Can you believe this (Me and scientologists)
OP - December 18, 2009, 02:20 AM
I was in the city, waiting for a friend who was going to come down from Manchester to see me, it was freezing so I decided to head-off to the library, on my way there I was approached by two women who asked me if I knew anything about Scientology, normally I ignore anyone on the streets canvassing, but the whole Scientology thing in my head was like ok this should be interesting, so I told them I know little bits about Scientology then they asked me if I would be interested in learning more about it and how it could help me, and make me more successful, to cut the long story short, they asked me if I had 5 minutes to come into their office which was just round the street I needed to kill time so I said yes sure, anyway we went in and they asked me about my faith, I told them I am an atheist, and they asked me if I did not mind to fill out this sheet, on education level and job-title, and age so I did they started talking to me asking me what I did for a living what my hobbies were etc, just normal stuff they told me about them self how many kids they had, blah, blah - then they started talking about Scientology and awesome it was and how I'll me able to make lots of money just by clear thinking, and this booklet they had would help me,
anyway in the end they offered me the booklet and then fucking told me it costs ?15 pounds from the start I was playing along with them but when they sprung that shit on me, I was like "I'm sorry but, why would you be asking me to pay for this booklet is it not supposed to be free?" and they twisted this all around and started blaming me saying they don't actively look for people to join Scientology, and that they just did this for me as a "favour" to better my life, and how I betrayed their trust, and wasted everyone's time, eventually I started thinking I was in the wrong, but fuck that I was not paying ?15 for some book, so they basically shited on me and walked me out of the "office" anyway I fucked off to the library
they probably have me on their "evil people" list or some shit!
Thing I don't understand is, how the hell to they get people to join if they are asking them to pay for so stupid book, which is supposed to give insight!
Anyway had expriance with then IRL?
