Aaron Smith-Levin

So I was 12 years old when I was taken out of school and started officially full-time working for Scientology.

Okay.

So in various capacities, I worked for them from the ages of 12 to the age of 26.

Yeah.

Okay.

So, and then I was 34 when I officially parted ways with Scientology, which was really more them officially parting ways with me, but we can get into all that later.

That's just kind of how Scientology does it.

And what do you do now in terms of Scientology?

So now I run Growing Up in Scientology, the YouTube channel, but what I primarily do is I help run an organization that helps people who are escaping from Scientology.

I'm the vice president of the Aftermath Foundation.

And we created the foundation after the television show, Leah Remini, Scientology in the Aftermath.

And there was such an outpouring of support from non-scientologists all over the world

What can we do to help people leave Scientology?

That we decided to create a foundation and it's been incredibly successful.

We've helped people escape from all regions and echelons of Scientology.

We've accomplished, what we've accomplished is far beyond what we actually envisioned would be possible.

It's been a huge success.

So when I say godlike, I really just mean, you know, Thanos, like unlimited.

Scientologists don't believe in a god.

So when I say godlike, I just mean the most powerful entity, the creator, the prime mover unmoved, except we are all that.
