Most of these idiots probably think they are being "cool and different" going against the public condemnation of the church and joining up. They deserve the ass fucking they'll get.

Anyone else amused when people who were in the Scientology cult for twenty years bitch about how silly it is now?

"They tell you it helps, but I was in it since 1987 and I don't feel any better. HA!"

You stayed in a cult for twenty years, you idiot. Don't expect me to congratulate you for figuring out something that is painfully obvious to most of us.

on encyclopediadramatica.com they have regular updates on this in an article called "project chanology"
They have links (supposedly) to this anonymous stuff. I have been wantring to check it out but Im too busy reading and playing videogames and posting here to go look, but i have seen the article on encyclopediadramatica and it seems that more groups have joined this anonymous such as the furluminati. Thse guys are, I guess, as they call themselves, 1337 furries. Furries and Anonymous teaming up? This whole thing just got interesting.

From that article it seems they're more juvenile hackers with delusions of anarchy doing this for laughs, rather that a group that cares about the mistreatment of people and exposing a cult for what it is. Also seems they're just as, if not more, bullying than thetanfreaks.

....who gives a shit? This isn't remotely entertaining to you?

Going by posts on 4chan itself, it seems like a small'ish fraction are actually doing it out of hate for Scientology, and the rest are piling on for the Lulz. It doesn't make much difference either way, though.

Wow. Anonymous = Communist Nazis. Great phrasing there.

I was on my way to the movies yesterday afternoon and there were about 200 protesters railing about Scientology and how it's a scam. I honked as I went by, because I don't want to show my face in support. The Scientologist hitmen are everywhere.

I can't believe eBay won't even challenge that. It bothers me that most of the reason that Scientology gets away with this bullying crap is that most organizations are too gutless to challenge them on it. eBay and Youtube are huge, highly-profitable businesses, but they're so gun-shy about lawsuits that they won't say "boo" at even the threat anymore. It's sad that the prospect of being sued has become such a terrifying boogeyman in our culture that people like this can wield it like a big club.

Fox News:

Quote:
Ruggedly handsome actor Jason Beghe was best man at the wedding of "X-Files" star David Duchovny (his childhood pal) and actress Tea Leoni. In 1998, he starred as Demi Moore’s love interest in "G.I. Jane." He’s been featured in numerous TV dramas such as "Criminal Minds," "Numb3rs" and "CSI."

In 2005, Beghe appeared in promotional spots for the Church of Scientology. But now, Beghe has escaped the church after taking courses since 1994. He’s made a video that’s up on You Tube.

This is what he has to say: "Scientology is destructive and a rip-off."

He also says: "It’s very, very dangerous for your spiritual, psychological, mental, emotional health and evolution. I think it stunts your evolution. If Scientology is real, then something’s f---ed up."

You can see from the video that Beghe does not mince words. But his refreshing candor about the religion he joined in 1994 should shake the Celebrity Center to its core.

"It ain’t deliverin’ what it’s promised. It sure has not."

The video is billed as a three-minute teaser to a longer interview with Beghe that’s on its way. But the short video packs a powerful punch. Beghe still uses a lot of Scientology lingo like "OT" and "clear." Still, it’s quite easy to understand the point he’s making. After 14 years and a tremendous amount of money, he’s seeing Scientology in a different light.

Beghe has completed so many courses that he’s considered a top Scientologist, or "OT 5" — similar to Tom Cruise, John Travolta and Kirstie Alley. But Beghe reveals: "The further up the bridge, the worse you get."

He adds: "I don’t have an agenda. I’m just trying to help. I have the luxury of having gotten into Scientology and after having been in it, been out. And that’s a perspective that people who are still in and not out do not have."

Tom Cruise told me that guy's a big queer child molester who likes to rape old ladies, stab puppies, shit on kittens, and shoot Jews. He's apparently very dangerous and is hiding his crimes. I have no idea why Tom Cruise knows all of this, but he kept getting all serious followed by 'bouts of insane laughing.

And now there are stories circulating that all is not well between Tom and Katie.
My respect for Beghe,whom I never really cared for as an actor, went up 100% with his view inside the CO$ from someone who has been there.
And that the CO$ attempts to surpress any negative opinion of them is scary,really scary.

Anonymous has evolved from a questionable bunch of hackers who used tactics as bad as that of the CO$ , into a genuine protest movement that seems to have staying power.
And they got rid of the Guy Fawkes masks. Kudos to them for that. Those masks have become such a freaking ,lame,boring cliche that I would not be surprised if Alan Moore himself is sick of them.

Tom Cruise's lawyer has hit back at a TV doctor who questioned the star's mental heath - calling Celebrity Rehab's Dr. Drew Pinsky "unprofessional" and "unqualified".

Pinsky, who is a regular on the U.S. reality show, has written an article for Playboy magazine suggesting Cruise might be mentally ill for getting involved with the Church of Scientology. The medical expert also claims the Top Gun star may have suffered some kind of childhood trauma.

He writes: "Why would somebody be drawn into a cultish kind of environment like Scientology? To me, that's a function of a very deep emptiness and suggests serious neglect in childhood - maybe some abuse, but mostly neglect."
Just so you know:

Quote:
Tom Cruise on his father: He was a bully and a coward. He was the kind of person where, if something goes wrong, they kick you. It was a great lesson in my life - how he'd lull you in, make you feel safe and then, bang! For me, it was like, 'There's something wrong with this guy. Don't trust him. Be careful around him.' There's that anxiety.
Back to the article:

Quote:
But Cruise's attorney, Bert Fields, has slammed the article - insisting Pinsky's analysis is absurd.

He tells the New York Post's gossip column PageSix, "This unqualified television performer who is obviously just looking for notoriety is so grotesquely unprofessional as to pretend to diagnose Tom and others without ever meeting them.

"He seems to be spewing the absurdity that all Scientologists are mentally ill. The last time we heard garbage like this was from (Nazi propaganda chief) Joseph Goebbels."
Yeah. Fuck you Drew Pinsky, you nazi bastard. How could you say such a thing? What are your crimes Dr. Drew? Oh... you help people with addictions. You're a board certified physician? You've never been associated with the nazi party? Huh.

I will say, as much as these Scientololawyers are scum who make outrageous claims, it really wasn't a statement Drew had to make. He's become more of a whore than a doctor with his celebrity rehab shows and his years on the tv and radio of asking girls who raped them when they were little. He's still a respectable guy though and I believe he genuinely wants to help everyone he meets whether their famous or not, but he doesn't have to give his medical opinion on everything to get some notice.

What article are you quoting? I say this because celebrities - yes Dr. Drew is a celebrity - are asked all sorts of questions about other people in the biz. I feel like he was honestly answering a question posed to him rather than attention whoring. I agree it would be bizarre if he just a made a statement like this out of the blue. And for the record, his analysis of Cruise seems spot on. Cruise has said repeatedly that his father was abusive, that he attended 15 different schools in 12 years, and that he got bullied a lot. Dr. Drew's professional assessment seems 100% correct.

I find this whole situation even more hilarious because there was a time that, if my mother met Cruise in person, she would have ridden him like she stole him. Now, she sees him on TV and lets out a terrified yelp.

It's odd. I included a quote from Cruise himself about his abusive father to show how Dr Drew's analysis was spot on, he even is under the delusion that his father helped him, everything he says shows how easy he is manipulated... yet you felt the need to set the record straight.

I also say he's a respectable guy who genuinely wants to help people. He's still wants good ratings for his Celebrity Rehab show though.

I was reiterating that Drew's analysis was spot on, not to call you out, but to reemphasize that Tom Cruise's lawyer is a dipshit.

But I still don't get why you are all uppity about Drew's statement. He called a crazy man crazy. I can't fault him for that.
