How The Church of Scientology Has Used, AND Still Uses The American Legal System To Destroy Critics - Page 4
Now think of what a heinous precedent that would set, especially when dealing with cults. If this appeal was upheld, then cults could later point to this lawsuit and hide behind it. The FLDS in Texas tried that already, and other groups and individuals that wage lawfare on their opponents could easily argue that it’s a “religious practice†making lawfare far more prevalent in American courtrooms than ever before.
Best example of the worst example
Compared to Khalid bin Mahfouz, the Church of Scientology is a giant when it comes to lawfare. Bin Mahfouz only has power in the UK, but the Church of Scientology has established itself worldwide. Many critics of the Church of Scientology, including the internet activist group Anonymous, and the brave group of critics referred to as the Old Guard, as well as the growing mainstream media, fell it is vital that the Church of Scientology be made an example of.
Perhaps steps such as reporting the lawyers representing the Scientology cult should be reported to local Bar associations every time they send ‘cease and desist’ letters to people for exercising their free speech rights. A movement to involve the ACLU, as well as, Congressmen and Senators might create enough noise to make the Church of Scientology the subject of a Congressional hearing.
Something must be done to make the best example of the worst example of lawfare.
