Great actress and I’ve enjoyed her Scientology series. Not many people are as brave as she has been regarding that subject. She’s a pit bull, for sure. GO, Leah!
The fact that this story is in the Hollywood Reporter says something about Scientology’s waning power. 10 years ago, that never would have happened.
I admire what she is doing, and support her efforts to shed sunlight on Scientology.
That being said....giving the Federal Government broader powers to investigate churches and religious organizations?
umm........no.
She’s the c_nt who called Charleton Heston a “Nazi”.
Hope her Scientology was a particular hell.
IOW - how to turn a science fiction book into a religion/bible.
The real damage to Scientology was done by Anonymous collective hackers. They stole all the secrets and put them out on the web. No place to hide anymore.
They are nuts, but it was really dumb of David Miscavige to pick a fight with them.
Brave woman. I also respect Kevin James for bringing her into his new series. I bet there was some push back on that decision.
Scientology is anti-gay.
Otherwise it would be business as it had been for 50 years in today’s Hollywood.
ant particular reason she called him a nazi?
[[Scientology is anti-gay.]]
I dunno- they have Tom Cruise there
umm........no.
I would hardly call Scientology a religious organization, no matter what they claim, just a bunch of nutballs. And who said anything about giving the government broader powers. Sounds to me there is evidence of wide spread child abuse. What more power would they need?
Good for Leah. Brave woman. I will have to watch the series now. Forgot how hot she was too....

Scientology supported Proposition 8 in California and that was the beginning of the end for them in Hollywood.
Proposition 8 being a ban on Same Sex marriage...
Really? Wow!
Scientology and islam are totalitarian cults.
It was under him that they got their religious tax status.
IIRC, the story was that John Travolta said that the Scientology-backed movie, "Primary Colors", would go easy on Clinton, if he pushed for their "religion" status.
FWIW, about the only thing recent German governments have done that's a positive is to regard Scientology as a cult.
Yep.
"The church has a different take on Remini and her A&E series, citing a spike in anti-Scientology hate crimes, bomb threats and death threats since Aftermath began airing. That escalation has required "drastic increases in security in many of our churches," says Scientology spokeswoman Karin Pouw, who adds that since the show first aired, "there have been more than 500 incidents of vandalism, harassment and threats of violence against the church, its parishioners, staff and leadership."
Seems like I have heard of something like this before from another "religion".....which one was that? Hmmm....
Yeah, just like Muslims are anti-gay as they all bugger each other.
Yep and Mormonism isn’t too far behind.
