Scientologists like Tom Cruise cram all their religous beliefs down other peoples throats, and are part of the reason why Chef is dead, so yes, Scientology sucks.

He doesnt shove it down people throats, hes just crazy.

Scientology was actually invented as a joke. The man who invented it was a rich science fiction writter, and he found out that if you live in the U.S. and start your own church, you dont have to pay taxes. So he took advantage of it to kind of shove it in the government's face about how stupid that law is. After he died, his family kept it going and one thing led to another, its a real religion.

As long as they arent hurting anyone, I dont care. There are some more insane stories and such in other religions, so really this one isnt as weird as it sounds. They arent people I personally like though.

I still like Beck though.

So does scientology worship a god or anything like that?

Not really, its just a belief.

There is quite a large bit you missed out, and thats that aliens are supposed to have braught humans, in a storage pod to earth, and dropping them in volcanos, which released their souls which then gained bodies and formed the human race. (lol, I'm serious but it's hilarious)


I Think the episode of south Park explains it all

Read the old testiment in the bible and compare it. Youll notice sciencolgy is ONE HELL of alot more beliveable and realistic

[YoManGo!]

To be honest thats still more plausable that the scared texts of most religions.

Umm, well isn't that what any religion is? Faith in an entity which cannot be proved right or wrong, so Scientology is actually as believable as any theistic religion.

Coz I can I'm gonna put my RE essay here, it's kinda relevant.

“A God We Can Understand Is No God At All”

Will 10R

It took some time for me to fully work this quote out, at first I did not agree with it at all, my first impression was ‘but people work out their own understanding of their God(s), so clearly they do understand God’. However, the more I think about it, the more I agree with it. For me, organised theistic religion means to place faith in one or more supreme beings. Your beliefs may vary, you may see God as omnipotent (all powerful), monotheistic (just one God), omnipresent and many more. Despite the fact that all religions have a slightly different approach to their views on God, none of them would exist if people weren’t prepared to put a very strong belief into something that cannot possibly be proved to be in existence.

So all religions imply a faith in some greater being, or God and this requires you to trust an entity of which there is no proof of its existence, so no-one can fully understand God. If people worked out exactly what God was about, it would ruin one of, if not the most important and beneficial part of religion, which is that you find your own views and beliefs of God. From these own personal judgements comes what you as an individual gain from your faith, be this hope, discipline, a sense of belonging or anything else, the list is endless. The only reason we are all able to shape and mould these personal opinions is because there is no set understanding of God. The only reason people continue to worship is because there is a mystery about God which only they can decipher.

To a certain degree many religions do, of course have set understandings about what God ‘is’, Christianity and Islam are both monotheistic, so they believe there is only one God, whereas other religions worship several different Gods. From these ‘master beliefs’ comes an infinite number of ‘sub beliefs’ which are generally known only to the one individual.

In conclusion, yes your religion does set you basic understandings of your God, but what you make of these understandings is the important bit. This is what in my opinion religion is all about, being able to make the most of your God by creating your own understandings of Him/Her/It.

But in Scientology, you have OT (operating thetan) levels, that go up to 50 (I think)

And one high level gives you the ability to fly.

Lol a dat, made me laugh SO HARD!!!! Sounds a bit like runescape init. Why would someone believe they can fly after reaching LEVEL 50 OMGAWD!!!1
