Happy Holidays

December 25, 2021 By Mike Rinder 17 Comments

 

To everyone who comes here, and by doing so, supports ending the abuses of scientology — have a very Merry Christmas.

Whether you are a Christian or not, this is a time of good cheer and good wishes. Revel in them. Enjoy the friends and family you do have, even if some are not present due to cult influence.

    Happy Holidays, merry Belated Christmas and a Happy New Year to you and your Family! Thank you for the education on scientology the last 6 years! You and many of the ex Scientology community have opened many of us (who were never in the cult or other cults) eyes to the tragic abuses. I will never look at the world around me as a parent, wife or as a human the same again. Thank You and to everyone else in your group of wonderful people for changing my mindset from that’s not my problem to what can I do to help! Please know you are changing the world for the better and you have earned a lot of respect from people you don’t even know! Please continue your awesome work!
    Good Luck and Thank You,
    Kelli

      Absolutely sir, and I hereby second, or third, or more likely 10 thousand times approve and forward your good wishes for Mike and his family to have a fantastic Christmas. As everyone knows; even that cockroach Miscaviage knows, above all others he has surely earned it.
      And I can only hope, that by the time I die, and die I shall; that the bullshit on his (Mike’s) lines will be no more.

    Mike & Leah & your families, wishing you excellent health & even more happiness in the coming year.

    Take GREAT JOY in knowing what a HUGE Pain In The Ass & a thorn in his side to David M “you guys” are. He must pace the floors at night thinking how he will never have a moment’s peace or contentment with ALL of you constantly spreading “the word”……………..It makes me smile…. A LOT!

    Merry Christmas to everyone. Thanks Mike for everything you have done. Really.

    And we hope that the coming year will not be a “variant” of the one that ends, but will bring good to everyone and that DM and scn finally clash with their karma.

    Thanks Mike When I joined in 1972, Hubbard should have announced his rejection of Jesus before I started. Merry Christmas to all.
