Scientology 2009...Year Of Epic Fail - Page 10
On to OCTOBER....
A scary month. Especially for Scientology!
Another brave knight appears. Martin Bashir.
On Oct 22nd and 23rd, ABC Nightline's, Martin Bashir interviewed Scientology spokesman Tommy Davis.
Martin Bashir
Davis ended up walking off the set in the middle of the interview after having a hissy fit. Once again he claims he was insulted by the questioning. Most "churches" will tell you anything you want to know, and be more than willing to talk about it. Nope not Scientology. Not without paying for it.

Onward....
All charges that Scientology filed against protester "Anon Orange" for "trespassing" at Golden Era Productions, aka Gold Base last Oct 2008, were dropped.
Anon Orange continues to counter sue with a Civil case against the cult for a myriad of charges stemming from his brutal arrest in 2008, which includes assault and battery, wrongful arrest, excessive force, emotional distress, several Ca. code violations and the list goes on. A jury trial was requested. Click here to watch the brutal attack of Anon Orange by Scientology guards at Gold Base in 2008. During this video, you can hear the Gold Base LOUD "organ tone" in the video,
which Scientology used whenever protesters showed up. Talk about super creepy!
The guards used excessive force against anon Orange and pushed his face in the dirt. Keep in mind the guards did not use legal procedures and are not allowed to legally attack or hand cuff someone in this manner, yet they were never charged with anything. WHY?
It will be interesting to see the outcome of this case.
And so on......
Scientology was convicted of fraud in France! Viva la France!
They were convicted of fraud and dispensing vitamins without a license.To read a rundown of the ruling, click here.
Then a major Scientology celebrity leaves the cult.
Crash director. Paul Haggis left Scientology in a public letter written to "foot bullet boy" and Scientology spokesman, Tommy Davis. It was posted on former cult member, Marty Rathbun's website. Marty is still practicing Scientology as an independent. There are several different groups with various names that do this. One is called the Freezone. These are people who left the "church", but still practice Scientology, but are free from the "church".
Then another important person leaves Scientology. He was an OTVIII (level 8 on the Scientology's Bridge to Total Freedom) public Scientologist, Geir Isene. He also left very publicly and has spoken out on Rathbun's site.
Just so you understand..... there are different types of Scientologists. There are staff members, Sea Org members, and public members. Publics are much more free than the staff and Sea Org members. They are not subjected to the same abuses. Although they can be harassed and hounded to donate more money and mortgage their homes. Scientology lingo for this is called being "regged". Whether it is to take more courses, buy more tapes and books, or do more auditing sessions. Scientology squeezes their members hard, especially at IAS (International Association of Scientologists) events.
