It's a terrible thing, being a Scientologist as I am, and watching the Anderson Cooper 360 segment today about Scientology and its abusive leader - David Miscavige. To see Sea Org members that I once worked with, in some cases even admired, blatantly and horrifically lying to the world on 360 about the veracity of the allegations against David Miscavige and his acts of violence and abuse.

It was one of the main reasons I personally left the Sea Org, that truth had become a matter of perception and was malleable and manipulated to serve the highest power in the Sea Org. The concept of TRUTH as we know it in Scientology was backseated and was a matter of luxury - replaced in fact by the use of lies and distortions to accomplish the ends of those handling it.

Tommy Davis, Norman Starkey, Jenny DeVoch and others are blatantly lying to the press to protect a Hitlarian dictator. Their minds have been molded, and their souls have been sold out to a man who needless to say does not deserve their support, but who nevertheless has such power over them through fear or otherwise, to force them to stand in front of a creditable journalist such as Anderson, and tell utter distorted and elaborated things to cover up for David Miscavige.  Tommy Davis, for those of you who were in the Sea Org for any period of time as I was, who so boldly stands in front of the cameras and claims that EVERY allegation about David Miscavige is a lie and that the accusers are themselves the true criminals in this picture, is of course discrediting himself to the core. Tommy Davis was NEVER at the International headquarters of Scientology during ANY of the times when David Miscavige was committing his acts. Tommy Davis can be credited on ONE count that he personally never saw these things being done, and on that ONE count he would be true to his word, but to stand up and tell the world that David Miscavige is not guilty of a single alleged crime and that everyone else accusing him of such are themselves debased or criminal or lying - well Tommy - you've taken the matter too far. You are defending a position that is hemmed in now from all sides; a man that cannot stand out in front of the world and tell the truth and who can ONLY attempt to discredit his accusers - word against word - in an attempt to villify them enough so that the general public will not believe them.

Here is the word on the block, and this is intended for any NON-Scientologist who may be reading this blog. The majority, by far, of everything you are being told about David Miscavige and the abuses, the violence and the inhumane treatment - IS TRUE. Those accusing him of these acts will of course have their own skeletons, we all do. Those of us that were in the Sea Organization and lived it out long enough, experienced and did enough to categorically classify some of us as having dirty hands. This of course is the ONLY power that the ecclesiastical structure of Scientology has against these allegations against their leader. But truth has a habit of unburrowing itself. You can plunge it to the depths of the ocean, bury it in graves with the men and women who knew of it, obscure it with all manner of distortions - but in the end - please realize that any fractional exaggeration or distortion on the alleged abuses, is so small as to be just that - fractional. Most of us bear the scars, one way or another, of the tyranny that this man, David Miscavige, has let loose on this very good subject called Scientology. 

History repeats itself here in Scientology and history says that no matter how many lies David Miscavige and his PR team pile on top of what Anderson Cooper is exposing, the truth will eventually win. It has to or humanity has no chance against tyranny - and that's just not going to happen!
