Voltaire's Child
Fool on the Hill
Hi,
Everyone's story is different. We all had different last straws (I even started a thread about that a few weeks ago). I think that's a very strong indication of the many things that are wrong with CofS and with Scn.
I liked the things I learned in Scn "tech". I did. I still do. I just feel I've moved beyond it.
I ditched CofS within two years of finding the first critical forum on which I posted (alt.religion.scientology) and had many satisfying and fun discussions with people there before, during, and after the process. (It's not true that I came in screaming insults at them. My posts are google-able). More importantly, perhaps, is that I made friends back then whom I still am proud to be associated with today.
Finding my own way philosophically has been a trip and a half, let me tell you.
I've had more of a connection to the divine lately and that seems to be part of my path. Here's a thread I wrote about that. Lately there's been more happening on this.
