Your story sounds so awful, I'm sorry you had to deal with such immense homophobia on top of all this cult insanity. Have you ever listened to Ross Blotcher and Carrie Poppy's experience with Scientology on their podcast? They basically infiltrated one of the big orgs to see how far they could get, it was pretty interesting. If you have heard it or any other public recounting of someone's experiences with the cult, are there any that strike a resemblance to your own experiences?

This is exactly why I switched from pro-life to pro-choice. I realized that it's short-sighted, self-righteous and cruel to force a woman to birth a child that is, in many cases, guaranteed to have a shit life and parents that don't care about them. Most pro-lifers only care about making sure the fetus is carried to term and born... they give absolutely no thought to the child's life or needs. Even in a perfect world where every child born has the resources for a good life, it's still not okay to tell someone what they can or can't do with their own body. It's their choice, not yours.
