Spare Religions the Vitriol of Politics—We Don’t Need It

Auditing is a sacred religious practice of Scientology. The goal of auditing is to restore beingness and ability. This is accomplished by: (1) helping individuals rid themselves of any spiritual disabilities; (2) increasing spiritual abilities.

Dear Mr. Scarry,

While I understand your analysis of the parallels between certain media and the democratic politicians and their stance vis a vis Prof. Christine Blasey Ford’s accusations against Supreme Court Nominee Brett Kavanaugh, why you threw in a baseless comment about Scientology religious counseling—auditing—is disconcerting.

Auditing is a sacred religious practice of Scientology. The goal of auditing is to restore beingness and ability. This is accomplished by: (1) helping individuals rid themselves of any spiritual disabilities; (2) increasing spiritual abilities.

The above has nothing to do with politics.

Please restrain from speaking ill about any religion—mine or any other. Disparagement of them benefits no one.

For actual information on the Scientology religion is please go to Scientology.tv.

Sincerely,

Edward Parkin
