It's a HUGE box. Scientology has absolutely fascinated me for years (not in a good way) so I'm hoping at least some of them will be interesting. Have you been watching Leah's TV show?
I've been glued to her show and hope it gets an airing in the UK soon. Do you read Tony Ortega's Underground Bunker blog? He has great follow-ups on every episode.

Charles Manson dabbled in Scientology before announcing it was too crazy for him.

Both parties in domestic abuse accusations generally do tell different stories
Yes but in this case there was plenty of evidence that Stacy had fabricated her background story before appearing on X-Factor.



Not sure if you are joking!

Do you not watch Tom Cruise, Juliette or John Travolta films either?
Your question was to Veri, but I don't buy anything produced by Scientology celebrities because I know exactly what sort of organisation they are supporting. Juliette Lewis has left the 'Church'.

I tend to watch or listen to artists because they entertain me and I enjoy their work, their personal lives are their own. It was the same when I was young and listened to the Osmonds

I wouldn't know if the people I was watching or listening to were Mormons, Scientologists, Church of England, friends of David Icke or worshippers of the pod people

If they make a song I like I listen to it, if they are in a film I want to see, I see it. We are all different though, but I wouldn't deprive myself of listening to Billy Joel if he suddenly turned to a religion of any kind or of watching Meryl Streep if I found out she was a satanist

ETA: At the end of the day, as Stacey said last night on LF I think, she's there to make money to enable her to be a mother to her kids.

We do not protest against a religion or beliefs, we protest the abuses. We protest against children being used as forced labour, sexual abuse being covered up, women being forced to have abortions, people dying in horrific ways because of quack medical techniques, families being torn apart because of disconnection policies and people being stalked, harassed, threatened and intimidated because they dared to openly criticise this so-called Church.

I see a poster advertising Stacy doing a free concert at the Fort Harrison Hotel and think of Lisa McPherson who was held in room 174 until she died of dehydration and how the autopsy photographs show she was eaten by insects while she was still alive in there.

As for Stacy's standard story that she's a struggling single parent, it was all debunked when she appeared on X-Factor. Her last ex-husband is a wealthy dentist and poor people don't belong to the Church of Scientology where every single course has to be paid in advance and auditing costs 800 dollars an hour.

Hm, i'm the opposite. I'm strangely fascinated, I just wish we had live feed because C5 will edit it out for sex talk or acting up to the cameras.
Being fascinated by a cult is not a very good idea, imo.

I am not joking.

Cruise & Co are playing a part which sufficiently submerges their scientology (except in that Travolta film based on L Ron's SF, which I did avoid).

That's a good point. Thinking back, I haven't watched a Cruise film since ... it's so long ago I can't remember; and the last Travolta I saw was probably Jackie Brown which was like 1997.

Why did you have to go and drag them into it?

...Some of my best friends are pod-worshippers.

Stacy accused her first husband of domestic abuse but he told a very different story.

Interesting. I really wish Perez was in the house now!

I think you need to look up the meaning of the word.

Has Stacy mentioned she's a Scientologist or that she also has links to the Nation of Islam? (the two cults are very close these days).

Stacy's well-known to us cult-watchers.
Does she know anything about these snowdogs figurines who we suspect were kidnapped during the Snowdog trail in Tyne and Wear? The Scientologist office in Sunderland got into trouble for trying to recruit school children going home a couple of years ago. Once I was coxed into the scientology office in Birmingham and I had to purchase their crappy book Dianetics so that I could escape. Then I couldn't get out and had to get someone to open the door

I know that it's not exactly the same thing but the ccreepy cryptogenics organisation in Vanilla Sky reminded me of a new age cult with similar propaganda as Scientology. Eyes Wide Shut also alluded to a Sex cult, but they seemed more similar to the freemasons.

Scientology are like those psycho cults who utilise suggestion techniques and hypnotism, so people end up with false memory syndrome of events that never happened. There are only a handful of films and Tv dramas about them, but some worth a mention include Forgotten Sins and Indictment. Sybol was about a woman who repressed a childhood of satanic abuse and was meant to have Multiple Personality Disorder. I think that not every doctor recognises MPD and link it to false memory syndrome.

The biggest problem for the Sunderland Scilons is the amount of money they spent buying a listed building to be their new Ideal Org. Everything was going well until a couple of lads from Anonymous checked into it and found a problem with the planning permission which they duly notified Gateshead Council of. It meant the building was unusable and it has been sitting empty ever since.

Scientology auditing and training routines are designed to place subjects in a hypnotic state and false memories are common since subjects are encouraged to reach back into past lives, often lived on other planets.

She said that Scientologists have helped millions of people throughout the world...does anyone know anybody helped by this cult...I mean proper help...not the join us we have all the answers kind? I've read a lot about it lately, out of curiosity, not interest in joining..as if! All they do as far as I ascertain is charge people a fortune to reveal their secrets...and buy up property by the mile.

Not fascinated by a cult, but by the people it attracts. From a psychological perspective.

Bring back live feed!

Tweets got deleted and Stacy has a history of purging her social media accounts, but it was documented at the time by Radar.

Since then, Leah Remini has become very outspoken about Scientology so she might comment if someone approached her for the story.
