New Story: Visit to Church of Scientology

[Gib]

Got this story from Alanzo's blog:

What's interesting is the comment from Edward.

Edward claims Rachel is violating "ethical “Journalism,” as defined on spj.org"

http://www.spj.org/ethicscode.asp

What's interesting is that the first point of the ethical code is:

Seek Truth and Report it.

Lets apply that to DMSMH. Hubbard said any two people could read that book and "clear" themselves.

This was key -

"my first time visiting and they were already asking for money"!

"The Church of Scientology isn’t about helping people; it’s about fooling people into meeting their bottom line.

My experience with this organization showed me that we need to critically evaluate the groups that we associate ourselves with, or else we could become a victim of an organization that may claim to do good, but only brings about abuse and injustice".

yep.

In other words she is saying it's a business and not a Church.

Edit: and I lousy business at that, nobody gets "cleared" let alone "OT"

Now wait a minute here Gib....:wink2: I think you are being a little hard on the cult. Scientology really does clear thetan's of their MEST...(money, homes, nice stuff)

People get "cleared" ... In fact, Tons of people get CLEARED - cleared bank accounts, Stock Portfolios, IRA's and inheritances)... IN fact, most Scientologist's reach levels of financial hardship awareness never achieved by cults before...

I certainly got CLEARED! $$$,$$$

Standard SOP in Scientology!
