So, how is it different than any other religion?

Just saying "How is this different from any other religion?" repeatedly, doesn't add anything to the conversation.

If you are willing to put proof behind your claims, so that one may dispute it... that would be different.

I, myself, have never told anyone that they can't go see a psychiatrist because "Science is Evil!". Thats just crazy talk, I want people to do whatever it takes for them to get better. Just because people claim to be religious groups, doesn't make it so. Heck, the KKK claims to be a religious group... but, every denomination of Christianity swears that they aren't. Their beliefs hurt people and that isn't right.

Scientologists are closer to KKK than other religions.

I've got 2 good vids for you.

I was just asking a question not making a claim. Altho if you asked me I would say that there is no difference.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAH!

It would be funny, if you wasn't so misguided about things that cause millions of people pain and death. For instance, about how 'your own' people have a bad time in Iraq: http://www.christiansofiraq.com/deathsquadoct.206.html Gee, The KKK had massive death squads too right, not like it were some stupid averagely organized inbreed rednecks, right?

Don't worry, I can find Death Squads, or even genocide, done by Christians too if you want. The point however is that all religions have bad in them, not just Scientology, or Scientology as extremest of them. In theory, the weird alien-myths of Scientology could be harmless. Scientology however has taken a route that just about all religions on this world went, and goes trough: A period of extortion, (mental) abuse and even murder.

About Scientology: (the only way Scientology could even become normal, if it would stop being a cult, but a massive religion. That isn't going to happen, because at the moment it sucks way, way to much, so lets hope Scientology dies out... fast.)

And finally, I would like to say Tom Cruise is a totally lame stupid in-the-closet wanker.

You make me laugh sometimes with your rash statements of "Misguidance". Not only that, but don't forget your calling them "My People". I didn't take them to raise, and I didn't teach them religion. I don't know those people, and based on their acts, I can say that I don't want to meet them.

Good, while you laugh, realize your statement 'Scientologists are closer to KKK than other religions.' is wrong, and pay some attention to the victims of (certain parts of) religions that are far more like the KKK then Scientology and, sadly, beyond the KKK.

I agree. Every religion has had dark periods where they kill in the name of their god. That's why the Crusades and the Salem Witch Trials began. Its also at least part of the reason for the destruction of the Twin Towers by Afganistan. Things like these are part of the reason I became Athiest.

you are all ignorant fools, If we were talking about christianity like this, there would be flamers here. Am I the only scientologist? YOu should all be banned for saying this type of stuff against us. I think it is crazy how chsitians believe that jesus came back after he had died and how the death of jesus just summoned a giant storm. and especially the story of noahs ark, that stuff is way more crazier than our thoery.

Darn! I thought you had proven my point! But surely there is one....

I read Battlefield Earth. It's one of the stupidest sci-fi books I ever read but hugely entertaining. I recommended it to anyone who likes space operas.
