<< Any claimed religion that charges a price for admission is not a religion. >>
I have to say, this is a really weird thing about that "church". Basically, members take scores of classes/trainings.which can end up costing hunndreds of thousands of dollars over the years.
All churches want to get into the pockets of their members.but are usually more subtle about it, and stop at the standard 10% tithing of income.

Any claimed religion that charges a price for admission is not a religion. Charity to a church is supposed to be voluntary. Scientology is no different than The Moonies.

Excellent post metalboy.
Many years ago the Scientologists were having an event at their headquarters on Sunset Blvd. It was creepy they had put up fences so that those driving by couldn't see in.
They put up large screens and you could someone shouting, it was like something out of Nazi Germany.
There have been several deaths associated with this group including a young woman who was held against her will at Florida motel.

Lenin and the Communists coined a term for what the celebrities' value is to Scientology: Useful Idiots.

Scientology is no different than most other religions on the planet.
You seriously need to do some reading, neighbor. Scientology is a cult, plain and simple. But even without labels, they are most definitely an organization, and a dangerous one, at that. Yes, the celebrities that are Scientologists all appear to be happy with it, but that is because there are exceptions for them: Celebrity Scientologists are exempted from a lot of the insane beep other Scientologists have to go through, mainly because the Scientology bigwigs want their money, but also because they're useful for recruiting - with their influence, the happier they seem to be, the more people think "Wow, that seems good", until they actually get into it.
Seriously, do you know any thing about the organization known as the Church of Scientology? Your quote above seems to suggest that you do not. I don't mean to be condescending, or rude, and I hope that I haven't been, but you should at least do some reading before you comment. There are several countries in Europe (notably the U.K., France, and Germany) whose governments have either banned Scientology within their borders, or attempted to do so, or they have denied/attempted to deny the Church of Scientology status as a religion or church.
My point is, saying "Scientology is no different than most other religions on the planet" is either mi sguided/ignorant, or willfully disingenuous (which it doesn't seem to be, and I certainly hope it isn't).
There are many sites (a good number of them run by former Scientologists, a good number of whom are now cut off from their families because of leaving the organization) denouncing the cult, and giving an inside look into some of their more barbaric practices. Look into it, and educate yourself, and others. Having said that, however, take everything you read ANYWHERE with a grain of salt, and form your own opinions.

When you are part of an organization that ruins families, destroys lives, brainwashes kids and adults alike and in some cases kills people, in my eyes you are no longer a person worth caring about.
Ha ha ha. Sounds like ignorance and a severe lack of intelligence to me.
Scientology is no different than most other religions on the planet. You single out Scientology, you need to single them all out.

Please point out what you consider lies.
MORE COWBELL!
we are legion

First off Scientology is a RELIGION and not an organization. There are many Scientologists that are happy with their belief and has done no harm to them or their family. If someone decides to kill themselves or anotherthat's on their own accord and has nothing to do with the teachings of Scientology. If Scientology isn't your cup of tea, then let it be just that. Making up extraneous lies about what they do just shows your ignorance and intolerance with Scientology.
I'm intolerant to intolerance.

No I'm sorry. When you are part of an organization that ruins families, destroys lives, brainwashes kids and adults alike and in some cases kills people, in my eyes you are no longer a person worth caring about.
"Yes, and you are part of the "amount of beep happening on this planet" "
Please elaborate?

I measure intelligence on the basis of a species compatibility to live in harmony with nature.

Yes, and you are part of the "amount of beep happening on this planet". It doesn't matter who the hell it was.they're still a person! Simply sad and pathetic what peoplb68e do and say.
I'm intolerant to intolerance.

Really? The amount of beep happening on this planet and you feel sorry for some Scientologist celebrities? Well done.

I measure intelligence on the basis of a species compatibility to live in harmony with nature.

I feel bad for
anyone
who has lost a child, or any family member, for that matter.
Everyone knows, that I'm ten feet under,
'Till you come along, and brighten my day

You wouldn't know anything about what this lady and her family are going through. All the self righteous losers on this board lack compassion and empathy and are pathetic in every way. Get a life, creeps.
My condolences to the Travolta/Preston family for the loss of their son and brother.

Any mother losing a child is horrible.
But, I wonder if she's not in an unhealthy state.
Don't bash me for saying she shouldn't be grieving, but she can't even talk about it almost a year later?
I know we all grieve differently, but there comes a point when you have to take a step forward, even a small one, or you risk being stuck in an unhealthy state.
"Normal" people couldn't take a year off of work to mourn. You deal in your own way and keep plugging along to pay your bills.
I've read how the CoS basically makes you go through a process in this situation where you deny the existence of the person and figure out where you went wrong to contribute to the death. I'll bet she's so brainwashed with stupidity it's pushing her off the deep end.
Cursing is a crutch for the communicationally-challenged.

Troy McClure9, the children that die everyday ARE in the news, it just happens to be local news because they are not known Nationally or Globally. The interest that people have in the happenings of a celebrity is no different than the interest people have with acquaintances that are in their life. If you know OF someone, wouldn't you automatically be interested in what happens to them. It has nothing to do with money or fame, not really. If a kid from your school or church or neighborhood dies, even if you didn't really know them well, wouldn't it raise your concern just because you had a connection with them, no matter how insignificant. If a celebritys kid dies, why would they deserve less of your sympathy or empathy just because they are rich or famous? Your logic and those that agreed with you is, at best, hypocritical because it's conditional on someones wealth and/or status. At worst, its heartless!

You're spot on. Non celebs lose kids every day. But that doesn't make it any more tragic. It is a horrible thing to lose a child. Anyone who has suffered this situation is worthy of pity.
The OP didn't say she was better or suffering any more due to her wealth or fame. He/she simply stated that this person suffered a great loss and then shared some sympathy for it. It isn't a competition. If I go to a funeral, people don't stop me on the way and tell me that millions of other people have died as well, so I am being a jerk for going to this one and not the rest.

What goes around comes around, I never bought her sweet innocent act. But it still sucks losing a kid, it changes U and not for the better either.
