There is an xmission site at
http://www.xmission.com/~mirele/spam.html.

This site is simply awful. It attacks this Church of Scientology with lies. The Church of Scientology is a group I support. The person who has this page saysmany lies about Scientology, including accusing them of murder. I am going to report this site to my church, but I thought I would also report it to you. I don't know whether you care about this, but I hope you do. And I hope that if you do you have the ability to do something about it. I support free speech, but not lies.

To whom it may concern:

Your email to abuse@xmission.com was forwarded to me. As per my usual policy with threatening email, this will be posted to alt.religion.scientology along with your AOL address. I consider this email threatening because you are trying to get my web page removed from Xmission.

As you have expressed a concern about the page http://www.xmission.com/~mirele/spam.html, it would of course be very helpful if you could point out any lies in the page, as per your email.

Additionally, as I am continuing to collate Scientology members' web sites, I would like to add your site to my list. Please forward your URL as soon as possible to me.

Regards,
Deana M. Holmes mirele@xmission.com
