I cannot think of any other "religion" that would constantly hide the fact that their higher-ups (priesthood/leadership/etc.) have died. I mean there's waiting a few days for family to process and prepare the announcements and then there is FOUR YEARS. What possible reason could even CoS have for needing to keep that quiet?

The "church", i.e. Cap'n McRavage, is just too busy saving the universe to to feel "low-tone" emotions such as sadness and grief, much less waste energy on acknowledging in ANY positive manner such a "reactive, out-ethics, down-stat, degraded, hole-dwelling being." He'll "return" in another meat-sack, to a scientology family, and "make amends", hopefully...Meanwhile...

The Teegeeackian Pimp has gotta keep on pimpin' and slappin' and makin' those ducats! Mind on his money, money on his mind. It's a truly spiritual quest that our feeble "banks"(reactive minds) can't comprehend. Fair game, fraud, human trafficking, protecting rapists and pedophiles, stalking and harassing enemies, aborting babies, posting hundreds of libel/slander web-sites, obstructing justice, and many other "vital actions" of the world's most ethical group will stop the dwindling spiral and save us all !

I was lucky to catch this live on Mitch’s YouTube. He had an interesting talk with Karen and Jeffrey, and that it took FOUR years for this to be public knowledge. It breaks my heart to think of so many people who still don’t know if their loved ones are okay.

Serious question: When David Miscavige dies, a) what should the leadership transition be and b) what leadership transition will actually probably happen?

Very good question

I knew Norman as a bandmate on the Apollo in 1974. I appreciate that Mitch Brisker created a memorial video segment for Norman. Scientology and Scientologists have no memory or appreciation for those who dedicated their lives to Hubbard’s folly. That alone is enough to tell you just how toxic and insane the organization is.

Scn’s corporate restructure in 1993 was necessary for the IRS agreement. That Starkey and others who have vanished held executive offices in that restructure and Scn has never named replacements is a violation of that agreement.
