In a statement written to be shared after he died, Rinder says his biggest regret is not “ending the abuses of Scientology.”

    Agreed, fuck cancer.

    And I would not be even a little surprised if the CoS found a way to give him that cancer. Secretly irradiating him or something. Those fuckers are nuts.

      He spent his early years stripping and reapplying paint to LRH’s ship (I think Apollo) and scientologists love smoking because they actually believe it won’t affect them negatively if they’re progressing through their training.

      He also spent a lot of time in the hole and exposed to awful living conditions, much worse than the average scientologist which is already pretty horrendous.

      It would make sense.
