    Jenna has been so sweet and kind every time we've met, and she is so small and soft-spoken. Hard to imagine her as a hard-core dedicated Scientologist with mean-girl energy. I am so sorry you went through all of that Jenna, but I am glad you have found your authentic self!

    Thats the worst thing that Scientology does. Taking you money and time is one thing but they took away alot of my kindness and compassion by invalidating me for it. I was made wrong for being kind and i was trained into being an ice queen too. I still am not myself because the self that i was invalidated and pushed down.

      @ You had a pretty tough childhood. The thing your parents didn’t understand is that when you decide to have kids, everything else comes second except God. L R Hubbard wasn’t God. It’s ok to devote your life to a cause, but only if you don’t have any other responsibilities. Sadly, Scientologists don’t see the reality-nothing on the planet is better since Scientologists started clearing the planet. Things are getting worse everyday. Bravo to you for understanding what it means to put your kids and family before Scientology. You truly have a mother’s instinct. Something your mom just didn’t have.

  • @ariannewdnotbe
    @ariannewdnotbe 20 днів тому +8

    I have 2 questions:
    Why has Child Protective Services in the various locations in the US where Scientology children are located not intervened regarding:
    A. Quality of education, supervision of vulnerable children's’ needs for nurturing, & work requirements?
    B. Since Sea Org members can’t have children, where are new Sea Org recruits coming from? I gather that new memberships for Scientology are at a rock bottom, how is the cult surviving? This ties into the issue of whether there are enough zealots willing to pay for all the courses.
    NB: My former next door neighbors were Scientologists; the husband worked at the DC location. When moving, it looked like a huge # of CDs & books for courses were thrown away. They had divorced & she appeared to be moving on from it all, although I can’t be sure. I did see a huge pile of those items on her porch in disarray.

    • @jillwklausen

      Watch Leah Remini's multi-part documentary on Scientology and it will make sense. Scientology deploys armies of people to relentlessly harass anyone who tries to regulate them in any way. It's how they eventually bullied, threatened, and intimidated the IRS into giving them tax exempt status. They are so relentless, they make people's lives living Hells. It's why the cops don't arrest any of them for any of the abuse they inflict on people. It's why they take David Miscavige's word for it without any investigation that Shelley is still alive, when not a soul has spoken a word to her in years. It is all VERY sinister.

    Thank God that you got out of that situation. It has to be harrowing to live within the confines of the cult on a day-to-day basis. As you were speaking, I was wondering, yet again, what it is that the people who are part of this believe they are contributing, and with any beneficial community service that actually is going on, WHY does the a-b-use and dictatorial leadership style have to be part of the plan?

    This is absolutely fascinating to me gettiing such a unique direct first-hand account of the inner workings and org structure of Scientology sea org.
    From the way you speak and terminology you use what struck me as a programmer of code is that it's very much like you're managing a system and computer program rather than dealing with people! Debugging is a common practice when programs malfunction or throw errors. Error codes would be 'out points'. Writing 'programs' would be adding 'sub routines' to the main program to fix errors or malfunction in the program operation. Heh.
    This is also very much a corporate environment 'systems management' approach which you wouldn't expect to find in a church or religion but rather a large corporation (which is what I think Scientology really is, a business pretending to be a religion) focused on productivity performance and profitability. Anyone who has studied management (as I did at Uni) will find this systematic management approach very familiar.

    Did you ever find that the E Meter didn't work? How important are these scores in THE CMO or the cadet programs?

    Hi Jenna, when you were in CMO, did you receive the same level of luxury as your mom?

    Did your Mom ever leave? And as for the ranks above CMO, what would you say they feared? I know fear is probably suppressed, so - what would anger them?

    I think the “why” they called you mister is unfortunately just sexism 😢 I’m sorry you had to grow up like that
