Man up, Cruise and face the issues. You have promoted this cult for 30 years and yet now you are hiding from the press?

I think it sad that a cult like this is being allowed to abuse children, an as a new outlet you are turning a blind eye. This makes ABC just a colpible as the cult itself.

Why do you think ABC News yanked the broadcast of their investigation?

The cultists probably threatened a lawsuit

Possibly, or something else, have you read up on the history of the Office of Special Affairs and List of Guardian's Office operations ?

I imagine, like any other network, there are scientologists that are employed by ABC, ABC NEWS, and ABC Entertainment divisions. There are former scientologists at other networks, who are threatened by scientologist co-workers on the job, sometimes their appearances are drastically cut--such as the actor on young and restless.

I just wonder what ABC is afraid of? Maureen Orth is a seasoned reporter, I doubt she would sensationalize any thing.

Money. That's why people do things. Scientology is used to manipulate the morality of people for profit just like all religions. Is their stupid made up story any dumber than the made up lie about some magical bully in space that says "believe in me or you will be tortured forever or killed"? Is this what a being representing good does? No. this is what evil beings do. And evil people use these self contradicting teachings of cults to manipulate their members into what is most profitable regardless of morality.

Flyi9ng Spaghettie Monsta

Yes, the Flying Spaghetti Monster is a fascinating topic, perhaps equally intriguing is the invisible Pink Unicorn; it's really neat to substitute one of those two terms in for your various preferred deity(s) into everyday conversation and see what happens.

Both their names are terribly long. It is so hard to insert them into the "Lord's Prayer" without people taking notice.
