Lots of LRH birthday announcements — I didn’t include them all because they are just repetitive….
Everyone is welcome…
As long as we recognize you as a scientologist in good standing with a current photo. No wogs allowed.
They’ve lowered the price!
It’s now a bargain at $8,300 for a bunch of CD’s.
And, great news. They got approval from Bridge to sell them at a discount.
But don’t show your face in the Flag bookstore. You are stealing their potential commissions on new stuff.
LA Org donating money to Albuquerque?
Guys, LA org is failing. Why don’t you concentrate on your own backyard?
There hasn’t been a new mission opened in LA for decades. Anne Archer’s failed Santa Monica mission is probably the last one. Instead of buying carpet for Albuquerque, why not set up a mission? Better yet, why not do something to help the thousands of homeless people within a mile of LA Org?
Mega ANZO Announcement
Whatever that implies, it’s not going to be too “mega” if it’s just the unknown CO CLO announcing it.
And I assume this means Sydney Org doesn’t have a graduation “only ONE graduation” — likely because that “ideal” org doesn’t have a completion.
ASHO + Dong Che Mission
So weird. This is what Hubbard would call “assumed similarities are not similar”
A Birthday Toast
Not an event?
Stories from those who knew him… Wonder if anyone in Chicago ever met him? Or if this is some pre-packaged deal rehashing the Wick Allcock stories…
Keeping people sessionable in a chemically ridden food industry
A chip off the old block — he has to include that Bayer and Monsanto manufactured Zyklon B for the Nazis!
He forgot to mention that Volkswagen and Mercedes built cars for the Nazis and they’re still engaged in a devious plot to pollute the earth and poison our food supply.
4 hours of blah, blah, blah in one afternoon!
But he will teach you how to invade someone else’s privacy. A special piece of scientology registration “technology.”
Sunday School not a big hit…
This ideal org, which is taking over Silicon Valley managed to get 5 kids total for a Sunday School photo op.
“Flag” event
Remember when Flag events used to be Class XII’s. Now they use anyone they can find.
They’ve got a “new” org board?
Guys, you do know the FEBC lectures are from 1968? And the “new” org board with the Product Officer/Org Officer system came out then.
They ALWAYS have to have something “{new” to try to get people interested.
They’re not even doing it live and in person?
Sea Org Recruitment…
Public are doing the recruitment for the SO these days?
Correction on missions: There was ONE mission in LA opened in the last few decades after Santa Monica’s – MELROSE MISSION. It opened, and closed! Probably a rich celeb was making amends by sponsoring it.
HILARIOUS PROMO VIDEO FOR MISSION: https://youtu.be/wew9P_De2Wg?si=QF57nmeRh2WxHeBS
FEBC=Fucking Egregious Bullshitting Cuckolds
The “game” of scientology: be an enthusiastic, totally obedient Theta Boulevard cock sucker whilst being drained of money, assets, common sense, and sanity.
WOW, what a spiritual endeavor!

I find it interesting that opening an organic food farm to feed staff is a “bigger game” for Charles Clarke. Props for wanting to do something good for staff I guess, even if the motive for doing so is completely insane. But these guys are supposed to have cleared the planet yesterday, and not supposed to be aspiring to plant gardens.
Charles Clarke sounds like a nice well meaning guy who is at the same time fatally naive with regard to certain aspects of the Church of Scientology.
As if Miscavige would pay good money to have his Sea Org slaves fed an actually healthy diet! AS IF!!!!
As if HHFT ( High Hair Fake Tan) would part with a single red cent to ensure that his peons eat fresh organic produce!
Fruits , green vegetables, potatoes, corn, etc., grown without poison sprays and chemicals – hah!
Fat chance, if you’ll pardon the pun.
THESE are the foods COB eats, count on it. Along with his wild caught salmon, New Zealand organically fed lamb, organic free range chicken and other poultry, grass fed beef – the finest fresh produce grown without poison sprays , GMO or other cancer causing chemicals comprise Tiny Fists’ 3 squares a day.
He works so hard, you know? The world is on HIS shoulders; Scientology’s tiny little Atlas. The entire future of mankind depends upon his wise decisions. He deserves the best of everything, and gets it, and still, the debt to him from lesser beings will be repaid. He is THAT valuable.
As for the multitude of lesser beings who do the grunt work, well, factory farm chicken factory farm eggs, GMO-grown rice and beans, and by way of a salad maybe some iceberg lettuce with a mealy tomato wedge are what his Billion Year Contracted Slaves eat – that is, if they eat at all.
Charlie is a good guy. It’s unfortunate that he’s still in.
When Dennis had a stroke, and left homeless he was dumped by scn,
Charlie came to take care of him and took him in.
Dennis was not an easy person to be around, but you’d think that scn would take care of their freedom medal winner. So out PR for the C of S.
Kailey and her 2D are selling off multiple e-meters and other brand new stuff so they can give even more money back to the church. Kailey and her 2D will do whatever it takes to get on that bridge to nowhere. It’s a shame they don’t sell the stuff and take the money and run.
“Increase your skills in invasion of privacy…”
Definitely a priority of mine – NOT.
Jesus Christ.
I just saw on you tube that they took down Phil’s billboard on Sunset or Fountain Ave across from AOLA that showed the number to call for help from the Aftermath Fdn to leave the church and leave the SO. Why? Why was this billboard taken down? I’m pretty sure that Phil paid for more than a week. It was up for a day or two and now it’s down? What happened?
Breaking news is that someone took down the billboard that Phil and the Aftermath Fdn put up across from AOLA. Darn. So what is the plan now? Can we have the ad company put it up again? Do we need to start a Go Fund Me to get the money to pay for another ad to go up?
I always laugh when someone says “DM me”.
The pictures that go along with the Sunday school post give me a weird feeling. The people in them kind of seem soulless. That could just be me though. It is sad how children get involved in something like Scientology.
I know that feeling. It’s like looking at pictures of the passengers embarking upon the Titanic before its final voyage. I’ve described it as looking at people looking back at you that just crossed the Event Horizon on their way into black hole oblivion. They aren’t evil, for the most of them. They are just conned.
“This is an exclusive seminar and will have limited seating.”
OK, I stopped laughing now.
That comment would not dent an OSAs staffs Armour.
Dearest OSA. I definitely know you guys read Mike’s blog, so hello.
Someone asked me how OSA guys could read all comments and not be affected. I said : to them, the comments are like what a person who was trained to handle septic and sewage issues are like, pretty easily ignored as a stinky hazard of the job. They get “cleaned up” themselves every once in awhile, as it does have an impact.
But everyone has their own mind, and there are some things that the mind can’t easily resolve. Those leave a mark.
The one thing after my thirty years in, which was the main unresolvable was this:
IF WE WERE SO EXPERT AT EVERYTHING, AND WE KNOW WE ARE, WHERE IS EVERYBODY? WHY HAS THIS NOT BEEN FIXED? WHY DOES IT SEEM TO BE JUST GETTING WORSE?
“There is limited seating as befitting what is expected to be limited attendance.”
Fixed it for ‘ya, kult.
Ah, it’s true, when it comes to scn there’s no privacy. It’s stuff for the wogs. If a reg or tech guy asks you something personal and you don’t want to answer because it’s your business, well, you’re starting to risk (withholds…!) because if you’re in scn you don’t have a right to any stupid privacy. They want to know everything about you, including your first kiss and with whom and all details. Otherwise, how the heck can they ‘help’ you if they don’t understand where you can get all the money they want and manage your damn counter-intentions to be saved?
The new org board? But tons of them must have been published and they keep changing. Oh, but this one is the final one, like all the other times. What a bunch of clowns, but can they manage to get one stable piece of tech that can last a few years?
I can’t get over how obnoxious L Ron Hubbards birthday event announcement is. It is too much to take in with how absurd the whole concept of a celebration of LRHs life when he is proven to be a liar and a fraud.

The photo of the L.A. OT Committee above clearly shows the average age of current members.
“Almost all new religions die. Often it takes several generations for the death to occur. It’s hard to see in the future how groups like Scientology will have long-term staying power. Probably Scientology is in its early days of decline.”
Stephen A. Kent, sociology professor emeritus at the University of Alberta.
Thank you for the quote. Very fitting.
If I’m allowed I would only correct the part where it says “in its early days of decline”. From what I understand, the decline began in the late ’70s, and lately, with the advent of the golden age of tech (1996) then internet and the COVID period, it seems more to be entering a phase of convulsions and spasms, with evident signs of cannibalization within itself, almost like a kind of autoimmune reaction. Sad picture.
I’m shocked that there’s only ten OT committee members in one of the most populated areas of scn. The photo is proof of shrinkage.
Imagine public seeing that LA has less OT committee members than their own org. This ad is very bad PR but they can’t even see that.
Good point! I also hadn’t seen that – mea culpa.
@AnEx,
I make a (very) informal study of ancient cultures, civilizations, religions, etc. I wish I didn’t have to work so I could study this full time. I find this subject fascinating.
For example, the Incas, Mayans and Aztecs were super intelligent and skilled in many ways and yet they died out. Well, more accurately, they were conquered and enslaved by the cruel Spanish conquistadors. But why? In my opinion, they did themselves in. They were sacrificing their own babies and children as part of their religious beliefs. Now the conquistadors were seemingly much less intelligent and far less skilled than these native Mexicans, Central Americans and South Americans. They wanted gold, they wanted riches. They were plunderers plus they were ruthless, savagely cruel, merciless, greedy and ignorant. But they had one huge, ethical advantage. In war tjeu were killing OTHER peoples’s children, but then, they weren’t sacrificing their OWN children for religious purposes – a totally non survival action for any group to do – and the natives WERE doing that and HAD been doing that for centuries. In my opinion, that’s what did them in. You can disagree, I could be wrong.
Now, the Sea Org used to allow its member to have children – before 1986, am I right? And even though the nursuries were abominably staffed and the conditions within them were frightful, well at least the SO could HAVE kids and those children had a fairly decent chance of surviving. But then, the order came down; No Sea Org members could have children, and if they did, the options were abortion, or the pregnant couple got shunted off to head up some small failing Class V org to fend for themselves, food, clothing and shelter wise. They were STILL Sea Org but on their own as heads of Class V orgs, with no money (probably) no salary, and a baby to support.
Now, I ask you, is this policy conducive to survival of the Sea Org?
And then there’s Sea Org marriage; more like barnyard animals being coupled and uncoupled by the farmer who owns the land (Miscavige). The marriage certificate means NOTHING when its a Sea Org marriage.
Here’s my point: Leaving aside ALL the abuse, the long hours, the no days off, the low pay – being monitored and physically controlled 24/7 – leaving aside ALL of this, not taking ANY of this into consideration – just the fact that Sea Org members can be married legally and yet as a couple wholly subject in every way to the whims and caprices of David Miscavige as well as forbidden to have children – just these policicies alone means the demise of the Sea Org is BAKED IN. Its just my opinion of course, but any group that BY LAW allows its children to be destroyed, whether it be by infanticide, child sacrifice, OR by forbidding the group to have them in the first place – that group, or that civilization, in my opinion, is doomed, and they’re dooming themselves by their own laws. Their doom is baked in, just on these two paoints alone. My opinion.
Acqua indeed, nothing could be more true. The group that holds the tech to clear everything, from Earth to the farthest galaxy, has shot itself in both feet big time.
It’s yet another confirmation of how scn has a natural ability to make out of any situation a mess.
Proof that you don’t have to be dead to be a fossil.
I’m pretty sure david miscavige has determined that Class VIII’s and Class VI’s are squirrel creations because he’s pulled the Tech Volumes and the Courses for these two classifications.
Funny how the church rolls out a “Class VIII Auditor and C/S” but there no longer is such a thing being created. The promo for Irving should say, “SQUIRREL Class VIII Auditor and C/S.”
Good points. And in the promo pieces above, some mention was made of Class XII. Really? Are there any left now? One Class XII left the church, Karen de la Carrier. Another Class XII has been driving the SO bus for decades after he got busted. But where are the other Class XII’s? I don’t think there are any more left in the SO. IF there were any left, they would be hosting the events and not a mere “Class VIII.”
