There's a wealth of critical information about Scientology at other Internet sites.

Scientology's own web site<
Take a look at the official Scientology site. Notice that there are no links to critical information. Scientology doesn't want you to have both sides of the story.

< More good sites:

Books on Scientology<
This extensive bibliography lists books and articles on Scientology and related topics. Although Scientology has tried to suppress all books that portray it in a bad light, several of them are now available on the web; this page includes links to those sites.

 




< A few pages of my own

I originally started picketing using an alias, "Jour," because I was aware of Scientology's habit of harassing its critics. Scientology ultimately outed me, so now I go by my given name, Kristi Wachter.

These are a few pages I've put together.

Scientology and Human Rights

Miscellaneous articles
