Dear Scientology

I'm done.

Dear Scientology,

I am done! Done being a victim. Done being exploited for your gain. Done giving money that I don't have for services and books that don't improve my life. I am done being brainwashed into thinking that a life of Scientology is the only way to live.

The scars may never truly heal, yet I have come to realize that manipulation isn't the path to eternal salvation. I've been blinded by a way of thought that never really helped. I craved a change, a new perspective on how to get better. All I received was a false hope of improvement and chastisement for what I knew was right.

I no longer want to fight for a cause that destroys and unleashes havoc. Tearing families apart with no realistic just cause. Aborting gifts of life amongst the elite serving members. Denying my right to know the truth should never be a sacrifice that has to be made. My personal integrity and self-worth is far more important than your monetary gain. You preyed on my weaknesses so you can have control over me. Told me lies that things will be better if I only returned. I am finished with having my vulnerabilities documented to be used against me.

I am done not being able to invest my time in what really matters the most to me. The life I had before was paradise compared to the hell I endured at your hands. I was too curious for my own good and allowed myself to be robbed of the remaining sanity I had left. I have been burnt beyond recognition by your fires for the last time.

I am done caving into the unnecessary pressures that don't allow me to be free. The only redemption I obtained is when I escaped the dungeon Ideal Org. I don't need this type of isolation from the world in my life. I've been a prisoner long enough of other things that you don't need to be added to the list.

Quite frankly, I don't care if I'm missed. I was a fool to take part of your illusive and unrealistic game. I was nothing more than one of multiple pawns on a chess board that is never used. I'm glad I got out when I did because this so-called "wog world" isn't as catastrophic as you make it appear.

I never saw such tyranny or self-disrespect in my life. To deny an individual to truly live is to forsake a life lived with dignity. I have accepted that it is I alone that has the most control of my fate.

You may have thought you had the fraudulent debt that I would never pay off all figured out. This is simply me saying that the debt is null and void.

I refuse to be damned to a life filled with eternal uncertainty. Your lucrative religious scheme to get victims unaware has gone too far.

I find it cute that you think you can persuade me to come back. Even cuter that you believe me when I tell you that I will be coming in. I am doing everything I can to avoid your brainwashed spawn. I think it's strange how you pursue into unfathomable fiction.

I am amazed at how many got away before getting in too deep. To realize that you are more of a business than a religion is terrifying. Your tactics for power and control are absurd. My truth is no longer yours to dictate. I am my own person that does not need religious corruption in my life.

I am finished, and am never returning!

Sincerely,

A Former Member Who Now Knows Better
