Hi Colorado! Perhaps you spoke with Anonymous while we were in Denver, or perhaps you just saw our website on a flier, card, or a sign. Whatever your reason for being here, I’d like to give you a starting point on one of the topics that drives many of us to protest the Church of Scientology.
First, I’ll leave it to you to use Google for your own research. Try a search on scientology rpf. You might notice pretty quickly that something seems wonky about the results… Brainwashing? Prison camps? In this country, the United States? It seems far fetched, doesn’t it? Read the content at some of those links to get an idea of what’s going on.
Next, maybe you’ll be interested in some first-hand accounts. A local ex-Scientologist Bruce Hines spent a good long time at a Scientology prison camp. Here’s part of his story. Another ex-Scientologist, Jeff Hawkins, wrote a much more in-depth account of the years he spent in a Scientology prison. Here’s his story.
Or, maybe you’re interested in talking to some ex-Scientologists about the Church of Scientology’s prisons. There are plenty of people willing to talk about their experiences over at the Ex-Scientology Kids Forums. Many of the members there grew up in the cult, many other were at some point members, and still more are people just like you who got curious about the rumors of prison camps in our country.
Next, maybe you don’t care so much, or have other worries, and you move on. Or, maybe you think light should be shed on these revolting prison camps, and you want to get involved. If the latter is true, head on over to our forums. You can post without registering, if you’re worried about anonymity. That’s where we plan everything, and that’s the place to get started.
Thanks for reading this, and for listening to us long enough to lead yourself here.
Links to a scholarly investigation from a University of Alberta, Canada professor who has prepared international reports on Scientology for the European Human Rights
Commission among other co$ topics. This is his 2nd report on the RPF.
He’s on the SP list!
(All of his $ci reports are well worth reading)
Good site!
