WORD!

What are your crimes. I do not know how Tom, Kristie, John, Bart and the rest of the celebrities sleep at night either. They are able to check these abuses out and yet do not. I feel they are just as responsible for the child sexual abuse and other abuses as the people who actually were involved in these activities. These ads for donations are disgusting. To use the World Vision ads should be a crime. Wake up you celebritues. You need to speak out against his scam. It just proves that these celebrities have zero morals. Other parishioners do not have the advantages like the celebrities do.

Got an Uncle Sam end of year postcard promoting tax deductible donations. I haven’t been in or done a service since I left Flag as a kid in 1974. They have followed me through two name changes and about 10 different addresses in two states. They don’t stop. They don’t even care. They are complete and utter idiots. I’m going to stop throwing these away and start keeping them as evidence of harassment and abuse of the U.S. mail. I’m so done with this crap.

When the esteemed Freewinds recruiter Gavin Potter (my was bro-in-law)was called up before family court for not paying any child support for his firstborn, he pleaded to the judge that he couldn’t pay because he worked for a church and had no money. The judge told him he should quit and get a job at Mc Donald’s! Outstanding!

I heard from a local Chiropractor in the area (Sacramento) that Judy and her chiro hubby full court press recruitment of non-SCN chiros in the area. Certified it years later with another chiro that they have taken over the local chiropractic association. Professionals in Sacto are wise to the scams and are staying away in droves.

Holy Cow. Thank you. This is so surprising and so much nicer than my worries of just being a pain and an eye roll.

Oh, I had no idea I was not alone in the cult breaking up marriages over financial secrets…
A-hem!!

The cult’s elastic morals never cease to amaze. How perfectly okay and, “All for the greater good,” to with hold financial extortion; gang reg tactics; massive credit card debt and fraud from one’s spouse.

Give every ex silentologist $100 for every divorce caused by cult’s voracious greed.

Great list, Mike. Thanks.

Thanks for that Chuck! Interesting the snark and blatant calling out LRH as a charlatan even then! Most interesting were his answers and his, at the time, self-deprecating jokes about his education & service. Wonder what SO many still-ins would think reading the words of so-called “Source” himself countering all those inflated claims from his history/biography?!?

Beth –
I love what you said about being able to question, but LRH claiming to have ALL answers (& then making it a “sin” to question!). I’ve heard so many sermons or Bible studies on how it’s OK to question, to wonder and not giving some pat answer about how somethings wrong with me if I do. Or hearing various pastors offer insight but also willing to admit, “I don’t have all the answers… learn to trust your gut, trust God, etc…” I think I’d feel SO trapped & alone if my gut was telling me one thing but everyone close to me would write a report on me if I asked a question or showed ANY doubt!

Agree with this wholeheartedly Aqua! Watching Secret’s posts as he/she has been processing is such a gift.

(Thank you SFN – you’re being so vulnerable & open and my heart breaks that you’ve been doing this so alone! You’re doing an amazing job!!!

My soon-to-be daughter-in-law is finishing school to be a psychologist – evil SP, I know… – if she were to read this blog she’d definitely notice & talk about how open, raw and healthy you’re being in seeking help in a community of diverse voices, other viewpoints and recognizing where your automatic responses originate – that’s the toughest part!)
