“King of Queens” star Leah Remini is making a dramatic break from the Church of Scientology, a source said, after being subjected to years of “interrogations” and “thought modification” for questioning leader David Miscavige’s rule.
The source tells us Remini is quitting because of policies that don’t allow parishioners to question Miscavige’s management or the reported abuse of members of its Sea Org religious order — and for forcing followers to “disconnect” from family members branded as “suppressive persons” if they choose to leave the church.
“It all began when Leah questioned the validity of excommunication of people,” a source said of her decision. “She is stepping back from a regime she thinks is corrupt. She thinks no religion should tear apart a family or abuse someone under the umbrella of ‘religion.’ ”
Former Sea Org member Mike Rinder blogged this week that at Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes’ 2006 wedding, Remini innocently asked where Miscavige’s wife, Shelly, was. Former Scientology Celebrity Centre head Tommy Davis scolded her, “You don’t have the [bleeping] rank to ask about Shelly.” Mrs. Miscavige reportedly hasn’t been seen in public since 2007.
As a result, Remini “was put through interrogations and blacklisted within the church that she donated millions to and that her family has spent their lives in. She was put through ‘thought modification’ for five years,” our source said.
The source added that church friends Remini had for “25 to 30 years wrote internal reports” about her that “caused an investigation on her family.”

LOL!
There’s no such thing as a “parishoner” in Scientology, just as there were no parishoners in PT Barnum’s tents.
Ole South Park creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker was right it was whack out religion LOL!
Tell the leader DUDE chill out she try be polite LOL!
What is your first language? You have not been taught anything about English and I am sorry for the disservice.
Yeah, I was pretty proud of that.
I’ve been in malls or whereever and seen their booths there.
I’ll probably study up a bit and pull the prank again.
how long does it take to see the scam?
Shelly is a prisoner on that ship probably
I am not sure I understand. For them to catch on? I don’t think they ever did.
Or study up on the fake test? About 20 minutes.
Everything you need is now online, so you don’t need access to the MIT list serv like we used back in the horse-and-buggy days.
To give away my age, we invented a game called “Zork” and played it on massive mainframes.
Please post the results!
this actress sounds clueless
The one time when I allowed them to lure me off the street and follow them to the office, when I knew little or nothing about, a long time ago, as you can imagine, I was a little astounded seeing their primitive “meter” or whatever they called it, and two emptied metal cans connected to it on the other side of a foot high wooden barrier where their expert sat. I laughed in their faces and refused to sit down and take the test (”auditing”?), until they would tell me the original source of the cans. Were the cans from a fruit salad? Kidney beans? They were very patient and didn’t throw me out, and I left after running out of jokes. You gotta know when to fold them!
I remember Zork. I used to dialup Harris Corp. down here in Florida and play Zork on their PDP-10 over a 300-baud acoustically coupled modem.
The sophistication of Zork's English parser was one of the mind-blowing things that inspired me to pursue a career in Computer Science.
You invented Zork? I grew up playing Infocom’s version on my C64 when I was a kid. And I have an authentic Zorkmid I got on eBay in the ‘90s, which I think has turned out to be a better investment than gold.
Are you one of these 4 creators or some other contributor not mentioned here?

Thank you. And please post an after-action report if you decide to troll the Scientologists again.
She is so sued.
“You invented Zork?”
No,no, no. Nothing so grand.
I was one of the many MIT students who expanded on “Collosal Cave” (or whatever it was). I put in the map of a chunk of the “Infinite Corridor” (a hallway that ran through several buildings at MIT) into it.
That game did, indeed, become Zork.
But I wasn’t one of the main people, by any sort of long shot.
(I was/am an aeronautical engineer, not a computer guy.)
Go for it LOL!
