I am looking for more stuff for my 'Why be a critic' page, which is at http://thingy.apana.org.au/~fun/scn/why/others.html >> My name is Lori Ann Chauvette. I came upon ARS during my research into doing a page on cults in general. After seeing all the stories on ARS from former members and those that dared to cross the church, I stuck around, mostly lurking and drinking in what I was reading. The more I read, the more I was outraged what these people were doing. I am a born-again Christian, and I felt that what I was reading about the Cult of Scientology was an outrage. So I started posting my feelings on what I was reading to the newsgroup. And it kind of snowballed from there. Recently, I started volunteering my time to working for FACTNet on their Scientology and Hollywood section, because I feel that celebrities have the greatest influence on the general public and the media. And I'm also creating my own pages about the truth regarding Scientology, which will be up soon. That's my reasons why I'm a critic. Lori Ann Chauvette SP2
