Do Scientologists have higher IQ scores?

[Mr11MUSICMAN]

LMAOOOOO.

[MrDeathtower]

wise mustached man is wise

[wilmaohman]

you seem to have a good grasp on the facts of life,with a higher iq than most of the present and past cult members.i can't help but wonder how you were ever duped into joining this cult.

[iamitchey]

I was a young man when I joined Scientology, and very trusting in what every one was telling me about how wonderful it was suppose to be.

After a year on staff my God given common sense had the last say.

[AzdKahlan]

Your IQ score depends on your skull volume

You can donate all your $ to scientologists you will still have the same IQ

[Smokinjoewhite]

@AzdKahlan actually, the volume of your skull has very little to do with ones I.Q.

[Nades129]

Ahhhm einstein didnt invent something, he discovered space and time are relative

[WhatsWaldo]

But L. Ron Hubbard WAS a genius. He came up with a plan to take advantage of the hopes and naivete of the innocent and foolish.

Okay, maybe it doesn't take a GENIUS... But there's a guy with some vision.

[pippigladstone]

it takes charisma

[NotSoOldHippy]

LOL! Come on. Look at Tom Cruise -- look at any idiot rube that still gives their money to the Scientology crime syndicate. Obviously they're the lowest of IQs on the planet.

[riply43]

No scientologist ever had a past life where

they were a ditch digger or a housewife. They

were always someone famous or grandiose.

While they`re sitting around the Org Saturday

nights talking about how they were Napoleon

or Julius Casear...

Maybe they should remember there`s a lot of

unfotunate lost souls sitting around in the

local Insane Asylm doing the same thing...

[Ogsonofgroo]

And yet, after being such illustrious and famous people, instead of getting smarter with all that previous lifes experiences, when they return, they get sucked into a garbage pit of a cult. :( DOH!

Hm, I'd like to ask a couple of people making these claims how much of the language they rem, even start speaking their supposed 'mother tongue' to them. Amazing how in past life regressions everyone starts speaking English (what-ever). Back when channeling was popular I met, like, 10+ Cleopatras.

[iamitchey]

Good point. You would expect them to know many languages.

[Ogsonofgroo]

And/or be able to learn a few in a matter of hours using perfect recall. *rolls eyes* You gave me something consider further, the blowing of more holes in a boat made of falsehoods and paper mache. Lron's rather tenuous grasp of the English language is yet another fine example of warning signs that have been ignored by far too many, that and the fact he was a lunatic :D

Time is the great equalizer and unfolder of truth, I'm making some popcorn and watching the show ;)

[blackwhimsy]

Very true.Tory Magoo mentions how she went to a party and 'met' 5 Julius Caesars.They can't ALL be him,can they?

[Ogsonofgroo]

Another fine commentary! Thank you! :)

You'd think with all the brilliant people they've created and have a huge list of inventors, game show winners, master mechanics/electricians/technic­ians, superior athletes, brilliant writers/poets, etc. etc., well we know thats not gonna happen, in fact I'd be surprised if anyone raised in the cult could even pass a basic high school equivalency test. Lron Flubber was a quack of the nth degree with a PHD in Delusion, run away runaway (ala Monty Python).

[angloman1]

Allwrong Hubbard claimed to have been Buddha in his past life,well at least he had the right shape.(lol)In the Sea Org there were bizarre stories of him visiting ancient sites where he remembered to have buried treasures,but was frustrated to not find it.Yes, lets challenge $cientology at a around table about the IQ subject and past lives,surely they could just blast us away with all their 'proof'

[SlappyThePenguin]

Great video.

After Sceintology's 50 years of creating superhumans (Homo Novis) you would think that there would have been at least 1 Gold medal winner in the last Olympics who was a Scientologist. In addition, where are all the great brains that have been produced by Scientology? You point is very valid.

[ValerieBarlow]

I just got my hands on a used(go figure)copy of Dianetics and I'm reading it and POW it was like I KNOW...I really really KNOW....this data is like WHOOOSH!!! ...the evacuations of the bowels of a pre-clear with constipation chain - douche chain valence shift . (Dianetics, pg 397)

[iamitchey]

I know what you men Valerie, it's like wow. ten thousands volts of insanity. cooool

[MrFyde]

This video is proof the smart ones get out. :)

[ckretagentman]

IQ tests were developed by psychologists. if scientology says psychiatry and psychology are "pseudosciences" why do they take such interest in the tests? don't members just see its a marketing ploy?

[iamitchey]

Great point, I would love to see the face of a scientologist after being reminded about the source of their personality tests.

[xemutv]

Psychology is not psychiatry.

[ChoofMonster]

Co$ makes up its own "intelligence" tests; the OCA is used as a recruitment tool. MENSA itself is cult-like, but membership implies the capacity for independent thought, which $cientology eschews. Intelligence and wisdom are not the same thing, Travolta can fly a 747 but his son, Jett, receives no treatment for his autism.

Hubbard himself was an inventor; the e-meter is a wonderful money-spinner and a recent example of bizarre pseudoscience.

[iamitchey]

Actually it was Samuel Hunter Christie who invented the e meter in 1833. His circuit is called a wheatstone bridge.

[NicNasty1981]

Good questions Mitchey. Youve just given me more fuel for talking with $cientologists.
