Top Ten Scientology-Related Quotes
--L. Ron Hubbard, founder of Scientology
"[The court record is] replete with evidence [that Scientology] is nothing in reality but a vast enterprise to extract the maximum amount of money from its adepts by pseudo scientific theories... and to exercise a kind of blackmail against persons who do not wish to continue with their sect.... The organization clearly is schizophrenic and paranoid, and this bizarre combination seems to be a reflection of its founder, L.Ron Hubbard."

Post a CommentThere is no "science" in Scientology. Like its creator, it is just hack science fiction with the added evil of corruption, greed and exploitation. I could dismiss its victims as gullible dupes who deserve their sad fate were it not for the children who are raised in this brutal lie. They do not deserve to suffer, to be used, and to die so that greedy leaders can make themselves rich and powerful.
Long live the Anonymous and victory to their fight against Scientology.
United as one! Divided by zero!
It's sad that so many people fall for this sort of cult garbage in a futile effort to save themselves, instead of walking in the Light. I read a quote once by a famous scientist (whose name escapes me) who said that the more he studied science, the firmer his belief in God became, because there was just so much that science can't explain.
The arrangement and scope of these quotes gives your article incredible impact. I used to think the CoS was a conglomeration of elitist wack-jobs who gathered together in the belief that they were smarter than the rest of the world. The more I learn, the scarier they become. I think it's opening the screens, via articles like yours, that's gonna make the difference. Very well presented & exceptionally organized!

Wow. A powerful piece Brett.
the quote by James Hester was sad :( - These people are blind. The founders first quote here should be in the limelight so that people will know his true agenda before joining. Scientist are proving everyday the Bible is true. They just figured out that the Red Sea was in fact parted. All a scientist is someone that figures out or physically reveals the wonders of God. They spend countless money and time figuring out and 'discovering' things that already existed or took place.
