What are we going to do about this Scientology crap?

[Wolfstrike]

been watching Leah Remini's show...



I knew Scientology was ripping people off but this is too much.

Their holding people in camps and forcing women to get abortions.

Scientology is a massive Satanic entity in this country.

 

[ScienceRocks]

Blind faith and religion is all crap. Doesn't matter if it is islam or this crap.

 

[BULLDOG]

No reason we should do anything, other than making it possible for people to leave if they want to. People have a right to what ever religious belief they want, no matter how much of a rip off it is.

 

[Nia88]

We do nothing. We help those that are forced to stay in it but leave the rest who choose to stay in it.

I know you conservatives have a hard time grasping the concept of freedom of religion but you can't force people to leave a faith or single out a religion to banned.

The bible isn't too sane either. In fact no religious text is completely rational.

"Satanic"? I think youre mixing up your religions. Satanism is a Christianity thing.

What are we going to do about the Christians too?

 

[The Great Goose]

bah just leave them.

Unfortunately, a lot of people can't resist the promise of eternal life, no matter that it sounds too good to be true. When it comes with your own planet (or 72 virgins), the appeal is almost irresistible.

 

[waltky]

Probably nothing...

... as long as Tom Cruise an' John Travolta...

... are footin' their legal bills.

I agree, but to a point....cults should not be tolerated....Jim Jones is an ever present danger when we have liberals in a society.....

Well, we've seen that the politicians act like the religions, promising things they'll never be able to give, and people buy it time after time after time.

My man Bill Burr nails it, as usual. Start at :53:

What you are telling me that a religion started by a hack science fiction writer isn't true?

Perish the thought.

The kind of people who get involved in Scientology would just get involved with some other cult, maybe the kind that makes you drink the koolaid.

Just can't get worked up over this. The "Legitimate" religions are just as bad or worse.

(Yes, i'm looking at you, Catholicism!)

Agreed. you go after the coercive tactics that are actually illegal, not the dogma, or even the coercive tactics that are NOT illegal.

When they go after the Catholic Church (an organization that allowed pedophilia to go on at a massive scale) with as much enthusiastic fervor as the fake Sci-Fi Cult, then I'll take you all seriously.

People can leave the Catholic Church anytime they want, hell I'm a lapsed Catholic at best.

Your own petty hatreds make you an unreliable debater on this topic. Well that and your overall twattery.

Lots of people have left Scientology... not seeing the problem here.

But the Catholic Church really did hide all those pedophiles all those years.

And so did Penn State, and the US Gymnasts, and other places. Again, your own bias makes you laser in on one group.

I'm surprised they haven't knocked her off yet

Well, why didn't you speak up when the Trump Cult began?
