What prompted you to leave?
I was going to be sent to the RPF for what is called an out 2D situation.
Basically that means I violated one of the Dynamics and started a relationship with a person of the same sex.

Were you told that a guy called Xenu brought billions of people to earth in DC-8 planes and killed them with nukes 75 million years ago?

But do you think the idea that aliens physically identical to humans transported people to earth with DC-8 aircraft to be plausible?

What did the personality test consist of and what information did it yield?
Was this test something like what a psychic does, gives you some small nugget of info that intrigues you to pay a fee to find out more?
Why are they so against psychiatry? Was there something in LRH's past that made him despise this branch of medicine?
Why are they so secretive? When an organization fights so hard to keep information (or a movie loosely based) about themselves disseminated to the public it usually means that whatever they are hiding is not good.
Do you feel that you were brainwashed?
Take your time answering, and thanks for the opportunity to ask you questions.

The Church Of Scientology does not approve of same sex relationships.
You won't see them performing any gay weddings any time in the near future.
I found this a bit odd when you consider a thetan, (spirit, soul, etc...) is sexless without a body, but it was an issue with the Church.

Homosexuality is prehaps the workings of Xenu?
Doh?
The first dynamic, self, is the effort to survive as an individual, to be an individual and to fully express one’s individuality.
The second dynamic is the urge toward existence as a future generation. It has two components: sex and the family unit, including the raising of children.
The third dynamic is the urge to survive as a member of a group. A company, a political party, a church or a social organization are all examples of the third dynamic.
The fourth dynamic is the urge for survival of man as a species. All of the races of man together constitute the fourth dynamic.
The fifth dynamic is the urge to survive for all life forms — animal or vegetable and anything directly and intimately motivated by life.
The sixth dynamic is the urge for survival of the physical universe and reflects the drive of the individual to enhance the survival of all matter, energy, space and time –the component parts of the physical universe.
The seventh dynamic is the urge toward existence as a spiritual being.
The eighth dynamic is the urge toward existence as infinity. This is also identified as the Supreme Being. Thus, this dynamic can be called the infinity, or God, dynamic.

Beliefs are "free"
I can go to a Christian or Catholic church and gain the teaching for free.
