They do not have the right to tax shelters unless the church is open to the public. Everyone should have the right to believe anything they want as long as they don’t push it in anyone elses face.

Ten minutes on the internet and my mind was freed.
Scientology and groups like it can only control people to the extent that they can control information.
Anyone who escapes Scientology`s evil clutch will never tolerate censorship of information again.
Scientology will shrink to the extent that free speech reigns supreme on the ever expanding world wide web.
This will send a message to others who feel compelled to make slaves of their fellow man. Go Anonymous. I love you guys.

Watch out for Applied Scholastics, L.E.A.P. and A.B.L.E. in your town and school districts. We don't want religion taught in our schools much less a CULT whose teachings are from a Crazy Madman.

Why is it so easy to find so many horrible things about the dangerous cult of $cientology? Is it because the truth is so widely available? You can ask yourself; what kind of religion has a WRITTEN POLICY (as in it is a core belief of this false "religion") of stalking, suing, lying to, financially and emotionally destroying critics? What kind of religion infiltrates the US government to steal information? What kind of religion resorts to ad hominem arguments instead of trying to calmly and rationally come to a conclusion? I've read online that the next Anonymous protest is on June 14th and after reading so many terrible things about the cult I'm going to stand alongside the protesters this time.

It is truly an alarming totalitarian organization.
