A Paris court convicted Scientology of fraud.
The court convicted the Church of Scientology’s French office, its library and six of its leaders of organized fraud. Investigators said the group pressured members into paying large sums of money for questionable financial gain and used “commercial harassment” against recruits.
The group was fined $600,000 and the library $300,000. Four of the leaders were given suspended sentences of between 10 months and two years. The other two were given fines of $1,480 and $2,960.
If only we could see the same thing happen here. But the masks are starting to fall. It could happen.
Just as Xenu predicted! It’s all falling into place!

I don’t know, I like Scientology just the way it is.
It’s like the signs that comedian talks about. It lets you know you don’t need to take that
person seriously.
Sorta like facial tattoos except less obvious.

anti-scientology protesters seem to show up a quite a few Tea Parties in the Chicago area. They wear Guy Fawkes masks and carry LOLCats signs.
They seem nice but are a strange bunch.
