A wag might point out that Scientologists complaining about unfair treatment and yelping about Bigotry and Religious Biais falls into ‘Dog Bites Man’ territory in a big way.

oh here we go. good.

hey, how you doin’ MGM? You okay?

I can’t with reading any of these legal docs/briefs. Most of them bearing bad news and make my eyes glaze over. Gah! I’m heading out.

“One after another they resisted his suggestion that the movement seemed to interfere in people’s private lives and was incapable of letting members go when they wanted to leave.

“He quizzed several former members of Scientology’s Office of Special Affairs (OSA) as to what its real role was. But they repeatedly denied his suggestion that it operated as a kind of security service for the Church.”

– Jonny Jacobsen

I just hope that in the future somehow, a former OSA Int staffer, say a couple of the more literate members, like Lynn Farney and maybe Kathy O’Gorman, get together and write a history of the Office of Special Affairs, and put to rest exactly the long trail of deeds this subunit of Scientology has done, showing just how truly it is some kind of intelligence “security service” of the “church.”

Gosh I wish Lynn Farney would defect and so would Kathy O’Gorman, as unlikely as that always seems to expect some of their longest term members to jump ship and tell all.

Heart-shaped? Cumin? Did someone say waffles?

Note for the non-waffle centric: Heart-shaped waffles are a Norwegian specialty, so much a part of Tuesday lunch that they even serve them in prison (with sweet whey cheese). Cumin waffles are well-known to Evernote users as a placeholder item.

I’m glad you’re there for hugs Betty
