i watched a Tom Cruise video on it, and he spent fucking 10 minutes saying nothing! It was just crap about being better, and something, awesome, oh, and it's awesome, don't forget.
It seriously gave no information about what it was, what it does, what it believes. No different from any other cult.

Anonymous is a collective of individuals united by an awareness that someone must do the right thing, that someone must bring light to the darkness, that someone must open the eyes of a public that has slumbered for far too long. Among our numbers you will find individuals from all walks of life - lawyers, parents, IT professionals, members of law enforcement, college students, veterinary technicians and more. Anonymous is everyone and everywhere. We have no leaders, no single entity directing us - only the collective outrage of individuals, guiding our hand in the current efforts to bring awareness.
We want you to be aware of the very real dangers of Scientology. We want you to know about the gross human rights violations committed by this cult. We want you to know about Lisa McPhearson. We want you to know about former members of Scientology's private navy, SeaOrg, who were forced to have abortions so that they could continue in service to the church. We want you to know about Scientology's use of child labor and their gulags. We want you to know about Operation Freakout and Paulette Cooper. We want you to know about Operation Snow White and Scientology's efforts to infiltrate the government of the United States of America.
We want you to know about all of these things that have been swept under the rug for far too long. The information is out there. It is yours for the taking. Arm yourself with knowledge. Be very wary of the 10th of February. Anonymous invites you to join us in an act of solidarity.
Anonymous invites you to take up the banner of free speech, of human rights, of family and freedom. Join us in protest outside of Scientology centers world wide.

^ LEWL! Looks like somebody's seen V for Vendetta a few too many times.
Still, would be nice if they were able to properly expose the darker parts of scientology and the lives they have ruined (and how they have ruined said lives). A religion should be transparent, not run like a damn national security agency. 1/28/2008 6:19:30 PM |

I sure hope this gets good. Like, so good that "Anon" catches Tom Cruise sucking the blood from the necks of the dissenters.
scientology is ridiculous and needs to be exposed and dissected, the same way our society does every "religion".
I thought about going to one of the centers or whatever-the-fuck while I was living in Orlando, but I was way too creeped out by the place. It was in a stripmall type storefront directly on the busiest street in Orlando. very sketchy. 1/28/2008 6:53:00 PM |

modern christianity is only peaceful because the vast majority of its followers say they're christian but dont exactly believe in all of its doctrines.
most christians arent christians.
but apart from that, i really dont care.
^ you fail to realize that the vast majority of scientologists have a pro active stance on ruining a persons life if opposed.
Most are radicals.
while muslims, there are radical sects, and non radical sects.

I think it can be said now that 392 is the dumbest user on TWW. Officially.
First of all, he thinks that Scientology has just as much legitimacy as other religions... because other religions need teams of overzealous lawyers to protect their "trade secrets", because other religions have stolen government documents to cover up their actions, and because other religions are vehemently against freedom of speech.
Second of all, if he had done any research at all into what is going on, he'd see that Anon has publicly said that they are NOT against the belief system of Scientology itself, they are against the Church of Scientology and its actions (such as extortion of members, virtual enslavement of staff, covered-up murders, and the frivolous lawsuits handed out against anyone who dares to speak out against them).
Third of all, he doesn't try to respond to anyone's argument, he just trolls them badly.
Anyway, I support Anon, and given that they are from some of the stupidest areas of the Internet, I hope that they don't fuck it up.
Also, to anyone that didn't already know, the Church of Scientology defines anyone that speaks out against them as a "Suppressive Person", and such people are "Fair Game" to be attacked in any way possible by any members. This little fact would be VERY scary if Scientology were actually a major world religion.

I support dismantling any and all organized religions. Whether we agree that Scientology is a religion or a cult doesn't matter, it's all semantics. I would equally support a war on the Christian, Catholic, Muslim, and any other organized faith.

^^No, you did miss the point almost entirely. They're not trying to dismantle Scientology as a religion at all. They aren't fighting religion in any sense of the word. They're fighting the organization called the Church of Scientology. For all they care, anyone can go on believing whatever they want about Xenu and space planes, but they should not be doing it under the control of a corrupt and criminal organization. 2/11/2008 10:59:48 AM |
