This week, it’s answers about Sea Org symbolism, a breakdown of OT 8, what I think Miscavige is trying to accomplish in Clearwater and a lot more. Enjoy!
(1) Tony Ortega recently posted a promotional video for the Freewinds featuring Sea Org members with swords. Are there actual LRH policies on swords? Did you have to deal with swords in the Estates Project Force or later in your Sea Org career? Or are the swords just props that Miscavige hands out when he wants to make videos?
(2) Does Scientology in any of its multiple publications actually point out in bullet point fashion or any fashion for that matter, the indisputable wins that you will absolutely have once completing OT 8? It seems to me that not much is ever spoken publicly about this as maybe the reason is that none of what is promised actually happens.
(3) I was reading the latest article by Tracy McManus about the Scientology situation in Clearwater. It describes how entities owned by Scientology members were buying up property around the Flag Land Base and leaving those properties undeveloped. What are they trying to achieve? People have mentioned they want a buffer zone around the Flag land base, but why would this be important to Miscavage? Why go to so much trouble and spend so much money? There are plenty of high-security buildings owned by governments and corporations in built-up areas, why does Scientology feel the need to own entire city blocks? Is it just more Miscavage paranoia, or is there a more rational reasons (as far as any Scientology reason is rational)?
(4) Do you believe there is anything you could write to a Scientology address that the recipient of the letter would read and actually get them thinking that it’s all a waste of their life and talent? Is there a location that has been set up in the country where a defector can go to first to hide and get on their feet? Has anyone thought of setting up a organization for those just leaving the church? Are there a group of volunteers dedicated to covertly retrieving those who wish to leave? And finally is there any way to communicate to the entire organization at once, i.e. a mass email list or something of that nature?
(5) Chris, have you watched the Hollywood Reporter roundtable for Drama Actresses? It is a wonder, considering that Nicole Kidman is an SP that Elizabeth Moss has been allowed to be photographed together, let alone talk to each other. How did they pull this off? Or has Elizabeth Moss finally left Scientology and I can enjoy her new show with a clear conscience?
(6) Have you heard of the Star Wars Ewok Adventures (Caravan of Courage /The Battle for Endor, 1984/1985)? Have you watched them? If so, what are your thoughts on them?
(7) We hear about all the vitamins that scientologist’s take. Does scientology manufacturer them or own a stake in the company that makes them?
(8) Does Dracula worry about Covid?
