Jeez.. Scientologist friend is trying to convert my friend into one.

[Pooteh]

not so fast. you don't have to look far in organized religion to find whackos.

jehovas witnesses? they won't take blood transfusions to save their lives. they'd probably force this on their dying child too.

giving up your faith = disowned and shunned by all.


sick sh*t.


and last i checked, scientoligists havn't had a severe problem with child molestation.(catholics-duh)

or terrorism, ignorance/hatred(islam).

they don't send white powder/bombs/and bullets into planned parent hood buildings.[Christians)

and lets not get into the beliefs of mormons ok?

don't throw stones if you live in a glass house is what i say.



i throw stones just fine, i'm an agnostic

mostly at hipocrites becuz its just fun.

There are parts in some of the links I posted.

Good point. I also wonder if anyone here has even the foggiest grasp of the ideas behinf Scientology. I alays see a bunch of uninformed knee-jerk reactions on the topic. The information on xenu.net is almost laughable in it's bias and attempted slandering.

I have reas Dianetics and found it very interesting at the time....just as I find the Koran, the Bible and the Bhagavad Gita interesting. I like to hear varied opinions on life from different sources.

Thats pretty bad.

When was the last time you checked?

or terrorism, ignorance/hatred(islam).

HAHAHAHA! You know nothing about them do you? unwarranted legal threats constitute terrorism in my opinion. Ignorance? Please. Hatred? They hate all non-scientologists!

Im a diest, so what?

You're right, CoS isnt all that bad:
L. Ron Hubbard created the US Air Force!
Its not actually possible to kidnap your own kid is it?
Divorce is fairly common... Even for these reasons?
Most service men spice up their stories a tiny bit.

Thats enough for now

I found the Bible, various Chinese writings, and the Satanic Bible all very good reads. But it doesnt make me believe that everything they do is right. I still believe some jackass priest molesting a little boy is wrong.

well, if scientologists had a horrific problem with it, i think the press would have a field day as they are now with catholics.

or terrorism, ignorance/hatred(islam).

okie! legal threats = bomb in a cafe. its all da same i say.. oh yessa!
scientologists are flying planes into civilian buildings! filling pipe bombs with nails and rat poison to make sure women and children bleed to death. sentencing women to death by stoning and slapping men on the wrist instead. good comparisons.. oh yess

let me guess, you got those from xenu.net too? have to checked more resources to make sure its not a crock of sh*t? or do you want me to post an islamic site telling us why the US is really controlled by the jews?

Hey Pooteh, you one of those whacko Scientologists?

There are other "christian" religions out there that can keep their mouths shut.

Oh yeah, I forget some people think terrorism does not mean The act of terrorizing, or state of being terrorized; a mode of government by terror or intimidation. --Jefferson. It means someone has to die... Wait, no all the definitions on dictionary.com mention threatening someone, not killing anyone... Hmmmm....

scientologists are flying planes into civilian buildings! filling pipe bombs with nails and rat poison to make sure women and children bleed to death. sentencing women to death by stoning and slapping men on the wrist instead. good comparisons.. oh yess

Read the definition and turn off the television.

I never said Islam did not have its problems, or that Catholics can keep their hands out of the pants of little boys. Not once did I say those religions are always good, or that I like them in any way. I did state however that I hate all organized religions, COS happens to be at the top. Everytime I see COS mentioned, it is in relation to "some stupid actor joined the COS and is now broke and hooked on crack" or "'this former COS member committed suicide after speaking out against the COS,' said the Sherrif, OT III" or "Scientologists threaten to sue another ISP/website/individual for using writings in a way approved by fair use." They have a bad rep for a reason. Get over it.

 

[rufruf44]

Oh for crying out loud, lets just have God come down here and wipe out every single hideous religion and cult. That should end the problem real quick. Now, who has enough pull to ask him to do that?

L.Ron wanted to show that he could make up a religion and fool the idiots and it looked like he succeeded.

BTW, AFAIC all religions are whacko, just some (Like Scientology) are whackier than others.

 

[gopunk]

you're sorely mistaken if you think the reason the catholic incidents are getting so much press is just because they happened. on the contrary, this sort of thing happens in nearly every major religion. the reason it was so heavily publicized for the catholics is because they tried to hide it, and let the problem continue. not to say that the scientologists aren't doing this, but obviously if something is hidden, it has to be found first.

okie! legal threats = bomb in a cafe. its all da same i say.. oh yessa!

this has been taken care of, learn how to read before you make a further fool out of yourself.

let me guess, you got those from xenu.net too? have to checked more resources to make sure its not a crock of sh*t? or do you want me to post an islamic site telling us why the US is really controlled by the jews?

do you really think the CoS is just "misunderstood"? i find it hard to believe that there is some sort of a mass conspiracy by all the people who report attempted terrorism by the CoS. and what is your goddamn point? all religions pretty much suck? i already know that.

 

[Kitros]

OMG!

Could this be true?!?!

Here's a quote from xenu.net

The Church of Scientology is a vicious and dangerous cult that masquerades as a religion. Its purpose is to make money. It practices a variety of mind-control techniques on people lured into its midst to gain control over their money and their lives. Its aim is to take from them every penny that they have and can ever borrow and to also enslave them to further its wicked ends.

Wait a sec... I thought we were talking about Scientology, not Catholicism...

I confoozled now.

Obviously. They seem to have indirectly stolen quite a bit of money which could have gone to the Catholic church in the US. No wonder US Catholics are their biggest enemies.

i think its vilified by religious hipocrites with their own agendas. i play fair.


i find it hard to believe that there is a mass conspiracy by all people who believe that the world is run by jews. look at the reams of publications, websites galore, it must have some credibility.


and well yes that was my goddamned point, all major religions pretty much suck. especially when they point their fingers at other religions.

and red dawn only wishes he could get close to tom cruise. poor bitter fellow.

If you ask Scientologists about Scientology they will tell you only good things. Everyone is biased, get over it.

More bias

His response..

XXXXXX, truth comes from source and your own observation. A group of people with vested interests can't offer you any truth through their baseless hatred.

Xenu.net is an internet site operated by a group of wackos, perverts and criminals. Some of the accusations they make - I can't even fathom how anyone could arrive at these conclusions.

Best advice is to see for yourself.

what's my agenda? you're not playing it fair, you're playing it retarded.

pure speculation, whereas many people will tell you about their personal encounter with the CoS.

and well yes that was my goddamned point, all major religions pretty much suck. especially when they point their fingers at other religions.

and so you decide to stand up for what they're pointing their finger at, with little attention paid to whether or not they are justified in doing so.
