Hi all! 
Well here is my first post about me
, I've posted comments on other people's threads before.
I was going to wait until I had sent this to the DSA at the org but I figure he'll get it anyway if I post it here. Hi OSA!!!
So here it is:-

Dear Tojo,
Please accept this letter as official notification of my total resignation from the Church of Scientology. I am unable to remain connected to an organisation that claims to protect Human Rights then turns around and inhibits those rights.
Just prior to my leaving, OSA accused two of my closest friends of posting on an "anti-Scientology" website and informed me they had been declared. When I asked for evidence of this act I was told I could go to the AO and see the MAA, the data would be sent to her from OSA. On arrival at the AO the MAA told me she didn’t want to show me this “evidence” and I let her know that I was not prepared to disconnect from my friends without this. I also told her that I wanted to go and speak with my friends face to face, this is a friendship that is over 31 years old, and she told me that would be fine. I later received an email from the MAA asking me not to go and see them, by this time it was too late as I had already made arrangements and was not prepared to change them.
Whilst at FLAG I did the Ministers Course and learned the creed verbatim and I seem to recall it saying that, and I quote, “All men have the inalienable right to think freely, speak freely and write freely their own opinions, and to counter, utter or write upon the opinions of others,” ref “Creed of a Scientologist.” There is no addition to that line of the creed that says “unless that opinion is about Scientology.” As I see it, condemning people that voice their opinions is in direct conflict with the creed, especially when there is no physical evidence that the people being condemned are responsible for what was said/written in the first place.
One of the people accused was Jenni Gibbons and I know for a fact that she had never, at that time, written anything on any website on the internet. She has however, since being falsely accused and wrongly declared, done so and quite openly, stating her identity in the very first part of her statement. It turns out, from what I’ve read and heard, that this false accusation and damnation is not an uncommon occurrence, I wonder how many others have been declared on what is obviously dodgy evidence.
The above situation was the final straw and culminated in my leaving, but this was not the only out-point I had noticed within the “church.” My experience as an OOT at FLAG was full of out-points and was the starting point for all my doubts about being connected to the “church.”
I was not going to contact anyone from the “church” but decided that I should at least write a disconnection notice; please consider this letter just that. I wish no further communication from anyone representing the Church of Scientology.
THIS IS TRUE
Yours sincerely,
Cheryl Turner
