That lady is seriously projecting.

Seriously, guys, the "crimes" thing isn't working. That's like their standard accusation.

This video is no longer available due to a copyright claim by Church of Scientology International

If I may do a little self-promoting here, my friend Scott and I were asked by Radar magazine to "infiltrate" the Scientology headquarters and do an undercover report a year or two back. It was probably the weirdest couple hours of my life. Scott wrote, I cartooned:

Scott's a great writer, I think all you FOTs will thoroughly enjoy this!

I subscribe to Radar. Do you have any inside information regarding Radar's next flame-out? I'm not asking if they're going to gay it up by putting a photoshopped Tom Cruise on the cover again. I'm asking when Radar's current incarnation is scheduled to fold and presumably relaunch several months later with new financial backers.
If they do fold again, I'm blaming my brother. I offered to get him a subscription for ten bucks, but he just wants me to forward my issues to San Francisco after I've finished reading them.

I believe they're scheduled to collapse this May, regroup, and collapse again sometime at the end of November

Very funny article. Scientology scares me, though. Although I have it to thank for my best off-the-cuff comment ever: when asked on a Boston street one time whether I'd like to take the personality test, I replied, "No, thanks. I don't want to have my illusions shattered." (I know I've talked about this before--in the chat, I believe--but I have so little to brag about, I hope you'll bear with me).
BMW, I'm sure your self-portrait does not do you justice. And I think "You'll find yourself at age 50 with no teeth left in your mouth because you've gotten in so many fights, and no friends left except people who hate themselves as much as you hate yourself" should be your signature here from now on.

Also, all of the Tom Cruise videos are on gawker.com. The Church of Scientology is trying to sue them or something, so they've created a whole section of their website devoted to Tom Cruise. Which is pretty funny, I think.

A huge attack on Scientology started at 6pm today.
Scientology website is down due to a DDOS attack, also they are sending huge faxes to all their fax numbers and prank/nuisance calling all of their phones.
There's supposed to be some sort of real life actions taking place too.
In my day we played knock down ginger and smashed stuff.

This is pretty funny to follow. There's even a radio station to listen too with music, instructions and updates.
I am merely observing by the way.

While you're at it, who was the worst-ever host at Saturday Night Live?
(sorry Laurie, I had to do it)

That video is kind of a snooze.
Tom Cruise laughs at himself more than Paul F. Tompkins.
Does something being barely watchable make it "scary"?

I'm too chicken to call one of the emergency numbers, but someone totally should.

most people are only seeing the edited version of him speaking
the scary thing to me is the whole package
where they talk about rescuing or "clearing" the world.

Press release from the cyber-vandals, good writing I thought. -
Associated members of the press,
On the 19th of January 2008 at EST 1800 we began to wage electronic warfare on the strongholds of Scientology that blight the World Wide Web. The assault has taken down their websites, impaired their internal communications and shall extract the coveted fallacies that they hold dear in order to extort the weak, vulnerable and the unfulfilled.
We who grew with these tools, who developed as individuals bound to the machines that we use to connect, to unite and to manipulate the world around us. We for whom the technologies became not instruments of function but extensions of ourselves, innate as the use of our hands to control our environment. We few who emerged from the unfathomable nebulae of electronic interaction with a sense for our surroundings, so disparate from the flesh and bone of the physical world yet keen as the touch of our fingertips.
We gather here with conscience and righteous outrage against the false piety and systematic racketeering of the great false cult of Scientology, and its false god of L.Ron.Hubbard. United in our faith, we will destroy the bastions of those who would corrupt what frail spirituality still perseveres in the world of the West.
No cell will be harmed, no pound of flesh demanded; we unite and infiltrate for the single purpose of expunging that which is most insidious: the mere informational reality of the fetid ideology that dares to entrance the hearts of the needing. Our targets are that which is more real to us than the skin on our lips: the peaks and troughs of potential, the one and the zero that define existence in this world of ours. More real than man.
The attack has commenced: their websites are down, and our pillage of their secrets shall be swift and devastating. Your hatchets are our scalpels; we will dissect and remove that which must be destroyed.
Our faith as one in man; lies must be exposed.
It has begun.

I don't like it... I love it!

hey
whatever keeps the kids out of trouble I say.

I don't get why people care so much. Yeah, it seems stupid but any religion is going to sound stupid to a non-believer most of the time. Yeah, money is involved, but why should we care what people spend their money on? There are definitely a lot of weird things going on with Scientology but I just don't get why everybody has developed such an intense dislike for it. I don't think it's really harming anybody other than the people who are buying into it and that's their choice. Right?

When I first moved to L.A. I was really freaked out by Scientology stories I heard, but over time it just seems as apeshit as any other gigantic apeshit religious organization. The actual mythology of Catholicism is not necessarily less insane than Scientology if you look at it in an objective way, but I still consider myself basically a Catholic. I think the "What crimes have you committed?" thing is freaky and uncool, but it's not necessarily more crazy than a crazy Evangelical sect. I think it's kind of healthy for Scientology to get shit, but I think some of the upper eschelons (sp??) of right wing evangelical churches are actually a bit more frightening if only for the fact that they have real sway with actual politicians. Tom Cruise is obviously the best thing Scientologists have got; the most prominent member who is willing to shill for them. He's obviously bonkers and I think his obvious bonkers-dom takes a lot of the sting out of a lot of real earnest anti-Scientology grandstanding. Having said that, I really enjoyed those hackers' manifesto.

In this one, I think the filmmaker and the second Scientology guy came out even.

By the way, when I say not more crazy than the regular church, I mean taking into account all of history. Like, the Spanish Inquisition and shit.
-
Or, say, Mormons slaughteringa whole wagon-train (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mountain_Meadows_massacre) because Brigham Young said the apocalypse was a-comin' and stuff.

Holy Shit. I don't know why, but that seals it. People boiling themselves is one thing, but for some reason that really creeped me out. And I'm not being sarcastic. Yeesh.

What got me was his tone when he said, "She doesn't mind my using her name" (or some such). Contempt dripped.

I got to this through the L.A. Times(!). Spooky stuff. And at least partially ridiculous.
Dude, I knew Baby Phat was evil but I didn't know why until now!
