Leah Remini Scientology Special & New Show

[Rev. Rye]

Scientologists maintain being exposed to too much of their trade secrets, oops, religious dogma, all at once can cause pneumonia.

I don't know if Prevnar is effective on that . . . .

That said, apparently, at least according to Going Clear, Hana Eltingham developed suicidal thoughts after going through OT3, apparently because the Xenu story contradicted so much of the CoS Dogma she had learned about so far (especially the revelation that going clear meant a lot less than she had thought), and at one point, the only thing stopping her from jumping off the roof of one of Scientology's buildings was the bad PR it would give.

Also, I've started reading Troublemaker. While Leah Remini's personality does not come across as particularly likable, it goes without saying that the story of her relationship with Scientology is easily the most interesting part of the book, admittedly largely due to the "ordinary Scientologist" (as opposed to defecting higher-up who couldn't stand being around Davey-boy) perspective of the narrative is new to me, at least, except for the stories of guys like Jason Beghe and Paul Haggis.

That said, it's kind of disappointing to me that she seems to devote all of two paragraphs (and two photographs of her with Mark-Paul Gosselaar on the photo pages) to her (admittedly brief) stint on Saved By the Bell.
