Guys, please read the links. Ask yourself if you really want to come across this way towards Scientologists who have doubts about their church. If you want to condemn the victims and the redeemables along with the criminals. Because, let me tell you, as far as I'm concerned you're doing exactly that. There was someone on both of those links saying the best thing all Scientologists could do for the world would be committ mass suicide. He was threatening to shoot them if they came to his house. Another person was calling me a snake in the grass and a liar. Neither of which I am. Do you want to support these people? I would hope not.
I'm not saying you have to give the criminal Scientologists a free pass. I wouldn't want that. But I also want you to refrain from condemning those who aren't criminals. Those who use their tech to help people. Those willing to admit their mistakes, learn, and make friends with critics. They do exist. I know them. They don't see their religion as a criminal organization or an unredeemable cult. They haven't condemned me as an SP even though I don't like their church and they know it. I believe they should be acknowledged and allowed to practice Scientology their way, to hopefully one day grow to dominate their church- or at least build good lives for themselves and their friends. I will allow them the chance to do it even if you won't.
