We visited the Church of Scientology's Inglewood Ideal Org and Inglewood Community Center on Martin Luther King Day 2017.  Pictures of our visit below prove that almost nobody was there, that much of the equipment for proselytizing was broken, that their computers run ancient Windows XP, and that they have security cars.  What kind of religion needs security vehicles? Plus one had a flat tire.  Hmm.

At the Ideal Org security constantly monitored us to make sure we took no pictures. Ooops sorry.  I took plenty of pics as you will see below.  But there are even more images of the Inglewood Community Center where we wandered at will unattended.  We saw no evidence that the building had been used in the five years since it opened. And, with everyone at the Martin Luther King Day parade, their security was nil. 

At first I was overwhelmed by the production design and attention to detail. Just check all the custom artwork and signage images below.  It has the same level of theming as Disneyland or Universal Studio's "Jurassic Park." It was like I was wandering in a "lost world."  Eventually, though, the whole place took on the feel of the haunted, empty hotel in THE SHINING by Stanley Kubrick.  Don't get me started on how Scientology ruined Kubrick's final year by absorbing his daughter MAGA and Qanon nut Vivian Kubrick after the production of the movie "Eyes Wide Shut."
