At the age of 25 when she met Tom, I really don’t believe that she did know what she was getting into. She was blinded by her love for him and caught up the excitement of the relationship and eventually being married to the man she once, as a young girl, dreamed she would marry.
Who would expect a religion to dominate your life to the point where your phone calls and emails are monitored, and everyone around you is a Scientologist who reports back to Tom. She never saw this kind of abuse coming. And abuse is what it was. My heart goes out to her and Suri.
25 is the new 15 huh? Would you be the same apologist for a 25 year old woman at your church who married an athiest and later claimed she was surprised that he didn’t want their children attending church?
