Ex Scientology Executive Discusses Treatment of Children

I advise everyone to watch this. Notice that she states parts of her memory is hazy I have read and watched many interviews of other members that say the same. The child labor practices are absolutely criminal. The fact that they break up families is disgusting. This lady is very brave for coming forward.

The ship she was on has been reported to contain asbestos that is why it cannot make port in the US. They take the members passports so they cannot leave by all accounts it is unlawful. They have held underage children on these ships for years at a time.

Below are accounts of what the SEA Org is from former members.



For those who talk about brainwashing scientology has it down pat. Notice they have their own lingo that is key in brainwashing.

The second part is there if you watch on YouTube.

This has got to be one of the most disgusting scams they are not a religion they are a Cult.

like all religions it has been corrupted.
the enslavers will not allow the truth to come out.

Sea Org members sign one-billion-year contracts with the church, in exchange for which they are given free room and board, and a small weekly allowance. They are allowed to marry, but must relinquish their membership if they have or want to raise children.

1 billion years..

I can hear daffy duck woo hoo'ing in the distance after reading that....

How has it "been" corrupted? Sea Org is almost as old as the cult itself.

Oh lawdy what some people will believe if they try to convince themselves enough...

The Sea Org was established on 12 August 1967 by L. Ron Hubbard, the science fiction writer and church's founder, initially on board three ships, the Diana, the Athena, and the Apollo. In 1971, it assumed responsibility for the ecclesiastical development of the church, and in particular for the upper levels of its training, known as Operating Thetan or OT levels

From people who have managed to leave..

What's wrong with the Sea Org, and why do critics oppose it?
Critics believe that the Sea Organization is one of the most abusive groups in the world. The abuses that go on daily in the Sea Org are all that more egregious because, due to Scientology's religious status, law enforcement is reticent to investigate. Here are just a few aspects of Sea Org life, taken from hundreds of personal testimonials from ex-Sea Org members, that are decried by critics:
Sea Org members are not permitted to have children while working for the organization. Couples who get pregnant are either pressured to abort the baby, or they must leave. Often, these people have been in the Sea Org so long, they have nowhere to go, no resume outside of Scientology, no job experience, no finances, no property, and no non-Scientology friends.
Anyone who leaves the Sea Org without permission is declared a Suppressive Person by the Church of Scientology, and is ostracized from family, friends, and loved ones. It is very difficult to get permission to leave the Sea Org, and one cannot simply quit and then walk out the door. The "approved" leaving process involves up to 3 years of hard physical labor, E-metered confessionals, social isolation and group pressure.
Sea Org members live in horrible conditions. Unmarried members never have rooms to themselves, regardless of age, but instead live in small rooms with 3-12 other members. Members are often denied proper sleep and are often forced to skip meals because of the pressures of the job.
Sea Org members are denied proper medical care. They are not provided health insurance, are not given sick days, and the Sea Org will not purchase their medicine for them. If a free clinic won't provide the medicine someone needs, the Sea Org management won't shoulder the costs. There are numerous cases of people who have become very ill in the Sea Org, or who had pre-existing medical conditions, and were not allowed to seek medical treatment.
Sickness is also treated as the fault of the sick person, because Scientologists believe that the only reason someone gets sick is that they are connected to a Suppressive Person. They believe that you can decide not to get sick. So when someone becomes ill, they are treated as though they have done something wrong by not "handling" the situation.
Because Scientology has religious status in many countries, labor laws do not apply to the Sea Org. Therefore, Sea Org members have no protection from long and abusive work hours. Many work 17-20 hours days because of the pressures of the job. Anyone who complains is treated as though they are "not getting with the program", "unethical", or "not on board". There are thousands of minors working under these conditions in the Sea Org.
Sea Org members rarely have more than a few hours off a week. Even during this off-time, they are not permitted to go far from the compound where they live and work. If managements decides that they have not worked hard enough, they are not allowed time off for Christmas, New Years, birthdays or national holidays.
As only married members get rooms to themselves, many children who join the Sea Org marry very young - sometimes at 15 or 16 years of age - just so that they can have a room to themselves.
Sea Org members do not have their own phone numbers (unless they are allowed a cell phone), may not watch TV, are not allowed to own a personal computer with internet connections, and are only infrequently allowed to watch pre-approved movies.
Spouses and family members in the Sea Org rarely see each other. The Sea Org management reserves the right to ship different family members off to work in other countries or areas without any approval from the spouse. Husbands may be sent away from their wives, mothers may be sent away from their children, etc. If the family complains, they are punished.
Families who have members in the Sea Org and other members who are not in the Sea Org rarely see each other. Mothers and fathers with children in the Sea Org may not call them directly, but must call the organization and ask to speak with them.
Letters that Sea Org members write to their families, and letters that they receive from the outside, are screened by Sea Org censors for "entheta" (unhappiness, negativity) before they are passed on. Anyone complaining of unhappiness in the Sea Org in their letters is disciplined, and the letter is not delivered. If a family member sends a letter to someone inside expressing concern about the conditions there, the censor pressures the intended letter recipient to "handle" the sender, often with a monitored phone call in which they are made to say how happy they are, and that everything is going fine.
If a Sea Org member commits a punishable offense, they are sent to the RPF, or Rehabilitation Project Force, which is a sort of boot camp for "bad" Sea Org members. People on the RPF may only eat the food left over after the other SO members have eaten, may not speak to a Sea Org member unless spoken to, are not allowed to walk (they must run everywhere), are not allowed holidays, receive even less pay than SO members, and are required to do hard manual labor for long hours. People can be assigned to the RPF for up to 10 years.
Members are put under tremendous psychological pressure. They are expected work as hard as need be without complaint, sacrificing food, sleep, family, and off hours. Often the things they are asked to do are beyond the realm of human possibility, and yet they are criticized for not getting these things done, even when they've tried as hard as they possibly can. Many Sea Org members who leave cite this as one of the most debilitating aspects of the Sea Org - they work and work and work, and yet their boss tells them it is never good enough. Their bosses, of course, are under exactly the same kind of pressure from their bosses, who are under the same from theirs, and so forth.

Every once in a while I look on YouTube for anything new about them they manage to get more stuff pulled than you can imagine. They actually have groups that do nothing but damage control for them. Anonymous recently put out a video about them and no matter what I try I can’t access it. They have more power than anyone can imagine. I think they are the only group that has successfully infiltrated the FBI Hubbard’s wife went to prison for it.

Gawd! The more I read about this group, the more diabolical and useless they appear. They prey on the weak under the guise of making them feel elite and superior. They rip apart families, bleed pocketbooks, drain people physically and emotionally, and abuse people on every level possible.

This may not be well known outside of the medical professions, but many of the practice management groups are fronts for Scientology.. The big tip off is if you see any reference to 'management by statistics' or 'Hubbard technology'. You can google WISe businesses and find a long list. They hook doctors and dentists in under the guise of helping them build a business, then they access your books, and know how much money is being drawn in, then they prescribe copious amounts of auditing sessions for you and your family and even staff. Anyone that questions your new found business advisors are deemed suppressive persons and forced out of your life.

I know one person whose father (a dentist) joined a Scientology front practice management group. The wife and kids still living at home were forced to join and audit. The kids at college were deemed suppressive persons and their parents were forbidden to contact them. Eventually the dad got tired of seeing tens and tens of thousands of dollars leave his bank account and he left the organization. The wife was brainwashed to stay in the organization though. She was moved to one of their compounds in California, the organization made sure that she donated her divorce settlement to them, leaving her without any recourse. She was not allowed to accept phone calls from any of her children except one- .she isn't allowed to see her grandchildren.

No one can convince me that this group isn't evil.

Me thinks it wasn't corrupted, but started out in the shadow. And those kids are not obliged by any contract, they're all null and void.

The problem is that they are brain washed into believing they are. When I say brain washed that is exactly what I mean. Of course a billion year contract has no legal bearing but how is a 12 or 13 year old supposed to know that after being sleep depraved and coerced into signing one. There is video on the net where they have been recorded tackling people (not kids) as they try to escape their compounds.

This is a case where the government should intervene and they have tried however the organization is very good with intelligence gathering and always seems to know ahead of time when they are going to be inspected and that information comes from many former members some that were high up in the organization.

There are some countries that have revoked their religious status and kicked them out of their country for human rights issues.
