Everyone knows the correct answer was The Mormons anyway.

You must work for someone, and have a condescending tone when addressing important issues.
Also, it helps to subscribe to his newsletter.

I sub his newsletter, it's a tremendous parrot cage liner.

need I say more?

I thought Scientology was a cult where to have any consideration for membership required a person to be a rich whackjob actor.

Hubbard still has to be laughing in his grave.

Just roll with it.

Ricker,

I feel like my vision may be clouded, and that I am not seeing life in the truest possible light. Is there any way scientology can help me?

**going_home** · 01-20-2007, 11:23 AM

Um no...the cult is in St.Petersburg Florida bigtime

The Church of Scientology is a cult that destroys people, so it needs to be exposed. To back up this strong claim I need to collect some of their secret literature. Read it and make up your mind.

Have a read boys.

So lemme get this strait... I Choose to beleive in some kind of mask thing, but then scientologists need to tell me what it is? Choosing-by definition- implies that you know what you choose. If I choose to do something, I have to know what it is I'm choosing.

A somewhat long, interesting (warning- IIRC, a little graphic) presentation on scientology- yes it's from YTMND, but it's not a humor one.

Wow. That is one of the scariest things I have ever heard of. They do that to people in the name of money and power?

Case in point. You see, what Steelrat is doing is endemic of all criticisms of Scientology. Find a conflicting point, and then instantly jump to the conclusion that all is null and void.

Well, it is fairly ridiculous. Sure, there are plenty of outlandish claims in pretty much any religion, but some of the more entertaining claims attributed to scientology are completely ridiculous and only serve to cast doubt upon the entire "religion."

For instance, if the Pope went around claiming that Jesus travelled around in a chariot that looked exactly like a 1957 Cadillac Brougham, only with horses instead of a V-8, we'd either think the Pope was crazy, or that Christianity was a farce. The big difference is that the pope is only the most current face of a subset of Christianity as a whole, whereas Hubbard IS scientology. Patently ridiculous claims he makes only serve to undermine the validity of scientology as a whole.

It's impossible to even give any of his claims a chance once you've read about Xenu, Thetans watching movies, intergallactic DC8s, and the rest.

I wonder how many wives Desega has... and how old they are

**Phillips** · 01-22-2007, 05:37 PM

My question would be why is it ok to publicly mock their beliefes and not that of say Christians?.
I do believe that there should be some equality.
Respect people's views and unless you have a DETAILED knowledge of their beliefes you are in no position to comment.

p.s. No I am not, yes I USED to be christian, I know my way around both faiths to a certain degree.
