Truly bizarre. Watch it before the church pulls it off google.

And any scientologists out there? Anyone know any scientologists?

That's not science. I'm not even sure if it's religion.

Holy crap, the craziest part is the very end, when they basically say "We won't promise you anything we can't deliver, and you don't have to believe us...but if you turn your back on Scientology, you're stupid."

From Wikipedia:

Quote:
Scientology doctrine, Xenu (also Xemu) is an alien ruler of the "Galactic Confederacy" who, 75 million years ago, brought billions of aliens to Earth in DC-8-like spacecraft, stacked them around volcanoes and blew them up with hydrogen bombs. Their souls then clustered together and stuck to the bodies of the living, and continue to wreak chaos and havoc today.

These events are known to Scientologists as "Incident II", and the traumatic memories associated with them as The Wall of Fire or the R6 implant. The story of Xenu is part of a much wider range of Scientology beliefs in extraterrestrial civilizations and alien interventions in Earthly events, collectively described as space opera by L. Ron Hubbard, science fiction writer and founder of Scientology.

Hubbard detailed the story in Operating Thetan level III (OT III) in 1967, famously warning that R6 was "calculated to kill (by pneumonia etc) anyone who attempts to solve it." The Xenu story was the start of the use of the volcano as a common symbol of Scientology and Dianetics from 1968 to the present day.

Criticism of the Church of Scientology often brings to light the story of Xenu. The Church has tried to keep Xenu confidential;[1] critics claim revealing the story is in the public interest, given the high prices charged for OT III, part of Scientology's secret "Advanced Technology" doctrines taught only to members who have already contributed large amounts of money to the organization.[2]

The Church avoids making mention of Xenu in public statements and has gone to considerable effort to maintain the story's confidentiality, including legal action on the grounds of both copyright and trade secrecy. Despite this, much material on Xenu has leaked to the public.


Isn't it amazing that someone as gifted as Tom Cruise, someone who can be a premier actor, accomplished pilot, etc., can leave his brain at the door when it comes to his religion?

No, the craziest part is when they say, "You are at the beginning of the next trillion years of your life. Don't slam the door shut and wither in darkness."



Damn, this could really take off in Korea tho. Give me money, you can study, I will test you. Repeat.

Trillion years? I thought the contract Sea Org makes you sign only pledges your soul for the next billion years.

I think it's cute how so many of the actors in this film are on a first-name basis with "Ron."

"...the two scientists [at the White House] nearly fainted when they saw graphs like these!"

This thing has that creepy Hanso hatch orientation video feel.

Ron was a professional in music? Good lord, did the trustee listen once to Ron's Space Jazz double LP? Hello!

"So this is the next logical step. The book store!"

No, tard. The next logical step is to get the fork outta that orientation meeting and laugh yourself all the way to a pub.

"All of them best sellers." It's a fact that CoS stooges used to go to the bookstore, buy L Ron's books in bulk and then return them. Best seller lists only measure books bought, not books returned.

That is true. L Ron has more propaganda and cult of personality than Kim Jongil.

Didn't Hubbard at one time, pre-CoS, claim he could invent a new religion?

confidentiality, trade secrets and copyright? I thought it was a religion? Isn't religion supposed to be for everyone? You ARE supposed to spread the word aren't you?
