Has anyone here ever been in a cult?

I would subject myself to that in the first place willingly :dahell:

But it's cool u got out tho
Yeah, I wanted to see how strong I really was (plus it was a great article). Thankfully I had read up on charismatic leaders and they tricks they use, so I had a bit of help there. They almost got me though. :merchant:

Oh charm you into self-disclosing personal information so that you wouldn't cross them. When was the last time you masturbated, have you looked at gay porn. shyt like that. They know way too much information from back when I had issues at home.

Scientology is not to be fukked with. They brainwash like crazy. I'd be scared to be associated with them. After watching all these videos, it seems like they are REALLY good at doing their job. Having people leave their family, give up their fortune, become basically slaves, etc. I don't know if many are strong enough to withstand their pressure. They get you with that stupid machine that tests your thetons. You tell them your darkest secrets, supposedly in confidence, and then they say they'll tell everybody about them if you try to leave. Scientology is :merchant:

That's pretty much why I wanted to do it. I am an atheist, so I wanted to see what kind of tricks they have up their sleeve. Religion in general interests me, especially this freaky ass cult one.

Some of the self-help stuff helped me talk to women better, and with social interaction. I was an anti-social teen looking for a job when I first went in, now I'm a charming a$$hole, they teach you how to not take shyt so personal, handle conflicts etc. It's money-making culture that's the problem, they made us buy pointless books and don't focus on the good stuff. I don't consider myself a thetan or a ghost though lol.
Unfortunately I still get cacs coming to my door asking me if I'm interested in combing back for an auditing session. :francis: They're not going to leave me alone.

:dead: @the bolded. I swear, after watching Going Clear, I just can't believe that people get so into this shyt!! It's pretty amazing, actually. Back to my previous point, it's a little fascinating.

I'd be like, "last night, maybe today, and yes, I absolutely have watched gay porn" :skip: "what of it"? :skip:
