Hello friends. It has been a long while since last I posted here, I felt I should say something since FOX11 chose to take the Fair and Balanced approach to reporting on the ongoing struggle to get COS taxed like the business it is. For more information you can check any source, all will tell a similar story whether you look at Wikipedia, or if you believe wikipedia is controlled by liberal BLEEP you can also look it up in conservapedia.
For those of you whose Christian toes I may have stepped on. let me take the opportunity to disabuse you of some lovely myths. For instance, the historic Jesus was not nearly the sainted figure has been made out to be. In addition to being a lover of young boys and men, he was given to uncontrollable bursts of temper and hatred that belied the general message of love, understanding and other typical Marcab PR. You have only to look at the history his teachings inspired to see where it all inevitably leads.
This is quoted from the OT8 document shown to courts, the document was procured from the residence of folks involved in Operation Snow White which was an older program of the COS to steal/destroy documents which would put LRH in a bad light. Excuse me I should clear up that these were documents in the hands of federal agencies (IRS, FBI etc).
Many will ask "well why haven't they had to pay taxes yet, I thought the IRS looked into them and decided they were a legit religion?". That is somewhat true. The IRS persued the issue for years but early in the Clinton administration Bill asked the IRS to drop it. Makes you wonder. Bribes? Campaign contributions? Blackmail?
At any rate, for the curious, all signs point to the company being very nervous. Their usual tactics of attacking critics through "any means necessary" don't work well since anonymous generally is very careful not to expose personal info. Sci members have tailed taxis, and in Atlanta two people were arrested by police (not read their rights btw) and apparently unmasked in front of COS goons so they could have their picture taken. We will prevail, with every protest numbers are added, new forces join the ever growing horde. Christians, ex-scientologists who want to end the nightmare for those trapped, and the usual fun loving pranksters who supposedly blow up yellow vans are all involved.
