A few things I believe about Scientology: 1. L. Ron Hubbard was a con man and this was the ultimate con. He laughed all the way to the bank. 2. Dave Miscavige is an egomaniac and he beats his employees. 3. Dave's wife has been missing for over a decade, only heard from through a lawyer, and I...
When I got to the 50% mark, it dawned on me that I was definitely reading this book due to the story unfolding and not for the writing quality. Much like Leah Remini's Troublemaker, the writing can come off as juvenile or amateurish due to Hill's sketchy educational background (best guess is she has...
I always thought Scientology was silly...but I also thought it was harmless. My way of thinking is you can believe whatever the hell you want so long as it makes you happy or a better person, and that you don't use those beliefs to harm others in any way. Then I saw the documentary, Going Clear, a...
What a surprisingly great book. I love reading about cults, and this one caught my eye, the great account of her journey into the depths of Scientology is truly fascinating. She tells her account of her time in Scientology in a straightforward, and lacking in bias towards either way. Just the facts,...
BEYOND BELIEF "BEYOND BELIEF: My Secret Life Inside Scientology and My Harrowing Escape" was a completely captivating and informative and told the story with compassion. The author Jenna MisCavige Hill is the niece of Scientology's Chairman of the Board or C.O.B. David MisCavige. The book revealed t...
This was recommended by a work colleague and, even though I’m not big on non-fiction, I decided to give it a go. Firstly, I’m glad I read the book because I now have a clearer view of Scientology and what it stands to achieve as a “religion”. It’s a huge shame that this form of systematic bullying i...
Pretty boring as it turns out- I'm just so easily duped into thinking that because something's secretive it must also be interesting. Really it's ust your typical brainwashing bs, but between it being free and my being sick in bed, I guess it wasn't a total waste of a few hours.
extraordinary book. this girl was put through a lot in her childhood but still found the strength to escape and have a family of her own. the fact that she stood up and the 'enough is enough' moments are my favourites.
THIS IS THE REVIEW!I know you're wondering why I'm shouting at you. I thought it'd be a nice way to start the review after reading this:"Are you hungry?" Diane asked."No," I replied."Good," Diane said as she marked my answer on her worksheet. "Are you tired?" she asked next."No," I replied."Good." S...
I recently finished reading Going Clear and wanted to read more about Scientology because it is absolutely amazing how much has been covered up about this pseudo-religion. Beyond Belief doesn't go into specifics about the actual philosophy and teachings of Hubbard. Instead, Hill poignantly relates h...
