While sorting through threads on a mailing list I'm on, I came across a thread about Scientology. I had heard of it, but never known anything about it. I followed a link to Operation Clambake. I followed more links, just randomly looking, and I found this. It's a memorial page dedicated to Lisa McPherson, a victim of Scientology. I continued looking through the site, and I followed the links to the most graphic of her autopsy photographs. I felt like someone had punched me in the stomach. The only thing I could think was a short prayer. "Please, please don't let this happen to anyone else." Unfortunately, I don't have that kind of power. I live in America, where we have freedom of religion. This is a good thing. I don't want that taken away. Therefore, I won't say, "Shut down the "church" of Scientology," however much of a good thing that would be. The following are links to places where you can find out more information about why so many people are anti-Scientology. | |||
The Lisa McPherson Trust. OFFLINESonline: Freedom from Scientology Testimonies of supporters and critics of Scientology and Dianetics. To be fair, I'm linking to the Scientology website. Nice and innocent and helpful sounding, aren't they? Scientology Home Page. | |||
