Answer 2

It's a false religion. There have been books published by them that claim discoveries, stating that they are "all very easy to prove," yet the Church of Scientology has refused to release their proofs. The religion has pseudoscientific branches to it which includes theories that are altered versions of actual discoveries. It talks about survival instinct, which is just a rip off of Darwin's theories. A lot of what they say is extremely vague.

It's easy to get sucked into believing their claims because, as I said, some of them are based on the actual scientific discoveries of others, and many of their claims make intuitive sense, even though they are baseless.

For example, Scientologists claim that nearly all human ailments are caused psychologically and that a person very well practiced in the ways of Scientology should almost never get ill. It's a known fact that ones mental state can affect physical health, so their statement is an extension of this and therefore believable to many. A few years ago, I read in an article that upper members of the Church of Scientology will go so far as to disguise any ailments that they may be suffering from, such as a common cold.

Scientologist also give people they hope to recruit into the cult a free personality test called "The Oxford Capacity Analysis Test." The test has absolutely nothing to do with Oxford University and it is suggested that it was given this deliberately misleading name by the cult in order to lend it credibility.

In late 2001, I was approached by a Scientologist as I walked down the street. He gave me an IQ test and the Oxford Capacity Analysis Test. He gave me the name of a book called "Dianetics of the Human Mind" by L. Ron Hubbard, the cult's originator. I purchased the book, which talked about psychological discoveries and techniques. It was not very clear and didn't actually describe the procedures to be followed. I was almost suckered into believing the claims it made, though I wasn't about to start following the religious component of Scientology (which wasn't mentioned in the book).

I had never heard of Scientology before, and I did some research on it, finding out that it was some wierd cult.

Anyway, if you wanna join the cult for fun, go ahead and don't take it seriously, but I wouldn't waste my time. It's a money-making con.

Answer 3

http://www.xenu.net/
contains all the information you need.

It's an evil cult - A BUSINESS - designed to make money and nothing else . Its effects on believers are destructive.

Read "the road to xenu" - http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~dst/Library/Shelf/xenu/ - an account of a girl who escaped scientology after 12 years!

The cult's core belief - no, I am not kidding here! - in the words of the founder (you're not supposed to read this, or you'll die of pneumonia!)

"The head of the Galactic Federation (76 planets around larger stars visible from here) (founded 5,000,000 years ago, very space opera) solved overpopulation (250 billion or so per planet, 178 billion on average) by mass implanting. He caused people to be brought to Teegeeack (Earth) and put an H-Bomb on the principal volcanos (Incident II) and then the Pacific area ones were taken in boxes to Hawaii and the Atlantic area ones to Las Palmas and there "packaged".

His name was Xenu. He used renegades. Various misleading data by means of circuits etc. was placed in the implants.

When through with his crime loyal officers (to the people) captured him after six years of battle and put him in an electronic mountain trap where he still is. "They" are gone. The place (Confederation) has since been a desert. The length and brutality of it all was such that this Confederation never recovered. The implant is calculated to kill (by pneumonia etc) anyone who attempts to solve it. This liability has been dispensed with by my tech development.

One can freewheel through the implant and die unless it is approached as precisely outlined. The "freewheel" (auto-running on and on) lasts too long, denies sleep etc and one dies. So be careful to do only Incidents I and II as given and not plow around and fail to complete one thetan at a time.

In December 1967 I knew someone had to take the plunge. I did and emerged very knocked out, but alive. Probably the only one ever to do so in 75,000,000 years. I have all the data now, but only that given here is needful.

One's body is a mass of individual thetans stuck to oneself or to the body.

One has to clean them off by running incident II and Incident I. It is a long job, requiring care, patience and good auditing. You are running beings. They respond like any preclear. Some large, some small.

Thetans believed they were one. This is the primary error. Good luck."

Answer 4

To join, you have to give them money. And then you have to give them more money. And then you have to give them EVEN MORE.

Feel like giving them upwards of $380,000? That's what you'll end up doing if you stay in the organization long enough:

Answer 5

This isn't a question it's a statement.

If your main reason for joining "this thing" is so you can party and meet celebs I'd advise you not to bother.

It's a religion for folks who have a spiritual purpose.

What's your purpose for making this statement on R&S ?

Answer 6

In Germany Scientology is iilegal because it is considered dangerous and a cult not a religion, but to each his or her own!

Answer 7

You get a LOT of people telling you you're insane.

But don't fret it, most of those people follow an equally insane religion called "Christianity"

Answer 8

scientology is a false religion embraced by those who refuse to look at the truth as God presents it......a cult that persuades people to dig deep into their sin and offers no redemption...only suggestions...there is no way to the Father...but through the Son....†
