					<description><![CDATA[&#160; The First Amendment to the Constitution is a vitally important document that is cause for great celebration and almost as much dispute. It enshrines a number of very important rights &#8212; freedom of religion, speech, the press, to peaceable assembly and petition the government. I believe the Bill of Rights was intended to protect [&#8230;]]]></description>

Scientology has been saying for years that this murder was a result of the young man [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The response to Leah”s lawsuit is scientology’s standard “a bigot is being mean to us poor victims” drivel. This one is especially unhinged, indicative of how worried David Miscavige is about this latest lawsuit naming him. The greater the purple prose and insanity of the inevitable ridiculous comparisons they make directly correlates to the level [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[This is perhaps the best &#8220;apology&#8221; ever issued to scientology, by an Irish satirical news organization Waterford Whispers News. I love the Irish, always have, but then spent some absolutely magical time in Dublin and my connection to the Irish became unbreakable. Their unique sense of humor and absolute &#8220;I don&#8217;t give a shit what [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Of course, following the Masterson conviction, scientology put out a statement about how they have been subjected to &#8220;prejudice&#8221; and &#8220;bigotry.&#8221; Here it is, in all it&#8217;s holier-than-thou sliminess, and their usual outright lies. The prosecution&#8217;s introduction of religion into this trial was an unprecedented violation of the First Amendment and affects the due process [&#8230;]]]></description>

Each of them are strong beyond comprehension to have survived the ordeal they were put through: first by Masterson, then by scientology, [&#8230;]]]></description>
