Actress Leah Remini reportedly leaving Scientology

[aint_no_life_nowhere]

12. I've never known any scientologists

but in the 70s, I ran into someone who was involved in a group called EST. I applied for a job at a convenience store while going to college and they required me to take a lie detector test. The independent contractor administering the test had me sit in the back of her van where she had her equipment. The test was over in about 15 minutes. But the lady didn't stop asking me question after question, trying to make various rhetorical points. She wanted to recruit me to attend some kind of seminar as a member of EST. She wouldn't move or let me get up out of the back of the van. I didn't want to get angry and throw her aside and I sat through a couple of hours of this while she tried to make me a convert. She was more persistent than the Mormons who come to the door or the Hare Krishnas at airports. Finally I just brushed past her and removed her hand from my arm. I'm not the group joining kind.
