About ten years ago I wrote an expose on Scientology&#8230; I interviewed quite a few people who quit the cult and feared for their lives. They told me that some members who &quot;disobeyed&quot; Scientology rules were punished and chained to pipes in a basement in their Florida headquarters. It was a great story&#8230;but my editor ultimately decided NOT to publish it because she feared retribution. Part of my story focused on Priscilla Presley and her &quot;conversion&quot; to Scientology.  John Travolta&#8217;s son supposedly has autism&#8212;but he keeps the kid hidden away and won&#8217;t get help for him because Scientology doesn&#8217;t believe in treating or acknowledging autism. It&#8217;s really creepy. Google the words autism with Travolta and a lot of stories will pop up. He&#8217;s about 14 and his name is Jett Travolta. Apparently the kid is very overweight and is never photographed with his parents. They are ashamed of him and it&#8217;s against Scientology &#8220;rules&#8221; to have autism, anyway!\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><!--adsense--><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jane emails: It sounds like Jerry Seinfeld and his wife might be getting into Scientology.
