Cece - Yes, really sad. 

Sad for Marty who, as we have seen, can be a very helpful and genuine human being. 

Sad also that &quot;little Hitler&quot; would take advantage of someone who isn&#039;t all there, mentally, and use that to his advantage.

Sad like how he left Heber in the engine room just long enough to turn his mind to mush. Horrible.

Funny how Scientology says they fight mental abuse but are guilty of the same and, possibly, worse crimes against human beings. Not so funny.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[In reply to &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.mikerindersblog.org/scientologys-response-to-episode-5/#comment-190968&quot;&gt;Harpoona Frittata&lt;/a&gt;.

For Mark and Harpoona Frittata - We all do have the right to feel the way we feel and say what we want to say. I respect your rights to do the same. We all have different experiences and degrees of pain that was caused by lies he told and things he and his gang did to people that were inexcusable. Scott Campbell comes to mind.

But there is an old expression about &#039;Throwing the baby out with the bath water&#039;.  

You can hate and revile him for his heinous crimes. That&#039;s your right. IMO, there are still differences and similarities and, just because &quot;Hubbard said it&quot; doesn&#039;t mean that it&#039;s inherently evil. Some people did get benefit from some of what he wrote or brought forward from earlier writers and they might say it more if it weren&#039;t for certain people coming in to try to beat the shite out of them for saying so. Who died and made you two the new thought police, hmmm? :D

We can&#039;t carry the bad habits of the cherch out here to our new, clean ground. Speak what you will, but not everyone will agree. Such is life.
Respectfully, indie8million - celebrating the time when &quot;all 8 million&quot; (joke) Scientologists are out.]]></description>

Hey Dan, I think so too. It was a life-changer for me. So much so that, when I read it, in some dark hour, I walked around the house saying, &quot;I didn&#039;t do it. Wow. I didn&#039;t do it.&quot; Very therapeutic. I can&#039;t/won&#039;t disavow that help.

He didn&#039;t get EVERYTHING wrong. It&#039;s just too bad that, as time went on, for whatever reason, Ron succumbed to his own insanity. That&#039;s sad for that human being and was destructive for a lot of people. I still appreciate what he did get right.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Needless to say, this series is one of the boldest shows ever put on TV.  Leah and Mike, my hat is off to you and the courage it took for you to stand up to this utter evil organization.  People have no idea the lengths and expense the Church of Scientology will go to discredit and destroy their detractors.  They have no rules,  no boundaries, no morals. They will tell lies about you, attack you, harass your neighbors and co-workers. .  The whole Scientology scam is a lie shrouded with enough truth at  the entry level courses to draw the unwitting deeper and deeper into its web.   My family history with this cult goes back to 1954.  Eventually, all but 1 of us got out. Escaped. It took many years but one by one we realized the real goal is extracting as much money as possible from you, regardless of the harm it may cause you.  My sister remained loyal.  Within 1 year of her retirement, the Church talked her out of her entire retirement, over $350,000!  She was 71 years old. She went to Flag for the services she bought.  Because of her weight and bad knees, she couldn&#039;t get through the Purification Rundown.  After a couple months they sent her home without completing a single service she paid for.  She lived her remaining years subsisting on just her social security.  9  years later, when she died of cancer, we found she had hundreds of books and lecture tapes, I mean HUNDREDS,  in boxes that had never even been opened.  She was a Class VIII, OT IV and they fleeced her till the day she died.   

And THAT is Scientology.]]></description>
