Scientology at its best.



<< Someone needs to give L. Ron Hubbard a good @ss kicking. >>



Shouldnt be tough, unless he was cremated. Im almost positive he is worm food right now 😛

Do these guys have more lawyers on retainer than Microsoft or is it just my imagination? What happened to fair use?
 
Damn. That's some interesting crap. I never knew about scientology's abuse of google before. What a lame ass cult.
 
Doh. I didn't realize he was dead. I see the books being advertised so I assumed he was alive. Anyhow, the gov't. should really do something about these wackos.

They have threatened to sue slashdot for posting a small part of L Ron Hubbard's "Operating Thetan Levels". They have sue antioffline.com (which is unfortunately offline :/), but the wonderful guys there got the quotes hosted on a foreign webserver (not under copyright/DMCA laws). They are well known for their use of lawyers to restrict free speech.

xenu.net has a lot of information about them. Id post some of it here, but knowing how it has a tendancy to get people in trouble (and my respect for Anand and friends that run anandtech) I will not post it, nor link to it directly 🙂
 


<< F*ck L Ron Hubbard and f*ck all his clones...

Best part of that song (the whole f*ck part, not just that line in particular) 😛

It looks like totl.net even took scientology off their cult ov the week page.... I kind of remember it being up there...
 


<< Can someone explain what Scientology really is about and why everyone in Hollywood is part of it? >>



xenu.net will have some explanations of this stuff.
 


<< They have threatened to sue slashdot for posting a small part of L Ron Hubbard's "Operating Thetan Levels". >>


I started reading some of these on that Xenu.net. In leve 8 he basically calls Jesus a homosexual and a pedophile. Thanks for the post - now I have something to read this evening 🙂

Take frequent breaks and remember these people are nuts. 😉

In a nutshell, Scientology is a philosophy that supposedly has the answers to all of life's problems. The Church of Scientology is a totalitarian organization that has hijacked this philosophy.
 


<< Take frequent breaks and remember these people are nuts. >>


Funny. After reading The Demon Haunted World, I just love reading BS like this. This is my favorite part so far:

My mission could be said to fulfill the Biblical promise represented by this brief anti-Christ period. During this period there is a fleeting opportunity for the whole scenario to be effectively derailed, which would make it impossible for the mass Marcabian landing (Second Coming) to take place. The Second Coming is designed, among other things, to trigger a rapid series of destructive events.

ROFL!
 


<< If these people are this nuts and evil, why hasn't someone brought charges or otherwise involved law enforcement? >>



There are some things about this near the bottom of xenu.net on the front page. "COS AND THE LAW"
 


<< If these people are this nuts and evil, why hasn't someone brought charges or otherwise involved law enforcement? >>



'Cause Scientology isn't an 800 pound gurella... they are an 8 ton gurella. They easy have the best (best meaning sleazest and most cut throat) lawyers and spin doctors ever born. Everyone even remotely related to Scientology is a f**king nut ball. And it's truly scary how much power that "church" has.




<< In a nutshell, Scientology is a philosophy that supposedly has the answers to all of life's problems. The Church of Scientology is a totalitarian organization that has hijacked this philosophy. >>



Close. Scientology is based on fictional boox written by L. Ron Hubbard (I believe "Dianetics"<sp?> is the "big" one). It started out as anyother cult, but it managed to really take off in Hollywood and spread (It's currently being sued by the French government). In the early 80s (I believe) the Feds were looking into COS. But the COS, somehow convinced some d@mn court that they were a real religion. So now, they are basically bullet proof because they can justify just about everything as part of their "religion."

The xenu.net page has a lot more information, including links to pro-scientology sites which will give you the other side of the story.
 
In the US (and maybe a few other countries) the COS is considered a religion. Thus it is afforded the Freedom Of Religion rights and what not.

But the majority of the countries out there (France and Germany come to mind) consider it a business. Thus they are afforded the rights of a business but not a religion.

I dont believe the rights of either type of institution include the right to restrict free speech, which by limiting the information available about it, it is doing. Its jus sick they can get away with all of this crap because they have money.
