Anonymous, the anti-Scientology group made up of former Scientologists and others against the ‘religion’, are planning another round of global protests on July 12, under the title of “Spy vs. Sci”.

This time they are focussing their attention on the Office of Special Affairs (OSA).

“Why does something that describes itself as a religion need an intelligence agency that aggressively persecutes critics?”

The OSA controls the administering of justice and punishment to members of the church, whose most famous members are Tom Cruise and John Travolta.

“Most Scientologists are unaware of the functions of the OSA and accept what their leaders tell them about it,” says the release. “However, there is a growing body of evidence that OSA agents operate to attack perceived enemies by using infiltration, bribery, burglary and blackmail, in addition to threats, intimidation, assaults and worse.”

Protesters at the Spy vs. Sci demonstration will don costumes of characters like Austin Powers, James Bond and Modesty Blaise.
