In a reality TV landscape filled with controversy and sensationalism, Jill Duggar stands out as a figure with the potential to become a voice of reason and bring awareness to the cult she escaped from. Her journey out of the cult offers hope for others who have faced a similar situation, and with her platform, she has the potential to shed light on the inner workings of the cult and ultimately bring about positive change. However, the decision to speak out is not an easy one, as it would require Jill to confront painful memories and endure potential backlash. In this podcast, we will explore the controversies surrounding the Duggar family, the potential media projects they may be involved in, and the impact of Jill using her experience for the greater good. Let's delve into the complexities of Jill Duggar's story and the potential power of her voice.Jill Duggar, a former member of the Duggar family, has the potential to become a voice of reason and bring awareness to the cult she escaped from. Just like Ron Miscavige, who escaped Scientology and became an outspoken critic, or Megan Phelps, who grew up in the Westboro Baptist Church and now stands against hate groups, Jill has an opportunity to make a significant impact.----------Listen to Aaron on his podcast, WSTR: Galactic Public AccessConnect with Doug Levinson on his Twitch Channel----------Support The Cinedicate on PatreonConnect with The Cinedicate on these social platforms!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/cinedicate/Twitter: https://twitter.com/cinedicate/Discord: https://www.cinedicate.com/discord Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

Han är scientologiledaren som beskrivs som paranoid, lynnig och maktgalen. På senare år har tidigare medlemmar stämt honom och organisationen, men Miscavige går inte att nå. I snart fyra decennier har David Miscavige varit i praktiken den högste ledaren för Scientologikyrkan. Avhoppare beskriver organisationen som en sekt och Miscavige som en hårdför ledare som styr med järnhand.Han har blivit allt mindre synlig i det offentliga och när det amerikanska rättsväsendet försökt delge honom stämningar om människohandel har han inte kunnat nås.Hans fru, Shelly Miscavige, har inte heller synts till i offentligheten på länge och tidigare medlemmar anklagar Miscavige för att ligga bakom hennes försvinnande.Mike Rinder, som skrivit "A billion years", var under många år en av Scientologikyrkans högst uppsatta och jobbade sida vid sida med Miscavige. Här berättar han om sina upplevelser av Miscavige hårda ledarstil och scientologins baksidor.Miscavige är också nära vän med Tom Cruise och Scientologikyrkan har flera medlemmar bland kändisar i Hollywood. Journalisten Magnus Sundholm, som bott i Los Angeles i över 30 år och har podden "Livet i La la land" förklarar de nära banden mellan rörelsen och Hollywood, och beskriver vänskapen med Cruise.Avhopparen Dan Koon har också arbetat nära David Miscavige och skrivit boken "Ruthless" tillsammans med Davids pappa Ron Miscavige.

Ron Miscavige escaped from the Church of Scientology's international headquarters outside Hemet, California, on March 25, 2012. Shortly thereafter, his son and current Scientology leader David Miscavige allegedly hired private investigators to follow Ron and file reports each day about his activities: where he went, what he did, and who he spoke to. In early August 2013, after nearly a year and a half, the PIs slipped up and one was arrested, at which point they confessed the sordid details of what they had been hired to do. When the story was printed in the Los Angeles Times in April 2015 the country was aghast and shock waves spread internationally. Ron did not especially care for the publicity. His aim after leaving Scientology was simply to get on with his life, play his horn in Dixieland bands and sell Exer-Genies, an exercise device he had been using since the 1960s. The other thing he did not care for was the situation that his two daughters had cut off contact with him owing to the Church of Scientology's policy of “disconnection,” whereby church members are forced to cut all communication with anyone who they deem has been critical of the church. Ron's departure from Scientology two years earlier placed him in bad stead with the church, and his son David prevailed upon his two sisters to sever the connection with their father. Now, having been separated from his daughters as well as his grandchildren and great-grandchildren, Ron made the decision to stand up against the church's practice of tearing families apart and strike a blow to end the abuse. The result was his book Ruthless: Scientology, My Son David Miscavige and Me published by St. Martins Press.

Ron Miscavige is the father of David Miscavige who is the leader of the church of scientology. Ron and his family joined Scientology in 1970, and he worked for the Sea Org for almost 27 years. It's also worth mentioning Ron signed a Billion year contract with the church. This is really a tragic story of how a father became disconnected from his son, and then you throw in the whole scientology aspect of it and how the family originally got into this mess which eventually led to a broken bond between father and son. https://www.therealronmiscavige.com

If you've followed the articles, movies, and TV shows about the Church of Scientology recently, you're probably familiar with the name David Miscavige, the man who runs the Church. His father is Ron Miscavige, and he joined the church in 1970. David was 10 at the time. It wasn't until 2012 that Ron escaped. Since then, he's worked hard to undo some of the damage caused by the Church, including their policy of basically shunning those outside of it. His book, now out in paperback, is called Ruthless: Scientology, My Son David Miscavige, and Me. I spoke with Ron about whether his son knows that the Church's beliefs aren't real, why Scientology is so appealing to some people, and how he managed to break out of the bubble.

Ron Miscavige is the father of the Church of Scientology leader David Miscavige and former member for over 40 years. His book Ruthless: Scientology, My Son David Miscavige, and Me is available now.

Ron Miscavige Sr. discusses parts of his 26 years spent as a Sea Org member at Scientology's Gold Base in Riverside County, California.

For forty years Ron Miscavige was a member of a religious cult known throughout the world as Scientology. He is also the father of Scientology's CEO—David Miscavige. Scientology was created by Science-Fiction Author, L. Ron Hubbard.   In 2012 Ron Miscavige and his wife, Beth, forever left behind their lives, and their families—potentially forever—in search of truth, and real freedom outside of the grasp of the Ruthless and ideological deceit of David Miscavige, and Scientology. Topics touched on include:   ► When did Ron Miscavige get his family involved in the world of Scientology ► What was Scientology like under L. Ron Hubbard and was there a dramatic change once David Miscavige took over ► Is Scientology a socialist like community ► What Level of Scientology did Ron reach prior to leaving ► Does Scientology have deep and dark secrets on their major celebrities like Tom Cruise ► What Did Elvis Presley have to say about Scientology after meeting with them ► Why is Ron speaking out about Scientology and his own son ► What is known about Scientology's belief in Xenu (the dictator of the "Galactic Confederacy" who 75 million years ago brought billions of his people to Earth (then known as "Teegeeack") in DC-8-like spacecraft, stacked them around volcanoes, and killed them with hydrogen bombs.) ► Plus much more! Levels of Scientology: OT I OT I comes after completing OT eligibility and OT preps (qv), this consists of walking about and counting people until one has a "win", and similar god-like procedures. EP (End Phenomena) is to extrovert a being, and bring about an awareness of himself in relation to others and the physical universe. OT II OT II consists of hundreds of boring "implants" written in Hubbard's hand like "to be or not to be", followed by "spotting the light" that accompanied the "implants." EP (End Phenomena; the final result of processing "therapy") is rehabilitation of intention and ability to project intention. OT III OT III, also called "The Wall of Fire". Deals with Incident 2, Xenu, the evil galactic overlord, and the H bombs on Hawaii 76 million years ago. Hubbard said that anyone who was exposed to this level casually would "freewheel" through it, become a chronic insomniac, then get sick and die. "Locating and auditing of body thetans on Incident I (first incident in MEST universe) and Incident II (incident which caused the degradation of these beings into body thetans and clusters as caused by Xenu approximately seventy-five million years ago). OT IV OT IV; the Operating Thetan drug rundown. New OT IV gets rid of the effects of taking drugs in past lifetimes for a few thousand dollars. You should really see this land in FLA; it is near Clearwater... "Mocking-up and unmocking implants from Clearing Course in order to prevent future implanting plus the handling and rehabilitation of past auditing. OT V OT V; get rid of those damn Body Thetans! EP (End Phenomena) is cause over life. Should be cause over your debt; you'll need it. New OT 5 starts what is call New Era Dianetics for Operating Thetans, NED for OTs or NOTS, reputed to be for removing BTs (Body Thetans; evil spirit infestations) that didn't respond on OT3. Physical universe familiarization, for only a few 'thou, was a part of old OT V. "A series of drills directed at the Pre-OT's handling of, and relationship to, MEST. Drills were to be done exterior. OT VI OT VI; what, more body thetans? New OT 6 teaches the sucker, I mean the Pre-OT, to do NOTs, New Era Dianetics for Operating Thetans, solo. OT VI is very expensive; it is easy to run up a $40,000 bill to get ready for the next step, OT VII. OT ability drills for a few 'thou more constituted old OT VI. OT VII OT VII; and still more? On OT VII one does NOTS, New Era Dianetics for Operating Thetans, solo. New OT VII is cheaper than New OT V, as only the six month C/S'ing and the final certainly check are paid for and the main work is left to the mark himself.
