How do intelligent, normal, well-adjusted people get involved in cults? Easy.
I recall how hard it was to get away, but that once I did, it was painfully obvious what had happened: emotional abusers are adept at using your own natural human instincts against you. They control you by trampling upon your self-esteem, your certainties, and your confidence in your own decision making faculties.
Scientology oppresses its members with the same tactics used by abusive spouses. They train you to short circuit your own ability to make simple decisions, they erode your confidence in your own past experience, and substitute their own inadequacies instead.
Scientology exercises as much control as it can, even if it means causing you to lose your job, your family, and your friends. Just like emotional abusers do. I get angry as hell when I think about what I have lost.

Escape From Scientology
After being trapped in an abusive relationship with Scientology, I'm finally free. My escape was only made possible thanks to the hard work of the cyber-activism of Anonymous. I want to explain to the general public how an otherwise intelligent and well adjusted person can get caught up in Scientology's web of deceit. There truly is something evil in that the "Church" manipulates the basic psychology of its members/ victims in a way that is nearly impossible to escape until it's too late. It is also my opinion that they operate with the malign intent to not only drain their members emotionally, deprive them intellectually, but also to keep them oppressed financially. I am publishing an account of how Scientology robbed me of my life; of the jobs I lost, the friends who abandoned me, and worse, the time that I lost while indentured as an unwitting servant in this international criminal enterprise. It sounds almost unbelievable until you wake up to the reality of destructive cults in our midst. Think Jonestown, the Moonies, or the Raelians. These are all above ground cults which flourish in our mostly enlightened society. But they are only the tip of the iceberg. Not all cults need publicity to survive. Most thrive under the cover of darkness. It is my view that Scientology falls within the latter category; that the majority of their activities happen in the dark, paranoid, and secret world dreamed up by the charismatic confidence trickster, L. Ron Hubbard. I want to thank each and every Anonymous hero for your role in my awakening and to thank you for allowing me to present my story here. Sarah X |
