You know, I wish I could just pass of Scientologists as satire, but unfortunately humans can be that dumb.

The religion itself sucks too. Sure certain religions cannibalize their savior, or get their advice from a chubby vagabond, but at least their stories have morals. What do we learn from Dianetics? Don't trust alien overlords?

It seems to be a big celebrity fad now.

Actually factually, it is a cult. They steal your money and when it is all gone they leave you for dead.

Normally I would talk about how it's just some made up crap by a science-fiction writer and people up and made it into a religion, but Scientology is taking quite the beating here.

Seriously, if it were made a thousand or so years ago, people would be defending it and calling the people who point and laugh 'hate-mongers' The only difference with any other religion is that it specifically points out modern day technology instead of pointing to miricles; instead of fire from the heavens, theres bombs.

Serious question: Just how many people would point and laugh at scientology if Xenu were instead a demon, the space-ships that look like planes were flaming chariots or metal birds, and the bombs were fireballs (along with other tweaks here and there) ?
Deep unspeakable suffering may well be called a baptism, a regeneration, the initiation into a new state.

That is exactly the point. It can be compared to some relgions, but the way they worded it makes it come off totally fake.

I wouldn't be suprised if Tom Cruise didn't believe in it and is just using it to get attention.

Hopefully, John Travolta is just faking it. He just doesn't seem to be a person who would actually believe that kind of stuff. I mean, c'mon...Hydrogen Bombs, Volcanoes, and Aliens? All a bunch of bologna...

He flew around in a DC-8 (as the pilot, I mean). The very plane that is supposedly what the space planes Xenu used in the story of OT-III. He blew all the currency he had in Hollywood to make a movie version of Battlefield Earth, the crappy story penned by his Messiah, L. Ron Hubbard.

John Travolta, like Tom Cruise, is a true believer.

(I'm an old-school Scientology critic. I'm the other Michael in this story.)

In the words of every other person to ever defend a religious argument,
PROOVE IT DOESNT EXIST! U CANT SO IT DOES!!! HAHA

The sad fact about Scientology is that you can prove that it is false. OTIII's "Incident 2" names specific volcanoes that got nuked to destroy all these people 75 million years ago or so.

These volcanoes didn't exist 75 million years ago....

You see, Hubbard wrote that crap up before plate tectonics were known. He still had the "wrinkled prune" model of the Earth in his head.

Oops. And Hubbard, in History of Man stated among other things that human evolution proceeded through the clam (hence the pejorative use of "clams" to refer to Scientologists) and through Piltdown Man. As the link above states, the excuse they use for the clams bit is that Hubbard was talking about "spiritual evolution" (although the text itself says otherwise). But that still doesn't explain evolution through a being that never existed. Piltdown Man, after all, was fraudulent....

Ever been approached by scientologists? They hawk, man. A couple of my friends were walking past a scientology center and were pressured (yeah, their fault, they were dumb) into going inside to fill out an "interesting persolaity assesment" - they spent three or four hours in there and were repeatedly asked to buy scientology books and merchandise. There are always people hawking outside of this building.

My friend's ex-girlfriend was a scientologist. Whenever I brought up politics she would rant about psychiatrists and how they're brainwashing society. And she was a biter (of flesh, for those of you who need clarification).

I would! Pick me!

Especially given that it was clearly a moneymaking scam that outlived the guy whom devised it. I'd go on, but my fingers are a bit tired of typing.

I will say that the only thing they have even remoely right is a disdain for psychology, and they even mess that up with their brainwashing substute for said "science".

I still am.

So... Which money making pseudo-religion has the better celebrities?

1) Scientology (Tom Cruise, Katie Holmes, John Travolta, Chaka Khan, Juliette Lewis, Lisa Marie Presley)
2) Kaballah (Madonna, Demi Moore, Ashton Kutcher, Britney Spears, Mick Jagger, Anthony Kiedis, Lindsay Lohan)

Place your bets now.
