David Miscavige is the head of Scientology and Ron Miscavige Snr, his father, just published a new book called Ruthless about David and the Church. Of course, Scientology is ramping up every possible effort to derail the book’s success and smear Ron Miscavige. Here I talk about that effort and review the book itself.
Chris, I’m wondering what your thoughts are on the state of mind evident in the videos by scientologists that have been made to counter Ron Miscavige’s book. They all seem sincere in their praise of David Miscavige, who is variously described as gracious, supportive, kind, ethical, a genius, etc. Some of the folks doing the talking, like Norman Starkey, are reportedly victims of beatings, humiliation and “the hole.” What is going on here? Do these people truly believe what they are saying, or are they deliberately lying, or is something more complicated afoot? Thanks.
Erm… Seth MEYERS, Chris! MEYERS!
Otherwise, nice job!
It’s always something….LOL.
