This looks like it may shed some light on the more questionable aspects of Scientology.

This kind of posting is exactly what is leading to more and more hate and separation into our little camps. All the Jews are fill in the blank. All the Catholics are fill in the blank. All Evangelicals are fill in the blank. All white men are fill in the blank

Monitors... take this down please.

Read what this case is about. And no where did I imply that all whatever is whatever.

These women not only faced the living hell of being raped, having their rapes covered up by the very organization that promised to protect them, but they have also faced ruthless and criminal harassment by Scientology and its agents since they came forward to law enforcement.

I will always remind the public that in Scientology if you report another Scientologist to law enforcement, you are committing a high crime. The consequences of such a high crime are devastating: you will lose everything you’ve ever known, from your family to your friends to your job.

The women who survived Danny’s predation fought tirelessly for justice. Their tenacity, strength, and courage have given hope to all victims of Scientology that justice is possible. For that, we will forever be grateful."

Interesting statement. A niece of the leader, David Miscavige, wrote a revealing book about Scientology a few years ago. The celebrity members get special treatment. Jenna Miscavige Hill - Wikipedia
