Anonymous vs Scientology - Tales From the Internet
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 30 ต.ค. 2018
- Scientology had long been a target of mockery on the Internet, but it grew exponentially after an episode of South Park exposed more people to its inner workings. After they sent a legal threat to YTMND to take down a number of the sites that were made mocking them, YTMND's owner, Max Goldberg upted the ante by creating a new section on the front page dedicated solely to making sites at Scientology's expense. Among the jokes was a site called "The Unfunny Truth About Scientology," which exposed a large audience to more serious scandals that Church had, including the Lisa Mcpherson case.
After YTMND had moved on without Scientology following up on its threats, 4Chan took up the mantle against Scientology with its Project Chanology campaign.

One thing to consider is that in Germany the Church of Scientology is classified as a dangerous cult.
Michael Vella nice to see the German government aren’t completely retarded
Well that’s exactly what it is
Raider 2747 no shit
Raider 2747 i’m saying it’s obvious that he was referencing nazism oof
Good on Germany. Hopefully, Merkelreich will ban them, eventually.
"Endless black faxes were sent to drain their printer ink."
That's just evil.
*And* Glorious
Beautiful
On the contrary, it's definitely Chaotic Good.
That's the shadow the hedgehog of sonic equivalent move right there
That's pretty tame. Send in people with a talent like mine. which is being able to intentionally annoy literally anyone. People that know me can confirm that I am known to try and succeed at annoying people if I want to.
The reactions are hilarious, trust me.
My pops's a psychiatrist. I remember asking him about Scientology and Dianetics, and he was aware of them. He jokingly told me "There'll come a day when Tom Cruise will come into one of our offices because his kid needs care. Then we'd say 'Remember what you said about us?'"
@@roybatty9935 How so?
@@roybatty9935 I'm guessing you mean that he wouldn't serve Tom Cruise's son any treatment.
In that case, he would. Just a bit of a joke.
Of course it isn't the kid's fault to be born to Tom Cruise.

I was alive when it happened and it was pretty cool seeing that movement happening. We're almost likely to never see that kind of thing again.

@@gur262 but anonymous found the truth, and knows it now. But the beast is too big to fight and has compromised the media too. They're all in on it, and little can be done but hope for it all to collapse. Remember pizaagate? They invented the term "fake news" for that. Just like they coined the term "conspiracy theory". Know your history.
Issac hayes: i cant participate in a show that mocks religion
Also issac hayes: participated in a show that mocked other religions.
I don’t believe he really said that. His family said he was in a coma when he supposedly said that. He was already on his way out (of the show).
If he did say that, it would of been the most hypocritical thing I've heard in awhile. Shit, SP mocks everything... yet he gets miffed when they target HIS belief?
Killswitch Sevenfold That’s what would make such a lie especially appalling, that he wasn’t so dense to have not understood that. Doing the show gave a new generation an appreciation for him, and that statement was alienating (no double entendre intended 😄).
Not that “The Church” would’ve taken this approach, but it would’ve endeared people so much more if they just saw his being in on the joke. People really soften to someone who can laugh himself. And a lot of people will rattle off the entire gamut of jokes about their own religions. They’re the ones who will introduce you to the jokes, because they’re firm in their beliefs and unshaken by a little humor.
Yeah dude, that does makes more sense to be honest... however, didn't they have a recording of him or whatnot going off on Trey Parker and Matt Stone? I could of swore I didn't just imagine or misunderstand that.
Killswitch Sevenfold OK, I just found this quote from Isaac Hayes III from Tony Ortega’s site The Underground Bunker: “Isaac Hayes did not quit South Park; someone quit South Park for him. What happened was that in January 2006 my dad had a stroke and lost the ability to speak. He really didn’t have that much comprehension, and he had to relearn to play the piano and a lot of different things. He was in no position to resign under his own knowledge. At the time, everybody around my father was involved in Scientology - his assistants, the core group of people. So someone quit South Park on Isaac Hayes’ behalf. We don’t know who.”
Tom Cruise wasn't on Oprah.
He was on cocaine...its a hell of a drug.
I don't think so
My great grandpa was preacher. I explained to him what Scientology was asked what he thought about it he said it sounded like the ramblings of a drunk lobotomy patient.
pot calling the kettle black lol
He sounds like a smart man.
He was the same, what a hypocrite.
Banned in Germany . official reason "we saw this is in the past". Says everything !
Was it the fault of a short angry man with a silly mustache
Insert/pol/ joke
@@Goblinhandler naw just a short fat dude with fucked up teeth. (L.Ron Hubbard)
Unfortunately they are not banned, but under surveilance. I live near their headquarters in Berlin.
@@Goblinhandler Nah, it's most likely referring the the Munster rebellion.
When Christianity was changed and splintered into a bunch of different denominations the town of Munster adopted their own version that devolved to the point where it was basically a harem for the town elders. Younger men were killed or driven out while the elders took many young wives including children. Any dissent was met with torture/execution. Some seriously twisted shit went down. Fanaticism + Isolation + Charismatic leaders.
Eventually it got so bad that the German military showed up, surrounded the town, and starved them out. Basically the entire town was massacred down to the last man, woman and child. The leaders of the rebellion were tortured to death and hung in cages for all to see as a warning.
So yeah. Germany has some history with religions going rogue and causing serious problems.
In response to Isaac Hayes quitting the show, Trey Parker said it best “You cashed a lot of checks, when we were making fun of every other religion.”
I lost a lot of respect for Isaac Hayes, after he quit, and his reason for doing so. He’s the definition of hypocrisy.
His reason would make sense, if it were not for the fact that the show had done similar for other religions in the past. He made a fool of himself by giving that faulty reason.
Mr. Hayes was definitely pressured to quit South Park by higher ups in the cult. It's a real deal cult; if you don't do what they tell you there are real consequences. And if they want to kick you out its not just you getting the boot, they try to take your family and your friends and your career from you if they can. Mr. Hayes probably saw it as a lot easier to just close that South Park chapter of his life and forward the resignation email the cult sent him then stir up problems for himself and his family.
Hayes has been dead for years Oberstruhm
Someone quit the show for Hayes most likely a representative from Scientology
Scientology's cult brainwashing worked on him I guess
Can't believe I'd ever be rooting for 4chan, goes to show how horrifying Scientology is.
This was before 4chan became a politcal cesspool
@@somethingsomething9008
It always was one but now you disagree with their politics.

@@suppengroove
Nothing has changed, 4chan simply trolls people, they did not do this for any good reasons.
For you to incite 4chan into doing something, you need to assure they that there is somebody who's going to be mad.
@@aldiascholarofthefirstsin1051it genuinely wasn’t 2016 tourist
Remember when the internet used to be outraged by things like silencing, and fair game, and the like?
Now we hear about the government and big tech finding ways to do them each day and nobody gives a damn.
It actually kind of surprised me when the church said that the Communist Manifesto was anti-American. I don't think you'd hear that kind of stuff nowadays.
People care, it’s just that we’re all silenced when we speak out.
@@Sarah-qx4vz It's true. It's not that people don't want to speak up, it's because in the past people used to be able to openly criticize these kinds of things with no consequences and even gaining social praise from it. Now when people attack those kinds of things they risk losing their job, getting ostracized online by the rapid far left twitter cult and getting doxed, harassed, etc.
The irony with far lefties is that they still believe they are "the rebels", the ones that attack the system, meanwhile their ideology is backed by the Democratic Party that holds full power in politics atm and by just about all the richest most powerful businesses including all of big tech. Some rebels they are as social media backs them up by silencing and banning their opposition and every business in America changes their icons to rainbow flags and BLM propaganda.
They cry about the system oppressing them as they ally with the same system that is oppressing everyone else, and people get angry as hell because they notice this hypocrisy all the time. But no one wants to risk their livelihood by speaking up, it's not a game anymore, people really lose their jobs by speaking up against this kind of crap.

The minute someone refers to Anonymous as a unified group - or claims to be part of such a group - they immediately invalidate their own claims. That was the whole point of "anonymous": that it is the faceless legion, and can't be called a group.
I was part of the ASyd (Anon-Sydney) Chapter of Chanology about 12 years ago, and to begin with it was full of hope and affirmation.
After a year or so of my involvement, it had devolved into shouting in-group memes and screaming them at a building.
It had become a victim of it's own initial success as cliques formed and infighting began within its own internal structure.
We thought we were internet super-heroes, but most of us were bored kids wanting to belong to something bigger than ourselves.
The goal was pure and well intentioned, but the CoS saw us street kids for what we were, and waited us out until we got bored.
To this day, I wish that I'd been brave enough to take further steps against the 'Church', but I had a life to build, and couldn't dedicate more of myself to the cause.
This is one of my life's bigger regrets.
MelbAnon here! You're absolutely right about how it fell apart. It took a surprisingly long time to collapse, given the history of the movement. I think we were still at it almost a year and a half later, but the numbers weren't there anymore. The infighting shredded it, and growing up took care of the rest.
But damn if it wasn't a fun battle while it lasted. I just wish we had been able to acheive more.
I was wondering this for a while and I’m glad I surfed the comments coming back to this tale a couple years later. This is very interesting and explains why not many came up after it. Thanks bro!
For years there was an anonymous masked person standing outside the scientology building in downtown Vancouver...I was impressed every time I walked past the building there was someone there. I wondered if it was the same person or a group taking shifts.
South Park mocked those Scientologists like madlads😂 i wonder if they are still around to this day, theres reference of them in pretty much a lot of places, even games, like Dead Space

It's a part of their belief system to retaliate against criticism, which is the best possible thing you could want from a collective lolcow herd like Scientology.
Actually Isaac Hayes didn't quit because of that, a representative quit for him while he was recovering from a stroke
I read that in his voice...
It’s ok when it’s other people’s religion.
@@ThePablosin1 Yeah, a ton of people are ignorant to that.

The same people, mind, who warned me against 4chan in the first place.
I mean I’d call 4chan a microcosm of humanity. Sometimes it’s capable of beautiful things by banding together for a common good. Sometimes it’s just banding together out of sheer spite or sheer ‘heehoo chaos reigns’. Sometimes it’s making up stories. Sometimes it’s just weird porn. I mean I think often it’s weird porn.

Well, that stuff is insanely expansive. More worth than gold and one of the most expensive liquids in the world.
After Isaac Hayes passed, I believe it was his sons that actually came forward and stated* that the church actually sent out that statement about him leaving the show and forced him to stop doing it. They said that Isaac loved Trey and Matt and knew what they were all about so it was irrational for him to react like that.
Julio Ruiz If he allowed a representative to leave the show for him. Then he allowed it to happen. That’s ridiculous. Can someone quit your your job for you. Of course not. And if his health was so bad, how was he able to go on a radio show tour a few weeks after he left the show. And do cameos in movies. Don’t believe everything Wikipedia tells you. I believe that Scientology forced him to quit. They probably threatened to throw him out of the organization. But the bottom line is that he made that decision. He could have realized that a real religion who cares about your well being. Would never threaten to cast you out. He choose a bunch of fruit loop bullshit over his job. And that’s his right. Just make sure you own it for what it is.

I love how 4chan has a part in all of the best and worst moments of internet!
Isaac Hayes words about religion were complete BS because South Park made fun of every other form of religion and he never had a problem with it until they made fun of his. I'm glad they gave him that great send off a few episodes later lol.
Exactly, it's like that dumb Indian comedian who has a beef with The Simpsons over Apu. They make fun of every stereotype, religion and ethnicity but when you make fun of one of mine that's not cool man.
RIP Isaac Hayes
RIP Scientology
RIP that dumb Indian
@@kellyrobinson6543 He's a comedian and of Indian descent, I said "Dumb Indian Comedian" because I don't care to know his real name. And since I wrote "Dumb Indian COMEDIAN" This means I'm referring to his profession (comedian) as dumb and not his ethnicity (Indian).
@Kelly Robinson,Settle down, referring to someone as Indian isn't racist or wrong if they are Indian. Him being called stupid is because he did/said stupid things, not because of his race.
What kind of church has copyright? Last time I check only a business (cult) does that.

Everything that was shown in that episode of South Park precisely sums up what Scientologists believe. South Park managed to explain all of there insane core beliefs in the most simplest way giving the audience the best visual representation.

I always thought South Park did the Scientology episode AFTER the anon protests. Didn’t realize South Park was actually the catalyst for the whole thing
The whole thing with Isaac Hayes leaving South Park was debunked by his son.
Hayes didn't leave the show on his own fruition, it was initiated FOR him from a representative of Scientologist without his say so. Also, at that point, Hayes' health was deteriorating, he had a stroke that preventing him from talking, ultimately getting worse.
If he allowed a representative to leave the show for him. Then he allowed it to happen. That’s ridiculous. Can someone quit your your job for you. Of course not. And if his health was so bad, how was he able to go on a radio show tour a few weeks after he left the show. And do cameos in movies. Don’t believe everything Wikipedia tells you.

@@steliokontos8364 with that logic you're saying someone is a slave because they choose to be a slave
Tyler Nilson how did you stretch what I said into that. A slave is owned, and controlled. A slave makes no decisions for himself. Isaac Hayes was not one of these people you hear about who are hidden away in some forgotten trailer and forced to do manual labor. He didn’t live on the Scientology grounds. He came and went as he chose.
That totally explains the "Super Adventure Club" episode.
Do people ever think anymore?
@@steliokontos8364 Wasnt hayes in a degenerative coma, and unable to speak at the time? Saying that he had a choice is just wrong.
Here is the thing about scientology. There brainwashing methods work, and they work very well. You can be 100 percent knowledgeable about the brainwashing and it would still work on you. Watch the "Infiltrating scientology" videos that came out recently. Its by a couple dude bros, but it was very well made. It is what started me on this rabbit hole. The part that freaks me out a bit more is that the main dude gets brainwashed, and cant remember actual events of his life because it got changed from a 10 hour session of what is clearly brainwashing. He had to be told the correct series of events by his friend to actually claim the real memories back, and even then he cant remember the original story as well as he can the changed one.
Shit is fucking scary.
I remember getting baked in highschool with my computer friends and they were spamming emails and black faxes to the local scientology chapter. Had no idea what was going on but it was pretty funny.
I remember when my dad was a member of anonymous and he took this very seriously because the church or scientology took my aunt from us
On the issac hayes case, the creators of south park(trey and Matt) said it best - it was along the lines of 'we made fun of alot of people and different religions on south park but issac never had a problem with it and found it funny, but when we made fun of his religion he suddenly had a huge problem with the show, he's just a hypocrite'
Saber Pendragon allegedly the church forced him to leave the show
Religion = You can believe in it, even if you are not Part of an Organisation (Church), you are taking Responsibility to a God/Codex, you do not need to spend Money, your Decisions are free.
Sect = You have to take Responsibility to (a) living Person(s), you have to spend Money, you have to be Part of an Organisation, your Live/Decisions depends on that Organisation.

Trashbin2797 Are you a Scientologist and that’s why you’re mad? Or is it that you believe journalistic integrity is impossible and all journalists are “hack frauds”? Just trying to discern where you got your anger from after reading such a benign and friendly comment on a TH-cam video lol.
Sam I am wow you're stupid, it's clearly a joke. More fancy words and i could have post this to r/iamverysmart and get 10 karma.

In short, it’s a cult.
Just like every other religion
David McCooey I would disagree but hey it’s the internet.
@@InvAltDM Technically a cult is literally just a synonym for a religion. It means "a system of religious veneration and devotion directed toward a particular figure or object." It originally had no stigma.
Now it's often used to refer to small groups of people practice religious beliefs that are regarded as strange or sinister. Which is really just subjective. But technically the major religions aren't small groups, so doesn't really apply to them.
Cult sometimes force you to do somethings where religions are free to and choose
it is a religion, the word cult is for small groups, which is debatable, but nonetheless its a religion based on one mans claim to figuring it all out, in this way it is similar to mormonism or raëlism although the latter two are much less dangerous. i suppose all major religions were small cults at one point.
If they are tax exempt so is my Church of sadness. You just show up every Sunday and exist.
I’m imagining a “sermon” where everyone sits in a circle and talks about stuff:
“How’s everyone doing?”
“Wife left”
“That’s rough buddy”
Congregation: “That’s rough buddy”
“Hey, where’s Tim?”
“Don’t know”
“Someone mind calling him to see if he’s alright?”
That sounds like a more pleasant time than any church of scientology, not gonna lie. At least that kind of church is gonna be real with you.

Lol. Theres a scientology Church in my city.
I went in there once and asked about aliens.
They don't like that very much.
Really? You'd think being asked about aliens would be their bread and butter.
Like asking the Catholic Church about the blood of Christ existing in wafers.
@@Chipiliro613 this comment has made me have a sudden urge to walk into a catholic church with my own package of wafers and ask if they have a test to see if these include any christ blood as I have reverse vampirism and any traces of blood would instantly kill me.
@@Chipiliro613 Catholics will actually talk about it though, it's not a secret hidden behind tens of thousands of dollars in pay walls.
Steven Killeen they don’t know about aliens. The people in the churches aren’t high enough in the church to have read the documents that talk about aliens. They just think you are being a d$ck. They don’t believe anything you say and are not allowed to discuss the alien thing with outsiders if they do know. They believe it will kill you. Only a small percentage have read those documents and rarely would anyone in the churches storefronts had the time or money to be one of those few.
Y’all ever realize how much Whang looks like the Fawkes mask?
I remember back in the late 90's when I was like 10 in my little Australian country town of like 100 people, sat some machine that tested stress. Had no idea it was Scientology, sickens me that they tried to sign us up.
I was a freshman in college when Project Chantology went down. My roommate's friends were /b/tards back then and asked me to go down to the Scientology protest in our city. I was told to cover my face, because their goons were filming everyone in attendance. Good times.
It is remebering this that makes me against laws trying to force Antifa types to not wear masks at protests... Those people are douchebags, but protesting anonymously is important in a democracy.

I saw the Oprah interview of the time, but didn't think much of his "erratic" behavior because, frankly, celebrities were always incredibly overly dramatic on Oprah.
But looking back on it now I see two people who appear almost equally nuts.
Same.
Found the scientologist
I was there for the Anonymous protests. I am not tech savvy enough to carry out a ddos attack, but was there for IRL protests. I miss those days.
Using a personal army request, quickly post about Scientology.
This kills the imageboard.
Last year I had to do a project on a cult so I did it on Scientology. A girl in my class said that i was wrong because it’s not a cult it’s a religion and that I’m a bigot.....

The biggest thing is also: the vast majority of scienetology members (especially those that stay in the church for longer than a year) all joined decades ago and they arent getting enough new members to be sustainable

Also superhero movie

This just in. Tom Cruse is dead!
How? Were you living under a rock at the time? Lol
Same here
According to Hayes's son, he was forced by the cult to quit the show.
Well, shit. Now I feel bad.
Not shocking.
the ironic thing is that he didn't give a shit when SP made parodies of other religions.
Obviously.
That's what I heard as well. I can't even remember the exact source but the whole thing with Hayes didn't end with him telling off Trey and Matt but rather him tearfully telling them he HAD to leave yet he didn't WANT to and it broke his heart knowing he had to leave the show in such a manner.
seeing 4chan users dance to carameldansen reminds me of better times.......
both on the internet and real life........
This is the kind of Nostalgia trip only the internet could provide to a Millennial who saw some of the most ridiculous things happen with the internet throughout the decades;
Anonymous, Scientology... a battle equal parts cringe and humor fought upon the internet and IRL.
I love how Scientology was pretty much founded on a Science Fiction book
A science fiction novel that bombed so hard, he literally could not pay people to take it. So he did what any sensible, abysmal failure of a writer does; try to turn it into a religion.
It was founded by a failed Sci-Fi writer (and a complete nutjob) who wanted to get rich easily. Go figure.
Yep
Pretty much 😂 how can you believe anything a science fiction writer writes? 😂
"Pizzas were sent"
Damn shit got real SUPER fast.....
It’s like watching two heels fight.
One of my proudest accomplishments is that I recognized "Scientology" for the cult that it is way back in the late 20:th century. I was WAY ahead of the curve on that one! I even bought a copy of Dianetics for less than a dollar and actually read it just for the lulz. At the time I couldn't quite believe how all these creative, intelligent and seemingly well-read celebrities could fall for such an obvious con. That was a good decade+ before I got my autism diagnose. I now realize that neuro-typical people generally believe in stuff, not on the merits of their objective "truth value" or bayesian probability , but for entirely esoteric causes like psychological and social reasons.
Common people pay to Scientology, celebrities are bought by Scientology
Just remember that autistic people aren’t impervious to this. You are not immune to propaganda.
I searched up “Lisa Mc Fierson Scientology” My entire body froze. Don’t search it up if you have a sensitive stomach.
just came back from looking at them. not even anything gruesome 😂
@Ghetto Chicken Just because it doesn't upset you doesn't mean it won't upset someone else.
The thing is that it is actually a belief in Scientology that you must do everything you can to retaliate against people that mock the religion.
So basically the internet came upon the perfect lolcow cult because it's in its very belief system to not let things blow over and and it keep making itself look worse and worse. It's actually pretty funny when you think about it.
So like a less violent ISIS
So an infinite “poke bear, bear goes ‘roar’” loop.
Like half of religions have this clause.
12:45 This is how we should approach the BLM movement. It's an amazing movement, but there are ways we can get back without participating in illegal and immoral behavior.
Cast member of South Park: "i cant take this bigotry and mockery"
...
Do you even realize what show youve been on??
Well it was said in his name. Before dying he made contradictory statements for leaving such as not getting paid enough.
@@nopeyepp apparently the church made that statement for him and forced him to stop doing stuff for the show
@@Mate_Antal_Zoltan He chose to be involved in the cult.
He suffered a stroke and could barely speak scuentolgy spoke on his behalf
No one was arguing against that?
I remember when Hayes left South Park. I thought it was hilarious how he was a-okay with the show shitting on other religions, but don't you dare touch his.
Alicia his son said the church made him leave
@@48888David Actually, he had been recently written out of the show because he had a stroke that left him unable to speak at the time. The "church" issued the statement to the press saying Hayes had resigned, and the press just ate it up. No one spoke to Isaac directly because he literally couldn’t speak.
@@48888David I just saw that in another comment. It made me feel bad for him.
@@Capnsensible80 Dude. That's even worse. I was 14 when this came out and so I just believed the first thing I heard. I didn't even think to look further into it. Poor guy.

One time back in 2018 when my dad and our roommate and I were walking down Hollywood Boulevard, a guy in a suit stopped us and offered us movie tickets. As soon as we saw the synopsis we knew it was nonsense. The guy insisted but we said no thanks and walked away. I looked up in front of me to the side and there it was. The Scientology building itself.
You know, as a Catholic I was never once offended by jabs at my religion done in Family Guy, South Park or any of those shows.
I genuinely found those jokes funny.
Little story about my own encounter with Scientology here:
I work at a grocery store, and we have a bunch of magazines of course.
Well the title of one of the news magazines articles we had was "My Life in Scientology Hell".
And that was plastered in gold bold on the front cover.
A lady comes up to my line and asks to speak to a manager with this stern, and clearly offended voice.
I didn't resist her at all.
Believe me I thought she was being way too sensitive saying that having Scientology and Hell in the same sentence was some how discriminatory towards here belief (she was a Scientologist).
I saw nothing wrong with it, Hell was being used as an adjective to compare being part of Scientology to subjecting oneself to eternal condemnation.
“A lady comes up to my line and asks to speak to a manager with this stern, and clearly offended voice.”
Seems you’ve just encountered your everyday Karen, but a Scientologist Karen
Also Catholic and agree.
@@sebster555 I was about to say the exact same thing 😂 I think every group has it's own version of Karen.
@22- José F. Navas V. LMAO that's a hilarious (and pretty accurate) analogy. 😂😂
Late to this, but same. There are some religious jokes that bother me, but my reaction is usually to just stop watching that episode. If Jesus has a problem with it, He'll deal with it.
I read an article about Isaac Hayes and South Park where his grandson was interviewed. In it he stated that he believes that the Church of Scientology wrote that letter as Hayes was incapacitated with a stroke. He said that his grandfather was a lot of things but he wasn't a hypocrite. After South Park satirized every other religion without him saying anything he wouldn't have flipped over Scientology.
Yeah, I saw that too. But how would Matt and Trey jump the gun with just a letter? They must have known something else.
@@gbobzburner8687 That is a good question.
@@jaysoncornish4779 I dont know how it went down, I just know if I get two sides to a story... I try and find out what really happened, a third side, the truth. Of course I trust no one. Its just odd. And if there was some doubt, I dont think they would have done their "Death of Chef" episode where they made him out to be a pedophile.
@@gbobzburner8687 but the episode was more than though. He was brainwashed by the club and I think he did snap out of his, but it was too late and he died as he fell off the cliff (im not sure bout the latter part.) It was a touching episode in it's own weird little way. I think it was a fitting tribute. The guy did work for southpark for years, a lil pedo joke would make him proud.
@@lotus_dream Eh, I dont know. It is one of the weirdest things I have ever seen, not just the episode but the way everything played out. The little scraps of information I hear dont really complete the picture for me. Dont forget he shit all over himself... for like a straight 2 minutes. Could be because he was full of shit? Who knows, who will ever know?
Saw that south park as a teenager, bought the fundamentals of thought and read it. Shit is wild, they redefine a lot of words to fit their theology. After reading the book I went the the Denver Scientology Church to see whats what. Immediately it looks like a modern library mixed with a museum. The receptionists pair you up with a person who works there. The person you are paired with interviews you and asks/answers questions. Its very similar to a car salesman where they try to feed into your ego to manipulate you. After about 30 minutes I took their personality test. The person read it to me and then began to push Scientology courses to "fix" what was wrong according to my personality test. These courses aren't cheap, $500 each. After hearing that I politely told them I will think about it and left.
Cool experience if you're bored and want to see what Scientology is like in person
Isaac Hayes leaving South Park was just really, really sad. The man never had any problem when the show was poking fun at literally anything else but as soon as they brought up Scientology, it became a problem. Almost like he was forced to leave or something...
