A&E "Investigative Reports" Scientology - Part 4

[missladawnable]

um, so Scientologists believe in reincarnation, now? Wow...are there gummy bears and rainbows and lollipops there?? Who the F@ck are these people????

[Kukadin]

@missladawnable Reincarnation is what throws you off? Not the whole alien thing?

[missladawnable]

@Kukadin Funny it took you so long to respond, but I understand how much feedback this particular subject generates. I don't believe in any of the hype of Scientology, nor do I have much to do with religions started on a bar bet. Can't merge one belief with beliefs of other religions if the basis is "aliens", so reincarnation would be a way to pass themselves off as being "open minded" and bring new people in, now wouldn't it?

[SharksKid]

Scientology preys on the insecure and emotionally vulnerable, regardless of how smart they may be. Intelligence is useless when you are emotionally vulnerable. Thus: USE YOUR HEAD! If it smells bad, don't eat it . . . Scientology reeks.

[79274333]

Give me your money or your thetans will throw you in a vocano

[cellblockearth]

Shut up John Travolta! You're a brainwashed moron. Get your head out of the sand.

[MrSkinz1980]

Fuck L Ron Hubbard and Fuck all his clones.

[jonathanmelia]

Why does it take so long for this feaking documentary to get to the COST of the thing? Travolta: "They wouldn't do it if it wasn't helping." They target vulnerable people through their personality tests, humiliate them, and convice them through hard sell that Scientology can help.

[FreedumbFighter28]

Fucking Portland!!!! You fucking assholes........you guys owe all of us big time........Well not me, I am not a sucker. I wish these people would give me there cash. I'll tell them to be good people and electro-shock them.

[Tsnore]

L. Ron Flubbard resembled Howard Hughes toward the latter's demise.

[shallah3]

wow, i had no idea he wrote battlefield earth...i guess that explains why travolta was in it, as well as why it was the worst fuckin movie ive seen lol

[SpaceVulcan]

1:55 very naive defence: they've been sued because people payed BEFORE they knew what the courses were about and BEFORE they could see that it didn't help them, isn't it?

[Auntkekebaby]

Why a separate division for the sole purpose of recruiting celebrities? It’s to make it more credible. Today the celebrity is worshipped. If a lot of people know your face that MUST mean you're special right? I want to be a part of my favorite actors group. I hope we’re not THAT needy.

[DainEllis]

NO REAL CHURCH CHARGES , YOU CAN DONATE , BUT ALL ARE TREATED EGUEAL SO I DONT GET HOW THE CALL THEM SELVES A CHURCH , AND YOU HAVE THE CATHOLIC AND LUTHERAN , AMONG MANY MORE THAT PAYS PEOPLES RENT , HELP WTH FOOD , AND A PLACE TO SEEP THIS CANNOT BE CALLED ANYTHING BUT AWAY TO HELL AND THE EVERAFTER THAT

[jbdream3]

I think Hubbard was a Bi Polar Manic Depressive.

[globe255]

There should be a limit for how much you need to pay for a course of a certain character. Why cant the government control it? What about spread out some information about courses, about how much you have to pay for them, simply as a warning, so people not easily will be trapped? Well now i think i just gave an idea that could mean a lot, if it is handled correct.

[fraterlucifer888]

spirituality and or personal wellbeing whatever you call it should be completely free,unfortunatley $cientology as a cult fits right into to the american/western consumer mentality,"happiness can be bought" $cientology is a dangerous cult simply for the fact that ppl will pay to pull the wool over thier own eyes and they exploit that ideal,its escapist bullshit,,,mental prozac from a false psychology

[scottybanning]

Hey Whatever gets you thru a better live, more power to you

[Fogslifted]

John Travolta , the more I see of him defending or just talking about this bullshit religion. The more of an idiot he becomes. He, as well as Cruise and the other celebrities are real douche bags! Unlike the "regular" people that belong, these celebrities have access to the internet and I'm sure have read the public and ex-member's complaints and accusations. And yet they still give their money and ignore the truth! These people are fuckin' idiots! They can't see they're being used for PR only!

[MrSahib23]

scientology works people who are for and against this religion should be taken into consideration but if you donot try it yourself you will never know.....dillon

[rexspe]

Scientology is proof that people will buy anything. Fucking lunacy.

[core1976scotland]

E-bay is even bigger proof,People buy houses on the strenth of a picture! chances are it will be the front of a dolls house they are seeing.

[MrSahib23]

scientology is not lunacy ..trust me this tech works with a capital w...dillon

[Fogslifted]

Whatever it is the does work has been adopted from other programs. And can be acquired and applied for free! Those exercises, LRH calls "Tech", that do help and work are not LRH's original ideas or inventions! There is no "Clear"! Or "Perfect Being". We're all free to believe what we want. So I'm happy your happy. But I believe your being ripped off without realizing it. Why else would people who have so many years leave? At some point everyone realizes it's a con. My best to you. Take care.

[murderousbastard83]

@Fogslifted Too bad all religion is a con! Lol.

[Canucklesandwich]

is it just me, or does hubbard's son look and talk like Bubbles from Trailer Park Boys?

[sunrah29]

@Canucklesandwich OMG he even talks like bubbles!

[robba01]

Mini poll - do you think Eric Sherman has ever had sex in his life?

[doctorbenjiphd]

cracks me up when jentzech says 1983 as 'nineteen hundred eighty-three'... fuckin scientologists living in your own fantasy world yeah douchebag youre gonna be around in the year eighty seven hundred eighty three

[fluhks]

John Travolta was a hottie.

[flamingmonkays]

His fingerprints being on the document that was signed in 1983, in no way meant he was alive.

[BigMamaJamma]

True, but remember, this was 1983. And tech. was not like it is today.

[11Jamie11]

Yeah, 1983 people still believed in Michael Jackson.

[BigMamaJamma]

LOL...well it seems that fashion and hair styles are not the only things that we are wondering "What in the hell were we thinking!!"

[leprechaunrockstar]

um bobgee...if your going to correct someone on misquoting something...then YOU might want to get it correct yourself before scolding someone.....it states ''the LOVE of money is the root of all evil"...so....if YOUR going to quote, quote correctly.

[cowgirltou]

If ur an adult u can belive what ever u want......but I know a tree is a tree and god well....Ive never met him....

[diablodiablodiablo]

This motherfucker was a smart one, he got rich thanks to peoples stupidity/faith, i think no one can blame him for doing that, most religions do exactly the same. The bad thing is the whole shit continues today!!!

[bobgee1999]

The Bible, of course, doesn't say that money is the root of all evil.  It says money is "AT" the root of all evil. If you're going to quote, quote correctly.

Anyway, I fully support Scientology. It is quackery and bullshit, naturally, but ALL religion is quackery and bullshit. Scientology performs one & only one important service: it helps gives religion the bad name it deserves.

Thetans and Xenu are no more idiotic than some guy rising from the dead and walking on water.

[cheerupemokid8888]

actually it "the love of money" is the root of all evil in james letter

[Imariscent]

John has lost my respect. Of course you don't see it, all you get to do is auditing, with all the money you are bringing these people. Travolta YOU SUCK!

[LFraudHubbard]

Scientology =

Ongoing Criminal Organization =

(RICO)Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt

Organizations Act and,

(Anti-SLAPP) Strategic Lawsuit against

Public Participation] =

Camp FED.

Expect It

[43anonymous]

Graham BERRY! Yo what up, homey.

[tigerlilly311]

"A donation is requested" So I can get auditing without paying? Bullshit.

[CheckMate77777]

battlefield earth sucks

[maximusdecimus888]

Some people would pay for a turd if it were wrapped in a pretty enough package.

[theBigTakeover]

haha lou dobbs 40 years ago.

[chris1973Ohio]

John Travolta became a Scientologist to cure him from being a butt slamming faggot cocksucker, this is the truth

[HimmiJoe]

Here's the difference. Scientology, a cult, demands you pay for their services whereas Christianity, a religion, asks for a donation.

Both pulling your wallets.

[thomasd1318]

Christ never asked anyone for money,the LOVE of money is the root of all evil -BIBLE

[HimmiJoe]

Christianity began after Christ, and definitely doesn't abide by his teachings. Just look at the Vatican. If vanity is unchristian, then the Vatican is unchristian.

[thomasd1318]

Christianity was started while Christ was still alive. I dont know what Bible your reading, but Christians (while yet sinners) do follow Christs' word (the Bible). I'm not sure how the vatican has anything to do with "vanity" or with how Christians serve GOD. Its inception was in 1554 AD and started well after Christianity began. The size or material it was built with has nothing to do with becoming a Christian but was probally used to magnify the office of the pope. Get saved Himmijoe.

[murderousbastard83]

@thomasd1318 Christianity is just another widespread cult. Nothing more. No different than Scientology, we just have evidence that Hubbard was a crackpot cause it happened in the last century.

[HelloWorld1947]

@murderousbastard83 Pity that u feel that way. Makes you wonder how there has not been one fault found in the BIBLE (the true word of Jesus) w/ so many people trying but failing each and every time since the begining of time. it just makes you wonder why people hate it so much......cuz the truth is SO powerful, they would rather bash it than face it. Read Romans in the Bible. remember he loves u no matter what, and only wants 2 b a part of ur life, if u would let him.

[murderousbastard83]

@HelloWorld1947 C'mon now. There is plenty of faults in the Bible. Almost every page. The Bible tries to tell us things that we now is not true when using common sense. Your thoery is a nice one but completely unrealistic. I hate ignorance though, and the Bible promotes that. Just like the Qu'ran and the Torah and Dianeticks, or any other religous book trying to peddle easy answers. There are no easy answers in life. That I can be sure of.

[Godsmasher22]

The soul can live outside its body, this is one of the more interesting "discoveries" of Scientolology. What the hell? How was he making these "discoveries?" Especially that xenu bit?

[St0neman]

Didn't you guys know? Hubbard left this earth when the Hale-Bopp comet appeared. He had his roll of quarters with him.

[ericcartman321]

I hope the CIA is watching that cult !

[Richardgwm]

hat is the difference between a cult and a religion? None really.

[TDonTayK]

None!

[tak178]

Major difference. What an insipid statement.

[lord69z]

you used a cool word Gratz.

[candidnt]

You don't pay to confess your sins, dipshit

[opinionatorX]

This crapp does'nt work! There is no God/Jesus involved i this at all. They are all luciferiens. They lead to themselves to be healed and not the almighty power of our lord and Saviour Jesus Christ! Don't be decieved!

[Godsmasher22]

Yeah don't worry. There is no god or jesus involved in that God or Jesus crap either.

[1VLASIC]

This guy is creepy as hell.

[wolfy1488]

whats funny is at the end the man said he could heal anything was either suffering from parkensons or Alzheimer

[cv78es]

BOYCOTT SCIENTOLOGY CELEBRITIES!

[TDonTayK]

Why? Why Give A Fuck What Others Do? Worry About You Your Family And Friend!

[TheGundy]

Why? Why Use Capitals On Every Word? Why?

[donoraen]

Capitals Are The Pwnage!

[wuerrang]

Everyone fighting over the attention and money of mind-numbed sheeple

Scientology -- Uncle Sam -- Pope -- Islam -- Pat Tilson -- Pat Robertson

[wuerrang]

People will believe anything - Look at who put Lil' Bush in charge!

John Trivolta = Vinnie Barbarino of Welcome Back Kotter - BUT FOR REAL! Duh!

[bearmare]

Hey! It's Vinnie Barbararenno! I guess that explains Scientology. If it could resurrect Travolta's career, it can do anything.

[Silentkill666]

$cientology has good intentions in the surface, but thats how you gain the public's support. Hopefully, this whole $cientology thing will blow over after about 20 years when everyone sees how its such a pile of bullshit.

[blackster999]

Imagine if a catholic priest sat there discussing their fee structure for getting into heaven or a buddhist monk discussed his "rate" for achieving nirvana.

[Turandot29]

It's amazing what crap people will believe... and pay thru the nose for the privilege, too!
