A&E "Investigative Reports" Scientology - Part 8

[johnnymexica]

Will scientology increase my girth?

[MegaIanlee]

@trakomako its not new u better pick the right one..u can join islam..k atleast they wont charge u 3-5 hundred grand 2 help your dumb fucin assss

[martincommrad]

4:05 U know, I was homeless once, and one of the shelters I stayed in--which seemed a lot like a cult--was ran by a church. Most of the church's parishioners were former drug addicts and prisoners. Although this isn't necessarily a bad thing, sects will recruit anybody they feel will support their cause. Even people like me who once believed that his mind could never be controlled--or, at least, affected uncharacteristically by the given circumstances.

[paradoxcal]

I'm gonna try to hit the lotto so I can become "clear"

[jayhawk88z]

God hates Scientology

[Hulkmania316]

racing against the clock? say what?

[SharksKid]

I am writing a new science fiction novel. It concerns the transmission of intergalactic secrets from an extraterrestrial warlord named Weinu to a man on Earth chosen to receive these secrets: F Mon Flubbard, a Jamaican fire insurance salesman. The book concerns his adventures as a naval war failure and subsequent mental illness and descent into chronic masturbation and listening to boy bands all the time. Please buy it.

[tritan74]

I tried to join but I did not have any credit or a Lot of money

[SpecialEdward121]

00:36: "That's the world I want, for my son, for my family & for myself."

Yeah except YOUR SON IS DEAD BECAUSE OF SCIENTOLOGY.

John, just admit that you sucked some guys dick or fucked some guy up the ass... NONE OF US REALLY CARE WHO YOU FUCK!

Your SON IS DEAD.

Fuck Scientology.

Was it worth it? Was it worth your precious little boy's life?

[yakmanmaurer]

@SpecialEdward121 this was clearly made before his son died, but don't get me wrong, I'm with you on the fuck Scientology part

[mattezyk69]

Scientology is a greedy, money-making scam, operating as a criminal racket, disguised as a cult, parading as a religion, hiding behind 400+ front groups.

I remember distinctly saying, before the internet became as big as it is, that the internet was the cult of $cientology's biggest problem. Truth and fact at people's fingertips runs counter to the lies and sham that the cult promotes. L Con Hubbard would have a heart attack.

[carrielynngrayson]

I had a friend who was interested, but they told her she was "too fat and too poor". So, they say the programs are available to anyone, but they are really NOT!!! I am personally glad they refused her!!!!

[dubious64]

these drug and literacy programs are only a front...once the basic program is complete, the brainwashing begins...1000% the truth.

[redrusty66]

Nice balanced docu, enjoyed it...and remember, you do NOT have to join or be a member of the "Church Of Sicentology" to be a Scientologist!

[rsouthern]

Scientology, is my fucking ticket out of here with escaping everything churches, government, religious families. Just call them fuckers up, tell them you need protection from NWO, reptilian race, family elite, stupid american zombies, Anti-Christ Christians(thats all Christians), Muslim submissive, authoritarians, due to spiritual ritual abuse and your inn the front gates to heaven,includes lawyer. Get an official death certificate sent to your folks, while your new identity comes in the mail

[martincommrad]

OH, SHUT THE FUCK UP ISSAC HAYES. U sound like such an idiot. I'd luv to see u in an episode of South Park playing yourself. Those kids would talk some sense into ya.

[FreedumbFighter28]

I thought catholics were warped, but these guys got it all over em'.

[shallah3]

"its not run by the church....its just very supported by the church" lmaooooo

i burst out laughing when i heard that

[DainEllis]

AND YOUR CHURCH IS NOT FULL OF CRIMMINALS , WHO KILL , SCARE , AND TRY TO BRAKE ALL FAMILIES APART , YA YOU ARE RUINING THE EARTH YES YOU SEE CHURCHES , ALL THE TIME AT PRISONS , THERE IS A GROUP OF X X SCIENTOLEGEST WHO TOOK SOME A BIT A IT AND MADE IT BETTER WITH NO COST , FREE FOR ALL

[jbdream3]

Okay Johnny Travolta, then how did your son die?!

[thpriest15]

"i get relief every time i hear those words because that's the world i want"

I think it's the world most people want, John...though there does exist something called being realistic.

[globe255]

Its a dangerous cult. The worst thing, scientologists are spread around the society in very many countries in the world.

[AmusedChild]

"I don't know any church anywhere that wants to get its members from murderers, rapists, and criminals." Oh, come on, babe. Most of those people are going to get out someday - and by the same token, plenty of "churches" bilk millions from the poor, the gullible, and the desperate. Of course Scientology is looking for new members! It took its cue from televangelists, from other pyramid schemes.

[thpriest15]

fyi

Mike Rinder is no longer a member, and has spoken out against the church in the past :P

[HipHopcheerleader]

human beings are so desperate to get the answers they allow themselves to be hustled.....never mentioned god....it's your fault that you have not developed telekanesis

[equallyeasilyfuqyou]

john travoltas son is dead now

pwned

[fraterlucifer888]

4:04 the chick says "she wants to help those ppl,but she wouldnt want to fill her church up with them"she doesnt know of any church that recruits criminals, is she sposed to be defending Co$? I dont believe in religion but nonetheless christianity and islam doesnt seem to have the better than thou attitude towards Xcons and ex drug addicts in fact they openly preach these ppl once redeemed are worthy of grace,that should be a great big red flag aganst scientology right there,Co$ is a cult

[brianismynamo55]

It is to get people into the church of Scientology.

[fvckinnoob]

HEY,Sppellling is irrelevent...irrelivant...irre­levant...dont matter!

Try Spellcheck before you post a comment dumbasses

[phantom4x4]

why are all the arguments on christians and scientolgist what about the muslims? what about islam? arent they cults as well?

[Edwarddoom]

Muslims, Christians and the islamic are not cults they dont come under the international Definition of Cult ..... scientology is seen by a lot of people to come under the definition

[marcus3379]

Christians run prison programs as well.

[SatanicVampireCorpse]

Scientology is a hypocrisy. They can be compared to the National Socialists. They cause more suffering than they make peace, they only want to appear as idealistic. Scientology is the epitome of disgust and hypocrisy in this world. All they have running for them in Psychology is propaganda.

[mikebrown1156]

Yes they sued C.A.N into bankruptsy and now Scientology owns the trademark and tradename of C.A.N. and now use it to recruit new members. How about that!

[eric777100763]

CAN(CULT AWARENESS NETWORK) was sued and ownership has been taken by scientology as I understand it!

[eric777100763]

agreed, the pope is just as false as L R HUBBARD!!

[JRS1982]

ironic that Scientology has nothing to do with science.

[MATHEMATICS231]

i feel sad for travolta's son.....he died cos travolta was an ass. he could have saved his son by treating him. travolta , issac hayes are all crazy.

every religion that says u should pay me to get help is fake. every religion that says people outside the religion "fare game" is a terroist organisation

[sreif78]

Guess his son just let the Thetans control him.

[MrFagenabler]

dead son. bah :32

[tanfoculta]

0:32-0:39

Your son, eh?

[harveydents]

Your more confident Travolta? well guess what douche bag most of that "tech" is psychology based theroey which you guys hate, but since l ron stole it and wrapped it in sci fi wwrapping paper its ok

[harveydents]

I got a copy of what the READING TECH is that l ron ubbard "CREATED" and showed it to my family who are all phd;s i education and they said it is a rip off of elementary programs

[harveydents]

you want that for your son travolta you mean jett the one you killed because he needed to be on medication>

[DJfoam]

They build those things to be starved from drugs.

[indo3000]

it can be argued that all regions are cults

[chodaboy51500]

True, but most religions do not require expensive sessions or indentured servitude. Most religions do not copyright and hide their doctrine from the general public and feed it too you in little bits as they drain your bank account.

[paddy9465]

The true test of ANY organization or religion is transperancy.

SECRECY = CORRUPTION!!!

[DJfoam]

Not freemasons.

[magus5555]

09:29 and why is always nucleur holocaust..? and why are they always racing agaisn't time in these cults??

[chodaboy51500]

Because if you are racing against time, it leaves you less time to think about what you are getting in to.

[magus5555]

06:11 Yeah it just cost thousands to get the message

[skunknumerouno]

That is ingenious to make your adversary go bankrupt and then take them over like that! Wow!

[11Jamie11]

4:00 "I don't know that I wanna fill my church up with............ y'know."

No, go ahead, say it. Say it out loud.

[tryss]

back in the days scientology was not easy to disprove since it was one word against another... nowadays anyone can look up the honest agenda of scientology with a few keystrokes.

basically the internet damaged scientology the most! thank god for the internet... things would've been different.

[iguire]

You gotta give it to L Ron.......hands down, the best con of the 20th century!

[Crijevo]

'This planet is not a happy place to be...'

Scientology seems to be among obvious proofs of that fact.

[dcall88]

the director of scientology is a dick

[hazel321f]

I dont think that these celebertys really have any relation to realism, or any foundation of thought. Its strange, they have all this greatness about them, all this hard work and so many great films to speak of and they still cant think. werid

[ryan0666]

whjo is for murdering them

[LtSurge659]

04:09

Ignorance

[zambimaru]

That girl Tammy Terrenzi is an idiot. Other religions like Christianity are always trying to get new converts by going to prisions and preaching to inmates. They don't care what their crimes are.

[adolfhitler1789]

Isaac Hayes is a retard

[pata713]

like they said you can make any set of religious belief sound nutty, christianity was considered a cult by the romans and jews.

[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]

6:38 - hear Jason Beghe!

[11Jamie11]

Good call!

What a guy. Here's his 2 hour interview after leaving the cult: watch?v=KHb0BZyF5Ok

And... that commercial is hilarious. What a bunch of weirdos!

[43anonymous]

What did Rinder know? Why did Rinder blow?

[LFraudHubbard]

He knows if he ever opens his mouth he could end up the victim of a suspicious suicide!

[Borbnert]

The REAL question is; WHO did Rinder blow? My money's on Miscavige and Cruise.

[rodium]

Rinder is a freeeeeaaaaakK! He is an Right winged Nazi! what a c U N T! Jeez.

[MissNophi2U]

they have a point

teach the children

get the druggies clean

manipulative religious types have been doing it for years

why not them

it helps

but their religion sounds insane.

[kevinivers]

Xenu is coming.  Look busy.

[LFraudHubbard]

LOL God stuff

[dcopley51]

A world without criminals? The CO$ are the criminals!!

[xenubarb]

What good is a perfect world to Travolta's neglected, autistic son?

Kid's in his late teens and can't even talk.

Scientology sure hasn't helped him with anything.

[Kitsune1282]

That poor son of a scilon.

Wait... since he can't grasp Hubbard's 'tech he can't get on the Bridge; therefore he - and every mentally retarded person on the planet - is excluded from the sci's happy psych/SP-free utopia. And considering their style of "childcare" earlier... if he was an ordinary sci's kid he'd probably be cockroach food by now *shudder*.

[11Jamie11]

"What good is a perfect world to Travolta's neglected, autistic son?

Kid's in his late teens and can't even talk.

Scientology sure hasn't helped him with anything."

Your comment was certainly right on target, as Jett Travolta has now actually -- and sadly -- passed on from this life.

I didn't know him or any of the Travoltas, and all debate aside I am very sorry to see this happen and the Travoltas have my sympathy in it.

That said... what will it take to wake you people up?!?

[xenubarb]

Teh ghod, yeah.

Wrote that comment 10 months ago; not claiming prescience but perhaps his death was inevitable, as his parents were firmly in denial that Jett was autistic.

They still claim Kawasaki Syndrome affected the kid, even though it doesn't affect teens and doesn't cause seizures. However, saying your kid has a reaction to "environmental toxins" is much more in step with Scientology beliefs. You see, autism doesn't exist in their world.

[charlieonehorse]

why the fuck is this shit tax exempt?

[nekedemus]

Scientology is a criminal organisation.

Rotten in the core.

LRH is fail

[suppressiveelite]

All the money pumped into these anti-drug programs are just publicity stunts to promote Scientology, to masquerade its sinister core of wanting absolute control over members and taking over the entire world. How typical. Don't fall for that bullshit

[blessyercottons]

Rinder has now blown

[witheyes2c]

Jerimiah Gutman's comment about the pope vs scientology was right on.

[clipboardcrotch]

Execpt I don't have to pay an admittance fee to go and worship at a Catholic Church.

[witheyes2c]

Catholics don't pay tithe? I'm not being saracastic or anything. I'm asking a genuine question.

[rafaelmondini]

They pay if they want to, they don't have to leave the faith if they do otherwise.

[nfest8]

No church program! No tax exempt!

[hunterswine]

unreal. the c.o.s. is sick! they are ill and need help getting back in touch. makes me so sad.anyone can change their life. ANYONE! all you need is yourself and the right decision.these sci nuts are so void of anything real, that they choose to fill up on crap. sad

[GEMMFUNKK]

the bible and quran has mada billions already moron there like 2000 yrs old

[d0dgerdante]

if you're so willing to help people you would spread your technqiues and books and all that bullshit freely! to everyone! i mean the bible is free, the quran too. and if i wanna learn everything about buddhism, i can buy myself a ticket to tibet, where the munks will welcome me and teach my everything they know with great passion! and guess what, its all for free! I think L.Ron Hubbard said something like: "the best way to make a million dollars is to start your own religion"

[kmiller85]

Virtually every single response that Rinder gives, to the evidence that his "church" is a malicious fraud, is either an ad hominem attack or a naked denial with nothing to support it. He is a truly despicable person, and if A&E had any guts they would have asked for more than a flat "we're being persecuted" response.

[babystinky]

I noticed something, when Scientologist's give their testimony they all (everyone I have seen so far) use similar words or phrasing, this tells me that it is either contrived or programed in.

[adam946]

time cube > scientology --- lmao

time cube is way more sane than scientology hahaha

[atchimew]

Scientology to me seems as crazy as any other religion. The problem is that some people are naturally insane, and therefore take things to an illusional new level. Reminds me of Trekies and Jedi dreamers...

[candidnt]

Placido Domingo's son is a Scientologist? WHY DAMMIT WHY

"I don't know of any church anywhere that would make its member base of criminals or murderers or rapists" Except for, you know, every Christian mission church everywhere. Way to go, lady.

[tak178]

And so you have the right to judge religion? Nope, ya don't.

[candidnt]

Um, yes I do. Everyone does. You are perfectly free to go around dressed like a retard, but I'm also perfectly free to call you a retard. You people think that just because objective truth about a higher power can't ever be known that it's impossible to judge. The people who are too scared to "judge religion" are the people who let shit like Scientology happen.

PS: Victoria's Secret is more of a legitimate religion than Scientology. Sexier, too.

[MyKeyFilms1985]

HAHAHAHAHAHAH...and victoria's secret helps more people.

[jamescegilbert]

And you wonder why europeans think Americans are crazy. Its not a religion, its science fiction mixed with brain washing!!! If you see one of these people please slap them in the face. I heard if hard enough this might bring them back to reality!!!

[Richardgwm]

xenu died for our sins.

[hokiethug]

Travolta, what would Mr. Kotter think? @#%@ink cult.

[k9forkids]

Scientology was founded in th 50's by an Sience Fiction Writer, That is not a religion, It is a Corporation!

[BullDog762]

Umm, you crazy freaks are criminals, you killed Lisa McPherson amongst a list of others, you are contributing to the increase of criminals in the world. And ron hubbard died of a drug overdose, very ironic considering he founded a cult that doesn't believe in drug use or distribution. You crazy f***s are the biggest dillusional hypocrits known to man kind.

[Deldrone]

@BullDog762 They're not crazy, they're just ignorant and misled. Like all religious people are.

[smittytimes]

I bet travolta's handlers made sure he was wearing a US army uniform while he was talking about how great it all is. These people are master manipulators.

[ASDJFHVGADJHBDAVHBAV]

scumbags

[wuerrang]

Travolta: I get a relief when I hear what I want! Been in it 30 yrs; Im fat and the sheeple of the planet love me.

Scientology Lectures to 1000's of Public School Kids, "We're just here to help your son read"

Scientology sets up gay sweat lodges in prisons!

I agree with them in that Scientology is no better or worse than Catholicism. They both have a ton of money!

[camper089]

just look what Ron L. Hubbards son is saying about his father and that "church"

xenu-directory net / victims / hubbard1 html

please fix the link

[erkekler]

All of the celebrities shown in this documentary are breathtakingly stupid. Travolta, Cruise, Hayes, and Elfman can barely utter a coherent sentence. What morons. No one should doubt for a second that scientology is at core a tax evasion racket, as L. Ron mother-Hubbard said himself before he died (at a young age) a madman and fugitive from justice.

[qwerty1978197878]

They lernt their scaring off tack ticks from the the zionists.. Every one knows what happens to anyone that merely critisises Israel.. They get ruined and labelled anti-semetic.. when in fact there are jews and Rabbis that are anti-semetic.

Semetic means basicaly the children of Abraham..Arabs are also Semetic..but the zionists dont wont you to know this because they have built a certain stigma to the name anti-semetic.

[planetfall]

Make money. Make more money. Make other people make money.

- L. Ron Hubbard

[marchinvietnam]

Yes, the Pope can spread Catholicism, but being a member of the church is free, tithing is optional, and the life lessons of the religion are free and not copyrighted: it's called The Bible. Same with Judaism, Islam, Buddhism and Hinduism. Question any religion which required money of you to improve your life.

[RAQDES]

SHADOW WALKERS

[beturner]

you know how scientology sucks people in? they are black mailed because they initially have to reveal all of their embarressing secrets and thus it is used against them to ruin their stardom. enough said.

[maximus1939]

FUCK SCIENTOLOGY nothing more then scheme and brain washing . Clewer peoples fuck weak minded of their moneys

[4un4o]

FU JT

[4un4o]

FUCK JOHN TRAVOLTA, FUCK TOM CRUISE.

[4un4o]

FUCK A&E, FUCK SCIENTOLOGY

[Ironhead097]

P.S. Battle feild earth can be found on the bottom of the $5.99 bin in any walmart if anyones interested in watching...yeah...worth every penny

P.P.S. for a good laugh check out tomcruiseisnuts dot com

[Ironhead097]

stand up to them and you'll have the brownshirts follow you home. you'll be labeled a deviant publicly, and your life will be ruined...I don't see too many people giving them a hard time for what they actually believe...yeah the xenu things a bit weird...but me personally I can respect it, and all i would like in return is that they would respect my right to not believe what they believe, I think the response would be "WHAT ARE YOUR CRIMES?!"

[Ironhead097]

I see where you're going with the Hitler referance, and I agree.

but be careful, that can be taken way out of context. Scientology is an elitist, and fascist organization. the only people that benifit from it in the long run are the ones with the bucks to go all the way with it, like the holywood elite, who are basicly walking talking billboards for scientology "how can tom cruise and jon tavolta be wrong?"

[odinindahouse]

scientolgists claim to respect all religions and aknowledge, that every person has the right to choose what to believe. isaac hayes left south park, because that show made fun of scientology. what a fine african/american actor. problem is, if scientology respects mankinds religion, why didnt he leave, when south park made fun about jesus, jews, mormons and the islam?

[Turandot2006]

I believe religion should serve for the betterment of your fellow man and should not cost anyone a thing?..... as in it should be for Free and accessible to all. Any religion that asks for money in exchange for service is such a turn off.

[TheRenegadesUK]

Battlefield earth was without doubt the worst film made as a summer blockbuster in the last couple of decades. The plot was pure nonsense, the dialogue was laughable, and half the cast really wish that they never appeared in it. i.e. Forrest Whittaker

[odinindahouse]

your right. hubbard sucked even as a si-fi writer. thats why he claims that those aliens that were dropped into vulcanos 75 000 000.00 yrs ago cam in DC-8 airplains, he couldent even come up with a spaceship. he was such a dumm man. scientology says that the mere fact that rose to become the worlds "savior" shows he was a genius! well, hitler accomplished more in 12 yrs than hubbard ever will, not even after made up millions of years!

[judgeetox]

So far it seems to me that LRon prob. traveled the world as a vagabond writer. Stealing bits of the various faiths, practices, disciplines, and religions and stringing them together around some stories he wrote. Mix a dash of Freudian mind control theories later on and voila! These are great words, but why has LRon never given credit to those that inspired his ideas? Textbook sociopath.

C'mon.....has anyone here actually SEEN "Battlefield Earth"? PEEEW

[judgeetox]

[badnewswade]

According to the first part of this doco he's an ex-Satanist... the Church's teachings, with their focus on the self as object of worship, are certainly reminiscent of Satanism. (I'm not a mad Xtian btw)

[briandenis1]

'battlefield earth' is probably one of the 3 or 4 greatest films of the last 50 years. the pure fact that you disparage it tells me that you are a complete moron, and so good luck to you with the rest of your moronic life....

[judgeetox]

No, it was the stupidest film ever made.....c'mon, near the end the humans went from barely able to use a simple lever, to poking a Harrier jet with a spear, to being able to fly it and operate the systems the next day.....gee, that must be what LRon was talking about. Just by stating that about the film warrents you unfit to comment on anything. Thanks for posting!

[Turandot29]

I had read how the Cult Awareness Network, that exists to this very day, was taken over by Scientology. An unwary person contacts that organization not knowing they have walked into the Belly of the Beast.

[Turandot29]

Scientologists are hopping mad that the silly secrets of level Operating Thetan III have been laid bare for all to see.

It's rather like the uber-secret Mormon temple rites that are now all over the 'net.

[lousaffire]

the words are great but do they accuratly represent the fact, who really knows
