I was a hardcore drug addicted escort for many years and last April 26, 2019 I was arrested on a warrant and went to jail. That night the nurse told me I was pregnant. I slammed my forehead on her desk and bawled my eyes out. I had no idea. My son is 4 months old Today! I’m sober still and happier than ever ☺️

I escaped a cult with my Mom when I was 12. We had to break a window and climb out of a padlocked camper in the middle of the night and with one garbage bag of clothes and belongings and walk to a gas station 5 miles away where she called my father who came and got us. It was such a horrible existence. Things 24 yrs. later I still can barley talk about and one thing in particular that I still cry about sometimes. The beatings and the rigid horrible rules and the ritualistic insanity and cruelty, punishments, indoctrination, and fear are something that people who have not survived a cult just can’t understand. It’s beyond the comprehension of a person with an average lived existence to even grasp. I cannot tell you how much the FEAR keeps people prisoner but then the fear is ultimately what makes people leave. And I’m telling you, SCIENTOLOGY IS A CULT💯. Abusive, punishing, shackling, brainwashing, coercion, dogmatic persecution, no individual decision making, no say in your own life, no way of leaving only escaping, and then not without losing everyone you love and leaving everything behind. AFRAID EVERY SECOND OF YOUR LIFE THAT YOU WILL DO SOMETHING WRONG THAT RESULTS IN PUNISHMENTS BY THE PEOPLE WATCHING YOU. ALWAYS WATCHING YOU. And even if you did nothing wrong, still getting physically punished and used and abused. That, as I know from experience, IS A CULT. The government needs to step in and burn the cult of Scientology to the ground.

Let me say this...I once worked for a man who was a practicing Scientologist. He was weird. And I have nothing against weird people. We're all weird in some way. But this fellow brought "weird" up to a whole new level I had never seen before. One day his wife, a very lovely intelligent woman, came up to me and told me that when they first married he was the most loving and dedicated husband on the planet. Then he found Scientology. She told me the change was incredible. Gone was the man she married. In his place was someone she did not recognize. Had never met before. She told me that even though they share the same house, the same bedroom, it is like she is living alone. She was on the brink of tears because she had lost her husband. And the worst part was she did not know how to get him back. That was one of the saddest conversations I have ever had with another human.

It’s abuse. They want to isolate you, just like an avusuve controlling husband/wife. You can’t read or watch media, you can’t have contact with anyone who is not a Scientologist, you can’t tell them anything about what you read, studies whatever. The whole point is Scientology must be your entire world and anything that can influence you otherwise or challenge you otherwise needs to be eliminated. Oh and let’s not forget not only do you need to work for filling you need to pretty much give them your entire paycheck… Similar to those people that had a picture of their child on the fridge thinking That for the cost of a cup of coffee a day, they are giving some child the opportunity to keep living. And yet you have intelligent adults not realizing how many millions of people have that same picture on their fridge. Mind control, guilt, etc.

That happened to my parent-in-laws. They joined this cult after they retired, they gave this church all their retirement checks, and signed a million year contract for cheap labor and long days. When they escaped, they called us from a pay phone in a one minute phone call, telling us they were going into hiding for at least five years, so they wouldn’t be killed. That was in the 1980s. For 5 years we did not know where they were. They’ve passed away now of old age. This cult has not changed much.

The judgement needs to be that all the children who did lose their childhood are sharing the cult's fortune - after expenses to the state and the legal teams' service fees have been subtracted.

I thought Mormonism (that I escaped from) was controlling with guilt, fear and shame. Scientology has child slave camps and coerced abortions. Mormonism has coerced adoption. My friend was raped and wanted to keep her child. The LDS heavily pressed on her to adopt out the baby into an “Eternal, temple sealed family.” She refused. My friend married a year later and went on to have 10 more children. The one conceived in rape is just as loved as all the rest. I’m glad this woman didn’t let a “religion” force her to kill her baby.

He also gets a bunch of work done by the Sea Org. So does Tom Cruise. I can't imagine being as close to Miscavige as they both are and not knowing what's going on. Just makes me think of how brave Leah Remini is, and how brave all the others are who speak out against Scientology. It takes major guts to do what they do.

I'm also relieved to hear Astra's father has stood by her, I have an awesome Dad who has ALWAYS been there for me so it's good to hear there are still some Dad's out there that live up to the name. I also hope that Astra's realises that a mother who makes you feel guilty about NOT aborting your child - her GRANDCHILD FFS!!! - is not really a truly caring mother and obviously DOESN'T care about her own daughter's feelings or welfare and Astra and Kate DESERVE a REAL mother and Grandmother and the mother Astra has DOESN'T deserve her or any granddaughter!!! Hearing about what Astra's mother said to her and about her makes me nauseated and irate!!🤮🤮🤮🤬🤬🤬 As for Kate and what to tell her about her father....the TRUTH because if she finds out she's been lied to it will cause damage between mother and daughter and even though the truth hurts for a while it will make Kate not only stronger but thankful for the REAL FAMILY she has and not fall for any BS later in life - if it arises! The #ExScientologyKidsFoundation is a great idea and keeping finger's crossed that this will help UNdo alot of this CULT's extremely damaging indoctrination and give people the support they need to start over!🤞🤞🤞🤞

Kudos to the father, Astra, and Zoey; I’ve watched videos of the dad telling his family’s story - from his marriage to his wife and their activities in Scientology, having 3 kids and leaving Scientology, then his wife going back in and eventually dragging the family in. He got out, helped Astra and Kate get out, then they helped Zoey leave. It’s sad that the mother, son/brother, and grandmother will likely never leave the CoS and never see them again. But that’s how the CoS does: stresses loyalty to Scientology and families are routinely broken up over this. So good for those who’ve left and I Woodall of you all well!

Tom Cruise has been deceived just like the rest of them. And keep this in mind....People like Astra, Leah Remini, and Mike Rinder were all once just as furtive believers in Scientology as Tom Cruise is. Hopefully Tom Cruise will one day realize the truth. But you have to imagine how difficult it would be, especially for someone like Tom Cruise. Look at what he's been taught to believe, that Scientology would one day give him this massive supernatural power over his life and the route it takes. If there is anyone who would believe that these supernatural powers are actually possible, it would be Tom Cruise. He's mega rich. Millions of fans adore him. He is one of the biggest movie stars on the planet. Almost everything he does turns to gold. You wanna talk about having your beliefs seemingly validated. Now imagine that if Tom was to believe these nasty "rumors" about Scientology and possibly leave his "religion", he might very well lose all the good things in his life as a result. Tom has a lot of incentive for continuing to believe the way he does. (Btw, I'm simply speaking from Tom's perspective. I personally don't believe any of the bullshit Scientology spews out. Scientology is a business, and a corrupt one at that. Nothing more.)

Has anyone else here in this discussion ever been to a Scientology "meeting" to meet the members, in hopes that you can be recruited? Tell your story. I was invited to a New Years Eve event in Kitchener, Ontario one year. By the time my friend (a hard core Scientologist and weirdo after she joined), and I left, I was in a state of -- well, I can't really describe it -- I was numb, literally stunned, overwhelmed and distressed. I felt it not only emotionally, psychologically, but physically too. I'd even go so far as to say I felt slightly hypnotized. At one point, I thought I was going to be sick to my stomach. It was deeply disturbing to see. Through it all of course, being who I am, (made of strong stuff,) I was able to remain detached and watch the followers objectively and watch their behaviors from a distance, so to speak. I was able to keep my brain walled off from the brainwashing their movie was intended to achieve. The film I refer to was a kind of celebratory-promotional-reinforcing kind of thing. The imagery was wild and fast, the volume was intolerably loud, and the propaganda against the world at large was hostile, paranoid, and psychopathic. It truly was just like a science fiction movie or a dystopian, Armageddon type of world view. I was uncomfortable beyond words watching this unfold. The members' gazes were fixed on the screen, while now and then loudly applauding and whooping to some remark made about "the ORGS" and the evil-doings of pharmaceutical companies, politicians, law-makers, medicine, and I think even education took a hit. Their enthusiasm was fanatical and manic. It took about a week to get the experience off my mind, it was that troubling to me. Luckily for me, I'm a born skeptic and I am not easily swayed by anyone else's thinking, so I didn't fall victim to it. My ego doesn't need it. My needs for "something" to follow are low, since I don't buy into any kind of religion, not for any reason. I'm satisfied with myself and my own pursuits in this life. For LOTS of reasons I reject religion of any kind since I believe that human beings can have a "relationship" with or rather, "regard" for the greatness of life without the need of an intermediary to "get you there". Where would that be, anyway? I simply believe that we can achieve wisdom, learning and goodness by living with good morals and ethics. And we can learn those things on our own. No magic, no potions, no "blessings", no rituals, no congregations. I'm not seeking some magical transformation, imagining myself and the world imbued with stardust and angel breath. Just the here and the now. Imagine no religion. Once upon a time there was none, and early humans figured it out. We can too.

*****​ I guess if I am an Atheist troll then you are a Christian troll, right? How is it different? Christianity is based on a book, just like Scientology. The only difference is that Scientologist's actually know who wrote their book. As far as your examples of Atheist rulers who did bad things goes.. Their motivations were not religious, they were political. It wouldn't matter, though, because for your 2 examples of Atheistic wrong-doing, there are a million that could be brought up regarding things done in the name of religion. You have been brain-washed into thinking that Atheism is a bad thing. I know because I was once like you. If you would read your Bible you would see it for what it is; a monstrosity. Your example of North Korea is a poor one being as though they have little to no crime rate, and though I do not agree with their dictatorship (nor do any other Atheists that I know), they do live peacefully. It's not like their leader is murdering people every day. It sounds like you are generalizing all Atheists into an evil categorey. I know that's not your fault, by the way. If you would take the time to get to know some of us you would see that we are not evil, not do we want to take over the world. We are also not a 'cult' because Atheism is not a religion. Believe it or not, Atheists are more giving than most Christians. Anyway, as I said before, believing in Scientology is no different than believing in the Bible. It's just not.

***** I have to disagree with you. Those doing bad things in the name of religion are not breaking commandments. They are following the laws of their 'book', like any real Christian would do. Stoning women to death in the middle east for ridiculous reasons is, in fact, in that horrible book they worship, as it is, to some extent, in yours. I do not admire Kim Jong Un I simply stated that the crime rate over there is pretty low, while here we have people bombing abortion clinics and murdering doctors, in the name of religion. Atheists don't believe that the universe 'just happened'. There is EVIDENCE supporting the Big Bang. Scientists don't know how it happened, yet, but that is no reason to fill the void with an imaginary friend. Do some research for yourself. Weigh the evidence. Ask yourself, is it more likely that the EVIDENCE is right or that this book that was written thousands of years ago, by who knows, is? Anyone that believes a magical man made the universe is delusional. There are tons of stories that pre-date the Bible with nearly identical stories, why doesn't anyone believe that those books are true? Because they're not, that's why. There are some pretty horrible religious people in this world, but am I judging you for what they have done? No. It's funny that you are the so-called Christian, yet you judge me based on your knowledge of people who died years ago. You, sir, have proved MY point.

I see my children's schoolfriends who are from Scientology families gradually disappear from the local schools into Sea Org, and generally they are pretty weird kids. Can't blame them though, obviously. My doors are open to anyone, but they do gradually sort kf drift away from "normal" families as they grow up. Its sad and horrible to see how polarising it all is.

This is tragic and heartbreaking. May the peace and hope of Christ be with these enslaved people of Scientology, may these chains be broken and these people leave the cult.

I remember visiting Washington DC as a college student and some Scientology people stopped me and asked me to complete a survey so I did and then they wanted me to go around the corner to their "church" but they wouldn't tell me what kind of church it was. They held me there against my will for quite a while. I was able to get out and run from them but it was very scary. I didn't know they were Scientologist, they never identified themselves but I saw it on the building. It was one of the scariest experiences I've ever had. Why would anyone be attracted to this cult?

Some people are very weak & so needy that the tiniest bit of attention from anyone or any group (especially a sick, sorry bunch of manipulators like the warped Scientologists) is like water to a thirsty soul who's been lost in a burning desert.

She is an amazing mother. That's true love for your child and family in the face of abuse, torture and gaslighting on a scale I've never heard.

Why would you be afraid to leave a job where you work 24/7 and 18 hours a day making $40 a week????This woman has her head on straight and I hope that currently, she has rebuilt her life.

when will this crazy cult end? Seriously..does no one go on the internet before joining? I get that the children of parents who are already in...can't do much. BUT new join-ees?

It's off topic but that is the most perfect enuniciation of English words you'll ever hear. Plus she is gifted with a vocal tone that is as pleasant as it gets. Just a sidebar observation. The content regarding Scientology: superb!

It's been 18 years since this interview. That baby is an adult I sure hope she isn't in Scientology. Further I hope that her mother, who is an exceptional woman, found great happiness, and got an advanced degree. She's fabulous!

What hat a beautiful little girl she has! At least she has that worth/value from loss of family-which really, they are missing out on being around that little girl. Very sad. I hope they can get reunited as a close family.
