Clearwater Sun (Florida) The 16 witnesses who testified in Clearwater's public hearings on Church of Scientology activities provided the first-hand information city officials will use if they decide to design ordinances to regulate the sect.

On the eve of City Commission hearings into church activities, there is little doubt that Scientology is the least popular institution in ...
