Llywelyn, C. (2015, June 23). Why I Left Scientology. Retrieved November 09, 2017, from http://gawker.com/why-i-left-scientology-1703997050 Carmen Llywelyn is an actress and photographer. She used to be part of Scientology and was a Scientologist for eight years. She is no longer with Scientology and I think that would make her be against it because she left for a reason.

It’s relevant as it was only 3 years ago that it was published. In this article, most of her evidence was personal experience that she when through while being a member of Scientology. Some people can say that this would be biased information since it’s just from her point of view, but it’s her story and how she saw it. Some information I think that might of being omitted what the point of view of Scientology and how they run it. She goes of how she saw and felt about a certain situation that she went through but she never states actual facts form Scientology itself. Reflection I do see why people would say that it should still be considered as a religion because are in the United States and the people have the right to freedom of religion. I personally don’t see it as a religion because I don’t think it’s a religion if one needs to pay to advance in their “religion.” This article taught me a bit more about how people are brainwashed in Scientology to believe certain things. Llywelyn, even after she left Scientology behind she still found it hard to move past the brainwashing she went through. As of right now, I don’t see Scientology as a religion.
