Another Tale of Shame at Narconon

March 4, 2008

In the talkback of one of my earlier posts, Eddie Stone shared what his family went through at two different Narconon facilities.  The first in Newport Beach and the second at Narconon Stonehawk.  Scientology knows no shame.  They are about the least ethical people I can imagine.
Here’s Eddie’s story:
My daughter , a crack addict, went to Newport [...]

A Way to Happiness?

November 1, 2007

ORIGINAL BROADCAST DATE: October 31, 2007
CNN’s Anderson Cooper 360 took on Scientology on Halloween. They profiled two Christian churches that are using some of L. Ron Hubbard’s tech in their sermons and in their ministries. Specifically, the Way to Happiness booklet is discussed. This is Hubbard’s “improved” version of the Ten [...]

A Classroom Full O’ Crazy

May 24, 2007

ORIGINAL BROADCAST DATE: Wednesday, May 23, 2007
We could start with the bat-shit insane Glenn Beck but at least his producer was smart enough to have Professor David Touretzky on as a guest to speak about the increased use of Hubbard’s Study Tech in public classrooms. Dr. Dave once again proves that there is no [...]

A New Slant on Tragedy

April 30, 2007

One of the most disturbing aspects of Scientology is their exploitation of human tragedy. On a small scale, they do it every day. When you meet Scientology on the street by stumbling upon a table where they offer a free “Stress Test,” they are trying to “find your ruin.” They are looking [...]

Vinnie Has Stone Hawk Cornered

February 17, 2007

BROADCAST DATE: February 17th, 2007
Vince Daniels devoted the bulk of his radio show today to Scientology’s Narconon Stone Hawk drug rehab front group in Battlecreek, Michigan. It was a terrific show with people who were speaking out against their treatment at the facility for the first time. Vince even managed [...]

Don’t Cross Vince Daniels

January 6, 2007

There are very few people in the media willing to take on Scientology. Vince Daniels is one of them. He has challenged Scientology’s front group Narconon to do the right thing and refund money to parents whose kids were booted out of Hubbard’s dangerous drug-rehab program.
In previous shows, Vince has talked with Greg [...]

Take A Flyer

November 1, 2006

The only time I was ever hit with a Scientology DA flyer was after my first appearance at a picket in Los Angeles back in March of 1999. I had videotaped a picket in honor of L. Ron Hubbard’s birthday. The next day, I got a call from a woman who asked me, “Are you [...]

Putting the Dumb in Freedom

November 1, 2006

Scientology has just spread a new libelous flyer around Jeff Jacobsen’s neighborhood.  This is an old tactic of Scientology which they’ve used less frequently in recent years but which seems to be making a comeback.  It’s funny how whenever you think perhaps Scientology is reforming, they just prove you wrong with some disgusting behaviour straight from the L. Ron Hubbard [...]

A New Word in Literacy - Fraud

October 22, 2006

The Boston Globe has an article about the Scientology literacy program in their city. They set up space near the Boston Org in a building they share with Scientology’s front group for attacking psychiatry, the Citizen’s Commission on Human Rights.
“My goal is to infuse the community with tools they can use,” said Robert [...]
