I'm glad I helped you learn a bit more about it!

I highly suggest anyone who wants to understand Scientology better watch the documentary "Going Clear." Its on HBO but I'm sure it can be found pirated in other places. Its based on a book by the same name and goes into the history of Scientology, its beliefs, and exactly how it abuses its members.

Again I sincerely recommend people watch this film if they have the time/are in the right headspace. It includes accounts of emotional and physical abuse (both domestic abuse and high control group abuse), severe neglect of an infant, forced labor under horrific conditions, and the kind of manipulative behavior you would expect from a cult.
