When we spoke to Phil Jones last night, he had just arrived back home in Canada after his flight from Los Angeles, and he sounded tired and a bit bewildered by what he’d been through over the last few days.

They were idyllic times. Continue reading For an outfit that sells immortality, Scientology really sucks about death
