Thanks Tommy 🙂 We are fortunate indeed.

Pepper – my hats off to you! You and I are the lucky ones, I count my blessing every single day, and your post warms my heart that other would put up with their BS.

Tommy, I’m so glad to hear that you thought twice about moving to CW and putting your daughter in a Scn school which heavily recruited kids for the SO. I also had to fight for a few of my kids who were recruited relentlessly for the S.O. My son was only 12 and my daughter 14. That was when it started but it didn’t end there. They were hounded for years, well into their young adulthood. I never won any popularity contests around the base but I always held the viewpoint that when it came to my children, I would do anything to ensure their well-being. I used to get pulled in for ‘interviews’ (interrogation) over my actions and get thinly veiled threats that I could get declared, which I always made it clear that they could go ahead with it and lose a whole family from Scientology. People need to stand up to these child predators. That’s exactly what I think of them.

Hi MM, Love your comment.Your word is so much more descriptive,I gave that disposable,despicable,a ghost-waif pass,I take it back.I’m with you,if we ever encounter said COB anywhere with you there,he better get his shit in order because he will be degraded that is a promise!

Hi alexdevalera, I like your post.All you posted is craved in stone for cos to throw out as a shining beacon of twisted light,as far as their intentions run!I love how they toss legal around when none have the slightest idea of the chasm between their legality & the actual fact.I am not the best person to talk legal with as I saw enough shananigens from my late parents parade of divorce lawyers over the years,but I do know when cos rides the crest of it’s Con Wave.Always Ann.

Hi racingintheblood,Very good to read your post again.Church of Circu$-$hmirku$-ology says it loud & proud.I feel throughout all of me that Mike,Marty, Luis,& many more heroes who have written & opened up about cos/SO etc have born the brunt.IRS I’ll wait & see having had a visit from them concerning SO Treasury & what that was up to,which was not my area of expertise at all.It seemed to me the two I dealt with had taken five minutes of the HCO course & fancied themselves executives with riding crops.It would not be far fetched to think cash may flow both ways between certain terminals in exchange for their silence or comments about the cos & tax exempt status go forever missing.Protect the Illusion & The Money at all times!Protect David too.Keep the Scam alive for as long as possible! What Out Ethics All Around!Always Ann.

Actually alexdevalera you are running into the HUMAN right of Freedom of Association. If you WANT to do weird religious cult crap like scamology you can. No one forces clams to sign away litigation rights. I would NEVER sign something like that. I never did while in. Now, Flubbards set up of using PI’s to harrass and other illegal activities are NOT protected and have nothing to do with that.

Fair enough Ann. At least the word I was thinking of starts with the same letter.

Hi Regraded Being, A beautiful post and it will resonate for many,as it has for me.I have so much respect & true admiration for those you listed & Valerie who sends such inspirational words as well.For years I was afraid to think or post what I have here.I was beaten down in so many ways & directions by SO etc,I was so afraid no one would believe me at all.So I stayed silent for decades.And no matter how or what all of us see David as,& many here intimately know him,I only wrote him as a teenager & he seemed nervous in his letter back to me,your comment on his wanting silence is so powerful.I can always get louder if need be & staying quiet for him,will not be on my to do list.Love Always Ann.
