Scientology: Tory Speaks in Los Angeles - Part 1

[joeypolanski]

Over eight minutes in, and the speaker STILL hasn't taken the podium. Somebody get the hook and yank off Professor Nerdpack already!

[GREGSCOT]

Go skepticism and humanism!  Two -isms I like!

[jagara1]

The introduction was so long I decided to navigate away from this video.

I guess it could have been interesting to watch...

[groovebirdvalley]

If only there was a time slider at the bottom of the video

[jagara1]

I don't have the time to find the interesting parts in talks on every single youtube video I watch.

It is up to the speaker/editor to engage the audience from the beginning and not rely on the audience having to edit the talk themselves by using the slider.

[daveindublin1]

Tory is cool, a gr8 gal n sexy 2 (im 27 from dublin if your interested:-) haha gr8 work Im glad you got out I did the communication course and then did my background work n got off at the first stop, I took my girlfriend with me who wantd to go clear, Its creating its own reality which is very very dangerous and it has 2 be stopped. gr8 work by all involved and keep it up

[Canaderek]

The latest installment of SOK has been posted. Google "SOK Kneeophyte" for the Scientology parody everyone's talking about!

Featuring SOK's campaign against optometry and founder C. Spaught-Runn's invention, the "Eam-eater".

[aio976]

tryss,

WERE YOU LURED IN?

ARE YOU RESISTING CHANGE?

[Fair2k7]

her husband is a dick for doing that :|:|

[telekt]

Tory starts around 8:15 if you're only interested in her content.

[holydave]

Cheers mate!

[daniebelle81]

thank you because I was about to turn off this list of group stuff I don't know of or care about

[xxxild]

waiting for the guy to let Tory speak... ;) patiently.... well past six minutes is getting irritating...buffering or I would skip forward. Damn. Edit this thing willya! ;)

j/k almost...

[GetMeThere1]

Thanks for the heads up....I'm clicking my way past it--as fast as the video can load.

[tryss]

why don't you just check by clicking along the timeline you lazy bastard....

[GetMeThere1]

That's what "clicking my way past it" mean, moron.

[tryss]

it's called clicking backwards then lawl use some logic hahaha

[GetMeThere1]

Sorry. I didn't know you wrote the "Idiot's guide to YouTube..." and that you titled it after yourself.

[GetMeThere1]

I've seen trolls before. Never came across a petty troll though. Why not stop wasting my time, and using up space on an otherwise relatively important series of videos.

[tryss]

Why do you care what I think so much?

You obviously took some time to write a response and wasted more time lawl and why do u care about what i think so bad? if you didn't give a shit you'd just ignore me... evidently not LAWL PWNT

ps. go ahead and type your response, care bear :)

[CMO5569]

Skip Mr. Boring in the front end just get to the Tory the Brave at 8:15 believe me I just did you a big favor.

[janfu79]

I watched the whole beginning and noticed your comment 8:27...I cried a little.

anyone to even join scientology is a joke, you all need help to even think this kind of thing is real. Hey I have one for you all. Im a man but I talked with my dog and he said he is jesus. We need your money and then we can show you the way. It starts at only 5 easy payments of 500 bucks. send your money to 1122 burns st. paul mn. 55106

[mikemikemofo]

did you get my $ yet?

[derekwilliams1982]

Still not convinced.

[NicNasty1981]

You need to dig deeper, you need to find out about the harassment, the disconections, the suicides, the forced abortions, the child slavery, the Rpf, suspected murders etc etc.

You shoult check out the paulette cooper testimony watch?v=JvXozEshc2Q

Heres a quick vid featuring ex-scientologists

watch?v=c5chreUQpho

[derekwilliams1982]

Yeah, I'm familiar with most of the anti-scientology stuff out there. I fully understand the destructive nature of the organization. Just the same, there is much I've gotten from listening to the LRH lectures.

[NicNasty1981]

Well its good that you got something positive, but LRH did get his information for many different sources. owes much to early Freudian ideas. For example, LRHs "Reactive Mind" obviously derives from Freud's "Unconscious". The notion that this mind thinks in identities comes from Korzybski's General Semantics.Initially, before deciding that he was the sole source of Dianetics and Scientology, Hubbard acknowledged his debt to these thinkers. Auditing and the offer techniques come from Pavlov and

[NicNasty1981]

William Sargant.

LRH goes 2 great lengths 2 vilify psychiatry but If u read into these guys also American psychiatrists Grinker & Speigel and English psychiatrist William Sargant and you'll see where he gets his ideas from.

13heathens has done loads of videos going thru his books but heres 1 brief vid on his Philosophy watch?v=i_rph_dgChQ

When it comes to psychiatry/psycology theyre both open to scrutiny by 10s of 1000s & publish their papers openly

Plus theyve had 50 years of growth

[KidsWithGuns1992]

Yeah insanity.

[yuothineyesasian]

As nasty said, Hubbard was skilled at renaming and reinterpreting ideas already investigated. Look up the interview of harlan ellison and robin williams... Many who knew hubbard in the early days agree that he succeeded in his goal to create a religion, which he voiced as his financial gold mine. Harlan Ellison Robin Williams Interview.

[derekwilliams1982]

I am aware of L. Ron Hubbard's plagiarism. But the way I see it, he did nothing different that Joseph Smith did in creating new scriptures from his careful study of the Old and New Testaments. Mormonism has guided the lives of millions of adherents despite many of the more destructive actions of Mormon pioneers. It's the same with Scientology.

[yuothineyesasian]

Did you look up the interview? I bet not. It would be worthless for you to bring up another religion as I am an atheist. For fact, the mormons and scientology are the religions of totalinarism that still exist prevantly in America, but scientology is by far the worst of the two.

[derekwilliams1982]

Yes, I did. Just the same, I have gotten much from reading the Dianetics and Scientology books he wrote. They are improving my life. You really do not have to join the church in order to get much from the Tech. The way I see it, most Anonymous members have not even bothered to read the books. Why protest something you have not even investigated?

[gabberis]

we do not protest CoS, we protest its nefarious methods in luring and keeping followers, we protest its attempts to silence the critics, we protest its policy of disconnection. We do not protest Xenu, we do not protest thetans, we do not protest your technologies. They are your beliefs and you are welcome to keep and spread them as long as you market it using truth, not deceit.

[DEREKinNYC]

Fair enough!

(derekwilliams1982)

[encliticcopula]

Why don't you or any other scientologist just tell us what it's about? Specifically, I mean? If you tell us what the whole thing is about before we're ready, will we get pneumonia and die?

[draagon66]

Space Operas is the basis.

Extracting money from the gullible is the purpose.

It doesn't take much research.

Thereafter, it's threats and actual misdeeds against anyone who criticizes the system.

Be aware.

[derekwilliams1982]

I'll keep it in mind. Thanks for your concern!

[warriorprincess65]

5stars

[olihill101]

good for you mate, what was the turning point? whats the best way of damaging such a dangerous cult?

[diehard1384]

good for you tdp im glad if it has made you feel better i was actually thinking of starting my own religion based on the fast of the pyramids were put here about 25 billion years ago by the great being ect ect ect and anyway you pay me 3000 dollars and i will teach you to feel better than scientology can make you

[TDP788]

scientology has done nothing but improve my life...you dont have to pay money or attend classes.. i have read most of the books for free haha...and i still have an unbroken family, and i dont think i am about to be killed...dont judge figure it out yourself

[Lam1ngton]

The auditors have really done a job on you haven't they.

[zzzxtreme]

it is true that it makes some ppl's life better

though one must not agree with having celebrity section of the church or having to pay plenty to achieve OVXVII

[xBLiTZxKRiEGx]

scientology has done nothing but lie...you do have to pay money and attend classes.. i have read most of the books for free haha...and thats the beginning of the brainwashing, and i dont think i am about to be indoctrinated ...dont judge figure it out yourself.

[MissCheekyCow]

clever woman

[deneco4]

no drugs in scientology? count me out!

[riveroose]

LOL

[King1821E]

I'm glad you stated how Dianetics and Scientology saved you from a crazy wild drug addicted life and helped you lead a happy successful life.

[putittogether]

On addiction for another....LOL

[putittogether]

That comment was for King1821E

[beverins]

Great Information on Scientology! Google for Clambake and Truth-seeker

[cheapy2006]

proximodiz is an apologist for scientology.

[RAQDES]

heroine

[yeldawk]

What a shame that the Lisa McPherson Trust disolved. Even more disturbing is that if you go to the former web site you are directed to a LRH tribute page. What a slap in the face!

[XENUTV]

That's not true. the old site was lisatrust dot net which is now a page for some financial trust crap. The archived version of the old LMT website still exists at lisatrust dot bogie dot nl.

[yeldawk]

I followed the link at Operation Clambake, lisamcphersontrust dot net and that has a link to a site that states,

"L Ron Hubbard Tribute

scientologists pay tribute to L Ron Hubbard here. See what they say"

Check out the page for yourself, again, what a slap in the face!

[AradiaMagick]

I went to that, unbelievable. Makes you wonder alot.

[riveroose]

lisamcpherson dot org has everything that the old site did...right?

[itsallaloadofbs]

$cientologists can stamp their feet all they like. This whole rotten, criminal, scamming cult is unravelling under the close scrutiny of the internet. They can control their brainwashed followers, but they can't control freedom of thought and speech on the net.

The truth is coming to get them. I salute you Tory.

[conkertheevilsquirre]

you and Mark are very brave and cool as hell. I lost hope for many people that believe in scientology. but you are proof that u can turn back when it gets too much. Good job turning it around. I have great respect for you.

[devilbear]

Tory, have you considered turning your story into a movie script? Nothing reaches the masses like a movie and the more who know your story the better.

[ExScientologist]

Tory is a fabulous speaker. Listen to all 5 parts. She is very bright and has a great sence of humor. Speaking out against Scientology takes great courage and can be very challenging as BBC's investigative reporter, John Sweeney found out. See BBC Panorama "Scientology and ME".

[MrWicked15]

This bitch is awesome!

[dumpypotatoes]

This lady is really cool.. I love listening to her talk she's so funny

[virtualathleet]

DOWN WITH $ientology. DEATH TO PRINCE XENU

[hennybonny]

I think its prince xenu is like satan or something in the $ientology religiol, so I would rather say " long live prince xenu" if what I know is right then.

[TimeForTimer]

OPERATION CLAMBAKE

[pierregarcia]

traitor

[putittogether]

lol

[robrobrobrob888]

lol its funny because they take themselves so seriosuly, and everyone else just laughs. p.s i sold acid to L.Ron Hubbard.

[muscley66]

I hope all the scum that comprises your cult dies. All of you. You all are fucking garbage. Worthless people...every last one of you.

[Lam1ngton]

What about all the victims ? The people who have been sucked in and brainwashed by it ? Do you want them to die ? Or would you rather clarify and perhaps say you mean the organizers, the people that run the whole sorry show ?

[SidneyXda]

Agree, they use these dumb people ..chew them up and spit them out ..to rott. They are the coldest ..worse than the nazi's

[bnye1991]

One name-Lisa McPherson. Scientology ruined her life

[linuxguy999]

Scientology ruined her life? No, they ENDED it!

[g12er]

Good presentation. Its interesting to see how Tory's thinking has changed. Compare this presentation/interview with earlier ones. The longer she's been out of $cientology, the clearer her thoughts and thinking are.

[silence1984]

only a fucktard would join this fucking cult!

[fla0303]

thank you for this post.

[Thraxfan54]

The Center for Inquiry is a great organization.

[nirvgardengod]

When was this talk given?

[XENUTV]

March 7, 2005

[PavDaGreek]

Does anyone know if Tom Cruise was forced to divorce Nicole for the same reasons? I want to tell you I admire your ability to go against these thugs. Have they ever threatend you or your family? Good luck and stay safe.

[Lam1ngton]

You know that's an interesting question about Tom Cruise. It wouldn't suprise me really.
