If you watched Panorama tonight, you'll really enjoy this:

BBC documentary filmed quite a few years ago, about the goings on inside the Church of Scientology in London.

Feel free to leave your comments on this documentary or the Panorama documentary shown tonight... :)

    Me and the wife are still on dial up, at least until I get my Greencard or she gets her business up and running (whichever comes first, most likely her biz since she opens on the 29th). So I won't be downloading anything bigger than a few Megs for now.

    Thanks anyway lets just hope it stays available for DL until my situation changes.

    You can find a decent quality version (350mb) on isohunt aswell.
    Oh, no. Every time you turn up something monumental and terrible happens.
    I don’t think I have the stomach for it.

    them blokes are messed up, i mean in all honesty how can you believe that some aliens came down millions of years ago to create mankind. we all know god created adam and eve and it all went from there.

    and to get that mad when there belief systems were attacked, just crazy, you wouldn't get muslims acting in that way.

    Ha ha very good. Had that chat a few times with some other people who laugh at muslims saying they'll go to heaven and be with virgins and laugh at that. Hold on, youre religious, you believe in Adam and Eve etc and Jesus, and that isnt crazy ?

    Funnily enough, Tommy's aggressive manner had much the same effect on me.

    Perhaps when I achieve Operating Thetan level 8 I'll be able to rise above such feelings of anger... :)

    Scientologists are fucking wankers simple as, and those bitches in Hollywood that do that fucking Kabballah bullshit need their throats cut as well. Dozy fuckin' tools, what happened if somebody genuinely believed in this crazy shit but were a normal member of society. They couldn't practice their beliefs if male because they hadn't been iniciated by Tom Cruise, and if female invited to join by Madonna the fuckin' poisonous saggy old bitch cunt, I'd like to stab that bitch in the fuckin' neck. My feelings of hatred would not be so strong if it wasn't for her pathetic pot-British accent. "Hell-o I am Mad-onna I am loving being in the Ingy-Land please!".

    Stay in Yanksville bitch!!!!!

    It's not the beliefs that are the problem particularly, otherwise it would be just another bunch of harmless loonies. The danger is from the way the "church" of scientology milks vast sums of money and/or favours from its believers by conning them into thinking they can buy their way to a higher state of being.

    If you ask a priest of most traditional religion to tell you more about it, they'll almost certainly do so gladly, and for free. They might even give you free books about it. If you reprint a traditional religious text on the internet or in a newspaper, you will not get sued for copyright, in fact the followers of that religion will probably be glad to see it being publicised.

    If you ask someone high up in scientology to tell you more about it, they'll ask you for your credit card first. If you do pay and then try to give the "higher level" info away to others for free, the scientologists will come after you.

    Whatever you think of the actual beliefs, you can't possibly condone the way scientology uses those beliefs.

    No no, you have it all wrong -- Dan Brown created the Illuminati and the Illuminati created antimatter, and that's how it all got going. :lol:
