that Scientology is crazy?
I visited a "church." They locked me in a room (literally locked) and showed me a movie about how I'd be an idiot if I didn't become a Scientologist...

I've seen that video before too! But I didn't go into a church, it was back when I was a teenager and some friends and I were roaming around downtown and we saw a place that said "Free Personality Testing." We thought it was fun and went inside, and end up trapped (yup the door was locked) and had to watch the crazy sceientologist video. One of the girls I was with even started crying.
So yeah, I'll agree with you on that one.

I don't really like to call something crazy if i don't understand it but in the case of Scientology, i'll make an exception.
Message to Scientologists: L. Ron Hubbard was a below-par science fiction author, nothing more, nothing less.
Ps. How many poor Scientologists do you know? Very few, it's a money scam!!

Visiting a "church" is one thing but to be lock in a room is another. If "Scientologist (cult) is forcing someone to belief in their "religion" then it can't be trusted. Their are numerous "religions" today and more on the way to water down the truth of Jesus Christ - the bible says: John 6:24 Jesus is the WAY the TRUTH and THE LIFE, no man come unto the father but by him. You must have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ - believe that God sent His son Jesus to die on calvary's cross, repent of your sins and accept Jesus into your heart by faith.

oh wow. Scientology is a bad cult. If you search google for cult +scientology. you will find a video by like i think cbs. I recommend that you view it.
Scientology is the fastest growing cult in the world and there methods are dangerous. for example they seek out celebreties first. And I'm not saying celebrities shouldn't be allowed in the church, but the reason they want celebrities is so that they would advertise and use their popularity to gain new members.

You actually visited one of their "churches"??? Are you NUTS?
Yes of course I consider it crazy. I've been telling people for a long time that it's crazy.
You know, if you gave them ANY personal information, they're going to hound you by mail and by phone. Even when you tell them to leave you alone, they'll keep at you. Most people have found that the only way to get them to leave you alone is to threaten legal action if they continue contact.

Glad to hear you got away.

Ah - finally, JP has a typo!

Given that I am more of a 'boob' than a 'bobo', you can call me 'boob' if you like.
I'm always looking for a chance to give you guys a hard time. Sad that all you give me is ONE typo! Just for fun, I think you need to skip spell checker for half a day. : )

All religion is crazy, but a religion based on the pure fabrication of a science fiction writer is hysterical.
