Don't know much about scientology but from what I see on this site it's pretty wacko... at least to me. I'm sure June is going to love it

Fun at the Church of Scientology’s "Psychiatry: An Industry of Death" Museum! | Catsandbeer.com

Edit: I didn't notice it when I first posted it but there is some foul language on the site so just beware.

many practices of psychiatry or especially historic practices are indeed cruel lack understanding and have resulted in deaths
as far as scientology being wacko...all you need to do is look at tom cruise to get that...jk..it has alot of interesting ideas to it..but what i laugh at..is you have to basically buy a subscription to scientology to become a member

I don't understand why Scientology is allowed to charter itself as a nonprofit organization in the US, when it is clearly a for-profit enterprise. Countries like Germany force them to charter as a business.

It's funny that you mention Germany. I recently read they're moving to ban scientology in Germany.

There was a big fuss about this when Tom Cruise was in Germany filming his movie where he played a German soldier that tries to assassinate Hitler. The german people were all over this and vowed to ban Cruise from stepping foot on any of their historical places.

They let him film it after all because Cruise threw money at them. In the end, it's always about money.
