Go Back
In order for the character of a human being to reveal truly exceptional qualities, we must have the good fortune to observe its action over a long period of years. If this action is devoid of all selfishness, if the idea that directs it is one of unqualified generosity, if it is absolutely certain that it has not sought recompense anywhere, and if moreover it has left visible marks on the world, then we are unquestionably dealing with an unforgettable character.
—Jean Giono, "L'homme qui plantait des arbres"

City of Clearwater Commission Hearing: The Church of Scientology

1982

Source: Arnaldo Lerma provided me with a hardcopy of the hearing. Transcripts of the hearing have been available on the internet for a while at lermanet.com. I decided to OCR-proof the transcripts using copies of the original documents, and to reformat for easier reading, as I consider the Clearwater hearing a major source of first-hand accounts that expose the real face of Scientology.
