  • $cientology = Cult

  • See the facts.

  • HEY HAMOLOCH IM YOUR HUCKLBERRY

  • Yes, wonder why they don't like to be a cult yet are so secretive about a lot of what they do. I see that the now infamous Tom Cruise Scientology promotional clip has been taken off YouTube due to 'copyright' issues. Would just make you wonder what it is they have to hide...

  • tom cruise has left the human race and joined the human waste!!!

  • Help us have the Prime Minister rename the so called 'church' of scientology in the UK by signing our online petition via

    w w w.againstscientology. co. uk

    Pass this info on to as many people as possible

  • The Panorama theme tune sounds like Metal Gear Solid, lol

  • For a great self help program check out the book Disco Hypnotic. Just google the title and you'll find it.

  • "Adding comments has been disabled for this video."

    There is a video on Scientology with this advice. Another one where Tom Cruise gives an interview about Psychiatry there are no comments.

    We are being censored!

    What about freedom of speech?

    I guess we are not in China!

  • The Genocidal Father of the Turks, ATATURK, was a Jew and a Freemason. This fact is confirmed on many official Freemason websites, including the California Lodges website. His Jewish roots are corroborated on the Jewwatch website. Jews and Freemasons represent the ruling classes of America. Americans are therefore responsible for the GENOCIDE of the FIRST CHRISTIAN NATION of the World, the Armenians, because Americans worship and elect Jews and Freemasons as their leaders and rulers.

  • Scientology wrecks families the world over - be warned -they disconnect with thier own children mothers fathers - they are brainwashed to do this - THIS IS A CLEAR AND PRESENT DANGER TO THE WORLD - FACT

  • Church of Scientology is once again destroying lives and families.

    LRH LOST SOUL MAKING MORE LOST SOULS - VERY SAD PEOPLE DESTROYING THEIR LIFES AND THEIR FAMILIES.

  • For physical evidence of a second intelligence within yourself (repeatable hand tingles) search YT on LAY GNOSIS 1 BEGIN HERE site truebluehealerDOTcom--Agnostic testimonials

  • absolute tosh

  • fuck scientology xenu can suck my dick

  • Thank the God's for guy's like John and programs like Panorama. There's a good reason Scientolgy is'nt allowed religions status in the UK, and that is that it's akin to the Heavens Gate Cult - it's about money , supression of free thought and taking advantage of the mentally or emotionally vunerable. If there is a god by christ these f**kers are going down.

  • Silviasoft,just love it.

  • To MadisonLee555. You follow a cult that was invented by a man who was a convicted criminal(fraud), drug abuser, liar(made up military record),exile(voluntarily bobbing about on a boat),abuser of people, husband of convicted criminal- in fact, he was as mad as a bag of badgers.

  • John Sweeny describes himself "I look like an exploding tomato and shout like a jet engine and everytime I see it it makes me cringe." Regarding his outburst @ Tommy Davis.

  • Also, if you visit a Church of Scientology they give regular tours and open houses but unlike John Sweeny here you can't just storm in and demand immediate attention. I don't know anywhere you can do that except a hospital, maybe.

  • How can it answer a question that i havnt asked yet?

    Im doing a documentary with channel 4 UK in 2009, lets see what happens then. thers nothing they can do to me. it will be a wal in the park

  • Scientology really isn't that secretive when you consider they published a book called, What is Scientology, which answers any questions that you might want to know!

  • Great Information on Scientology @

  • Dear,Dear MAD666,Nobody cares,how soul destroying it must be for you.Tens of thousands of comments,all negative,still keep searching you might just get lucky and find one.

  • Yahoo!: It's Fate Uncertain, BBC Plans Significant Layoffs, Budget Cuts

    Merlely 3 years ago the BBC experienced their biggest budget cuts in 82 years. The article illustrates "intense criticism on two fronts" the two reasons for this one from the public and one from the critics:

  • Reason #1 The most visible was a dispute with Prime Minister Tony Blair over a BBC radio report that the government distorted intelligence reports. After Public inquiry exonerated the government the corps chair and director general had to step down.

  • Reason#2 "The critics have contended that the BBC's quest for ratings has led to dumbing down and a vulgarization of its programming."

    The information illustrates when a major growing of mistrust and criticism began and how severe it was and how they are even cutting the budget in 2007. See above Google link.

    Boston(dot)com

    The Observer, UK

  • John Sweeny has not been seen or heard since the show aired in May! He'll probably never be used by Panorama again!

    Also, The BBC is now getting a budget cut!

  • Actually he was on last night in the yearly review on one of the digital channels, youtube was also mentioned and it appears as though most people have sided with him.

  • Oh and the bbc has more government investment now than every before, as the UK's expected to completely go digital by 2010, please get your facts straight. Then again you are probably some stupid cult follower.

  • Mad mummys looking for you,play later.

  • For true information go to:

    TrueStoryofScientology(dot)Org­

  • That site is run by scientology I checked it. Therefore it offers nothing impartial. At least it is part of the BBC's mandate to be impartial- and are they seen not to be they are subject to an independent review from OFCOM. From what I have read in the papers OFCOM sided with the BBC on this issue, which leads me to believe you are an idiot who cannot think for yourself or do any research independent from your cult.

  • watch the FULL UNCUT EPISODE of southpark on SCIENTOLOGY, its hilarious! som1 has uploaded it here (in 3 parts). watch it before its banned!!! its contraversial

  • Scientology is currently faceing charges of: Fraud, false imprisonment, assault, extortion, kidnapping, defamation, invasion of privacy, infliction of emotional distress, racketeering, Brainwashing, Undue influence and deceit, Wrongful Death, Torture, and more
  • (H T T P)petitions(dot)pm(dot)gov(dot­)uk(backslash)-Scientology

    An e-petition to Tony Blair--submitted by James Higgs--is currently posted on the 10 Downing Street website. It is asking the British Prime Minister to prevent Scientology from becoming accepted as a religion in the UK. This is not a joke; it is an organized appeal that should be taken seriously. ONLY BRITISH CITIZENS OR RESIDENTS MAY SIGN THE PETITION. Pass on the link to all your British friends and family members.

  • In the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland $ciento£ogy is recognised neither as a church nor a charity. It is, in fact a cult. $ciento£ogists do not like that word, so let me repeat it -- CULT.

  • Attention:

    XENU (dot) NET may occasionally be down due to unprecedented high demand during this hot topic. There is a live mirror site at...

    CLAMBAKE (dot) ORG

  • I have removed and blocked one user for posting the same web link over and over. Your weblinked view in that respect has already been represented several times over. Debate instead of spamming please, if you dare.

  • If you guys want the truth of the story go here... bbcpanorama-exposed . org

  • Is this some new definition of the word "Truth" that we are not currently aware of. Please everyone do go and watch the cult's overstated footbullets. Please report the BBC to OFCOM please sue them `cos we need you to make more of ass out of yourselves. Oh and Mike Rinder looks like Dracula in need of drink.

  • GERNERAL NOTICE: However critical one is of the cult or the BBC, I will not tolerate comments with violent threats. I can understand that emotions are running high but please refrain. Use the power of words wisely. Thank you in advance for your co-operation.

  • CULT!

  • google - operation clambake

    and find out what scientology is really about

  • I notice that the johnaxelwood and blackpanaorama videos from Scientologists have power of veto over comments. Control of opinion or what! I support John Sweeney for standing up to the bully.

  • I know, and its funny because it just proves what Sweeney found out in the documentary. They just don't like criticism. It's one footbullet after another for the cult.

  • Breaking news: Rev Jerry Falwell is dead.

    That's one less cult leader to worry about.

  • Scientologists believe that they have the souls from an ancient alien civilization that have been imprisoned on earth and brainwashed so that they cannot return to their galaxy.

  • More importantly, they also belong to a cult that calls itself a "church" who abuses its own members and critics.

  • Ive got the full documentary scientology and me aired last night if you want to watch it

  • I am happy the International Court, BBC Religious Advisory Council members and the very Broadcasting Code that the BBC and Sweeney are supposed to uphold ALL condemn or forbit the dozens of violationos of human, civil and religious rights taken by this poor man Sweeny and the BBC. And I hope the BBC Executives who allowed this are investigated as to their connections and motives. We have enough real problems in the world to solve without fanatic bigotry.

  • Horseshit from a blowhard. Your cult did exactly the same thing to our Channel 4 when they did a documentary on your CULT and you failed. I hope you for OTT and try to sue. Dig yourselves deeper in the pit of shit your made for yourself. One word: FOOTBULLET.

  • Global rick stfu you god dam cultist FREE KEITH HENSON NOW!!!

  • OK folks, I hope you enjoyed those previous Hubbard quotes. I've got loads more.

  • "When we need somebody haunted we investigate...When we investigate we do so noisily always."

    - L. Ron Hubbard, MANUAL OF JUSTICE, 1959

  • "People attack Scientology, I never forget it, always even the score. People attack auditors, or staff, or organisations, or me. I never forget until the slate is clear."

    - L. Ron Hubbard, MANUAL OF JUSTICE, 1959

  • "MAKE MONEY. MAKE MORE MONEY. MAKE OTHER PEOPLE PRODUCE SO AS TO MAKE MORE MONEY."

    - L. Ron Hubbard, Hubbard Communications Office Policy Letter, 9 March 1972, MS OEC 384

  • "ENEMY SP Order. Fair game. May be deprived of property or injured by any means by any Scientologist without any discipline of the Scientologist. May be tricked, sued or lied to or destroyed."

    [SP = Suppressive Person a.k.a. critic of Scientology]

  • "The names and connections, at this time, of the bitterly opposing enemy are:.... 2. The heads of news media who are also directors of psychiatric front groups......."

    - L Ron Hubbard, HCO, 16 Feb 1969, "TARGETS, DEFENSE"

  • "THE ONLY WAY YOU CAN CONTROL PEOPLE IS TO LIE TO THEM. You can write that down in your book in great big letters. The only way you can control anybody is to lie to them."

    - L. Ron Hubbard, "Off the Time Track," lecture of June 1952, excerpted in JOURNAL OF SCIENTOLOGY issue 18-G, reprinted in TECHNICAL VOLUMES OF DIANETICS & SCIENTOLOGY, vol. 1, p. 418

  • Not quite true. You can also scare them, make them paranoid and keep them living in fear of an exaggerated enemy. Bush usually pulls out all the stops and uses all the above. He is stupid enough to be a Scientologist but he is busy worshipping owls like his daddy.

  • "I'd like to start a religion. That's where the money is."

    - L. Ron Hubbard to Lloyd Eshbach, in 1949; quoted by Eshbach in OVER MY SHOULDER: REFLECTIONS ON A SCIENCE FICTION ERA, Donald M. Grant Publisher. 1983

    (waits for the contrived responses)......

  • Want to know the real story.... go to bbcpanorama-exposed(.org) and watch the short video.

  • The real story as in that you are part of a corrupt organisation that will manufacture lies in the weakest attempt to try and take the pressure away from your doomed cult?? Funny how on your exposed videos everytime Sweeney tries to talk the sound dims down so u cant hear him - got something to hide Alex??

  • Redefining the word "real" is not big and its not clever. Go to the back of the class.

    What OT level are you? Couldn't you lot have just used your MEST (Matter Energy Space Time) sooper powerz and made the Panorama documentary just go away?

    BTW, James Randi is still offering a million dollars for you to prove your OT powers. Visit: randi DOT org and let us know how you get on.

  • I also found it strange how in $cientology's rebutal video they claim that Sweeney refused to go into "church" buildings and when he did go in once he made excuses and left early. Surely they must have proof of these accusations?? no?? At least one scientology camera was on him at all times - even when he wasnt aware of it surely one of you guys must have recorded him saying this? I think not.

  • BBC Panorama, as you'll see in the news clips I put up, went out of their way to get co-operation from the "church" of $cientology. There were a list of things they would not let the BBC do. One of those things was use the term "cult". Red rag to a bull if you ask me. I know, from people who took part in the doucmentary but who weren't on the final edit, that there is a lot more top footage. Probably enough to make another documentary. Lets hope.

  • How funny it is that $cientology claim that the BBC broke their own guidelines 154 times - in the UK scientology is not classed as a religion so their statement is completely false as the guidelines do not protect $cientology!!

  • They did the same thing to a Channel 4 (UK) documentary a few years ago. There is a link to a site with info on the history of all this in one of my video descriptions.

  • You're right, I would'nt say anything to you. Mainly because I would'nt NEED to, their religion does'nt explicitly tell them to harass critics of their religion like Scientology does, and if anyone ever does its a minority. You're NOT being persecuted because of your beliefs, its because of your policy towards anyone critical.

    Why can't you recognise this?

  • Want to know the real story.... go to bbcpanorama-exposed(.org) and watch the short video.

  • Is this some new definition of the word "real" that I was not previously aware of John?

  • Freelancealex is a brainwashed $scientologist Don't believe him or his cults lies

  • Really? Is that why everyone thinks its a cult?

    The fact that you compare yourselves to persecuted Jews and Christians is whats pathetic. They did'nt stalk their critics. Or their familys. Or kill them.

    It seem you're a tad brainwa...sorry, "confused"

  • Re: EmperorofDance - well Scientologists are being persecuted and you are doing it. If I was a Jew or a muslimj you wouldn't dare say anything to me. It's disgusting what you do.

  • "Persecuted" no. Exposed, yes.

  • OK I'll say it again for quentin"hardofhearing" krips.

    The fact is the Scientology is bonafide religion proven in law courts all over the world and you sadly, actually practically pathetically, can't accept that.

    It's over buddy - it's written in stone, in law courts. You just can't handle it and any reasoning (well non-reasoning on your behalf) to disagree is absolutely futile. Grow up.

  • P.S. - UK Charity Commission report on $cientology. Not a bona-fide religion for charitable tax-exempt status. Provides no benefit to the community.

    And "all over the world" includes the UK.

    -- end of --

  • Under that definition that means all religions must fall under that category.

    No the definition you are using in Nazi form is the one that is used to ridicule, belittle and destroy the good name of something.

    The fact is the Scientology is bonafide religion proven in law courts all over the world and you sadly, actually practically pathetically, can't accept that.

  • You fail. I repeat, see: Godwin's Law.

    Check your place on your cult Tone Scale. It seems pretty low.

  • Note to all ethnic minorities in the UK and Colonies(& former):

    Did you know that $cientology refers to all non-scientolgists as "WOGS"? Of course you won't see that on public literature but it is well documented and you can witness it online today and it is used in a demeaning way as if we are inferior.

    [The term "WOG" is a racial slur, similiar to the "n" word in the USA].

  • You really are ill-educated or just plain stupid. SCIENTOLOGY is a bonafide RELIGION proven in law courts all OVER the world.

    You think you are clever calling it something else - but it ain't and you can't stand that.

    By the way you are behaving like a Nazi. You are treating Scientologists in the same way the Nazis treat the Jews. You're way out of order.

  • Read the definition of "CULT" in dictionaries. $cientology fits the bill perfectly - with court backed-up evidence.

    I must now inform you, under the rules of Godwin's Law, that you have lost the entire argument. Nothing you say from now on can rescue your position.

  • PRESS (contd):

    The programme grew its audience by a million viewers during its 30-minute run, ending with a peak of 4.9 million in its second quarter hour.

    Panorama's average of 4.4 million viewers beat the previous high in its new Monday night slot of 4.1 million, for its investigation into the GMTV phone-in scandal last month.

    It was also Panorama's highest audience in any slot since September last year and its investigation into alleged football corruption.

  • That's nothing their viewing used to be 6 million plus. It's a sinking ship. If old Sweeney hadn't lost his rag and it appeared on youtube and associated media it probably would have been about 3 million. Pathetic.

  • The BBC has seriously reprimanded John Sweeney for the outburst, which the journalist has admitted was "wrong and stupid". You said it buddy.

  • Yep, for that outburst. He's human through and through. In the mean time your cult is looking more and more alien. Well done to the cult of $cientology.

  • But the Cult "pulled it in". Why? `Cos Tommy lost his cool and went way OTT on the attempted censoring, spying and bullbaiting. What might work within your cult, doesn't wash in the normal world (our "wog world" as your cult calls it).

  • PRESS: Panorama rant boosts ratings.

    The prospect of seeing Panorama reporter John Sweeney blowing his top at a Church of Scientology spokesman helped the venerable BBC1 current affairs programme to its biggest audience in its new Monday night slot.

    Last night's edition of Panorama, called Scientology and Me, was watched by 4.4 million viewers with a 19% share, according to unofficial overnight figures.

  • Keep those comments coming ... Scientology's getting bigger and bigger thanks you guys!!!

  • Fact and figures please (real ones). Put your money where your mouth is. What about the Super Power building in your mecca od Clearwater FL.? What is it 9 years now and it is still not finished. 9 feckin years! That's how you keep soliciting "donations".

  • It's built you dumb ass.

  • It's not finished by a long chalk, Mr.Denial. Do the research, chump. It is a completely empty shell and one corner has a gaping wide hole running almost from floor to top. Report back when you've gotten a clue.

  • Yeah, but it's built. Have you seen the size of that thing? It's probably one of the biggest churches of any kind on the planet. HUUUGE. I'd like to see what you've built in your day apart from a large chip on your shoulder.

  • 9 years for something no bigger than a large hotel and its still not finished. The cult have been made to pay fines to the city hall for the delays. Do the research.

    I built a castle out of LEGO(tm) once. I finished it too.

  • Ooh Master Builder Quentinburnttoakrisp. Lego - that's difficult. Can you teach me?

  • Go to LEGO dot com. Have fun. Report back when you've finsished your Sooper Powerz Gulag.

  • Ha ha - I can't wait to see your face on opening day ... And you KNOW it's gonna happen.

  • The internet as resource! Yeah right. Ha Ha. Umm ... I think official courts of law have a bit more weight than planet Earth's posting board. Urm and that's Sir Sparky to you.

  • You can find all the offical court documents you need on the internet.

  • Scientology is a non-profit religion. The IRS did the most exhaustive investigation of the church some years ago and found it to be wholly a religious body. Get with the program!!!

  • The IRS does not define a religion sweety.

  • This show was crap. It was all set-up. Get some detractors, get some really old dodgy footage from the 1970's, get a sex pervert. Film any old car in LA and propose that it's following them and gloss it over as proper journalism. It's laughable. I mean honestly this was a joke. Can they really believe people are that stupid to think this is the real thing?

  • You tell `em sparky. Before you do though; use that internets thingummyjig and feckin' clue yourself up first, you cretin.

  • Message to MIKE RINDER (Miscavige's punch bag). You looked like a deer caught in the headlights when you were on TV yesterday lying for the cult. You know you can blow from the cult anytime you want but a good time might be now. Get to an FBI office with the important documents. They can protect you. Don't worry about money. You could write a book about the cult and make a tidy sum. Do it. Do the right thing.

  • The Scientology guy in last nights show was bit on the confrontational side to say the least. Why didn't he speak to the BBC? If it's a religion, what have they to hide? If I was choosing a religion, I wouldn't chose them because of the way he treated the BBC reporter last night.

  • 'Panorama Exposed', wow. They launched a counterattack so quickly, it's amazing and extremely predictable. As soon as someone attacks Scientology, they go right to discrediting them. They did it with reporters, they're doing it with Panorama.

  • They did exactly the same thing to Channel 4 in the UK when they did a documentary on teh cult a few years ago. They've even sued Time magazine and I think it was also the Washington Post. The cult lost.

  • Scientology is a cult and deserves to have its status as a religion revoked.

  • Agreed, are they tax-exempt because they call themselves a "church"?? ALl they do is rake in money via hypnosis, classes and recruitment and it should be taxed.

  • Do to Tommy Davis that your great law enforcement did to David Coresh and the Waco nutters blow them up

  • That's not very funny. No, the real way to stop a cult is to stop its ability to make money out of people by simply getting the truth out.

  • check out panorama exposed!!! Its the documentary done on them!!! ha ha ha!!! Its on

    bbc panorama - exposed . org

  • It is a huge footbullet for the cult of $cientology. No amount of cult propaganda exhonorate them because, well, they are a cult.

  • Oy, what's this?? There may be even more good news on the horizon. Watch this...

    /watch?v=vXeo9dKuYtM

    Key in on the last several seconds of the clip. From the producer of the Panorama piece:"this does not claim to be the definitive Scientology film. We may have to do that another time".

    We shall be waiting, Panorama, we shall be waiting!

  • For those that have not seen the Panorama piece, it's available right now here:

    bbc dot co dot uk slash panorama

    Click "Missed the latest programme?"

  • OK Folks. The cult $cientology is still at work. Please visit this online petition to the Governor of California. 64 year old Keith Henson is waiting in a jail cell not knowing his fate all because of scientology. Read and support please..... tinyurl (DOT) com /2lgwlx

  • C.O.N (Church Of scieNtology), its a CON, i.e. To Con people out of their lives, to rape their minds and their bank accounts. Leaving them feeling unashamedly stupid. This is not a church, nor a cult, nor a religion. It is a BUSINESS, a collection of EVIL CON ARTISTS. If you try to leave this job, they will KILL you. IT IS A CON.

  • Well done John Sweeney for reporting the facts about Scientology. Bully boy Tommy Davis was clearly rattled because Panorama wouldn't be manipulated into reporting it solely from their point of view. Scientology is DANGEROUS, MANIPULATING and can only DAMAGE anyone that gets suckered into their CULT. Scientology is NOT a religion it is most definitely a CULT in every sense of the word.

  • If Scientology is not a cult, may the great Hubbard in the sky strike me dead right now!! Looks like i'm here:)

  • i am a british citizen, that belives in freedom of speach. and had no real view of this cult!!!!!. i watch the bbc panorama programe in full. your video clip is not a ture reflection. of the reporter or the programe. and the cult leaders behavior was far worst than the bbc reporter. maybe you americans should watch the programe in full. before you past jugement. i centainly have a clearer view of scientology now and it is not a good one. this is a cult. A fucked up one aswell.

  • I think it's a cult too, it's sure not a religion. Maybe religious leaders used to behave like that in the middle ages but not in the 21st century!!!

  • For more media gems on the cult of $cientology, see the youtube and google video media from XENUTV (he also has a website XENUTV dot COM with even more stuff). Warning: Some of it is quite upsetting.

  • Well, the programme was nothing short of excellent.

    It can be watched online at the bbc website.

    bbc dot co dot uk/panorama

  • It's so shite it's not even a shitty religion. Isn't the world Americanised enough without this shit springing up everywhere? Fucking livid I am!

  • I just watched Panorama.Some of the things I saw are positively creepy,particularly Tommy Davis,who seemed to pop up whenever John Sweeney was talking to people critical of the cult

  • i will make john sweeney right, i find this cult a disgrace seeing that it was started off by a mental patient, who was paranoid just like the jumped up little weasel Sweeney was intervewing (or being shouted over by) , what a little squirt.

  • $ci€nto£og¥

  • The scientology videos vet the comments first!! Hows that for democracy! Brainwashed gimps!

  • I like your style

  • They definitely don't approve of freedom of speech Charley. They'd love a law passed that made it illegal to say that Scientology is a cult (even though it is)

  • Indeed. There is a law in California where you can be convicted for the misdemeanor of "interfering with a religion". This is what 64 year old Keith Henson is sitting in limbo in a jail cell for and its because of this cult. See my other post for petition links.

  • God I hate Cults. The best way to make money is to start your own religion. True. So true.

  • 5 Minutes to go, UK viewers!

    Eat my shorts, $cientology Cult! (in the words of $cientologist Nancy Cartwright, voice of Bart Simpson)

  • Scientology like many cults is about power and control over others. Put cult information service into Google and look for the UK charity.

    Whilst you could say mainstream churches might use some of the tactics described at the website, to my knowledge they don't charge $100k's for the privilege.

  • I like the way Scientology are putting the name of the documentary into random films about Dianetics works, especially as these videos have nothing to do with the film.

    Try this name, "Brainwashing : We can make you believe anything we want you to"

  • how much you want to bet that the hundreds of scientologists there are start flooding into these kind of clips promoting and defending their cult?

    all religions are extremely cumbersome to progress but this one annoys me more than most because they dont even try to make their "bible" sound realistic yet they have thousands of poeple (wackjobs) joining

  • All hail the mighty powerful Xenu, destroyer of Thetan souls! (google xenu)

  • Do see how richandmark . com take on the subject with their "Banorama"...

  • Just a friendly reminder... a bit over three hours to go!

  • One of the L. Ron Hubbardistas once asked me if I wanted to take a personality test. I declined informing them that I already had one. This seemed to perplex them and I was able to make good my escape as they both pondered on the meaning of my words!

  • Scientology, an idea which would ask for blind faith in a story about Ming the Merciless asking followers to hand over ridiculous amounts of cash in the hope that the ridiculous saga may go on. Whilst the BBC promotes the ridiculous idea that if you have blind faith they will produce quality television and radio programs which appeal to a wide audience being informative, current, and popular. The Price the BBC asks? the ridiculous licence fee. OMG the BBC and scientology are the same people!

  • Everything I've seen on YouTube and elsewhere could just as easily be crazy people who subscribe to one of the bigger religions. You get crazy and weird people in every big group. The same way people do it with Christians and Muslims, a few weird Scientologists are assumed to represent everyone in the entire organization. It could just be one insignificant person posting all these videos, not an organization level decision.

  • No, it goes all the way to the top. LRH is in on it and so is Xenu as well as Aleister Crowley.

  • Beware all comments. $cientologists manipulated Sweeney and now manipulating public opinion on the news and net.

  • All religions are cults. The Abrahamic religions have all engaged in genocidal activities at various times in their history. Some of them even justified their actions as being god's will. Religious people are irrational and dangerous.

  • And your stance is what? You were there to say it wasn't true? If so you must be God, huh? Seems that if someone doesn't agree with YOUR belief they must be wrong - closed mind - empty heart --- good luck, you'll need it.

  • And were you there SteveF? Are you god? Or a supporter of Hubbard's nonsense?

    It's called an opinion and in a democracy your allowed one. Where as in an organised religion you cannot speak out against scriptures. That is called heresy.

    Can you say "her-a-say" with me?

  • Since when?

  • scientology doesn't like to be called a cult how about occult instead? After all Ron Hubbard met Jack Parsons, who was a renowned scientist, protégé of occultist Aleister Crowley.

  • Sealgirl18, SPOT ON :o)

    Sinister CULT! End of____

  • I can see a backlashh in the uk against this religion or a Backlash againt the reporter himself, either way it will be interesting to watch....
