Another blog on Scientology: TheFrameProblem

Greetings all,

I run a blog entitled "The Frame Problem". For the past few months I have been covering Scientology very thoroughly, averaging about 2 Scientology posts per day, and will continue to do so. During this time I have had a few discussions with Scientologists in the comment sections, and will continue to do so in a civilized and honest way.

TFP is another good source for up-to-date info on the protest and the cult's misdeads, as well as dozens of posts on their deplorable history, and links to leading critic sites such as XenuTV, Operation Clambake, ExScientologyKids, etc.

Scientology The Frame Problem

Is it a herd of buffalo's on the run? Is it a stampede of Rhino's? No....it is the internetz thundering into Davey's *

You can keep this thread, but stop spamming the breaking news forum.

To the moderator:

Honestly, what the hell? Every thing I write on is a significant issue. I'm not just spamming. The things I put on my blog are at the core of the issues of this protest. Yes, I want to increase readership of the blog, but this is a win-win situation. I win because I hopefully generate some additional traffic, and we all win because everyone gets another source of info on the subject matter, and the higher my blog ranks on Google searches (as a function of its traffic), the better for this protest.

I write well, I post frequently on big issues in the protest and crimes of Scientology, and I spread the word of the protest, the issues, and my site (which spreads the word of the protest and the issues). So yes, I can see how you would find my actions to be antithetical to this site and/or the movement and how you'd find it to be disruptive......

There you go +1 hits to your counter. No I didn't read it.

Anonymous is not your personal traffic booster. :)

love your site!

Solution: Post a link to your blog in your signature, updating when necessary (LIKE EVERYONE ELSE) or mention it in relevant threads.

Over-kill is over. Kthanxbai.

Edit: I checked out you blog, and I like it as well. However, the above still applies. Totally.

tl_dr but I made your counter go up by one. You're welcome.

Now please follow the advice of the other Anon's and stop spamming.

The Carnival of the Fraudless: Spoofing & Exposing the Cult of Scientology The Frame Problem

Carnival of the Fraudless is the first Blog Carnival dedicated to spoofing and exposing the Cult of Scientology. In fact, it seems to be the first Blog Carnival on Scientology at all.

Submit hilarious spoofs and well-produced expository pieces for publication. Content can be video, photo, text or audio.

It's true, I am "one of us". And I'm so pumped by how well things are going with the protests.

And it's also true that I'm a mini micro blogger, but the blog has been doing pretty well for a mini micro - tending to get about 800 hits a day. That's probably less than 20% of what WBM gets, but I do what I can to spread the good word. Prior to the protest, the blog was (and still is) a blog focusing on the intersections of religion with politics, science, ethics, culture and cognition written from the perspective of a highly-intellectually honest atheist. I still post on the same issues I posted on before, but Scientology has come to represent at least 60% of my posts over the past 9-10 weeks.

Unrelated: I was in Toronto today and I stopped by the local CoS. I went in unmasked and just completely normally and casually and went up to the front desk and politely asked if I could speak to someone who was in charge or held some position of leadership or whatever. The nice attendant first responded with a bit of confusion, saying something like "well, we're a church..." as if that would mean that there really isn't someone "in charge" - which of course isn't true. I was about to say "well, is there someone here that would be analogous to a reverend" when the attendant asked what I wanted to speak in regard to. So I responded by saying that I was concerned because it seems to me that the organization had been promulgating some lies, particularly with regard to the protesters. I was surprised by his first response, which essentially was to repeat "protesters" as if he didn't know what I meant. So he said "protesters?" and I said "yes" (I wasn't going to just give him a definition of "protester" - I was pretty sure he would know what the term means) and he responded "You mean those people with the signs..." to which I responded affirmatively, managing to keep a completely straight face (feel free to clap). So I continued saying that the organization, in its numerous press statements, have continued to depict the protesters as a homogenous group of hate-mongers and terrorists. I conceded that the first protesters of Anonymous did engage in a lot of hacking and aggressive behaviours, but that has changed substantially while the PR statements of CoS have not. This is dishonest. I told him that I, in fact, am a protester, and I've done nothing illegal nor do I have any interest in infringing upon any religious freedoms. I just oppose the criminal behaviour. And thus, I came in today to have a civil discussion, and came in without a mask.

So it was around this point that he thought about whom he could hook me up with to talk to. He figured the best person who was around at the time was a guy named David (I can't remember the last name; I think it a German/Jewish last name like Feldman or something like that). He called up to him and told him that an unmasked protester would like to speak to him. David told him that he was unavailable at the moment, but if I'd like to leave my name and phone number he can call me. My response was that I would rather not give such information, given the track record of the organization following and harassing critics - this, in fact, is precisely why the protesters wear masks, and why I was slightly hesitant to come in unmasked but did anyway. So I told him that I would stop by the CoS again the next time I was in the area, politely shook his hand and said goodbye, and that was my visit. As far as I can tell, I was not followed nor was a photo taken - though I'm sure I'm probably on their internal camera system.
