Mike Rinder Speaks Out - Scientology (part 2 of 2)

[IisHattrick]

After I left Guiana and said good bye to the Rv. Jim Jones. I joined the Unifacation Church and and got married in a really huge ceremony by Sun Myung Moon. But I think I found the light in Scientology.

[IisHattrick]

It was created by a beatnik broke science-fiction writer. Need I say more ?

[choice69able]

what i dont understand about this cult. if all they want to do is good. then why dont they do goog without all their universal knowledge which is bullshit. and why dont they leave people to live their lives how they want and stop hurting them and leaving the scared for life. this just prooves that the entire idea of scientology is wrong. and all similar things.

[ZachRose88]

Why aren't other religions considered "cults"? What evidence is there for the doctrines of Christianity over Scientology? The media is full of spineless cowards, it makes me sick.

[dayzeofclarity]

Is it Nick Xenophon or Nick XENU-phon, eh...EH? Hello...anyone?....(crickets..­..)



[Christopher711]

There's just too many people making these clams about scientology abuse for it to be total b .s.

[EpicDoucher]

Jee Whiz!! 

It's been a year and a half since the interview and that asshole Miscavige isn't in jail yet!!

What the Hell??

[generalzod4life]

Senator XENU-phon for Prime Minister!

[dayzeofclarity]

@generalzod4life

Damn, I didn't notice you already made the XENU-phon joke....

[309temporary]

Senator Xenophon ftw! Gives politicians a good name... Mike Rinder seems like a pretty decent guy -- he's at least forward about the bad things he did and not accusatory of people who ask him about it (unlike Marty Rathbun)

[Acharmye]

Desperate housewives of $cientology haha

[onefugowie]

were is 3 of 4  i hate this

[UnitedEuropa]

Thanks Australia for exposing the lies of scientology.

[000aysh]

I guess 30 yrs of brainwashing can't be cured so easily!

[TELEFOON87]

@000aysh Why would you expect it - it would ???

[000aysh]

@TELEFOON87 lol

[000aysh]

I can't believe he still believes in Scientology. I guess 30 yrs of vrainwAs

[nowgleaning]

(Rinder to Miscavige) "...stop misleading people (about what your doing) & let them get on with practicing $cientology so that it actually helps them." WTF!! I'm glad Rinder is out of the church & giving these interviews but he really needs to stop misleading people too. $cientology is total bullshit; it can't help anyone. He apparently worked with Hubbard back in the day - then he should know that Hubbard was an evil shit. He needs to stop pretending $cientology would b a good thing without DM.

[Allanlegacy43]

Of course these women are going to lie, there in a damn cult and are completely under control of Misavige, what a joke!

[bd189]

in america we need to ask why the patriot act isn't used against this cult/psychoterror group!

[LandingCraft1969]

What happened to Mary DeMoss?

[videonaj]

Today tonight is a joke, its so obvious the whole thing is just a stunt. This kind of journalism is joke. What a crock.

[jcosta136]

I don't understand why they didn't film it indoors so that dude couldn't follow them with camera?

[BookieMaalox]

the celebrity scientologists are totally different than the staff. tom cruise not only gets huge checks from hollywood but also slave labor from the staff and the seaorg. eventually, that homosexual actor and his miracle beard child will take over for davis and miscavige. and then invent OT IX.

[orange99z28]

you scientologists can come live here and give me your money lol

[orange99z28]

so so sad, what is the world coming to? i almost just wanna let it happen, unfortunately i can't just watch. the founder, hubbard, was a science FICTION author before starting the cult. anyone who knows that and continues their beliefs is just plain stoooopid. i don't think the c of s is around chicago, if they are they hide very well! i thought the jahovas witnesses were bad..

[tgoodfella]

i hope someday john travolta leaves the church and reveal the stuff that he knows with their unethical practices. I just hope, he wont let the fear of being blackmailed to discourage him, to do the right thing and go public about the CO$.

[MrRedFredSaid]

@tgoodfella - tom cruise and john travolta will never leave. The Scientologists really have the goods on both of them. In their "auditing" sessions, they talk about all of their personal matters. Including sexual matters.

[tgoodfella]

@MrRedFredSaid i know thats true, but i 'd hope someday when they get older and care less about what others think, they would do the right thing and come forth and put an end to this corruption and scandel.

[MrRedFredSaid]

@tgoodfella I agree with you.

[fmn2628]

One Scary cult

[SpartanPkr]

Miscavige? More like MISCARRIAGE! oooooooooh snap!!

[electrogeek77]

@SpartanPkr I personally prefer "Missed Cabbage".

[robotfreshpies]

@electrogeek77 I prefer "Manipulating prick"

[zencat999]

@morehate4uall Shelly Miscavige is probably dead at the hand of David Miscavige

[JMurph0315]

Help

[66kompis]

I have been asking that for some time now hs she been seen lately it seems like she droped out of the face of the earth...Maybe she had a nervouse breakdown and is locked somewhere;....It's funny that Mike still believes in the teaching of this cult....I guess that's what happens after 3 decades of brainwashing..

[bcn001]

@66kompis Well, that what happens when someone has not had time to properly deconstruct all the programming. I think it would have been better to first allow him time to receive counseling and understand that he has been in a mind control group and then interview him. The danger of walking out of a cult without receiving proper counseling is that the person might end up creating a cult of his own, as David Koresh did.

[Agonar81]

Seeing Rinder do this is like a dream. I still can't believe I'm watching this.

[Skodan]

How can they (scientoloy) film people without consentement? Isn't that harassment?

[james9689]

@Skodan

It would be for any normal regular person, apparently the law turns a blind eye when it comes to the mention of "scientology"

[LRonAnonymous]

Can ANY $cientologist please explain how that goomba Miscavige changed the second dynamic from sex and family to creativity? Sounds like the high crime of squirreling with Hubbards tech.

Also, Xenu says hi! He's rather upset that the abusive upper management of the cult of $cientology tries to hide incident II.

[receipt22]

@morehate4uall They should have asked Rinder that question !

[jdtrickster4]

@kungfumel75 - Oh it's you who doesn't know what Scientology is really about. You've bought into the "shore story." You're like the girl looking at the pretty flowers in a dangerous canyon, Hubbard talks about in one of his policies from the KSW series; either "Tech Degrades" or "Safeguarding Technology." You think it's about "A world without insanity, criminality, etc." You think it's about clearing the planet, ARC & what I like to call the "fluff." Look behind the veil; the social veneer, vaL.

[ghostofshawnlonsdale]

I have been away, nice to see that Rinder finally was interviewed even if it was not from the BBC....

Good job Brian Seymoar, lol, the Aussie equivalant of Nathan B (ABC News affilate) back in the States.

[MusicOfTheSystem]

nice work. i wish it would have been longer.

[dontlayeggs]

Scientology is not eve a religion, it's just a capitalist commercial brainwash, like all those self-help programs etc.

[tgoodfella]

go Austraillia get this shit investigated and find the truth of their terrible acts in the cult.

[eyewitness043]

Good one.

[dragoons9009]

kungfumel75 = vaLLarrr

[cultssuck]

@kungfumel75 I've never smoked crack, but I know it's bad. I never belonged to the Mafia, but I know it's bad too.

One doesn't have to go into an org to know that $cientology is a greedy, ruthless, human rights abusing scam posing as a "religion".

Pretty funny that Rinder, Rathbun and Scobee not only blew the cult, but are speaking out as well. Seems you guys just can't bully people into silence anymore. The internet kind of sucks for $cientology doesn't it?

[truvelocity]

Is there not one person here, that see's that recording senators and their comments about Scientology is dangerous?

[AlmightyCornhoolio]

interesting, nice work.. too bad, though that this could not have been extended a bit longer so as to include more straight forward questions and interview footage.

[cutes22]

Where is Miscavige. I haven't seen him in an interview for years where he was totally pwned by Ted Koppel. 

[Saradjah]

"let people get on with practicing scientology so that it actually helps them"? Has he really left the church, or is this all just another set-up to increase Scientology's popularity? I seriously wonder. Why on earth would someone at the top suddenly leave?

I don't trust him.

[Secundas]

@Saradjah You are correct to doubt his motivations. He has truly left the church, though he still believes in LRH and Scientology 100%. He is part of an independent movement of excommunicated Scientologists who blame David Miscavige for all the church's flaws. In a nutshell, they want to carry on LRH's cult nonsense under their leadership rather than Miscavige's.

[soph7133]

Funny how Miscavaige won't give anyone an interview regarding all these accusations.

[NarkAnon]

More embarrassing exposure and crushing humiliation for the unethical "church" of Scientology!

xenu-directory(.)net

[FreeTheRocks]

I wonder which Scientologist planted the rumor that one of the biggest google search personalities(Bieber) was joining the Cult Of Scientology JUST AS this story/report was about to be aired? Hmmm....

[Acharmye]

@FreeTheRocks Bieber would make a song against $cientology, Bieber seems like a humane person.

[deptsd]

at least Mike Rinder told the truth about one thing, that Scientology does help people, checkout the scientology youtube channel

[laserofjustice]

@deptsd $cientology helps people lose their freewill and rid themselves of any money, familly or sanity they may have had!

[cultssuck]

@deptsd No one wants to "check out" your silly cult's youtube channel. No one wants a "free" stress test. No one wants to buy Hubbard's books or do any of your useless courses. No wants to "find out more" about $cientology. No one wants to visit one of your empty orgs.

$cientology has a reputation Big Tobacco wouldn't envy.

The truth about $cientology's 60 years worth of lies, cons, scams and abuses is out, and there's no salvaging your shrinking cult now.

[mentalholocaust]

: / That interview was kinda disappointing. I thought he would give out deeper info.

[FreeTheRocks]

Mike and the rest of these guys need to "speak out" about the sheer ridiculousness of the whole concept of Scientology in general or they are nothing more than someone looking to cash in on the money brought into the cult in the way of selling books and courses. OT powers only exist inside the cult's money-grubbing pyramid scheme as a carrot dangling in front of gullible frightened rabbits. Come on Mike....tell the REAL truths about Scientology...EVERYTHING about it is a lie and a scam.

[laserofjustice]

@FreeTheRocks When the cult finally collapses entirely and there's no chance of Mike and Marty trying to create $cientology 2.0, then he may..

The funny thing is- not only is there no one with any OT powers, there's never been a "clear" with any of the benefits Hubbard promised- not one, in 50 years!

[Secundas]

Chris the camera man was rather candid; I doubt his services will be requested by Scientology again.

[11Jamie11]

Good job, TT! Keep at it! Every expose is one more hammer-blow to the wall of lies first erected by L. Ron Hubbard and then perpetuated by violent midget David Miscavige. Which one will be the one to finally crack the case wide open? Nobody knows, but it gets closer each time.

[ohbuddyiliketowatch]

@kungfumel75 everyone is watching - scientology is a brainwashing moneygrabbing cult -

[cultssuck]

@kungfumel75 "Serious thought"? You're a $cientologist, you don't give anything remotely critical of your organization "serious thought".

I find your "no one cares" comment amusing though. Obviously YOU care, you're posting here.

Sadly for $cientology and David Miscavige, you don't intimidate Brian Seymour in the least. Go ahead and send creepy cameras guys to follow him around, won't do any good. He'll keep reporting and your cult will keep shrinking and looking creepier than ever.

[coolvidsrule]

creepy fucking cult. if you want to get good press stop following people, duh.

[nekedemus]

I´ll bet you. Bryan Seymour has Scientologist´s creeping around in his garbage can, under his lawn and on his phone line. These people are insane to a degree that, trying to imaging what they are willing to do, makes no sense.

[Scientologee]

"Austrailia...FUCK YEAH!"

[blackwhimsy]

"Written responses by the church on our web site." Gee,Scientology's pr is in the fucken dark ages.What casual viewer is going to go to a website and read all that dead wood? They'll simply see Rinder on TT and say,"What a horrible cult.I'll stay away from them." If they had a fucken brain they'd get a decent pr person(not lame Tommy Davis) to respond ON TV.The fact that Miscavige NEVER appears in public looks VERY suspicious indeed.Do they get this fact? Nope.Scamology is in its death throws.

[cultssuck]

@blackwhimsy $cilon's response is always hilarious:

Look at all our pretty new buildings!

[CarterUSP]

Accusation of crime needs to be investigated. DM should be questioned.

[Socksee]

FREE Heber Jentzsch and Shelly Miscavige!!

[laserofjustice]

Miscavige is far too chicken to be interviewed on camera- he sends Tommy (I'm not lieing, honest) Davis to stutter his well rehearsed answers on camera.

Thousands have left the cult- and now many have the courage to speak out..except Miscavige, who's got too many things to hide.

[AnonOrange]

@morehate4uall Ask the San Bernardino sheriff. They've been asked three times but never responded and did not even bother filing a California Missing Persons report. They must do that after 30 days, if not immediately as some other officers told me.

[XenuSmurf]

@AnonOrange One thing you learn, by experience, with law enforcement.. document, document, document.. if the shit hits the fan and a calamity ensues under their watch, i.e., mass murder/suicide on a Scientology property, they'l claim they had no idea & no concerns or complaints were ever filed with them. Police & politicians throughout Southern California have proven they don't give a damn for the victims of Scientology.

[midguardz]

When is Miscavige being arrested?
