same ole same ole
I think efforts and energies would be better used paying attention to what our corrupt politicians have in store for us myself. Your thoughts and opinions are worthless on this subject of scientology. I'll bet alot of you haven't even read a book by the guy but want to play authoritarian because you jumped on the bandwagon of a few who have fallen into an attack mode out of hate and revenge.
You think Scientology , the church, is bad? Wait til we get the next President in office and how the plans to run this country begin to become obvious to even the rocks in this country. I want to hear what you're gonna do now about that. None of you will ever be in the group Scientology, so why are you wasting your time getting all worked up -or staying all worked up for those who were in it? On the other hand, you are living in the world and there are plenty of things you could be doing about what's going on in that, because you are each personally involved and responsible for what happens in it. Directly and indirectly responsible and a participant whether you want to be or not. How about think on that one?
Ewwwww, too real for you? LOL
I just posted because I'm not the only one who got something useful out of the scientology materials. Does that bother some of you? I'll bet it does. I managed to get out and get declared even though I had a chance to stay and be their monkey. I think I am a credible poster and have earned the right to say something on the subject, after 34 years. I didn't run to a critic board to help me make excuses as to how it was ok for me to go cause you guys told me how big and bad it all was. I, like hundreds of others, left on our own accord because we weren't little robots and clones of anyone. And we won't be for critic boards either. I am not a part of the church of scientology, so I don't speak to you "as" a scientologist. I speak to you about scientology, as one who knows something about it.
Propaganda runs rampant throughout the world in an effort to put each of us in a little black box where we can't see daylight unless some owner says ok.
With the Scientologists that I know, you will never see the day where we get in that box. No different than our forefathers who fought for freedom to live in the world and have constitutional rights , we will not be corraled by the ignorant or angry who think that anyone who did a course, or had an auditing session in scientology and "liked it" will be intimidated by those of you would like to destroy our rights to do so outside the church. The Scientologists who actually gained contructively from their experiences and never did anything to hurt another, but in fact helped many others, are getting hit from the Church Miscaviage and also by certain board critics. You can't put the people who screwed up other people in the same basket as those who "did not" but who really helped others. If you do, then you end up just being a mob. No intelligence behind any of it, just irrational behaviour no different than a vigilance committee.
Regardless, it's good to be able to post now and then when I have the desire. And though this probably doesn't make a dent, I still am content that the world isn't shut down yet and I was allowed to voice my thoughts.
I thank you all for that. And you should each want to establish a path that ensures you also get to voice yourselves as time goes on, imo, because it doesn't look very promising in that area right now.
