Ahhhh an outspoken woman, one of your many truly fine qualities Pooks
Thank you for posting from your heart. It is very much appreciated by myself.
The GO and OSA are but two of the more obvious names put to units of organized scientology wherein was found insane and abusive actions. And there were other units of organized scientology in whose name equally crazy actions were taken, all based on crazy Hubbard policies that were often followed. RTC, WDC, CMO, Author Services (for example) come to mind.
For that matter, I suspect that insane and abusive actions that constantly hurt innocent people are carried out every day throughout organized scientology by regs, ethics officers and others in orgs around the world where families are financially destroyed through crush regging or more directly through such things as insane ethics conditions and disconnection.
You have had the courage to speak out Patty and you have been doing so for years. You have nothing more for which to appologise. You are doing something about it and you have helped people though getting out the truth in many ways. Thank you!!!
Scientology is built with many inherently evil policies and insanities written into many policies. I believe that the good intentions of many ex staff like yourself were prayed upon by a madman and many immature and/or misled people who destroyed others for what ended up being worldly gain, all in the name of a questionably beneficial, outdated 1950s-type of therapy administered by highly unqualified practioners while cloaked in religion.
How could it not get crazy trying to support and defend that?
IMO
