Glosslip Exclusive: Actor Jason Beghe To Join NYC Anonymous On May 29 To Protest Church Of Scientology
On Thursday, May 29, popular actor and now enemy No. 1 of the Church of Scientology, will stand among the New York City Anonymous to protest the local Scientology Orgs as part of an ongoing movement to expose the abuses and criminal activity of organized Scientology.
Jason made headlines a few weeks back when a video was released with Beghe discussing the fraudulent claims of the Church, and how the organization created by pulp science fiction writer L. Ron Hubbard in the 50’s, has systematically created a criminal scheme to bilk its adherents of large sums of money.
Jason, best known for silver screen roles in such films as Thelma and Louise, Monkey Shines, G.I. Jane and recurring roles on TV hits such as “Chicago Hope,” “Melrose Place,” “Picket Fences” and “American Dreams,” has taken the internet by storm as he continues to speak out against his former faith.
Here’s more from the press release about Jason’s visit to the NYC protests tomorrow:
New York City, NY - Celebrity and former Scientologist Jason Beghe will be in New York City to assist locals of New York City with ANONYMOUS in protesting the abuses and fraud of Scientology. The event will begin on/around 5pm (EST) at Bryant Park New York City near the memorial Fountain in the park. From there, the event will travel up Broadway to Times Square and to the Organization of Scientology in New York City located at: 227 West 46th Street
About Jason Beghe - Jason Beghe is a noted film and television actor having appeared in roles on Chicago Hope, Melrose Place and various movies such as G.I Jane. Beghe was a Scientologist for many years and achieved the level of Operating Thetan Five (”OT-5″) in the church alongside an auditor level of class five (”C-V”).
About the Church of Scientology of New York - The Church of Scientology was founded by Science Fiction writer and novelist Lafayette Ronald Hubbard (”L. Ron Hubbard”) and has a presence in nearly every state in the United States of America and almost every nation in the European Union. The tenants of Scientology are based solely around the writings/lectures of L. Ron Hubbard.
I had the pleasure recently of meeting Jason and his lovely family, wife Angie and sons Bix and Bear. Jason is best described as candid, honest and passionate. Just as he firmly committed himself to becoming the best Scientologist he could be for ten years, Jason is now as equally committed to saving others from the fate of fraud and false claims perpetrated by the Church against its members and the public.
Jason told me he has every intention of seeing this through and is resolute is bringing truth and openness to this secretive group many consider a sinister cult. Jason, as the most public and well-known defector of Scientology, which has an active celebrity recruiting policy, has placed himself, his family and his career in harm’s way against a organization which has blood on its hands and a reputation for silencing its critics through financial ruin or illegal measures.
Jason really is a hero for standing up to the wrongs of the Church, and while I can’t speak for Anonymous, I can speak as a critic of Scientology’s policies. So with that in mind, thank you for standing with us Jason and thanks to the entire Beghe family for your support.

I love the bottom YouTube Video Clip.
And people compare Scientology to religions.
Geeze.

Comeon now, doesn’t the Arch Bishop of the Catholic Church run amok in New York City, picking fist-fights and calling people “pussys”?
Why should we apply different standards in judging the Church of Scientology than we apply to the Catholic church?
Terreyo, do you feel me here?

There is now a Jason Beghe YouTube channel.
Is it really him? Do you know?

I’m dying to go to this protest… a brief must be completed, and I work across town. Trying to work it out.

There is a law of Nature or law of God called “Physiological Reactions†that is the true secret behind Scientology’s Dianectic study technology.
The LRH discovered that when you passed a misunderstood word—you manifested many reactions of various types: Yawning, sleepiness, not there feeling, dizziness, blurry eyes, nervousness and dozens more.
Being the liar that he was, he claimed that Dianetics was “‘his†invention and not a law of God; he hid the fact that it is our human inheritance since time began.
Granted that his power of obnosis was the best in the world, his crime against humanity was to make a “religion†based upon the falsehood, that it was his invention or creation and not a law of God.
There is an EBOOK that explains and reveals the dark and evil secrets of this cult and a few others.
It teaches a person the ways of natural self-healing and also exposes this cult for the thieves that they are.

There you will learn to self-heal and learn how to expose the crimes of Scientology.

Oh how I wish I could attend this protest. Sadly I have a class I must attend. However, I am there in spirit and I expect to see some videos of the event tonight when I return home.
I am very happy to see that Jason is seeing this through and not staying in the shadows since his damning interview.

Jason told me that he now has a YouTube channel because someone created it for him. So it’s not him behind it, at least not yet, but he knows about it. Not sure if we’re talking about the same one, but still.

Good on him and on all who fight the good fight in exposing the myriad crimes of Co$.
