  • Remastered for a new generation in 4K! In 2000, four Scientologists who had reached the level of OT VII (Peter Alexander, Tory Christman and Greg & Debra Barnes) sat down to discuss the difficulties they faced on Scientology's upper levels.

    This was my first honest talk with other OT's, in 2000, after escaping out of Scientology...after 30 years "in". 🌹2024: Scientology is STILL trying to stop their critics & ex- Scientologists & failing utterly.
    "EPIC FAIL" 👍🌹🤗

      I have stayed in touch with Greg, and he is doing great! He and Deborah soon after this divorced. Peter I do not know about, either .💖👍🩵

      2024: One thing I need to clarify: I did *think* I had "huge wins on OT 3". However, the fact is Scientology (via L Ron Hubbard who wrote me telling me to 'handle/get rid of Epilepsy & we'll see you back in the Sea Org then"), constantly insisted I get off my medicine for Epilepsy.
      So after OT3, I figured I'd now "handled/gotten rid of" Epilepsy. So I stopped taking part of my medication that controlled seizures, completely. Thus:
      I went into Status Epileptic...multiple Grand Mal seizures. I called a friend who I knew was on the fence & would take me to the hospital vs miles away to a Scientology Dr.
      At Morton Plant hospital my Drs told me once I came back to consciousness:
      "5 more minutes and you would have been DEAD".😎

    1:10..."I found out my church was LYING to me...." Deborah Barnes .
    " Why are we when "in", as Scientologists ~always~ fighting?" (Me)❤ Note: Tory Bezazian was my married name. Soon after this, my now ex- husband divorced me, stayed "in" Scientology & re- married another cult member. My name is Tory Christman 🌹
