Virus is infecting hundreds to thousands of people….
YUP, c’mon on folks,….for a few donations we will glad put you in CLOSE CONTACT with someone who will share the virus with you…ALL are welcome….except for current S. P’.s of course….
We have in overstocked XENU hand sanitizer & spray……can’t guarantee it’s effectiveness but HEY, what the heck.
“Poor kid…
She can read better?
I hope she doesn’t try flying out a window” .
It is hoped that she has “sweated” everything, and that she has not yet, due to the haste, drugs or chemicals still circulating. Otherwise….
I thought that success story was sad. Poor kid, didn’t know what to say, came up with that. How are you going to red better fro, the Purif? Perhaps she couldn’t express what she really meant, like “my vision has improved, and I’ve noticed it especially when reading”?
SO FOLKS…I JUST COMPLETED THE NATIONAL 2020 CENSUS ON LINE….very easy…quickly done….not too confusing ….
What is the saddest part is to think of some of the people whose name MAY appear on the form….& then they aren’t “with us” anymore due to the spreading of the virus…….
People here are taking the bus to NYC for work & family…..TOO RISKY…they are “cancelling bus service to NYC for TWO WEEKS….like THAT is going to help when NYC is ALREADY saturated & THOSE VISITING NYC from OTHER STATES have a good chance of spreading the Virus further.
I answered a question about this on Twitter and want to provide the information here.

All Hubbard’s fiction is suitable for readers of all ages? Really? His last “satirical” novel is very … racy.
My parents were uncomfortable with me reading “Mission Earth” when I was a teen, but it’s LRH, and who can go against him? It’s an insight into his depravity when he wrote it. I will acknowledge the feat of not only intending to write a ten-volume story, but actually completing it. His true gift, which is the only thing he should be recognised for, was his ability to write voluminously, and fast. That’s separate to quality of content.
Favoritw “virtual concert type: “FAR AWAY”.
OOPS, FAT, FUMBLY FINGERS:
Favorite concert type:”FAR AWAY“
Laughing.
You ask, sir if ee are all welcome. First I must apologize for calling you sir after you told me to adress you as “Mike”. In one of the last conversations I had with Mike Napier; Captain of the Freewinds, here had referred to himself as ” Mike” . (I have never called him or referred to him as ” Mike” he was always the Captain. I certainly would not confuse you with him even though some years ago I could not even recognize my wife.
LRH says in an FO entitled “Are you Welcome” that those that wear their hat are welcome in thr S. O.
In my humble but possibly flawed opinion, Sir, You are wearing your hat to the highest degree. Therefore, you are at least as welcome as any other person at the event. Now, i would love to go to the event as I am an SP and would love to see their reation to a dead man coming to their event.
THROUGHUGH FACEBOOK “through UGH”. Intentional typo or Freudian slip? If they didn’t publish everything in-house a conscientious printer may have brought that to their attention. However, they have probably face ripped any well meaning outside printers into submission long ago. Oh well.
When you are so certain you are infallible, you look even more ridiculous to the outside world.
Excuse me, but ”
“Face ripping I thought was invented by a former wife of mine Sharron Elizabeth Petersen Corbell Straass Weber the current COFSSO. She will need the royalties on this for her retirement as she was born on Oct 1950.
Sharrron was way late on the chain of face rippers. Hubbard set that mold and privately apprenticed persons in the chain of command directly underneath him for decades in that art.
In fall of 1995 I became the temporary Exec Esto at ASI, and my immediate first job was post an I & R for ASI, someone with enough gumph to get in Norman Starkey’s ethics, type of ethics altitude person.
I realized, as I was soon failing on this Exec Exto for ASI position, that Hubbard’s system just hasn’t proven workable, just too many good execs of more benign personalities fail and get toasted and self eject to get out of the frying pan ridiculous predicaments that accrue in every single one of the Hubbard org boarded Scientology and Sea Org units, so this was going to be a futile job, both I & R for the top most execs of the movement, and the job, mine, to establish personnel to enforce the Hubbard administrative rules and regulations and hatting and establishing and cleanup and patch up that an Esto is supposed to be able to do.
There are no long range top execs that have survived, only the top banana, in the upper ranks. A frew “top” execs, like the CC Int Commanding Officer Petit has hung in there. Vicki Shantz at CO CLO WUS. I think Walter Kotric as CO CLO EU has hung in there.
Jeannie Sonnenfeld (Franks, Bogvad, Danilovich is her maiden name, she’s the sister of John Danilovich) she’s been up and down and she was in LA for cleanup last I heard.
There just is a futile long range failure rate of the Scientology movement’s history of leaders.
When Miscavige had his realization of stepping up to become the “top” person in the movement, he grasped only that he needed to survive by getting up high enough so no one, and also dodge Hubbard’s wrath and not be dislodged by Hubbard until Hubbard died, and Miscavige realized how to just hang on, once he got the unchecked top cult boss of the movement today.
Everyone else, below, unless they are in niche irreplaceable specialized jobs, all the volatile more ups and down heads of units jobs, there is the inevitable turnover.
SRA was a cop out, and even in the Esto tapes, once place Hubbard gives the briefest admission that “blowing someone’s head off” isn’t good, it is a mistake and the Esto is to go patch up that staff who just had their head blown off by the irate exec, but Hubbard also says that blowing off steam by execs is something that can be expected, there are just too many Flag Orders where LRH does just that. “Wrath is effective but only used in moderation” it says something like that in “Ethics Presence” (Flag Order turned into Policy Letter).
Hubbard mental health problems are today inextricably tied into just so many unrevisable Hubbard movement administrative policy letters rules, it is impossible to fix his system.
He left that system roll all the way to his death. Even though he had a few moments of despair that he’d failed, he admitted, which are in the must must must read final pages of Lawrence Wright’s “Going Clear…” book which are the best final “Source” briefing all ex staffers and all Scientologists ought to read and sober up on Hubbard’s flawed personality. He was quitting the movement, in honesty, in his admissions of failure to Sarge at the end of his life.
I don’t think he fully admitted he was pulling the plug on the movement, since Ray Mithoff did the final “ENd of Life” sessions on Hubbard before Hubbard died, and I don’t think anyone heard that same admission that Hubbard made to Sarge, so the other top execs and persons around Hubbard at the end of his life only noticed Hubbard’s feeble mindedness, but not Hubbard’s despair and feelings of failure that Hubbard admitted to Sarge.
The Scientology operation and all the executive misbehavior SRA, “wrath is effective if only used in moderation”, and “bait and badgering” of the Esto step training for executives, and “push production until your run into stops and blow the stops off the line with ethics” (that was the final WDC 86 LRH strategy of 1982 onwards), all this is Hubbard’s mental deficiencies as a movement maker.
It’s all on Hubbard, I feel. People holding the positions, are just playing out Hubbard’s required tools for their positions, as they were apprenticed to be like Hubbard.
Chuck Beatty
ex OEC/FEBC Asst Course Sup, and a whole bunch of other wasted years in other positions in the administrative rungs of the Hubbard nutty movement, 1975-2003.
Not KTL graduates! I’m constantly aware of how non-existent that course is now. These noobs have probably never heard of it!
Gary’s Success Story for completing the Effective Time Management course is pretty much all the same B.S. I would write in my Success Stories. Make it sound good enough, repeat the same sentence in a different order, say how you will apply it to your life, fake a F/N and leave before the Reg finds you.
I really like the Irish one. Understand how to manage emotions. But sorry, when a reg takes you into an interview for the fifth time in a week, or you get messages and calls of all kinds for donations or to attend an event, or the IAS regs arrive at your house just before dinner to tell you that maybe tomorrow won’t come if you don’t make a donation right away, so what would those emotions be? Or how do you manage them?
“maybe tomorrow won’t come if you don’t make a donation right away”
??? I’ve NEVER heard that one, but I wouldn’t put it past them to try that sort of illogical garbage.
That said, my phone is far across the room with the ringer turned down as it’s now just an hour before 2 PM on Thursday and I’m not interested!
Yes. Years ago every ias event or reg interview would sound like if a huge disaster was coming and the donation that night would change the situation. Like to say that tomorrow won’t come (the end) is that money quota won’t be made. Illogical.
IF that quota…. Me too big fingers.
Yes, as they say; there IS a huge disaster coming. It is THEY who are coming. They are a disaster comparable to the plague. If you can only just fail to support them, you will have done your duty.
“Do you sometimes find that your emotions are controlling you instead of you controlling your emotions?”
Well, we sure do have the answer to that. Even though you really don’t want any answer.
After all, do you believe that your emotions are something that are supposed to be controlled by you? If you believe that, don’t worry. Our reges can fix that right up for you. After they get through with you, you will never again be controlled by your emotions. Our reges will be happy to control every single aspect of your life – especially your financial life. They will have you “donating” so much of your money to our crutch that you absolutely will not know where it is or where it went. All you will know is that it’s all gone and all kinds of creditors are calling you night and day. They all want their money. You will owe them all kinds of money. Far more than you have ever earned. And it’s all thanks to the Crutch of Scamatology. You won’t have any time for any other emotions. You will just be so worried that you owe all this money which you will never be able to pay back. You can get down on your knees and thank the Crutch. Our crutch will become your crutch and you will never have to lean on anything else – not ever again.
So … come on in and get started on the crutch! your life will never be the same!
““Do you sometimes find that your emotions are controlling you instead of you controlling your emotions?””
Do you sometimes feel you feel no honest emotions, but are rather sociopathic?
Skyler. Laughing. Also ‘the Crush of Scamology’ sounds good.
Thank you Jere. I was worried that my mind was sputtering due to this infection so I appreciated your reassurance.
Crush of Scamology sounds good to me too! I am happy to see you in good spirits given all the unhappiness in Italy. I sincerely hope you will come through this in good health and good spirits!
How do you say, “Best of Luck to You” in Italian?
Oops. My reply to LosingMyReligion somehow got jumbled together with my previous reply to Jere. Very sorry. I wouldn’t ask Jere how to say a phrase in Italian. But I do wish Jere “Best of Luck” and “I hope you come through this infection in good health and good spirits!”
We say Buona fortuna.
Thank you Skyler, here is all ok, I got my daughters granddaughters wife and husbands a house beside the see. We are isolated since more than 2 weeks. It is gonna be fine.
Sorry beside the sea.
I just hope we come through this horror in good shape so that I can finally get to take a trip to Italy. I have always wanted to visit two countries: Italy and France. Just to taste the food. In my country people recognize Italy and France as having the very best food in the world. I so would love to try it.
But switching gears to talk about “crushing debt”. The is no debt like scamology debt. People who have never experienced scamology debt just have no idea how terrifying debt can be.
When people join this horror show, they have some incredible debt foisted upon them. They just don’t know what hit them.
There is no debt in this world like scamology debt. It leads me to understand how and why some people suicide. I just hope that you and all your compadres will escape the crushing debt of this crutch.
I say, “Buona fortuna” to you LoosingMyReligion. I hope you will some day find your religion once again.
Thank you Skyler. When you decide to come to Italy let me know. As far as “my religion” is concerned, I am really glad I got rid of it. Also as an idea. Now I can live my spiritual reality that is truly (right or wrong) my experience. And where I must not think I have not yet arrived. Good luck pal.
Here’s a little news blurb from the likes of David M…no actually, it IS David M.
https://www.yahoo.com/news/scientology-chief-david-miscavige-coronavirus-204849291.html
Hey! This is great, Balletlady! I encourage everyone to click on!
The author states, “For the last 11 days, all Scientologists have been getting calls to come down and read it in person.” He goes on to say he thinks the reason has something to do with the scam not wanting anyone outside the bubble to see it.
But my guess is they want people to come in because they have a much better chance to “Reg” them out of their money when they get them in a room in person where they will have a very hard time getting out until they give up some money.
It’s like Mike has said, The people who run Scamology never fail to disappoint when it comes to doing things that are predictible in their stupidity. That is not an exact quote. I’m just saying Mike has said words to that effect.
Mike or Sir as I would like to refer to him knows goddamn well what the story is. He knows, as I do, that those reges are doing them all a favor by taking their money.
What will they need money for when they are dead?
Now, I will attempt, perhaps in vain to mitigate that last statement by saying that just because I will likely be dead soon is no reason that I should lump you fine people into my fate.
Although my extermination is all but assured; perhaps even deserved, My wish for you people is that you reach your goals and are happy in this life.
If you do that I can die with no regrets..
Tony Ortega has the whole Miscavige Bulletin over at his blog. It’s an interesting read. It is truly the ravings of a narcissistic madman. It was posted a day or so ago and several other news services are quoting him and his blog. I’m glad it’s seeing some wider coverage.
Thanks OSD….I thought everyone should read this article……..he has NO SOUL to put everyone in danger. Louisiana is terrified the recent yearly celebration is going to spread the virus like wild fire to OTHER states due to outside the state attendees “enjoying themselves” in close contact in the French Quarter….too sad
Best wishes to you, your lovely wife, family!
Thanks, but you did all the work, My Lady.
Great article!
Thank you my friend Aqua! It nearly floored me, as we all know it’s all about the LOSS of “donations” from parishioners & staff….. Hoping all is well with you & your family! Love to all!
All it means is that he absolutely terrified that some $camologists might start thinking for themselves and realise that have wasted years of their lives and desert the sinking Miscavige. The other thing that will have him in a lather is the possible loss of drinking and hair transplant money he won’t see if the sheepbots are forced to stay away.
Anyone else see him sending SO troops out in force to check and lean on the ‘bots?
“This will benefit me and them greatly and improve my area and life.”
Excuse me for maybe jumping to a conclusion. But this sentence does not make any sense whatsoever. Does it make any sense to you? It sounds to me as if the writer was stoned out on some kind of Meth or other drug that makes thinking difficult to impossible. It just makes no sense at all. Or am I missing the point?
Skyler, that jumble of words you pointed out DIDN’T make sense. Or rather, it didn’t make sense to someone who did NOT study Tubby’s re-definition of correct grammar. What did they call it? Key to life? pure garbage, as can be seen there.
Thank you Jere. I was worried that my mind was sputtering due to this infection so I appreciated your reassurance.
I’m surprised they’ve let “outflow” drop. As covered over at The Bunker this morning, they’re actually trying to go out in neighborhoods handing out literature and, in some cases, supposed disinfecting products that are dubious if not dangerous.
I would have expected them to shift to promoting doing extension courses. They seem unable to change gears and do webinars and online meetings, which could allow them to try to keep up with the “prosperity seminars” and that sort of thing. I suspect they’re hampered both by adherence to Hubbard’s 1950s era “tech,” and also the realization that their approach relies on in-person contact where it’s easier to make people feel pressured, including putting them in rooms where they can be literally held as captive audiences with staff barring the exit.
It will be interesting to see if there are now a wave of “flaps” like in Italy where they get caught trying to flout closure and quaranting orders, and keep up in-person meetings and
Also, I bet this will kill off a lot of the remaining missions that have been holding on, like Foothills. Landlords are going to be somewhat forgiving, but it will still be hard for the operations to ever open again – and some missionholders may welcome a sort of excuse for getting out from under the burden of trying to sustain money-losing operations.
Peacemaker, Hubbard was obsessed by technology that was found to be ineffective in the 50s or before.He couldn’t have predicted, or allowed for anything more advanced than he was well acquainted with, never guessed that something better than the Telex machine would come along, that Star Trek’s communicators would be left in the dust (or ion trail) by the 21st Century, often before. As a science fiction writer, he wasn’t very imaginative. As a fiction science writer, he had some imagination, but always missed the mark — even (or particularly) when it concerned the present or near future.(a.k.a “reality”.
Jere, the abreaction therapy that Hubbard saw in the Navy and copied to create Dianetics, is a classic example, and was abandoned before 1950. While it seemed to often produce an impression of powerful change, it turned out not only to be ineffective in the long run, and thus not to produce the promised results, but also had the downside of causing a significant number of people to get worse or even experience psychosis – which is kind of the history of Dianetics and Scientology in a nutshell.
Not only was he not that imaginative, he wasn’t that good a planner, not even thinking through how to set Scientology up to handle technological changes and advances he couldn’t foresee – among other possible changed external forces, such as we now wee. He could have set them up with some flexibility to adapt, I’d imagine by some artifice like claiming that he knew about future technology but couldn’t give away specific secrets.
Peace maker. Right. They cannot keep the self away from saving this sector 9.
Ignw 88 tells them to do just that. The world of wogs is hysterical and dramatizes.
DM is acting criminally and so is anyone who follows him. I spoke to doctors who are on the front lines and said there is little to joke about. This is something never seen before.
In the head these alienates of the cult have howler monkeys squabbling.
