“Yes, tonight’s the night we ring in a New Year and ring out an old,” declared Mr. David Miscavige, the ecclesiastical leader of the Scientology religion. “So, while others tell tales of Father Time, the Lord of Time, time immemorial, time inconceivable, time after time, and, ‘just in the nick of time’—well, we are the exception to the rule that ‘time waits for no one,’ if only for the fact time is always on our side. So, while everyone else has a ‘devil of a time’ comprehending who we are, in light of all we accomplished in the last twelve months—this, my friends, is show time!” © 2025 Church of Scientology International.
