L Ron Hubbard was a science fiction writer and amateur occultist. He merged to two and wrote Dianetics and Scientology was born. Later in Life He apologized for it. Some may be nutcases and others in it for the money most likely. See the HBO movie "Going Clear" if you want to understand them. Last Edited by Frater Deplorable on 03/16/2017 09:46 PM LVX! |

I never returned. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 74508029 Latvia 03/18/2017 09:44 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I used to be a jehovahs witness. So i have some background and I can look at the big picture which is hard for people if they have not awoken. Here is what I figured out, ALL HUMANS are being fooled right now. Some is very overt but other is very low key, not quite as cut and dry as scientology or JW's. Its easy for someone to stand back and point a finger but when you have been there and broken out you have your eyes opened up wider then most others. You know the old saying, fool me once? The problem is you begin to see things so much clearer that you wish you could help others but you cannot. You have to sit back and watch people think they are better than Scientologists and others yet the whole time they live in a matrix of something much much darker even. Its Ironic really.... |

They are the hired by themselves hand, those who claim to be wise and have the only true religion.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 72763149 United States 03/18/2017 10:22 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | They took the notion of repression from psychology, confession from the catholic church and it is a little like psychiatry minus the drugs. Nutcases, not all I don't imagine. Tax dodgers, swindlers, cult for testing brainwashing and other forms of manipulation. All mostly true. Connected to occult funny hat wearing overgrown adolescents. Probably. On the bad side you have the likes of Tom Cruise with whatever problems he has. Then you have Beck who made some pretty groovy albums over the years with dark themes galore and catchy riffs to seduce the masses. They have rightly criticized the overuse of psychiatric meds on the populace but they also have a rather litigious reputation to critics of their organization. They seem about as evil as any of a number of other corporate and religious entities who lust for power and abuse it while portraying themselves as something more benign. |
