Hello again, Scientology. We are still Anonymous.
We desire rational dialogue, but your logic is flawed. A fallacy is a part of an argument which, being flawed in its logic, renders the argument invalid.
An example of this is when Tommy Davis interrupted a BBC interview to describe the crimes of the interviewee. Also, when protestors are asked, "What are your crimes?"
The claim here is rejected on the basis of some irrelevant fact about the person presenting the claim.
This fallacy is called "Ad Hominem." This means "Against the man."
Just because you degrade the author of the claim, doesn't mean that the claim is invalid.
Anonymous should remember this for upcoming protests.
The actions of a person do not have a bearing on the truth or falsity of the claim being made.
It is always important to attack arguments, rather than the people arguing.
I have credible sources to back up my claim.
When your arguments have fallacies, people find you unreliable and won't listen. If you want Anonymous and the general public to stop "suppressing" or "persecuting" you, or even if you want more members of Scientology, then avoid these pitfalls of logic.
This is not questioning your freedom of religion. We would like a valid argument defending Scientology against accusations of McPherson's death, Operation Snow White, Operation Freakout, and so forth. Use CREDIBLE sources to backup your claims.
We are Anonymous.
We are Legion.
Expect us in wealth on the twelfth.

What are your crimes?

  • there is no valid arguement for Scientology, theyre psychotics

  • Thank you for educating the public about this. Your video is very informative.

  • they aren't going to do that. the Co$ is all that they can handle at the moment.

  • I would like to see anonymous protest against shell and esso. I think the way anonymous has brought attention to the Co$ could be used against big oil too. I would love to see anonymous go after big oil companys. impossible for society to live without oil but if everyone put a ban on just TWO oil companys you can put pressure on those two companys to help create green solutions or evironmentally freindlier products to help regain some of their business or at the very least lower gas prices.

  • Thank you so very f'n much for this post :D

  • Well put.

  • Continuing on with the previous thought. While we may not reach that Sci, now as we hold their falsities to the light of reason and logic. It has to (even if subconsciously) if they are intellectually honest hit home somewhere. It will plant the seed to lift the fog of what they have been "programmed" to think. All we really want is for them to be able to see the real, reality. Not the "programmed" reality. When the wake from the fog, they may return to their families! That's all we can hope for

  • I agree with LeftyBlue, but the great thing about using logic and truth in a discussion with a Sci is that they can NOT continue by using "logic and truth" (Most can't even hold a discussion.) I have found they soon resort to name calling and bullbaiting and freak out. The reason we should engage them in discussion is that when you hold their "truth" up to the light it reveals the flaws. That is why they start "going ballistic". In their mind that has to strike a reality seed for the future!

  • Nice work. I'm afraid that logic isn't something that Scientology has much use for. As Hubbard tells them, "If you can't dig up crimes, manufacture them". So as you can see, their thought process doesn't go much past the superficial as their critical thinking skills were smothered long ago by the brainwashing and mindcontrol tactics of Scientology. See you April 12th! Rock on, Anon!
