The pressure is mounting on #scientology. The day is coming where they will be held accountable for their reckless disregard for human rights and the law.

Another carefully researched obliteration of #scientologylies about @LeahRemini — L. Ron Hubbard dictates their insane behavior so they have no choice. Details of why they continue such easily disproven bs is in article on my blog https://www.mikerindersblog.org/28-why-do-scientologists-lie/
