					<description><![CDATA[&#160; After a lengthy investigation following a 2017 raid, Hungarian authorities issued indictments and levied $1.7 million assessment against scientology in Budapest for engaging in a conspiracy to avoid paying tax on income from the sale of books and services. We talk with Peter Bonyai, who has been instrumental in bringing about action against scientology [&#8230;]]]></description>

Though this one is from 2010, it is no different than what is produced today, and it is proof that scientologists are NOT allowed to report crimes to authorities. We explain this document and the terminology in our latest [&#8230;]]]></description>

This person didn&#8217;t ask for this to be published, so I have hidden personal identifying details in case it might be a problem in some way. &#160; I saw a question [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[&#160; A recent interview with Alex Gibney in Rolling Stone where he was asked the following question, jogged my memory. I had the pleasure of seeing Going Clear at its Sundance premiere, which was pretty wild. Is Scientology still on your case? And I’ve done a lot of reporting on Scientology as well, so what’s it like [&#8230;]]]></description>

I believe the ongoing public policy violations alone should be the immediate end of scientology&#8217;s tax exempt status. Taylor points out how &#8220;Public Policy&#8221; has been narrowly interpreted to mean discrimination, but [&#8230;]]]></description>

The idea that you can be a scientologist and a Christian is a lie, yet scientologists claim this all the time to try to appear &#8220;normal&#8221; or &#8220;non-threatening.&#8221; You can see from the official IRS publication above listing the criteria the IRS uses to determine [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[One of our regular commenters, ISNOINews, pointed out this new decision reported in the UK. Since being denied charitable status in the UK in the early 2000&#8217;s, scientology has been attempting all sorts of end-runs to circumvent the decision of the Charity Commission. They once again fell falling short as the British regulatory agencies don&#8217;t [&#8230;]]]></description>
