I am an ex-Scientologist. (LONG read)

I thought Scientology was just a nuisance cult, not a total brainwash suck cult. That is intense.

Have you ever seen the "auditing" sessions demonstrated by a couple ex-COS members?

Unbelieveable.

One of them was Stacey Brooks. Kurt loder once did an extensive interview with her.

Here is the first of it's 8 parts:

YouTube - MTV Kurt Loder interviews ex-Scientologist Stacy Brooks 1/8



Additionally, everyone should read up on the case of Lisa McPherson...its absolutely chilling.

Nope. I had never heard of Xenu before the South Park episode.

Did you ever know about alien stuff at all? Or was it all "auditing" and crap like that?

Cause I cant imagine that anyone who had a scintilla of interaction with the real world would beleive any of the alien stuff.
 
so when i moved to los angeles (by way of new orleans) i got interested in the COS. not that i ever wanted to fucking join, mind you, but rather if the actual batshit things i had heard were true or not.

so i'm in hollywood now, and the blood church of scientology has buildings everywhere. the gym i go to is the la fitness which is on the 2nd floor and overlooks the fucking L. Ron Hubbard comic book building (not sure what they call it, but the building on the corner of hollywood and sycamore; and petteles their wares to young kids). many a time when i break from deadlifts, i've seen an unmarked van pull up to the gate, the driver gets out, walks off, and is quickly replaced by another man from the building. just generally weird shit.
anywhoo, i'm a bit pissed right now, but if it's any consolation to you mate, i once punched a sea org member straight in the nuts off sunset, for no reason other than he was a sea org member.

take care.
 
oh shit Will did some random dude ever punch you in the nuts?

Serendipity FTW
 
I think the key is recognizing it's a sham. Just play the southpark episode over and over for the next two years, it's already a joke outside of the members (no offense ts). Good story though glad you made it out I didn't know it was that rough

No alien stuff before I joined the Sea Org. And I was way too mind fucked at that point to concentrate on one thing like obvious sci-fi is obvious.

I understand your frustration but dude... don't punch Sea Org members in the nuts. It could be REALLY bad for you.

rnaviaux - what's up with xenu and thetans?

Have you heard it from your church?

Do you believe that stuff?

One of you (if it was more than just you) who used the xenu account claimed to get reading/audits and they helped their migraines or some type of headache.

Who ever it was seemed to know very little about the actual intricacies involved in sci
 
most of their legal threats are completely baseless. but people get scared the second they start threatening to sue.

i'd even be willing to bet most of the stuff you signed was horseshit too. just b/c you signed your name to something doesn't mean you are absolutely bound to whatever it says.
 
Is bombing a scientology building terrorism, or counter terrorism?
 
I read the first post...but what kind of labor is it?and do they benifit money wise by getting this people to do free labor?

Also I live in the Central Coast aswell.....I live in Salinas,where do you live?

I never really knew anything about Scientology except that annonymous had a awesome internet campaign against them and some you tube video's I saw....nothing to actually make me have a strong opinion against them(I always seen alot of people on the internet talking crap but I don't like to assume enough without actual research) except be suspicious of them but after reading your first hand look,I have a more detailed view on them to have a real hard opinion against them...thanks.



Im gonna read the whole thread eventually,just needed to post lol.

Any kind of labor you can think of.

Santa Maria here, brother.

Enjoy the rest of the thread.
 
A question about the kids working 100 + hour weeks, what does the government say about them not being at school during the week?

Do they go to school AND work too?

What kind of labor could the Co$ possibly need them for? Cleaning up? Chopping wood?
