Hello everyone,
I hate to drop in abruptly. I'm a new ex-scientologist, and I want to get rid of my crap (emeters and congresses) so I can get my life back and recover some of the money that I gave to this scam of a "church". Any ideas?? Can some one point me in the correct direction?
I didn't have any meters, but I had the Basics and Congresses. The binders were all piled up in the boxroom and it irritated my wife.
In the end, I hid two binders in every large trash bag I put outside. It took quite a few weeks but they all got taken.
I don't think the money I might have gotten would have been worth trying to sell them, then packing them up and lugging them to the post office.
If I had been a bit braver/more energetic I might have put them all in the car and then dumped them outside the org.
I don't think there is any market for CD binders or books, but it might be worth trying to sell your meters on Ebay, as Anonkat said.
I am pleased that after I woke up and left (finally), I wrote to any church friends, and replied to all the church email I received, giving my honest observations with excerpts and links to the best authoritative material on the abuses.
Only two friends definitely woke up because of this. Most people disconnected or emailed back and forth for a while before stopping writing to me (now I get are no more Scn email, letters or mags!). There are a few Scns I see sometimes at work - I told them my observations of the horrors as well, but I finally said I wouldn't talk to them about Scn any more unless they first spoke to me about it. So we don't talk about it for now. I am waiting for them to wake up as the nooses tighten on the fewer and fewer remaining necks. Hopefully one day soon they will come to me looking sheepish/anguished.
