Alanzo’s Biography: In and Out of Scientology & Anti-Scientology
Alanzo was a Scientologist for 16yrs. He left in the late 90’s & got fairgamed: fired from his job, followed by PIs & endured attempts by Scientology to destroy his business and his family.

How the Anti Cult Movement Harms Ex-Members

My senator from #Illinois, once again, expresses an anti-political party opinion in the interests of our country.
Maybe you people will someday realize that Illinois produces Americans who continually work to save our country.
