  • I would love to see American press doing this.

  • I feel so sorry for the children born into this cult. Usually taken away from their families and coerced into being SOs in degrading conditions. Oh. Except for the celebrity children who get to enjoy the celebrity centers' shows and restaurants.

  • @jjin08 something is up with her story though. I study the law (U.S. law). Regardless of any contract, no one is allowed to imprison a person for such a long time, and no one can have absolutely no conditions or terms that allow the contract to end (in australian or U.S. law, IMO). Although she is probably right about all the scientology evils, there is probably more facts to the story that show why she stayed there so long. Scientology is too powerful, and it is cultish. People should get out.

  • Criminal, sad cult.

  • @sanityandpiece are you seriously suggesting she stayed on the ship for 12 years voluntarily...?

  • Strange - two of my mates joined Scientology last year and doing better in life now...

  • It seems like she is lying about "I couldn't leave the Sea Organization if I wanted to...". From what I know - it's voluntary.

  • $cientology is a criminal cult.

  • @crystallisethis Yeah, says the person who created a Youtube account just so they could comment on this video and nothing more.... Nice try asshole. Scientology is NOT a religion. Go fuck yourself.

  • Tom Cruise , and all the other scientology celebs are the best of why America is crumbling. Yezhov Miscavige is their Fuhrer, and they are his toadies. They follow a megalomaniac, standing in line to smell his ass . Ethan Suplee would slit his mothers throat for David Miscavige!!!!

  • Romana could of washed her hair for tv
