Actually, they should create giant beacons in wide open spaces all over the world where they could all be gathered in one 24 hour period by the Mothership.

You better hurry up then..... Antartica is melting at quite a rate these days what with Global Warming etc.

Actually this idea has been tried before in the USA back in the
1950's. Certain "vested interests" tried to pass a Bill thro the Senate. It was nicknamed the "Siberia Bill" and if passed would have allowed them to lable "nuts" and ship pretty much anyone with "different" ideas. Not just religious.They chose Alaska at that particular time.
Fortunately it was discovered , exposed , and defeated by certain people concerned with the rights and freedoms of their fellows.
(one of these people was actually L.Ron Hubbard !)

As to Scientology's religious purposes..... what's wrong with them?
Just for the record:
Scientology is an applied religious philosophy. When I say "applied" I mean you actually use it in your life to change or improve existing conditions. This is different from a religious practice. All religions if you learn about them have a basic philosphy, but they also have certain dogma, rituals and observances, and a certain faith or belief is required. There is nothing wrong with this, but Scientology is not that kind of religion. It does not intrude on anyones faiths of beliefs particularly in the area of God , the Supreme Being, or the Infinite. This area is left totally up to the indivdual, which is why you can be a practicing Jew,for example and still use and apply the priniciples of Scientology in your life. It does not conflict. If anything it will enhance your understanding of your chosen religious practice.
You can have no specific religious beliefs and still benefit from using it.
And it is only true for you according to your own observation and experience with it.
It is a non denominational religion . The dictionary definition that applies:
Religion: The spiritual or emotional attitude of one who recognises the existence of superhuman power or powers.

The most basic principle of Scientology is that YOU are your own immortal soul, that this is not a "thing" you HAVE but what YOU actually are.
The whole purpose of Scientology is to increase an individual's understanding and awareness of himself. And thereby his native abilities .
When you do this the sphere and zone of his positive influence increases and moves outward into his life, his family ,his friends, his groups and mankind which he is part of.

How this result is achieved is the "technology" of Scientology, which was developed by L.Ron Hubbard after his extensive research and the discoveries he made, about the human spirit. The basic religious philosophy and knowledge of Scientology is very old, going back 10,000 years at least to the Veda or Vedic Hymns from the East. The developement of the technology is new.
He completed his research before his death in 1986 and left all of his results and copyrights
to the Church of Scientology along with most of his considerable estate., when he died.

He published a book in 1951 to communicate the basic principles he discovered called: " Scientology The Fundementals of Thought"
There are currently over 8 million Scientologists in more that 150 countries world wide. However we are a new religion, only 53 years old.
The true story of Scientology as a religion goes like this:
1. A philosopher developes a philosophy about life and death.
2. People find it interesting.
3. People find it works.
4. People pass it along to others.
5. It grows.

Yes I'm a Scientologist. I also want to visit Antarctica, but for right now my purpose is to bring some sanity into this world so that Antartica is actually still there for me to visit in the future.
Among other things.

Why would you want to send these people away? I don't know much about scientology but from what I have read it seems that these people are open minded and are taught to think for themselves and find what feels right for them spiritually. They don't use scare tactics or force their beliefs down other people's throats. Whats so bad about that?

No, as with all religious zealots, they merely need to be more tolerant of others, and stop insisting that their way is the only way. And if that isn't possible, then perhaps they should consider lobotomy.

With the way the environment is going, that will probably start looking like some really nice beach-front pretty soon.

Well, we have to accept every culture and religion on earth, we can't send people we don't like or who we think have strange beliefs to another country just because we can't accept what they are, especially antartica!

No. The penguins are too intelligent to fall for their bs, and the polar bears are too mean to listen
