Scientology to be sued

Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
The sources are mainly in Dutch and French at the moment, but here's a translation. Can't wait for this to happen. They deserve everything they get in my opinion, for peddling their bullshit and conning vulnerable people out of their money.

    Other religions are free and rely on voluntary contributions. Scientology doesn't.

    Yeah but Scientology doesnt tell people to go arond stoning people, or to burn witch's, nobody is forced into Scientology, so why not just leave them to do what they want?

    How much does it cost you to go to Church, listen to a priest and read the Bible? Fuck all, there is no obligation to give money to the Church.

    Scientology on the other hand, you go through stages of development. The more you pay, the more you learn. It's a croc of shit, no different than any shady pyramid scheme or e-mail that says "you've won 10 million pounds, I just need some of your money first so it can get wired to you."

    how come you seem to disagree with everything,

    scientology IS NOT like all other religions, it relys on money to join, to run or to "believe" in, it's a scam

    All religions purport complete nonsense. The Scientologists have money as their bugaboo, the Catholic Church have fiddling kids, it's all much-of-a-much. They're all as bent as each other.

    I can be plank most of the time. :p

    My issue is that people make a big deal out of Scientologists taking money as a - possibly fundamental - part of their religion. The Catholics (Muslims and all the others) require you to believe and subscribe to fantastical nonsense to join their club - i don't really draw distinction between each.

    You don't see a distinction, so you think the beliefs in Scientology aren't "fantastical nonsense?" Have you heard of Xenu?

    Anyhoo, the difference is that all of them expect you to believe and follow their system, but scientology will charge you money to gain knowledge on these beliefs. It's a scam.

    you disagree with alot of posts,

    most of the time this makes you look like an idiot as they're the most stupid disagreements ever, LIKE this one :rolleyes:

    anyway you either disagree because you want to look cool/individual or your just a moron.

    have you ever heard of water into wine/feed 5,000, healing the sick, Lazurus? need I go on?

    Every religion is based on fantastical nonsense IMHO

    And that is the point which you should be arguing.
