Does your religion have a hard-sell sales force that earns commissions on every course, book and therapy session? Can you earn 10% of every cent spent by a friend you convinced to join your religion? Then you follow that humbug L. Ron Hubbard. Tax Scientology now.

You’ve rocked the world! Keep up the great work. Miscavige is circling the wagons here in Clearwater. It’s The Shrinking World of David Miscavige.
Nine years ago this week, the news came out that I left Scientology.
It hasn't always been easy to adjust after 35 years of brainwashing in a cult, but I'm getting there.
I just wanted to thank you all for your support.
I'm going to keep fighting to expose the truth.

Ten years of unprecedented education of the public on how Scientology behaves. Happy Anniversary Queen SP!
This week marks ten years since I publicly left Scientology.
I use the word "publicly" intentionally, as it is a high crime in Scientology to leave publicly. People who commit such high crimes are declared suppressive persons (enemies) and risk losing everything they've ever

David Miscavige tells his followers that Scientology is well respected across the globe yet they need to use fronts to try to get anything done. Deceptions like this are just a tiny part of why no one trusts this organization.

This type of payola is pretty common but it is shameful when the money taken is from such a dangerous organization. Scientology doesn't want to be a partner. Miscavige wants Clearwater to surrender, accept becoming the first Scientology City and force a pained smile.

Will powerhouse law firms who tackled Nxivm, ExxonMobil and other high profile abusive organizations be able to penetrate Scientology's "religious cloak?" I sure hope so.
Scientology indoctrinated and trafficked children and made it financially, physically and psychologically impossible for them to leave as adults, according to a lawsuit filed Thursday against leader David Miscavige.

Opening position for Clearwater's negotiations with David Miscavige should be for Miscavige to show he wants a thriving downtown by a) recruiting a theater chain and b) stopping Disconnection. One brings a major draw to the district. Other shows they can change.

Interesting how Miscavige can swap his parishioners' properties to get what Miscavige lusts after. He orchestrated this to hold the downtown hostage all the while whining that "Clearwater treats me so unfairly!"
Clearwater officials are not happy with terms of a downtown land swap with Scientology.
But the fate of dozens of properties sitting vacant depend on the swap happening as Miscavige is using them "as a source of leverage," the former city manager said.
