Anonymous Masses Vs. the Cult of Scientology

[xemnas]

After hearing about the Anon raid on Scientology I patiently waited it unfold so I could babble about it. Everyone knows I love me some babbling!

Btw, the The raids? Utter fail, Anon. :(

Anonymous, Scientology and me: A love story

I couldn't be more sympathetic towards these protests. The self entitled "Church" of Scientology has, for as far back as I

It's true they need a "Someone", but I don't think Anonymous ever intended to be that "Someone". When you're dealing with the CoS, it's probably better to stay Anonymous given their track record with dissenters. I understand why they want to stay Anonymous: that's their identity. It's not the individuals in the crowd, it's the cohesive unit of people that make up that crowd

I agree with, well, everything! :D Hopefully the protests will eventually inspire people to take charge of the things that influence their lives... and show the world Scientology's awful scam along the way!!! lol

Anonymous must remain anonymous when dealing with Scientology and to maintain their reputation as unit, but, yeah, they'll eventually need a leader of sorts **IF** they decide to make things more official. I mean, when the media came to interview Anons in different locations regarding motive, answers weren't "to the point" or uniform at all; there was no One Big Article about the protests, but focused on what took place locally and only with a quick mention of Anonymous. The impact was lessened. :(

It was a good way to start, I agree! Fail in matters of effectiveness, but still in the right path to total WIN!

Each group takes up the fight that seems meaningful to their lives. If Anonymous decides Scientology is their true nemesis and will throw a fit until someone listens... I'm totally supportive!!! :D

Yeah, as they stand right now, people aren't really going to take notice. It is a group effort, it just doesn't have a single voice to represent them at the moment. But that's also the way Anonymous works, so... XD; I believe a third party will have to pick up the torch.

Totally agreeing with Scientology being a scam. If it were a true religion, their members would not be paying for religious instruction. Have you ever seen a church that actually makes their members PAY to learn about it? Donations are one thing, outright charging members to buy informational "kits" and then charging them for shit like "auditing" is another. It's a scam and I pity anyone who doesn't see it.

Besides, I don't trust any religion that tells me "psychiatrists and medicine" are the roots of evil. Don't even get me started on Lord Xenu ROTF.

WHAT!?!? You shittin' me, right?! How can you not believe alien ghosts are the source of all our afflictions?! I mean, C'MON!!!

Makes you wonder how Jesus, Allah and Buddha didn't think of that.

XD Yeah... so sad to know Jason Lee believes this crap. If I could pick one Scientologist to save, it'd probably be him. *sighs*
