Scientology Question?

Question

Why is it that Scietologist such as Tom Cruise and John Travolta think they have to recruit people to their made up religion? Don't they know that it is all a bunch of crap?

Answer 1

Scientology is all about recruitment! Scientology calls their organization a “church” so they can be tax exempt. They are in fact a business masquerading as a faith.

L. Ron Hubbard has been quoted as saying: "Writing for a penny a word is ridiculous. If a man really wants to make a million dollars, the best way would be to start his own religion" http://lisatrust.freewinds.cx/scientology/hubbard.htm

The “religion” of Scientology was then created on a bet to see if Hubbard could actually create a religion to make money and it ultimately became a business. It’s easily the richest "religion" you'll find.

The cult is mostly a high powered scam. It pays members 10% commissions, called FSM (Field Staff Member) commissions, on new recruits they bring in who take a course or get counseling, so Scientology members routinely try to "sell" Scientology to others.

The new members then, in turn, “donate” vast amounts of money to the "church". Here is a run-down of all the costs involved with Scientology: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientology_as_a_business#Costs

Here is testimony from a woman who had been involved in exposing Scientology and other cults for most of her adult life: http://www.clambake.org/archive/books/tsos/sos-19.html

Even more proof that Scientology is out for your money... here is Hubbard discussing turning Scientology into a "religion" for profit:

"I am not quite sure what we would call the place - probably not a clinic - but I am sure that it ought to be a company… We don't want a clinic. We want one in operation but not in name. Perhaps we could call it a Spiritual Guidance Center. Think up its name, will you… I await your reaction on the religion angle. In my opinion, we couldn't get worse public opinion than we have had or have less customers with what we've got to sell. A religious charter would be necessary in Pennsylvania or NJ to make it stick. But I sure could make it stick." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientology_controversy#L._Ron_Hubbard_and_starting_a_religion_for_money

Answer 2

Scientology is a product which is as like as the joke in the century of Science and Technology!

Answer 3

It is part of Scientology, more people more money, no they don't know that it is a bunch of crap.

Answer 4

They really believe in it, the question i have is that if they believe in God why did they commit adultery and fornication and go on TV to advertise their religion? the blind can not lead the blind or they both will fall into the pit.

Answer 5

"....made up religion...."
