Put simply: No
Making final 'ammends' or 'reconnections' is completely anathema to=20 Scientology.
By dogma, he will merely move on to a new body, and his 'relationships'=20 in 'this life' have no more meaning than they did in 'this life'; which=20 is zilch. Nada. None.
Scientology is more important than 'relationships', which is why=20 'disconnection' is a non issue for those disconnected for 10 years, or=20 as is more common, 20 or 30 years.
I'm glad he attempted to 'reconnect', but not at all surprised that he=20 didn't apologize.
Neither is 'Scientology=AE'
