Dude, El Ron was a well known huckster and con artist. He played around with various lesser cons before he finally hit the big score: inventing his own religion where you have to pay and pay and pay to achieve enlightenment.

Real Scientology Beliefs - I am a Scientologist. I express my beliefs related to my religion on this blog.

readin through these brilliant pieces this scientologist writes its apparent that there r some good cases for scientology. the purification faze of the process is inspirin to me. the scientology god expects u to purify 1s self and eat rite. the fact that there was a galactic confederacy (space soldiers) seems kinda iffy. is it possible? sure its possible. is it probable? idk thats a tough question. its important to recognize that scientology is very organized. is u violate the sea or code u get rehabilitation. this is much like modern world america so the similarities are similar.

does this evidence make u question ur current religion

The only advantage i can see for scientology is that when the question of which is the stupidest religion on earth then the roman catholics can proudly put up their hands and say " Not us"

I don't know anything about Scientology except bits of news I have read. It sounds like a dangerous scam cult for lunatics. I remember reading the original article on Dianetics in a science fiction magazine about 50 years ago. It sounded like self help psychology back then. Nothing about gods, religion, organizations, etc. I wouldn't go near it now. They probably serve KoolAid.

Um .... stupidest religion? Biggest scam? I think the Climate Change Alarmist Cult beats Scientology. It costs everyone a fortune not just its adherents.

I've decided long ago that I'd make my own religion. I'm gonna call it The Church of Human Instrumentality. Essentially, everything scientology says, my church is going to say the opposite. Including that Lord Xenu was a kind, fair, and benevolent leader of the Galactic Republic and fell victim to political shenanigans resulting in his illegal imprisonment by his political opposition who wished to grab power for themselves.

Then I'm going to pirate that Yacht they have.

What you clearly fail to see here is that the current pope is a Scientologist, and proudly out about being one.

I think the same about the climate change deniers. Only with them it is fitting because they like these religions have no science to back them. While climate change, of course, does.

The cause being truth? Exposing an evil cult? Yep, she's one, and I agree with her totally. Scientology has no redeeming value.

It isn't. So, there we go. Of course, if it fixes your spelling that might be a plus. Also, a Libertarian supporting a controlling cult... that's amusing.
