Scientology Vs. Godwin’s Law - History’s Lesson
I encourage everyone to think for themselves. In the wise words of George Santayana, “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.”
Let us remember, let us not repeat.

Pretty amazing video.
Did anyone else notice the narrator’s voice? Doesn’t he sound a LOT like Mike Rinder?
Thanks, D.

You know who else persecuted a religion? That’s right, Hitler!
Wait… did I do that right?

Good for you for posting this video Dawn.
Everyone should visit this guy’s channel and watch his other videos, imo, because he gets right to the heart of the matter.

He did? I thought you Scientologists preach that it was the mental health industry that was responsible for the horrors of the holocaust. You guys should really get your story straight before trying to appear sane.

I think Schwarzwald says it best.
Nevermind the “forty years ago” amnesia or the giant robot(Megadeus), though. =P

1. psychology of totalism The original and still relevant today. CO$ imposes an absolute world view on its members, which cannot be questioned. This is a known and proven system, works the same again and again.
2. The Nazi Doctors,
the rationale for the holocaust was that there is such a thing as “life unworthy of life”.
I believe that this is what “cult” leader T. Cruise is expressing when he says SP’s will be read about in history books. Someone should ask him what exactly he meant by that. This should not be allowed to pass.
3. Destroying the world to Save It
Asahara and Aum. Another example of the destructive power of a cultic absolute world view. This is not occurring in one group or only on the fringes of society. CO$ is one of the worst because of the singular/somewhat unique pathology of it’s founder. Other than that, it fits the mold of all that have gone before.
Good video, good post. Thank you.

Let’s not forget– who experimented with Scientology, and based some of his own beliefs on it?
Oh, that’s right, Charles Manson. Yep, he was a peaceful, clear-minded individual.
