They suck you in like a cult. And pressure you to stay in. What other religion sets up a table outside a bookstore @ the mall and gives out "Free Stress Test's"? Then after they tell you you're stressed they say they can help you. No shit who isn't stressed.? I coulda told you that with out this thingamajig.

Church pays man for brainwashing

By Darrell Giles in Los Angeles

14may02

 

THE Church of Scientology has paid $US8.7 million ($16.1 million) to a man who claims he was brain-washed.

 

Lawrence Wollersheim, 53, of Nevada, joined the Los Angeles-based Church of Scientology in 1969.

 

He later became a recruiter and signed a "billion-year" contract to serve the church, whose high-profile members include celebrities Tom Cruise, Lisa Marie Presley and John Travolta.

 

But, he said, he was punished in a "thought reform gulag" and consigned to the hold of a ship docked off California for 18 hours a day.

 

He sued the organisation in 1980 after "counselling" almost caused him to take his own life. He claimed he paid $US150,000 to the church.

 

He said mind-control tactics, coupled with deprivation of sleep and food, had caused him to develop bipolar disorder and consider suicide.

 

"The counselling techniques are designed to either break you or make you a slave. I was on the edge of insanity," Mr Wollersheim said.

 

A jury in 1986 awarded him $US30 million, an amount reduced on appeal to $US2.5 million and upheld by the Supreme Court in 1994.

 

The court award collected 10 per cent interest over the years and eventually grew to $US8.6 million.

 

Scientology officials vowed they would pay "not one thin dime for Wollersheim", and members were rallied to chant the slogan at court hearings. But the Church of Scientology has now handed over a cheque for that amount to Mr Wollersheim.

 

Scientology, founded by author L. Ron Hubbard more than 50 years ago, has come under attack around the world for its methods of attracting members.

 

Major income earners such as Cruise and Travolta – who pick up $US20 million per picture – hand over vast sums of their fortunes to the church.

"The Jews, the Christians, the Atheists and Secularists, (people who believe Islam should not be brought in education & politics), the Munafiqin, the whole Kuffaar shall fall under the banner of the Anti-christ against Islam.It may also surprise you to know that all christian organisations are masonic institutions. About 60% of the Archbishops are freemasons and secretly practice Devil-worship(see above mentioned books) . "

 

the above was quoted from a anti freemason website called like freemasons against islam i believe

An ex-girlfriend is a member. You know how some guys joke around and say their ex turned into a lesbian...well they got nothing on me. I'd like to see you make someone join a cult.

 

It's a bad situation. She always had problems; things I couldn't help her with in a million years with my then 16 year-old brain. We broke up and she would call me to talk about how she rode on a motorcycle with a really cute guy today, and I would entertain it...cause it was just sad. Anyway, one of these conversation included mention of Scientology. Her mom is a member, and she'd always make fun of them...ruthlessly. I mean these people had to go on a cruise that cost $5000 and wear all black...Apparently she really liked black, because she signed a billion year contract...To which I replie, "What the fuck did you just fucking say?"

 

Don't mess with that there...

It's bad hoodoo.

when i was in 8th grade i went to Boston with my older brother. We were walking by this architectural center when we got handed pamphlets for a " free IQ test". Figured, hey what the hell, and went for it. We spent two hours filling out some thing that wasnt even an IQ test, and after that they split us up, i was like 13, 14 years old. they told me i had a deep seeded hatred for my father and that i had low self esteem, and somehow they had a book that could help me. so, after 20 minutes of me saying i didnt have any money, i finally gave them my last 5 bucks so i could get the hell outta there. they did, gave me the book, let us go, and to this day i still get mail from them. mother fuckers, i hope they are proud of robbing a 14 year old for is last 5 bucks. i now have a deepseeded hatred of them and all they stand for, them people are evil.

the theory alone of scientology is stupid. i say stupind in the sense that scientists belive in evolution and most other religons belive that god made everything. so you cant really meld the two togather. because if you belive in one than, really you shouldent belive in the other.

 

anyways all organized religons are, is a big money making entity. cause all the money and land they own in TAX FREE. And that is total bullshit , If i haft to pay taxes then so do they.

 

i say we make THE CHURCH OF GRAFF> then we can get everything tax free.
