Scientology? Hatred or Liking?

[SlipknotOzX]

I am in my school right now doing a report on scientology. I wanted to know if anyone here can tell me anything about it or if you like it or hate it.

Thank you for your help.

I don't know enough about it to have a hard opinion either way. Check out our Scientology forum for more info about.

Ditto Maize...check out the scientology forum. Google is also a great resource

Scientology for some reason seems 'distasteful' to me, but I don't know much about it.

 

[SlipknotOzX]

Where is your scientology forum?

Scientology forum

 

[SlipknotOzX]

No one is in the scientology forum to answer any of my questions. Does anyone have any opinions on the religion at least? Don't be afraid. Share them!

 

[SlipknotOzX]

No one is answering me!

Just some thoughts......

If you're doing a "report" on scientology, you might want to stick to facts. I can't imagine that a school would like you to do a report on why people "hate" something"... at least I hope not.

I don't believe we have more than one or two members here who are Scientologists... and I don't see either one online now..... I don't know much about it.... not enough to "like it" and surely not enough to "hate it".

Peace be with you,
Scott

...if you like it or hate it...

3 free tips for future research projects:

1. Don't ask if people hate a religion. It sets the wrong tone for a discussion.
2. Ask people what experiences they've had with a faith or it's believers
3. Have a little patience. You started this thread @ 2:11 PM and it's just now 3:00 PM.

Personally, I know very little about L. Ron Hubbard or the Church of Scientology, but I'm going to check out the link Maize provided. BTW, if other people haven't read the overviews on the various religions, you are are missing out. They are very informative despite being so brief.

Hi SlipknotOzX,

The first link is the church's own site, the second is a site that denounce what Scientologists believe in - I'd have a look at both if I was you.

I'm happy to answer your questions in your other thread with the same title in the Scientology forum.

Personally I think it's pretty silly, but if you're looking for information, try this:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientology

Probably more objective with thier facts than the actual scientology website.

 

[adthelad]

Even better to ask me so I can explain what's true and what's not.

 

[Mike182]

while i do not "like" scientology, in the sense that i don't follow it/agree with it on a personal level, i hate no system of belief.

I wanted to know if anyone here can tell me anything about it

Among the other fine links suggested, I'd try here as well:

http://www.religioustolerance.org/scientol1.htm

or if you like it or hate it.

Oh, and neither.

*goes back to sweeping dead leaves*

 

[EnhancedSpirit]

I treat scientology just like any other group, I seek the common thread that links it to all religions.

The truth is that which repeats itself over and over again.

Just for clarification, this thread was started last year.

Oops! So it is - guess it comes a bit late to help him out then!

But I think it's great that you were kind enough to want to help!

Thanks - nice of you to say that- what's the point if we can't help each other?
