Wise Beard Man and Faith



Wise Beard Man's latest post on the absurd aspects of religion; a focus on scientology of course is at hand. He immediately makes a comparison of Christianity to Scientology. Are the Views of Christianty Much More Radical than that of Scientology



He acclaims that the powers of the religion should not be charged at a rate. He claims that secrets of other religions are open to the public and that Scientology essentially frames you following learning their hidden or arcane knowledge. This is to be contended by the existence of estoric groups which do keep substantial secrecy and initiation rights. In understanding most relgions, the disciple must give up earthly possession which hold them down and detour them from their mission. This can be acknowledged with priests', Jesus, and monks. Scientology seems to be keeping better and what some might call, "fair game."
Religions are notorious for "fair gaming" opponents of what believers really believe is a prolific cause. WBM views are anti-religious and is hate propaganda. If you can deny one's faith, you can deny all faith.



Wise Beard Man and Anonymous are the self destructive hate machine of the Internet. This form of Iconoclasm will only beget more ignorant followers. Anonymous fails through the Omnipotence of the Majority

ANONYMOUS IS FAIL

How does it feel to be a Scientology Sockpuppet?

I am a Scilon (OT-8) and I approve of this blog.

"This is to be contended by the existence of estoric groups which do keep substantial secrecy and initiation rights."
But how many religions outside of Scientology refuse to talk about what the religion is actually about? I have heard of none that have any big, high level secrets anywhere near the caliber Xenu or Body Thetans. Please give some examples.

"In understanding most relgions, the disciple must give up earthly possession which hold them down and detour them from their mission. This can be acknowledged with priests', Jesus, and monks."
There's a big difference between giving up positions and charging people to find out what your religion is actually about. The early Christians from what I can tell were largely about giving up material possessions in general and giving money to both their group and the poor, and this was done with full knowledge of what the religion was about. Scientology is more about giving money specifically to the church for very specific courses, books, etc. that one has to buy to advance in the religion, and this is done without full disclosure of what the religion is even about. For this reason, Scientology is completely different from the religions brought up here.

"Scientology seems to be keeping better and what some might call, "fair game."

Yes, we all know about the crusades and various bits of violence brought upon by extremists, but the existence of these actions does not make the actions of Scientology somehow OK, particularly as most modern churches no longer support such actions. Even then, how many religions in the civilized world outside of Scientology actively encourage the destruction of their critics? How many religions have secret police like Scientology has the OSA? I am against any form of harassment like this from any religion; it just seems that Scientology is the biggest offender of these things in America, so that is why I am against it.

I appeal to you as a fellow man, look into your belief-system. Examine it rationally, from other viewpoints aside from those of the Scientology organization. There are many stories to read, many things to know.

Do you know all the facts? Are you making your decision based on what is really sufficient evidence?

What have you read of other religions? Of the history of religions in general? What of philosophy?

Where do your beliefs have their origin? Who is the founder of your belief system? Are there records of what he thought? What did others say of him? Were they justified in saying so?

Do you ever have any concerns about your religion? Have you thought that reading books might help you to answer these questions?

And for any of those not taken in by this great yet idiotic scam of L. Ron Hubbard, Scientology is a business founded by the same circa 1960 because,
"Writing for a penny a word is ridiculous. If a man really wants to make a million dollars, the best way would be to start his own religion." (as a science fiction writer)

And so his hiers continue his scam, composed of space opera-genre fiction which is altogether quite a mockery of real world religions.

However, it is further marked from them in that its leaders teach their victims to kill and hurt and calumny non-believers and open skeptics of the religion.

To calumny is to state false material so as to hurt the reputation of another. It is a bad choice which your works are making, my friend.

I encourage you to look into matters. If what you believe is true, will you not find through careful search that you are correct? What then is there to lose if you are certain?

And typical of any political coup, there was a sudden purge as he consolidated his power. Anyone DM thought might be a friend of Broeker's who would pose a threat were sent to Scientology's equivalent of Lubayanka Prison or Siberia: the RPF, so I went. For 16 months and three escape attempts.

So, I thought, L. Ron Hubbard, the man who fought psychiatry since 1950 and who railed against the dangers of any psychiatric drugs had died with them in his brain while signing a new last will.

Plus even the coroner was suspicious of the will as it had been signed by Hubbard just before he died. Coincidences like that tend to make coroner's worry.

So, the current leader of your belief system silenced the guy (Pat Broeker) who killed the founder (Ron Hubbard)? Wow. You should look into these things before they get you believing the stuff about us all being clams.
