Americans - write your congressperson!

I wrote my congressperson this morning about this speech in Australia. Told him as an American I was ashamed that these abuses were allowed to occur in my country, and glad that someone had the balls to stand up for what's right, for what's civilized.

Americans, you can follow this link to add your voice: https://writerep.house.gov/writerep/welcome.shtml

Awesome speech by Mr. Xeonophon is awesome. He put it well: "In Australia there are no limits on what you can believe. But there are limits on how you can behave. It is called the law, and no-one is above it."

Thanks to everyone involved for standing up for what's right, and to those who worked quietly in the background to help put it together.

Just great news. :happydance:

'Nuff said.
 
You are awesome!

Well done and THANK YOU to all those who contributed to this and everyone on this board! I am completely choked up by all you brave people who have come forward to talk to Senator Xenophon. I sincerely hope you get the justice you deserve. And also thank you Senator Xenophon for having the guts to do this.

America is the source of the infection. Hopefully, this will spread here. However, until we rectify our constitution, there are loopholes for "religions" like Scientology to abuse.

I disagree. We just need a better definition of religion. One that doesn't allow cults to open for business.

Freedom of religion is important. Scientology is not a religion.

And elron was the source not America. He just took advantage of America and the constitution.

Elron is American. The loopholes in the constitution are the weakness allowing the infection. Changing definitions of religion might help, but seriously, why is freedom of religion important? Perhaps that's another thread. I don't see tolerance for delusion as an important thing in democracy.

It is another thread. :D We'll do a history of the US another day.

Well, it’s less than 12 hours after the start of this thread, but I’m already a latecomer to the party! But, I would definitely like to add my name to the long list of congratulants. I checked the news today at work and this was already the top Scientology story and it’s only just begun.

Well done the Aussies and Kiwis! You guys are truly awesome!

What you have started ‘down under’ will reverberate throughout the world. There is a momentum now that cannot be stopped – it’s a huge avalanche of Truth sweeping away this cult of unreason.

Hubbard was never very keen on the Aussies, he must have known that they couldn’t be fooled for too long. He should have stayed away, but I guess that sometimes stupid people only learn the hard way. The CoS is receiving a lesson that it will never forget. :yes:

Carmel, you are a gem. An absolutely brilliant piece of organisation. Congratulations to the Schofields and Dethridges and Arron and of course, the Underwoods, for the courage they have shown in exposing the criminal activities of the Corporation of Scientology. I look forward to the media coverage.

David.

This thread has literally blown up overnight.

I haven't had a chance to read the whole thread yet, but I saw two youtube videos of Sen. Xenophon's speech.

It looks like mate has summarized the main people who are due congratulations for this, so I will just say "ditto."

:thumbsup:

Salutations to the Wizards of Oz!

Salutations to the Wizards of Oz!

Those who have communicated to the Senator have mostly put themselves at some risk. They have already been at risk from OSA and apparently handling that excellently, but they have also admitted to various crimes and misdemeanors, and perhaps put themselves at some risk of prosecution.

Senator Xenophon has no doubt been informed that COS will investigate thoroughly and dredge up anything that can be used to dead agent him.
So as a prominent politician he is being very brave.

I salute the courage of the Wizards from Oz!

I've been holding my breath waiting for this to start. This could be huge....and fatal.

The Cof$ is being exposed as a criminal organisation by Nick Xenophon, I can hardly believe it.

I'm so proud to know Carmel, Tim, Scoots, Aaron and the Dethridges they showed extraordinary courage in exposing the crimes they did.:thumbsup:

I know it wasn't easy for any of them and now according to the church we are serving a fascist regime. Bullshit!

We're exposing one.

Wankers!

THANK YOU, everyone who contributed to this great achievement! :thumbsup:

Wow! This camels back just snapped! Incredible job, and worth all your hard work. This is the first step in real action towards justice in ANZO. It can set a precedent for other countries. No wonder the trolls are all over this forum. Headway is being made. Time for a round of the best beer. Drink up!!
