Food For Thought August 15, 2013, Mike Rinder, Something Can Be Done About It

---

This was sent to me for publication by a personal friend. I have not published anything quite like this on my blog before — it is a declaration by someone who doesn't give his name (though anyone who knows him knows who he is and a lot of others will be able to figure it out). I think it is good food for thought. And I especially like his views of what a real friend is. I too know Dave and Sindy Fagen. Dave's write up of his story is probably the calmest, most intelligent and devastating indictment of the current state of the "church of scientology" that has yet been published. Read it here — though it will take you a little time, its worth it.

I am going to use a code name to write this open letter to people who call themselves to whatever degree, "scientologists".

There is one reason for this and that is because I have tons of friends who are not scientologists and I don't want them to think that I am in any way connected with the mess that this subject has become. Nobody outside of this small group of people who would call themselves or maybe once called themselves "scientologists" gives a shit anyways.
