High Pressure Money Grubbing Cult

"If you really want to enslave people, tell them you are going to give them total freedom." -- L. Ron Hubbard --

Watch this YouTube video from XenuExposed .

In the video ex-Scientology staff members reveal how they manipulated new recruits into cashing out life insurance policies, sell cars, and mortgage their homes in order to pay for costly Scientology courses. From highly-calculated emotional manipulation to bizarre hour-long staring sessions, the lengths which the Church of Scientology (Co$) will go to acquire money is truly disturbing.

Bare-Face Messiah by Russell Miller

"What is true is what is true for you." - L. Ron Hubbard

There are two wildly conflicting versions of the life story of L. Ron Hubbard, the founder of the

Church of Scientology, The first, promoted by the Church, is that he was an unfailingly honest, generous humanitarian whose profound insights have transformed the world. The second, propounded in its fullest form in Bare-Faced Messiah by Russell Miller, is that he was a pathological liar, a fraud consumed by greed and paranoia who sucked literally millions of people into an extraordinary fantasy world.

The quotation above is one was one of Hubbard's favourite aphorisms, highlighting his claim that subjective truth is all that matters. If that's correct, then either account is equally plausible. But if objective truth is at all important, relying on evidence and reason rather than pure belief, then Bare-Faced Messiah is considerably more convincing. I have provided links between Miller's account of Hubbard's life and that of the Church of Scientology (on their Web site, www.lronhubbard.org). Compare and contrast the two biographies, look at the supporting evidence and then decide for yourself. -- Link to Bare-Face Messiah -- the book.
