What an expose, watched from HBO last night.

8 million dollars membership fee?

Their practice and philosophy, mostly lies according to some interviewees.

What do you think?

the founder isn't even religious. He saw the tax benefits and financial perks of "church", so started his own. It is the worship of self and it is about economic dominance and economic submission. It is much like a cult with control, and fear, and little truthful information emanating from this 'cult'.

Yes it was such a revelation for me. The ins and outs and the accusations still in the process of being investigated. Amazing.

Cult it is I guess.

Yet in the US of A it is classed as a religion, I guess taking the true literal meaning of "religion"then America is correct, but the ideology behind such this religion is somewhat distorted and full of contradictions, as such it is really surprising that certain people who you would regard as having above average intelligence have fallen for the hype and paid out thousands of dollars to be told their hypothetical futures.

Simple answer, make your own faith and just believe in yourself!!!

They've done their semi circle in the horizon,as a new religion.
Somebody gained a lot of money,from those memberships.
Scientology was like a bright star,now days about to be extinquished to
oblivion.

With the way they were pictured last night, I am sure it will be Chris. Lots of documents sustaining their bad practice.

You'd love the chapter on Body Thetans which are the invisible molecules of universal life-energy governing our moods and our actions. Negative Body Thetans are the cause of all the world's problems. It's an extremely compelling argument because I recently sustained a massive head injury.

That actor's wife had to pretend to still love him and hide out and get out of there before he put their daughter in their kindergarten brainwash program. What a mess.

Scientology was started by a crook who died a fugitive from justice and was described in detail by Time Magazine.

Time Magazine published a special report (cover story - May 6, 1991) which can be summarized in two lines - "Ruined lives. Lost fortunes. Federal crimes. Scientology poses as a religion but really is a ruthless global scam -- and aiming for the mainstream".

Readers Digest also published an article.
"Scientology: Anatomy of a Frightening Cult
The faithful inner core serve as thieves, shills and spies. The shocking story behind one of the most dangerous "religious cults" in America today"
By Eugene M. Methvin May, 1980

Power of smooth talk Rizal and the promises that are hollowed. But I believe the charismatic and very elitist qualification gives the importance on the new recruit and by the time you know what you are doing, you're in it like hypnotized? At least that is the explanation of those who were interviewed.

A true misleading concept and philosophy.sad flower sad flower
