I am so sick of this Scientology bullshit.

I hope all my British buddies caught the panorama recently with John Sweeny on Scientology. I'm not particularly a fan of religion by default but I draw the line at this ridiculous, shameless, leaching cult. I'm sure most of you know the details but let's just look at some of the key facts about scientology:

- The process of entry and promotion in the cult is entirely dependant on how much money you donate.

- The creator of Scientology, L. Ron Hubbard, who wrote a book about the fundamentals of the cult, which includes an alien race (complete with evil emperor), giant 747 space rocket ships, soul catchers and a giant cat on a hangglider, admitted to being totally rocked on class As at the time.

- Any attempt to get close to the organisation results in invasion of your privacy at the hands of Scientologist cronies via such means as breaking and entering your property, hiring PIs to track your every move and being photographed wherever you go.

- A Scientologist must cut off all contact from any accomplices that are not Scientologists. This includes friends and family.

- The faith basically amounts to the promise of eternal life and happiness, so long as you pay enough.

- The church frequently uses criminal activities to forward it's agenda and promote new members. When attacked, criticised or even questioned, they use bureaucracy and law to attack the culprit right back to the fullest degree.

And let's not forget the long list of immensely whacked out sub-laws, such as when a women is giving birth they're not allowed to make a single sound :thumbsup: .

I might have posted this in the religion section, but the simple, logical, concrete fact is, this is no religion and it is not a faith. It is a total outright scam that takes advantage of the weak minded and unintelligent. The things is, I have very little pity for them as you'd really have to be braindead to fall for any of it.

So, we all know how Scientologists hate to be ridiculed... Here's the thread for it. Post your comments!
