He,he! What a bunch of Mooses! Though I think, on this occassion that could be an insult to Mooses!

having spent 4 years working for a business run by scientologists i can assure you that this stuff is just the tip of the iceberg....talk about your wacky cults and crazy people....most of the higher members never even completed high school and, like another religion we all know and love, higher education (not through their own methods) is highly discouraged....

I used to think scientology sounded cool a few years ago, untill I did some research. Makes the WTBS look like amatuers.

I would pick the Jehovah's Witness cult experience over Scientology if I was forced to choose between undergoing one or the other. Scientology is relentless about taking every cent you have and putting you into massive debt to get more. They sell enlightenment and bamboozle you into spending more and more money to get the complete knowledge of Scientology . I've met professionals (dentists) that have been suckered into spending tens of thousands on this nonsense. Scientology was started by a science fiction writer who wanted to make money. The organization is ruthless to the core in pursuing people and press who print an expose on them. Time Magazine was dragged through the courts for years over their cover story on Scientology. Time eventually won, but in a way, so did Scientology. Their purpose is to discourage anyone of note of exposing their scam and anyone who goes against them knows they are going to be hassled by them in a big way.

Hubby and I had the pleasure of attending a Landmark Forum event which reeked of cultish behavior. We knew nothing about this organization, in fact the tickets were bought for us by a JW who has gone thorough all of their programs. Within the first half hour of the program we knew we didn't want anything to do with the organization but stayed for the whole three days just to get the goods on 'em. Man our "cult" radar was going amuck........been there done that.

Oh almost forgot to mention The Landmark Forum is a branch or break off of Scientology and L Ron Hubbard, est. and Werner Erhard. Another funny thing we did is sat in defiance of the rules to not sit with your mate! The facilitator would keep saying the rule and look directly at us but never actually confronted us about it but we were waiting for him to, LOL.

There are quite a few famous people who are into scientology. Tom Cruise, Anne Archer and Johm Travolta they seem really happy with it.

There is an mp3 you can download at www.infedelguy.com where a former member talks about his time with Scientology.
I agree with Heatmiser, as cults go they make the WT look like a bunch of amateurs.

Amazingly, the Church of Scientology won the "Cult Awareness Network" a number of years ago when they sued because CAN identified them as a cult. As a settlement, they got the only asset that CAN held..its' name. So, when someone calls the Cult Awareness Network for info on cults or direction to counseling, they are talking to a Scientologist..... Talk about a wolf in sheep's clothing!!!!!!
