    Funny conclusion by Charles Manson.

    On a crime site, I read that Manson studied Scientology for several months. Paid for courses and was fully involved. Then, after awhile, Manson quit. His reason? "Scientologists are too weird for me."

    Ron Miscavige on JRE (scientology)

    Ron Miscavige, father of David Miscavige, who is currently the top guy in the Church Of Scientology, was on Joe Rogan's podcast this week. I didn't know anything about him before, but I guess at the age of 76 Ron Miscavige left Scientology. He seems to have a pretty interesting story to tell...

    I was raised in Scientology and held it for many years as a set of personal beliefs, as something connected to my family. My practical involvement amounted to some auditing and courses and I went through a phase where I was really excited about it as a kid. In 2012 I wrote a review of my...

    What makes Scientology a pseudoscience and separates the reactive mind from real scie

    I'm talking about low level Scientology material only. Spurious BS that only comes much later is not relevant. This is not about the claims made in the upper levels of Scientology. This is about the logic Scientologists use to define something as a science. It's not that I don't have an inkling...

    It's not odd for me to see the occasional religious pamphlet in my mail, Makes for good paper mache and other art crafts.

    Mormonism and Scientology, Peas in a Pod?

    L. Ron Hubbard may have been too much of an egotist to ADMIT to appropriating ideas from anyone else, but he was hardly original. I've found it's not uncommon for people to think one has gotten Scientology and Mormonism confused when one explains the cosmology of the two cults. Scientology is a...
