The so called 'Church of Scientology' is a manipulative corporation that survives by financially exploiting it's members and intimidating critics and opposers with lawsuits and copyright claims. In this post, I am going to be covering some of the tactics and methods the Church of Scientology is guilty of.
First, I will shed some light on some of the recruiting methods they have used in the past, and are still in use today.
For now, imagine you have a nice looking fellow approaching you on the street.
He will simply walk upon you and asks you a few questions, and if you are an open person you will most likely answer these questions since you seem to have nothing better to do with your time.
He then will eventually (read: 100% for sure) invite you into one of their 'Churches'. They have nice decorations, look fancy, and seem like someplace you could live; comforting, aren't they?
He will guide you to one of their desks with a computer (which is probably the only one in the whole church) on it where you will be greeted with a warm handshake and told to fill out something that appears to be a survey, or maybe a short personality test.
Now, that the cult has trained their members to recruit anyone that has a working heart and half a brain, and this spokesperson that you have been directed to by the handsome fellow from outside, will critique your choices, your way of life, and whatever answers you have been giving him:
3 hours of daily TV? 25% of your wake time is going to waste, you have a serious problem buddy. - "We can fix your life"
You messed up memorizing the symbols from page 2?
There are some serious issues, an average person can remember at least 8 by just taking a brief look. - "We can improve your mental abilities"
It looks something like that.
This is where it starts to get dangerous, this buttnugget is systematically pounding on one's confidence.
What happens after this, can only be speculated.
It depends on where the Church is located, since their programs seem to vary a lot.
Here is an actual video from 1995, in which a reporter with a hidden camera managed to get herself recruited. Watch it yourself, it's worth it, they caught batshit insane people on camera. Commentary is below.

The creator of this site is correct; we are not 15-year-old hackers. Perhaps it started that way, but the movement has spread "IRL".
Now we are also professional midwestern businesspeople. Parents. Plumbers. PTO presidents.
The brave and stalwart speakers who have long been fighting the evils of Scientology have held out long enough to rally support. Thank you, hackers. Thank you Xenu.net. Thank you to all of those who have worked so long and hard to get our attention, and suffered for it.
You deserve our support, as citizens, as spiritual beings, as seekers of truth.
We now know the horrors and illegal actions taken by the Church of Scientology.
We, too, have decided that such actions will not stand.
Many of us have stepped out of our normal, ignorant lives and become... Anonymous. More will join when the truth spreads.
Knowledge is free.
Truth can't be copyrighted.
We are legion.
We are coming.
EXPECT US.
that was insane, but i guess scientology is insane...how weird
I actually found out about anonymous through that fox news report. I thought...wow this reporter is a nub. It made the media look bad and Anonymous look appealing.
Is this blog going to be a reliable source for the goings on of anonymous? I completely missed the CoS protests and was pissed because it was something I'd of been glad to attend.
