If you're reading this, you obviously were allowed libs this weekend. Can you recall a time when you were denied, even though it wasn't your fault? Perhaps right now, you are happy enough to be roaming around, away from the control of the Sea Org. But, you know you'll have to return in a while.
Perhaps you know people who were thrown into the RPF. While you're out and about, what are they doing right now?
Have you ever been prevented from going to berthing at night because some task wasn't completed?
Have you ever been punished by being fed nothing but rice and beans?
Have you ever been denied the ability to visit with your family, or prevented from spending holidays with them?
That's life in the Sea Org, isn't it! Perhaps you're resigned to it; after all, you signed a lot of documents when you joined, agreeing to place your life and your youth in the hands of CSI. Perhaps you feel trapped and hopeless that your life will ever get any better. Well, guess what!
SOMETHING CAN BE DONE ABOUT IT!
Marc Headley was an executive at Golden Era Productions in Riverside County. Located on 400 acres, this compound is surrounded by fences with security spikes on the inside; clearly not meant to keep people out. There, people are subjected to the same harsh treatment you've doubtless seen in LA. It's even worse, though. There is literally nowhere to run, it's out in the desert, miles from civilization.
Marc Headley made his run to escape on a dirt bike. He was run off the road by security guards, rescued by police, and given an escort into town to prevent him being recaptured by the guards.
Marc's wife, Claire, was coerced into having two abortions while in the Sea Org. Maybe you know of someone that suffered the same thing. The Sea Org does not want its members having kids.
Laura DeCrescenzo joined the Sea Org at age 12. This child worked long hours, received little schooling, and her youth was spent working to make money for Scientology. She was coerced into having an abortion at age 16.
These people have something in common. They all worked long hours for far less than minimum wage. They received no health insurance, and their medical problems, if treated, were provided by public clinics and paid for by taxpayers. They endured privation, abuse, and their every move was controlled. They were completely dependent upon Scientology for food, medical care and lodging. And Scientology failed them.
These people have one more thing in common. They left the Sea Org and their lives of toil and abuse at slave wages, and they are suing.
They are suing for compensation for their years of hard work at well under minimum wage.
They are suing for emotional distress, as well as the children they might have had, aborted at the direction of Sea Org policy.
The papers you signed when you joined are not legal agreements. You should be made aware of that. Those agreements which violate your civil rights are unenforceable.You cannot be made to sign those rights away. Those documents you signed will not hold up in court.
Perhaps you were told that, because you're a "religious worker," CSI doesn't have to pay you minimum wage, and that your room and board counts as part of your compensation. This is false. The courts have determined in past cases that minimum wage must be paid, regardless of the "religious" nature of the work. Slavery is illegal. Religions are not exempt from labor laws. Any written agreements that violate these laws are void. Okay? They are not legally binding!
YOU DID NOT SIGN YOUR RIGHTS AWAY WHEN YOU JOINED THE SEA ORG!
You may have been told that you're a volunteer. However, Scientology's own websites refers to Sea Org members as "employees." As such, they have certain rights which may not be waived, given up, or ignored.
You should also be aware that documents signed under duress, that is, under threat, are not legally binding.
People who join the Sea Org at a young age may find that, when they leave, they have nothing. No education, no savings, no idea where to go from there. The threat of "flipping burgers" is held as an example of what life may hold outside the Sea Org and Scientology.
Yet, people who work in fast food restaurants work eight hour days. They have days off that are truly theirs. They receive health insurance. They are not subjected to punishment and abuse. They are not sec-checked. Many people work these jobs to pay for college.
Marc and Claire Headley, Laura DeCrescenzo have one more thing in common. They are suing CSI for compensation. Slave wages, abuse, forced abortions are illegal in this country. You simply cannot subject people to this kind of totalitarian control, but Scientology has been getting away with it for years.
If you're tired of living this way, you can leave. Just walk away and don't look back. The exit process is designed to break you down and convince you to stay. You don't have to route out. The contracts you signed are not binding.
Marc Headley escaped on a motorcycle. Laura DeCrescenzo swallowed bleach. You can just walk away. There are people on the outside who are ready and willing to help.
Should you make the decision to leave, you can do that right now. Put down the mouse and get to a phone. Call 1-866-XSEAORG. It is a toll-free call. There is an ex-Sea Org member at the other end of the line, someone who knows what you've been through.
Then call attorney Barry Van Sickle, who is handling these cases for the Headleys and DeCrescenzo. His number is (916) 549-8784.
You don't have to work your life away so that David Miscavige can have his thousand dollar suits and Ducati motorcycles. While you slave, he lives in luxury. You know that is true. He is saving the planet, one expensive luxury at a time, while you go without medical care and live under horrible conditions.
It is time for CSI to pay back its loyal workers for the privation and abuses they've suffered. These three people are only the beginning of a flood of lawsuits.
Right now, Tommy Davis is visiting ex-Sea Org members, trying to get them to sign statements declaring that they were volunteers. He is doing this at DM's instruction; it is a desperate attempt to cover their asses for years of truly horrendous treatment suffered by members who worked hard in the belief that they were saving the planet.
You have the right to receive minimum wage for your labor. You have the right to see your family, get married, have children. Nobody can take that away from you, but you can give up these rights if you're not aware of them. You have the right to a decent education, decent food, time off. You have the right to work an eight hour day, and enough time for sleep and personal business. You have the right to call your family and receive mail without being monitored.
In a world where your every move is controlled and directed, you have the right to make one decision. Walk away. You can leave, and there are people who will help you find a place to stay and help you return to normal society. With all its flaws, it isn't as bad as you've been told. It's certainly better than what you endure now. You know those scary masked protesters? If you were to run up to them and tell them you want to leave, they will help you and protect you from the Sea Org personnel who will try to force your return.
We don't wear masks to scare you. We wear masks to protect ourselves from Scientology retribution. If we were the monsters Scientology claims we are, why would we spend our free time fighting for your rights? -- xenubarb Chaplain, ARSCCwdne
A walk down the path of history is crunchy with the crispy corpses of those who pooh-poohed or ignored the clown car of ridicule when it pulled-up to the curb.

Dear children, Please ignore the hateful messages from the man calling himself "Gregory Hall". He is not interested in you, he doesn't care about children. He sees women as sex objects. So does he with your mothers.

Notice for those still in or recovering from the Scientology scam Re: Scn Non Disclosure Agreements having never been enforced by a court of law.
Florida's Sunshine Laws prohibit concealing a public hazard, from Ralph Nader's book about Litigation "No Contest" page 96 emphasis mine:
"In 1990, Florida adopted an antisecrecy law, The Sunshine in Litigation Act. The law prohibits courts from entering orders that conceal a public hazard or information about a public hazard. The law also makes any agreement to conceal a public hazard unenforceable and allows the public or newsmedia to contest court orders or contracts that conceal public hazards."
Based upon this, ANY of scientology's non disclosure, and secrecy "contracts" signed in Florida are UNENFORCEABLE by law.
Tell your stories now, you know what it is that Scientology doesn't want you to reveal.
Don't carry that soul wasting, toxic blackness inside you any longer, get rid of it, the law is on your side.
An intentional perversion of the truth for the purpose of inducing another in reliance upon it to part with some valuable thing or to surrender a legal right; a false representation of a matter of fact, whether by words ot conduct, by false or misleading allegations, or by concealment of that which should have been disclosed, which deceives and is intended to deceive another so that he shall act upon it to his legal inquiry; anything calculated to deceive, whether by a single act or combination, or by suppression of truth, or suggestion of what is false, whether it be by direct falsehood or innuendo, by speech or silence, word of mouth, or look or gesture; fraud comprises all acts, omissions, and concealments involving a branch of legal or equitable duty and resulting in damage to another.
In his book Complicity: Ethics and Law for a Collective Age, Christopher Kutz suggests that ‘marginally effective participants in a collective harm are accountable for the victim’s suffering, not because of the individual differences they make, but because their intentional participation in a collective endeavour directly links them to the consequences of that endeavour.’
Have you ever looked around you while walking around Los Angeles? Do you ever notice other kids your age, driving cars, shopping for clothes, enjoying a meal on a restaurant patio?
Some of them are devoted to saving the world, and dedicate some of their time to saving the environment, being politically active, adopting causes. But children, these kids aren't spending 99% of their time running on the Hamster Wheel to Toadle Freedom!
Youth is a time of discovery. Parties with friends, a day at the beach, your first car, dating, and learning what the real world is all about.
Have you ever been to the mountains or the desert? Or, is your time spent within the Scientology reality bubble?
Do the names Miscavige or Wiseman sound familiar to you? How about Woodcraft? He was the architect who redesigned the Freewinds. Bruce Wiseman is the president of CCHR. And I don't think I have to tell you who Miscavige is. So, here are the stories of growing up in Scientology by their daughters and neices. Why are they speaking out? Because they all realise it's the right thing to do. Perhaps you can benefit from the stories from Scientology's "royal" families. Maybe you have a story you'd like to add.
Perhaps these stories may remind you of what your life is like now.
So much of what Scientology is teaching you is not true. If you're reading this, it's possible that you, yourself have nagging doubts, but you keep them to yourself, don't you? Because you know what will happen if you dare to share them with a confidant...kr reports, Ethics, the RPF.
Kids, out in the real world, we have the right to speak out about things we feel aren't "right." Real communication means sharing your thoughts with others, and getting their input. I have met many ex-Scientologists. They are, like you, often intelligent people who misplaced their trust.
One thing I think is interesting is, they all harbored these doubts. So, if there are things about the Sea Org that bother you, be assured that the people around you are also harboring doubts about Scientology, yet none of you dare to mention them for fear of reprisal.
This isn't freedom! The gate to the Auschwitz concentration camp had a message to the prisoners on it; 'Arbeit macht frei,' work makes you free. The Nazis twisted these words around, being in a concentration camp doing slave labor isn't freedom!
You are at a time in your life when you should be getting your first car and exploring the world around you. Like the song says, 'Nobody walks in L.A."
You should be playing at the beach. You should have your first job, and be earning your own money for toys like Ipods, computers, video games. You should have a dog. You should have real friends, who like you for who you are, friendship not dependant upon membership in a group.
Saving the world is a noble endeavor. But Scientology is a mock-up; the organization isn't really working in that direction. Deep down inside, you probably know this, but you don't want to know. Your youth is being stolen. Many members, when they finally leave, are in their 20s and 30s. You can never get the time back when you are free to explore the world. You'll be spit out as an adult into the real world, with no skills, no connections, no friends. It's harder as you get older.
Right now, there's still time to go to school and learn to do something you enjoy. Making money is only part of life, but it does grease the wheels. If you start now, you can take your life back, and still get in on some of the youthful fun you're entitled to enjoy.
I know, you wouldn't know what to do if you packed up your small belongings and walked out, never to return. You don't know where to go, or who to trust. Los Angeles is a big city.
However, there is a big network of people who would be happy to help you! Magoo, myself, Arnie, Warrior, Dr. Dave Touretzky, we can all be contacted thru email.
If you're fed up with your life in the Sea Org and Scientology, you can find help. Some of you, like Magoo, have invested their whole lives inside Scientology, and you know that, if you leave, you will lose all your friends and, some of you, your families as well.
That's no different than a drug addict who decides to clean up. They have to give up their old friends and their old life, too. But, people do it all the time. It's not impossible.
And here's a funny thing. Ex-members are connecting up with some of their old, dear friends on the other side of the veil! Sometimes you just have to wait until they "wake up" too, and leave the organization.
If you stay in, Scientology will use you up. There is no retirement home for elderly Scientologists. There is no pension plan. When you quit producing, that's it! You will find yourself on a street corner, clutching a garbage bag of possessions, with nowhere to go, no Social Security (such as it is) and few options. You know this is true! An old person with few skills is doomed to taking crappy jobs for minimum wage, living in a crappy little apartment somewhere. But, think about it.
They've got their own place, which they don't have to share. Nobody is going to drink the last milk in their fridge, or eat the last Ho-Ho out of the cupboard. They can have a television if they wish. They can call their friends whenever they want. They don't need permission to go out of town.
It's better when you're young enough to create a decent life for yourself. Think about it! If you want to cut class, you can, although a responsible person would realize that they're going to school for a reason. Having your own car means you can take a drive up Mt. Wilson to see the snow whenever you want. You don't need anyone's permission to do anything. That's Total Freedom, kids! Being responsible enough to pilot your own life, not relying on somebody else telling you what to do, being free enough to hit the beach on a sunny day when you feel like it.
Taking up hang gliding, riding motorcycles, exploring the boundaries of your own ability. You should, at this point in your life, be driving your own bus. Don't you want to?
Surf's up! The fish are biting! The sun is out (well, not today) and you should be outside, expanding your mind, learning new things, meeting new friends. You should be driving your own bus. Don't you want to?
One other thing. There are people on this newsgroup whose job it is to confuse and instill mistrust. They pose as critics of Scientology, but it's just a Scientology op. All the off-topic posts about eevil psychs, same thing, a Scientology op to disrupt communication here.
Odd behavior for a group that claims to be committed to communicating, isn't it?
Road Runner, Truth Seeker, Lily Fired, Space Traveler (aka Roadrunner) Barbara Schwarz, are all Scientologists trying to break the flow of communication about Scientology and its abuses. Some pose as critics. However, they will never recommend critical websites, trying to convince you that the critical sites are somehow Scientology related OSA ops.
Truth Seeker is known for referring readers to a series of essays, written by OSA, which purport to be critical.
http://www.xenu.net is one site he won't recommend. http://www.lermanet.com is another. The creator of lermanet.com is Arnie Lerma, ex-SO member, who almost married one of Hubbard's daughters! You can trust him. He has helped many people get their lives back.
For those of you who are disconnected from friends and family, here is a brand new website set up for people in your situation: http://www.reconnect.org/
Beware of the sock puppets who say everyone here is OSA. I'm not. On my hate pages at religiousfreedomwatch.com/extremists, the first thing on that page is, "Barbara Graham has never been a Scientologist, never had relatives who were in, etc."
Look at those pages. If a person is listed as a "religious extremist," it means they are on Scientology's "enemies list."
Did you ever wonder why a "church" has an enemy's list? ---------------------------------------------- And now, an added note from someone who has been where you are now: "Rockyslammer's" message to you;
I came into scientology when I was 17 years old - I left when I was 35 years old. I had to start my life anew. I had to work extra hard to make up for 18 years of not earning. Everything people normally do much younger. I vowed to give my kids a better start than I made for myself.
My daughter was born into scientology. We left when she was quite young. She did her schooling and then went to university. She studied sound and TV production and has just graduated. She is working her first job. She is a female DJ and obviously heavily into music. She teaches kids to DJ. She has travelled to many countries and has just learnt to surf. She has been riding horses since she was 6 years old and has had three horses/ponies. At the moment she is learning dressage. She has boyfriends, a car, a flat of her own and she can talk to ANYONE she wants. And she does - because she is very outgoing.
She is better at communication than me - an OT! I love her to bits as I do her younger brother. I am a very proud dad!!
My son is nine and he has great fun playing "Crazy Frog" on a his little guitar. He is really very good. What is even more amazing is that he is really hooked on Beethoven's "Flur Elise" - gosh what is the modern generation coming to? He also loves to boogy board and snorkel.
His school is right on the beach and he swims every day in summer. Unfortunately he is also addicted to his computer games. Damn!

No need to fear Barbz, kids. She has your best interests at heart. Her weekly "To The Sea Org Kids" posts are a valuable public service. Read her whole post, and, if you're in the Sea Org, take some time to think about her words.
Religious Freedom Watch is a Scientology-run site, attempting to foment lies about honest Scientology critics like Barbara Graham. Follow the link above, and give it a look; it's actually pretty transparent, what they're trying to do. Make up your own mind.
Also do a search and read some of Gregory Hall's, ummm, wisdom. It's pretty transparent where he's coming from as well. He usually follows Barb's "Sea Org" posts with this "Stranger Danger" nonsense, for whatever reason (Mom made him the wrong sandwich, or that woman next door pointed the Mace can at him again....).

period.
Greg, If you're a Scientologist, I guess I understand you're just doing your thing. But if you're not, and you keep talking up evengelical Christianity so I've always assumed that that was your world-view, why are you doing the cult's work for them? It's not like they pay people well, but you should be on the cult payroll what with all the work you do on their behalf to smear its critics.

I find Barbara Graham's solicitation of Scientology children way out of bounds. No sane person would actively attempt to cyber kidnap any child from their parents. It's sick. It's disgusting and it's despicable. It tells me the woman is very dangerous and represents a very real danger to society. She needs to be in jail.
Those of you who support her perverse solicitations of minors are almost as bad. Your only saving grace is your ignorance of how abhorrent her acts really are. Think how you would feel if some creep lured a child or yours away from you - for whatever reason. I don't know about you but I would make it my mission in life to ensure that my child was the LAST child the creep ever lured away from anybody.
As for Scientology, the more I learn of it the worse it seems. But, as long as Scientology is recognized as a religion, I will support the right of people who wish to join Scientology to do so. I am no hypocrite like the rest of you. I don't deny the Constitutionally guaranteed right to worship the religion of one's choice even if I disagree with what they teach.

Laura DeCrescenzo joined the Sea Org at age 12. This child worked long hours, received little schooling, and her youth was spent working to make money for Scientology. She was coerced into having an abortion at age 16.
These people have something in common. They all worked long hours for far less than minimum wage. They received no health insurance, and their medical problems, if treated, were provided by public clinics and paid for by taxpayers. They endured privation, abuse, and their every move was controlled. They were completely dependent upon Scientology for food, medical care and lodging. And Scientology failed them.
These people have one more thing in common. They left the Sea Org and their lives of toil and abuse at slave wages, and they are suing.
They are suing for compensation for their years of hard work at well under minimum wage.
They are suing for emotional distress, as well as the children they might have had, aborted at the direction of Sea Org policy.
The papers you signed when you joined are not legal agreements. You should be made aware of that. Those agreements which violate your civil rights are unenforceable.You cannot be made to sign those rights away. Those documents you signed will not hold up in court.
Perhaps you were told that, because you're a "religious worker," CSI doesn't have to pay you minimum wage, and that your room and board counts as part of your compensation. This is false. The courts have determined in past cases that minimum wage must be paid, regardless of the "religious" nature of the work. Slavery is illegal. Religions are not exempt from labor laws. Any written agreements that violate these laws are void. Okay? They are not legally binding!
YOU DID NOT SIGN YOUR RIGHTS AWAY WHEN YOU JOINED THE SEA ORG!
You may have been told that you're a volunteer. However, Scientology's own websites refers to Sea Org members as "employees." As such, they have certain rights which may not be waived, given up, or ignored.
You should also be aware that documents signed under duress, that is, under threat, are not legally binding.
People who join the Sea Org at a young age may find that, when they leave, they have nothing. No education, no savings, no idea where to go from there. The threat of "flipping burgers" is held as an example of what life may hold outside the Sea Org and Scientology.
Yet, people who work in fast food restaurants work eight hour days. They have days off that are truly theirs. They receive health insurance. They are not subjected to punishment and abuse. They are not sec-checked. Many people work these jobs to pay for college.
Marc and Claire Headley, Laura DeCrescenzo have one more thing in common. They are suing CSI for compensation. Slave wages, abuse, forced abortions are illegal in this country. You simply cannot subject people to this kind of totalitarian control, but Scientology has been getting away with it for years.
If you're tired of living this way, you can leave. Just walk away and don't look back. The exit process is designed to break you down and convince you to stay. You don't have to route out. The contracts you signed are not binding.
Marc Headley escaped on a motorcycle. Laura DeCrescenzo swallowed bleach. You can just walk away. There are people on the outside who are ready and willing to help.
Should you make the decision to leave, you can do that right now. Put down the mouse and get to a phone. Call 1-866-XSEAORG. It is a toll- free call. There is an ex-Sea Org member at the other end of the line, someone who knows what you've been through.
Then call attorney Barry Van Sickle, who is handling these cases for the Headleys and DeCrescenzo. His number is (916) 549-8784.
You don't have to work your life away so that David Miscavige can have his thousand dollar suits and Ducati motorcycles. While you slave, he lives in luxury. You know that is true. He is saving the planet, one expensive luxury at a time, while you go without medical care and live under horrible conditions.
It is time for CSI to pay back its loyal workers for the privation and abuses they've suffered. These three people are only the beginning of a flood of lawsuits.
Right now, Tommy Davis is visiting ex-Sea Org members, trying to get them to sign statements declaring that they were volunteers. He is doing this at DM's instruction; it is a desperate attempt to cover their asses for years of truly horrendous treatment suffered by members who worked hard in the belief that they were saving the planet.
You have the right to receive minimum wage for your labor. You have the right to see your family, get married, have children. Nobody can take that away from you, but you can give up these rights if you're not aware of them. You have the right to a decent education, decent food, time off. You have the right to work an eight hour day, and enough time for sleep and personal business. You have the right to call your family and receive mail without being monitored.
In a world where your every move is controlled and directed, you have the right to make one decision. Walk away. You can leave, and there are people who will help you find a place to stay and help you return to normal society. With all its flaws, it isn't as bad as you've been told. It's certainly better than what you endure now. You know those scary masked protesters? If you were to run up to them and tell them you want to leave, they will help you and protect you from the Sea Org personnel who will try to force your return.
We don't wear masks to scare you. We wear masks to protect ourselves from Scientology retribution. If we were the monsters Scientology claims we are, why would we spend our free time fighting for your rights? -- xenubarb Chaplain, ARSCCwdne
A walk down the path of history is crunchy with the crispy corpses of those who pooh-poohed or ignored the clown car of ridicule when it pulled-up to the curb.
If you're reading this, you obviously were allowed libs this weekend. Can you recall a time when you were denied, even though it wasn't your fault? Perhaps right now, you are happy enough to be roaming around, away from the control of the Sea Org. But, you know you'll have to return in a while.
Perhaps you know people who were thrown into the RPF. While you're out and about, what are they doing right now?
Have you ever been prevented from going to berthing at night because some task wasn't completed?
Have you ever been punished by being fed nothing but rice and beans?
Have you ever been denied the ability to visit with your family, or prevented from spending holidays with them?
That's life in the Sea Org, isn't it! Perhaps you're resigned to it; after all, you signed a lot of documents when you joined, agreeing to place your life and your youth in the hands of CSI. Perhaps you feel trapped and hopeless that your life will ever get any better. Well, guess what!
SOMETHING CAN BE DONE ABOUT IT!
Marc Headley was an executive at Golden Era Productions in Riverside County. Located on 400 acres, this compound is surrounded by fences with security spikes on the inside; clearly not meant to keep people out. There, people are subjected to the same harsh treatment you've doubtless seen in LA. It's even worse, though. There is literally nowhere to run, it's out in the desert, miles from civilization.
