Scientology

[logicalGoth]

What the crap is it? The website's limited description is totally generic and offers little in the way of straightforward explanation. Rather just incessent ramblings using cleverly placed philosophical lingo & jargonistic language:

I found the specifics I was looking for in this:

But I'd rather not base my opinion on a cartoon meant to parody.

To be honest, I guess there are hundreds of religions out there just like this one, many that the average person doesn't know about nor wants to know about, but since Scientology in particular has such a large celebrity following I guess I was just curious. After all, I'm a typical red-blooded westerner, as such I make celebrities business my business. As you do, naturally.

An elaborate scam/tax evasion scheme?

Ah, thank you Chimpy.

All this time I naturally assumed scientology was based on science. But if science becomes religion that defeats the whole point right? Luckily I see it's not based on science but on alien ghost spirits who did some freaky crap and the rest is history.

Ya know this religion was started by an author of sci-fi novels?
Figures.

The aliens in my stomach are currently fighting a war with the devils in my bowles

Of all the religions that have been persecuted why not scientology?

 

[JeremyC]

please, don't persecute the scientologists...they may go away in a huff, and stop entertaining the rest of us.

I'd have commented sooner but my xenu got stuck in my zipper.
