Scientology’s “Ideal Org” uniform

idealorg-scientology-smallThey call themselves the Ideal Org and in the latest Scientology magazine they even have their own uniform. Leaked images landed in my inbox overnight and I had to share the air hostess/hotel staff like uniforms which are designed for versatility in all occasions and they embody “the essence of international style”. Errrr ok. Check out the images at the Why We Protest forums, it’s fascinating viewing and reading.

According to the accompanying magazine article the uniforms:

In its entirety, the uniform embodies the essence of international style – at home in Rome or London, but not out of place in Nashville or Inglewood, and equally well suited to South Africa and Australia.

But even more so, it unifies every Ideal Org staff member planetwise – making a statement about the purpose they hold in common, and providing the dignity due these emissaries of a new civilization already on its way.

Like most uniforms, its purpose may to unify people but I’d run if I saw a pack of people dressed in these red and black uniforms all looking like Stepford-wives.

What do you think the likes of Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes would look like in them?

    Hi, I’d just like to clear up a confusion: The “Ideal Org” is not Scientology as a whole, but selected Class V orgs (called “Churches” when speaking to outsiders) which are getting an upgrade of the premises.

    The plan was to release certain secret goodies to Scientologists when the orgs were the size of the St. Hill org in its glory days. Well, it seems they have no chance to grow the orgs to that size, and not even St. Hill is St. Hill-sized these days. So instead of going for this goal of a certain number of staff and members, David Miscavige has decided to instead pursue “ideal orgs”.

    What it boils down to is that lots of Scientologists are being shaken down for donations and free labor to upgrade their real estate, fill it with flown-in staff members, and then keep it running until they’ve run out of money. Rinse, repeat.

    Yes, the uniforms are very impressive as well as the ideal orgs, I’ve visited two of them. The orgs I saw are beautiful and extremely functional.

    I don’t see anything wrong with members donating and volunteering their services to renovate their building, other churches do it all the time.

    Sounds like a Nazi worker’s camp a la world war II. Hubbard sounds just like Hitler. The Fourth Reich.
