DESCRIPTION:Please join us in San Francisco (and cities EVERYWHERE) for OPERATION 
 RECONNECT. A large protest at every Scientology "church" and official 
 office worldwide took place on the 10th of February, 2008. This was the 
 first major worldwide protest, with about 7000 people participating in at 
 least 108 cities worldwide. The second successful global protest was on the 
 15th of March, with at least 10,000 participants in 110 cities. Our next 
 protest, focusing on the "Disconnection" policy, is on April 12th. The name 
 of Operation Reconnect stems from the "Church" of Scientology's notorious 
 "Disconnection" policy, under which individuals within the cult are 
 forbidden contact with those whom the cult deems to be a threat to its 
 security. In most cases, these are merely people who are worried and voice 
 concerns about loved ones inside the cult. This policy is used frequently 
 by Scientology to separate families, creating a rift between those outside 
 Scientology and those trapped within it. This also serves the purpose of 
 removing any social supports an individual has outside the "Church," making 
 it more difficult for them to end their affiliation with this vicious and 
 wealthy organization. \n\nJoin us in San Francisco, Saturday 12 April, 11 
 am. . \n\nWHAT IS WRONG WITH SCIENTOLOGY? \n= Breaking family through its 
 doctrine of "disconnection" \n= Doctrine of "destroying utterly" what it 
 perceives as opposition to Scientology, through its "dead agent", and "fair 
 game" policies \n= Long track record of false imprisonment against its own 
 members = Fanatical, irrational, (and outright creepy) anti-psychiatry 
 doctrine \n= Doctrine of hard sell with no regards to the financial 
 well-being of people \n= Doctrine of infiltration to gain leverage to 
 spread its own worldview, and to shield against accountability \n= 
 Condoning lying to protect and further Scientology goals \n= Attack on free 
 speech, in order to keep people uninformed \n= A worthless "Personality 
 test" deceptively used for recruitment purpose \n= Practicing medicine 
 without a license, while deceptively describing itself as a science that 
 can cure disease, physical illnesses \n= Forcing its members to go through 
 mental and physical duress through the "Rehabilitation Project Force" in 
 order to coerce them to comply to Scientology doctrine \n= "Suppressive 
 Person" doctrine promoting hate and intolerance \n= Abusive treatment of 
 children \n= Its track record of using blackmail to prevent its own members 
 from leaving, speaking out \n= Track record of destroying evidences to 
 escape full accountability \n= etc. etc. etc.
