Francis, Yes, the best revenge is a life well lived so that you can say, “I’m doing fine without your belief system, thank you very much!” And I loved your last comment that you want to hear from me when my kids break free of the shackles of being on staff and in the Cult. I promise to report to you when that happens. But we need to do all we can to hasten the demise of the church so that our loved ones will come back to us.

Cindy, exploiting and, in fact, fostering, the fear of the world is common to many religions; at least those that proclaim some sort of savior. I was caught up in that fear with the fervent Catholics I once gravitated towards. I think I would have been ripe for Scientology if I had ever stepped into their web.Sometimes I think the best offence against Scientology and these other toxic belief systems is simply to enjoy a good life without them and make no apologies. “I’m doing just fine without Scientology” can’t be refuted.

I, too, enjoy hearing about people helped by the Aftermath Foundation, to which I have made a small donation myself. If any of your kids are in the SO, I hope to hear their story when they get out.

Most of the non-Sea Borg people you see walking into the CoS in CW are NOT from this area. They are from out of state or country. So not representative of the local scamology ecosystem.

Yes. True words. Also my experience. I was also happy, that the kids come into a “safer” place. To survive, all of this seaorg prison slavery, they became clever liars. And they believe at the same time, that they say always the truth.

This is Not acceptable.

A person, who surrounds himself with 13 and 14 year old girls on a ship out in the sea with hot pants and sexy shirts is not more than a pedophile criminal.

From there it is a step of recruiting young girls and boys into the system.

So lets call it what it is: a pedophile criminal, who always wanted to implant his genious mind into the head of a lot of other people.

There is only one I have found with recent searches. Any others are probably home schools not with their own building and what not. Those don’t count.

Oh, and I just remembered, one of the teachers at Delphi LA even admitted that her personal stat that she was most proud of was: number of her kids that she teaches, who joined the SO. She would double team with them to help the reg cycle go well. It was Shell Stith or Missy Sargeant who said this. They are sisters and I forget which one worked at Delphi and said this but it was one of these two.

To add to Rip’s excellent comment, also remember that Scn schools serve a big purpose: a fishing pool for snaring young kids and leaning on them and their parents to join the SO. One recruiter even admitted that most of the young recruits they get in the SO came from one of these Scn schools.

“Drugs are bad, m’kay” is not actually a cogent philosophy. All cults brainwash their members into thinking the outside world is a horrible place where everyone’s miserable, and fear of drugs is part of that. Also fear of sex, of course. This terror that one unplanned step in the road will lead to disaster forever must be horrible to live with.

It’s good to pursue fun for its own sake. Cult victims aren’t allowed fun, which means they’re not allowed a basic need all mammals (and birds) have. What a great way to destroy a person.

You’re right. I forget because I see SO all over downtown that the paying members are mostly of non child bearing age. I assume this based on the people I see, not in vests, going in to Flag. I wonder how they can afford to homeschool? From what Ive learned the money is crazy to buy your way up that ‘bridge’.
