The lady who is the voice of Bart Simpson is a very very devoted Scientologist who has donated millions to the organization. The reference is because of that.
what has Christianity messed stuff up?...you mean churchianity and old school Catholicism. Alot of what you see on tv have nothing to do with christianity.
A religion must be judged by its founders life and teachings ...not by its "followers alone"...a "follower" can claim anything in the name of a religion..that doesn't mean they are following its teachings.
Christianity is following Jesus's teachings and life
ahh very well put.. i notice lots of "christians" behavior is often at times not very christlike, and at times even go against Jesus Christ's actual moral teachings..
makes me giggle when i see people claim religion and then manage to contradict themselves.
Im not so much a huge fan of The Bible
(written by MEN thousands of years before modern science)
..although there is a book called "The Faith and Moral Teachings Of Jesus Christ" and that one actually wasnt such a bad read...
Sorry, but I speak my mind, and say what I wish. What I wish to say now is that ANYTHING can be a cult--if cult practices and methods are a part of it.
It's too bad that simple concept is beyond your cognitive capacity.
As far as "your lord," he's yours, not mine, so I'm not inhibited in any way in saying anything I please about it/him. I see "your lord" as no better than CoS, and often a part of cult-like religions, as well.
Yeah, scientology is the worst.....but, apparently, it wasn't bad enough to totally kill of Tory's spirit. She's still a wonderful and warm human being! I'm glad she's out of that madness!!!
christianity is...and isn't....a cult. It all depends on how many cult-like methods your particular group uses.
Of course, the main cult-like thing about almost ALL religions is that children are raised to believe from babyhood. That's the most effective brainwashing possible.
So.....unless your christian group says "We don't discuss our religion AT ALL with our kids until they're 18" then, yeah, there's some cultish methods going on.
Death to whoever told her 'five more minutes' at 21:17 was it Mr. Boring Ant Burning Glasses Guy that bored us and burned Tory's first eight minutes. That guy is Epic Fail.
Wow!!! I thought escaping the clutches of mormonism was quite an ordeal. It doesn't hold a candle to this amazing story! Bravo Tory- thanks for this talk.
I love the fact she left this cult but was upset she went straight off to Chritianity (another cult)... An improvement but they're both just as mental... I wonder what the Christ cult was like when it was only a couple of decades old...? You don't need it Tory, you're a quality person so please stop looking for magic, it's in the eyes of every person, animal or tree to meet... It's rude to want more than this man, it's fucking excellent the way it is!!!!
Even though I am not a fan of Christianity, the negativity of your comment was not deserved. Look at all she's been through! She endured 30 years of brainwashing and suffering, and has emerged as a person with a strong, independent personality.
I wish I had only found out that Scientology just wasn't for me. But finding out that the people that I gave all that time, and money, and enthusiasm, are not nice people. It's hard to take. Just one small detail. This still bugs me - Ron put 'Sympathy' almost at the bottom of the tone scale, just a little up from 'Apathy'. Having sympathy for the suffering of your fellow human being means, in his eyes, that you are little more than dead. Not just physically dead, but spiritually dead.
Hi Tory. It's so good to see you posting here. You are such an inspiration to anyone who has been on the bridge and gotten off. I was only on it for two years but I know that you are telling it as it is. Thank you. You have a shining spirit
No wonder the agents of Scientology attack this lady so often. She knows many of their PR tricks and speaks her mind about the cult's abuses. Tory is living proof that Scientology is worse than you think. She and Mark Bunker (her video biographer) have given this criminal enterprise a one-two punch!
Awesome. I feel some of the comments she made applies to other religions as well. It was a really great speech, and this definitely needs to be sent to other scientologists. The lady is a champ, and I think she'll help people.
Tory, I've listened to every minute of your speach with great interest. I'm really happy you can now speak of it freely and with a pinch of humour. Your a wonderful person.
rambles? hell, i wish she had more time to talk. if anyone knows of an audio by her, please let me know. i have a few basic questions about the "religion", but basic answers aren't easy to come by. is there a "truth about scientology for dummies"?
She needs to do an audiobook because even though she rambles, everything is very interesting and amusing. The $cientology people at every airport? "We were just in the neighborhood."
very brave and wise words. But I just dont understand the attitude of "Well, scientology isnt bad in itself. Its just corrupted by its leaders and most of its practices are flawed".
Well, is not Scientology in its entirety flawed? Its te sum total of the warped fantasy of a madman. I think people are too generous in that regard.
Really informative... and a very entertaining talk. It really hits home when you see that seemingly normal, rational, and educated people can fall victim to these kinds of groups.
Great work, Tory, in spreading your message of the inner wickedness of Scientology through insider knowledge and plenty of humor. Hopefully the tide is turning and more people will continue to learn the truth - especially those that are still in the "church." Keep it up. You are a hero.
imagine the brain-washing and psychological abuse she must have endured! and now she rebukes the whole philosophy and ridiculing this foolish cult with such great humor...amazing

If you're speaking of the "wiccan until I was 29" response--it wasn't removed. I don't think XENUTV is a fan of censorship.
YT has a very poor comment framework. It's always best to go to "view all xxx comments"--and even then it's sometimes a mess.
But....I'm happy not to have useless forum arguments.
