Don't you mean "knickers in a twist?".
No, I meant panties in a bunch. I'm not from Old Blighty so I tend to use American phrases. Thanks for asking though.

If I am just a teenager looking for attention, then I came to the right place, eh? You all have so many questions--too many for me to answer here. Maybe you should go back to the Church to find the answers.

Christians have Churches, Muslims have Mosques, Jews have Synagogues,
Hindus (and Jews) have Temples. You don't call it the "Scientology Mosque" or the "Scientology Synagogue" nor "Scientology Temple". Exactly how is your "church" connected to Christianity? Where is Christ in your "church"?
You have a very limited view of what a church is.

Somehow I find the "Church of Scientology" as surreal as the "Church
of Satan". "Church", by historic and common usage implies
Christianity. It implies acknowledgement of Jesus Christ as the
founder; as "source".
The Satanist, it seems,would find more actual connection than "Scientology"
to Christianity, albeit as the "adversary", as the "Anti Christ", as the
"Anti Church". Is Scientology an anti church? What exactly is your
"church's" relationship to Jesus Christ?
I have read that Hubbard stated in OT whatever that Christ was a
"pedophile"...whats your position on that? Do YOU think Christ was
a pedophile? Are you permitted to not believe it if Hubbard said it was so?
All I see is a lot of weak-willed whiners here who don't want to fix their lives. It's easier to cry and complain that shit's not going their way than do the hard work to unfuck their lives.
As far as the Church "failing miserably," you must be joking. This whole board is full of fail while Scientology continues to grow and get stronger every day. It's great to be a Scientologist. Y'all are a bunch of losers.
