The surprising news this morning is that Pope Benedict XVI is resigning at the end of the month, the first pope to walk away from […]
Add this to the list of amazing things actor Tom Cruise can do with his Scientology superpowers: he can revive the dead!
We’d heard about this 1972 lecture by Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard — it’s one of the more notorious ones and has been referred to numerous times both before and since the Internet came […]
In 1990, author Jon Atack published what is still one of the very best books on L. Ron Hubbard and Scientology, A Piece of Blue Sky. Atack now has a new edition of the book out, and it reminded us what an encyclopedic resource he is. So we had an idea. In the world of […]

For now, the niece of Scientology leader David Miscavige is scheduled to make an appearance on The View today on ABC at 11 am Eastern. We’d like to hear […]
SEE OUR UPDATE AT THE BOTTOM OF THE PAGE
Our readers knew that Scientology ad was coming during last night’s Super Bowl, but judging from the reaction at Twitter, most people were shocked when it showed up right after the first half.
