			<description><![CDATA[Thank you so much for this. I also regrettably had the "opinion" that people not in the Sea Org or Scientology were just "wogs", blind and dumb. Their opinions did not matter unless they needed to be manipulated to suit the purposes of the church. Imagine my shock when I finally left, began living in the real world and interacting with real people. I was overjoyed to learn that the large majority are genuine, compassionate, polite and caring human beings. What a learning process. I learned to love people and to tell them that I did. This was at age 42, are you kidding me? I probably say "I love you" more in a month now than I did my entire 19 years in the Sea Org. Fortunately, and after some time, I was able to reconnect with some "wog" friends that I made while I was in the SO. These are some of my dearest friends who always liked me for ME, not the church that I worked for or what I represented back then. Thank god for that! They have proven to be far more intelligent, caring and loyal than I ever imagined.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Flying Fortress - a fine sample of human race. Thank you for sharing your point of view in all this, I find it so interesting to see how our mess is viewed by you. Part of DMs culture is to somewhat sneer at non-Scientologists as a race (when it suits him) and I must admit I personally employed such an attitude in one degree or another, while in the SO. The diverse and bright beings who list this planet their home quickly brought me back from that false Planet Arrogance I had flown into. I am way happier here, our home.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[All tyranny needs to gain a foothold is for people of good conscience to remain silent. Thomas Jefferson Thank you for your understanding and care, enough to speak up and encourage others to speak up against tyranny, no matter the form or the setting of that tyranny, it is nonetheless tyranny. No person of good conscience should remain silent...that is wise advice. Eileen]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[This is heartwarming news, Flying Fortress. I know that many people have suffered atrocities that seem incredible yet they are still unknown to the majority of the parishoners. These voices of truth are starting to be heard. I am glad that non-Scientologists are hearing them as well and hope that more and more parishoners follow their voice of doubt and seek the truth. Scientology is an honorable, even magical [censored]iloso[censored]y but in order to keep it this way it must be based on truth. Flying Fortress, it is even unbelievable to those of us who have been part of the church for many years outside the s[censored]ere of Int Management. Again, thank you for your encouragement and interest.]]></description>
