It's hard to understand teachings and philosophy of different religions. Some rejects the right to freedom. Like what happened to two married couples who were deprived of freedom. It's a brave thing for the Scientology defector to come forward, as they have a history of…shall we say, litigiousness. It seems Christine King Collbran had a heck of a time, as they made her and her husband pay them $10,000 to leave (more than a few payday loans worth)
