Scientologists have recently spread to the UK. Should we worry?

Question

Atheist here. I find them creeeeeeepy!

Answer 1

Yes you should worry. I highly recommend that you write letters to your local and federal politicians asking what they plan to do to protect your community and country from this criminal organisation.

The following is a compilation of some of my research into Scientology.

Scientology is a cult that destroys lives and is responsible for countless crimes and deaths.

Scientology teaches that around 75 million years ago there was an alien named ‘Xenu’. His home world was over populated, so he dumped the excess population on earth in some volcanoes (which didn’t exist 75 million years ago), dropped H-bombs on them, then captured their souls and brain washed them. These souls are called ‘thetans’ and supposedly attach themselves to humans, causing all manner of ills.

Scientologists believe in denying various medical treatments such as medication to control seizures, anti-psychotics (for schizophrenia etc) mood stabilizers (for Bipolar, Manic Depression etc) and anti-depressants (for depression, Post Traumatic Stress (shell shock), postnatal depression etc).

Heribert Pfaff, aged 31 died in hotel room, of a seizure. He was undergoing a Scientology treatment regime which required him to cease taking his prescribed anti-seizure medication and take vitamins and minerals instead.

Margarit Winkelmann, aged 51, drowned herself after Scientologists placed her on a similar treatment regime which required her to stop taking Lithium, a mood stabilizer used to treat depression, Bipolar etc.

The following links are news stories about a girl with schizophrenia, whose parents refused to allow her to take her medication because they were Scientologists. She had a severe psychotic episode because she’s so long been deprived of treatment and killed her father and sibling, almost killing her mother too.

Scientologists also believe they have the right to torture or kill ‘Suppressive Persons’ (SP) people who oppose Scientology
“ENEMY: SP Order. Fair game. May be deprived of property or injured by any means by any Scientologist without any discipline of the Scientologist. May be tricked, sued or lied to or destroyed.”
http://www.fairgamed.org/fairgame.htm
Scientology also has its own navy, called ‘Sea Org’. Sea Org members sign billion year contracts and are punished for perceived transgressions by being thrown over board (sometimes tied hand and food and blindfolded) and are thrown from various heights according to their ‘transgression’. Alternatively they may be locked in a chain-locker. ‘A chain-locker is "a dark hole where the anchor chains are stored; cold, wet and rats,”’

The costs of becoming a Scientologist are prohibitive. In order to be fully ‘audited’, it costs a minimum of $277 000.00, and $380 000.00 if a fully audited individual wishes to become an auditor.

Answer 2

Recently? My Dad started in the early 1950s in the UK, and I've been a Scientologist since 1972.

I'm afraid you're out by 50 years at least. Ooooh scary!

However the expansion of Scientology has increased dramatically in the last few years which is why it's become far more noticeable.

Answer 3

i think of it is going to be a typhoon in a tea cup over right here. There are alot of IF's to get previous earlier we ought to constantly start up annoying and if it does become a scourge then we've stable medical centers and all of the emergancy amenities and public sectors comprehend what they're doing to maintain an infection down. ill start to fret no remember if this is deemed a scourge or perhaps then this is quite only the very youthful, previous, and disabled which would be at serious possibility (Im not asserting that they might all die I in basic terms propose the averge bod has not something to fret approximately extra beneficial than being ill for some days!!)

Answer 4

They have been there for years. I was grabbed by them on Tottenham Court Rd in London 25 years ago. They asked me if I wanted to do a 'fun personality test'. I did it. Long story short, I was deeply disturbed and needed to stay and talk to a higher level person etc etc, or I could leave, but 'you must buy Dianetics, it will help you....yadda yadda'

Answer 5

I don't every subscribe to hate post, however, for Scientology's, I would make an exception. I think we should bundle them all up, Tom Cruise and John Travolta included, and send them to preach in Helman Provence. I would not personally wish them harm, I just feel that they deserve to have a real extremist or two hundred to preach too... and let nature take its course.

Answer 6

you people really get sucked in by the media. Listen, they are only trying to sell their newspapers and for you to live in fear.

it´s not threat. You can choose what you want to believe.

FACTS '- they haven´t blown up any tubes or buses, they arn´t making any plots to blow up buildings and airports, they are rioting on the streets in the name of their religion and they arn´t the fastest growing religion in the world.

Answer 7

Scientology has been in the UK for over 40 years or more.
What do you mean by recently.
What are you worried about , you're not interested in religion anyway.

Answer 8

I'd be really worried if I were you, if you have only just discovered this. They've been here for donkey's years. Did you hear that Jehovahs Witnesses were here too ??

Answer 9

Non-atheist here, and I find them creepy, too. I wouldn't worry, though. I have a great deal of faith in British common sense.

Answer 10

Yes, worry. They will sue everyone that speaks against them into rank poverty. Its nothing but a money grubing scam.
