"...I strongly feel that it is my civic duty to bring to the attention
of
the competent authorities of the United States and other concerned
countries
a matter of severe abuses and destructive activities by the "Church"
of
Scientology. I am at their disposition for more information on all of
this.

I was shocked at the use of top celebrities by Scientology to try and
give an impression of it which, per my own experiences, is a false
impression.
When I compare the ridiculous charges made by Scientology against the
German government with what I know Scientology (underlined) has been
doing itself I find a very strong similarity indeed. I have decided to
speak out
about this publicly.

I was, until earlier this year, one of Scientology's "celebrities". I
am a professional artist, having a 25 year career internationally with
over
99% sales. I was in Scientology for 23 years, did very many courses,
and
reached the highest available level of "New O.T.8." My knowledge of
the inner
workings of Scientology is extensive. I have information about the
many
instances of abuses of current and former Scientology members and of
lies
Scientology has generated about itself to give a wrong public
impression.

Among the many things I can relate, here are just a few from recent
times:

1) From 1991 to 1996 I was the subject of viscous machinations by
several "churches" of Scientology to destroy my name and repute, and
to involve me in expensive "justice handling" within the organization.
Apart from the horrific emotional stress over five years it cost me
well over
$120,000 to clear my name of accusations of things I had never done
in the first place! I have full documentation of all these multiple
abuses.

2) In June of 1996 I was held against my will in the Scientology,
Clearwater,
Florida facility and "ordered" to pay $7,400 before they would let me
out
of the room. I did not want to pay for what the two staff members
insisted
I must have, and what ensued was a verbal battle, emotional trauma
and
an attempt at financial extortion. After a time I managed to escape
the
physical detention, but two "Sea Org" members chased me right out into
the streets of Clearwater to try to recapture me. I did not pay the
money. This
incident is on file with the Clearwater Police Department.

3) In June of 1991 I was forced to pay, despite vehement
protestations, the
sum of $7,400 to Scientology on the "Freewinds" ship. The ruse used
on that Wednesday was that if I did not pay then they would withhold
my passport
from me until I did pay. They did so and I had to pay the money to get
it back.

4) At the end of 1996 I was subjected to [a] horrible kind of
"religious
deprogramming" in the Scientology "Fort Harrison Hotel". This was
done,
using an "E-meter", by a top official of the "Religious technology
Center" (RTC)
namely Mr. Marty Rathbun. I was interrogated for several hours on the
most
intimate personal religious beliefs (Christian) and his actions were
designed
clearly to get me to give up my Christian religious beliefs in
exchange
for RTC's "eligibility authorization" to read a confidential
publication
about a defective "OT level" I had previously completed (OT 7).
His utter contempt for my religious beliefs were all to apparent. He
felt
that all other religions apart from Scientology should be destroyed
and
probably would be in time by Scientology, using RTC's programs
of "eligibility's" as the means of forcing people to give up other
faiths.

I also had to undergo many hours of 'false data removal",,,to try to
"get me to realize" that the ONLY valid religion was Scientology.

It did not work.

My considered, personal opinion is that Scientology is definitely
NOT A RELIGION.

These are a few of the many things I can testify to.

I declare under penalty of perjury under California Laws that the
above
is true and correct per my own personal experiences."

RFW:

Michael Pattinson

Michael Pattinson is a former member of the Church of Scientology, now
an apostate. In collusion with his former attorney, Graham Berry (who
chose to have his state bar license suspended for nine months in
settlement of charges against him by the California State Bar)
Pattinson entered into civil litigation against the Church in an
apparent attempt to force the Church to pay him money. His capacity
for dishonesty and harassing conduct is demonstrated by his filing and
pursuing a frivolous claim.

Pattinson left the Church in 1996 after being interviewed regarding an
unchanging pattern of unethical behavior. His conduct during this
interview was so rancorous that he later offered a written apology.
Regardless, a year later, after having made the acquaintance of anti-
religious extremist, Graham Berry, declared a “vexatious litigant” by
a California court for repeatedly pursuing harassing litigation
against the Church, Pattinson filed a criminal complaint against the
Church which was dismissed by the State Attorney with the following
statement:

“The State Attorney’s office cannot prove the charges beyond a
reasonable doubt due to several reasons. First, the victim faxed an
apology to both defendants for his irrational behavior during the
meeting. The apology did not reference the false imprisonment or any
restraint whatsoever. Secondly, there are no independent eye
witnesses, physical evidence or admissions by the defendants to
support the victim’s testimony. Thirdly, the victim reported this
crime nearly one year after the event. The victim is clearly biased in
his current efforts to sue the Church of Scientology for $150,000.
Finally, the facts presented by the victim regarding the amount of
restraint used by the defendants is insufficient to secure a
conviction for false imprisonment.”

Following the dismissal of this criminal complaint, Pattinson and
Berry filed a civil suit in May of 1998, alleging, among other things,
that President Clinton, the U.S. Department of Treasury, the U.S.
Secretary of State, the U.S. Special Trade Representative, two IRS
Commissioners and the then Prime Minister of Russia, were part of some
international conspiracy to advance Scientology across the world.

This suit was either dismissed or voluntarily withdrawn for
“amendment” no less than six times. In fact, the filing and withdrawal
of this complaint was the subject of a sanctions order against Graham
Berry for frivolous and harassing litigation tactics.

When referring to Berry’s complaint, Judges stated:

“But let me say this to you, […] Mr. Berry, I really expect a
complaint that is - has a purpose to it that is not engaged in
something that goes out on the Internet which is a rambling tale of
irrelevancy. […] And if we get a complaint back that is like this
complaint I really am going to listen to sanctions, and consider the
efforts these defendants have put into the matter up until now and in
other courts in assessing the sanction award.” [U.S. District Judge
Snyder, September 28, 1998]

“With all due respect, Sir, I have to sadly state that if there is
such a thing on God’s green earth as a vexatious litigant you, Sir,
sadly, are it.” [Judge A. H. Williams, August 20, 1999]

Pattinson eventually re-filed his suit in State Court where it, too,
was dismissed, with costs awarded to the Church.

In the course of pursuing this vexatious litigation against the
Church, Michael Pattinson allied himself with other anti-religious
extremists chronicled on this site and joined in their acts of hatred
against Scientology and its parishioners. These acts include
participating in hate marches and posting hate messages on the
Internet, sometimes on behalf of his former attorney, Graham Berry.

Pattinson is a staunch supporter of convicted hate criminal Keith
Henson. When Henson was found guilty by a jury of his peers, Pattinson
alleged that the conviction of Keith Henson was due to “corrupt local
law enforcement officials,” slandering the District Attorney’s office
in postings on the Internet.

Pattinson was sued by a former colleague for refusing to pay back a
loan of $25,000, plus interest. On April 20, 1999, the court granted
summary judgment in favor of the plaintiff. Pattinson, rather than
honoring and paying back the loan, declared bankruptcy to avoid paying
a loan that was giving to him in good faith.

Pattinson’s unethical behavior continues today. He is currently being
sued for $25,000 for allegedly causing a car accident and injuring the
driver and passenger in the other car. The process server was unable
to effect personal service on Pattinson because the home address he
had given turned out to be false, while the “business address” he gave
is a mail drop.

My experience with the people portrayed on the RFW is pretty much the
same.

In other words, they are scum, and so are you.

If you don't want to believe the RFW, there are also other ways to get
facts. You can get them from the court house, the files.

Michael Pattinson's case was dismissed. So, stop smearing the name of
Marty Rathbun.
