Re: Church of Scientology lol
In my eyes it is jst a bunch of foolishness thought up by a washed up fiction writer. L. Ron Huddard was pretty smart though. Religios groups don't pay taxes in the USA, so any money given to them can go to whatever the hell they want. ingenious

Re: Church of Scientology lol
L. Ron Hubbard was a damn good writer, makes me wonder how someone so intelligent could have come up with such a knucklebrain idea. Either for money, laughs or as a result of various mind-fluffing chemicals.

They hang around multiple street corners asking you if you want to take a free stress test. The first time they asked, I complied. Asked me to grip these metal cylinders and they'd gauge my stress levels through some manner of bad science. As soon as that's over with they try and peddle books about Dianetics. Accursed thing.
After that, they kept on asking me, sometimes twice a day whenever I passed them. The same people too.

Now that wouldn't surprise me, the amount of Star Wars geeks that put Jedi under religion on application forms is unbelievable.

Tom Cruise is a freak. They have chosen the right spokesperson for their "religion".

Re: Church of Scientology lol
We should all make a monstergamer religion, i bet people are dumb enough to follow. Just think, we dont have to pay tax on it, we could make a lot of money, and our forum would grow much larger in size.

Re: Church of Scientology lol
Quote:
Scientology is the study and handling of the spirit in relationship to itself, others and all of life. The religion comprises a body of knowledge extending from certain fundamental truths. Prime among these:
Man is an immortal, spiritual being. His experience extends well beyond a single lifetime. His capabilities are unlimited, even if not presently realized — and those capabilities can be realized. He is able to not only solve his own problems, accomplish his goals and gain lasting happiness, but also achieve new, higher states of awareness and ability.
|
You have to be kidding me? Immortal? Only spiritual? Than what in the hell do they believe this little thing is that is called flesh and physical body parts? Crazy.
Oh wait, here it is:
Quote:
Man consists of three parts. The first of these is the spirit, called in Scientology the thetan (from the Greek letter theta, meaning "thought" or "spirit"), which is the individual himself.
The second of these parts is the mind. The thetan uses his mind as a communication and control system between himself and his environment.
The third of these parts is the body. The body is not the person.
The most important of the three parts of man is the thetan, which is the spirit, or you.
|
Our body is not us? What?
