Too much credit
So Sympatico/MSN has an article about what "Scientology" is supposed to be. My problem is that they're giving it to much credit than what it is...their ending is:
"Fab or flake – only you can judge."
Really? I think it doesn't take individuals how stupid it is...take for example this part of the article:
Scientology literature points to many extraterrestrial references. According to Scientology, the thetan is tainted from events dating back millions of years, which are related to extraterrestrials and lives on different planets. The story of Xenu is within the III level of Scientology and it is as follows:
Xenu, the galactic tyrant first kidnapped certain individuals who were deemed ?excess population´ and loaded these individuals into space planes for transport to the site of extermination, the planet of Teegeeack (Earth). These space planes were said to have been copies of Douglas DC-8s, except with rocket engines. He then stacked hundreds of billions of these frozen victims around Earth's volcanoes 75 million years ago before blowing them up with hydrogen bombs and brainwashing them with a "three-D, super colossal motion picture" for 36 days, telling them lies of what they are and what the universe should be like and telling them that they are 3 different things: 'Jesus, God, and The Devil.' (from Wikipedia)
To some, this may seem farfetched. Nevertheless, everyone should judge for themselves how much credibility should be given to Scientology for explaining humanity through such examples.
First off...."seem" farfetched?!?!?! Are you kidding me?! copies of DC-8s and Xenu the galactic tyrant wasn't a dead giveaway of how ridiculous this is?! Who the hell would accept the assignment of trying to write a 'fair and balanced' article on this crap? And was the author laughing the whole time?
Oh, by the way, speaking of the author. Way to use Wikipedia as your source. Now there's an undisputed source of knowledge...
