Never took it as a personal attack, but thanks for saying so. I've met lots of people who feel exactly like you do... and I don't always think they're wrong. Some people have had bad experiences. Again, I was steeped in it since I was like 5, but even I don't believe the scientology part. IMO, scientology is BS. On that I think we agree.
The part of the 'church', as it were, that I think is on to something, is the Dianetics part of it... without going into detail, I can personally say that I've seen it work. Nothing miraculous, profound or dramatically life changing, but it did help a good deal. I even used a bit of it on my girlfriend (without really explaining what it was till after) when she was having really bad migraines. It worked on the headaches, and she was rather surprised. But that's just my take on it.
The thing that gets me is people who will spout off vitriol against something they know nothing about, wether it's Islam, Roman Catholicism, Firearms, the Libertarian Party or Scientology. Jarhead22, you obviously know a little bit about it, so at least you're qualified to have an opinion. So many people love to bash things because they heard a 'friend's sister's ex boyfriend's cousin was killed because he came into contact with __________', fill in the blank.
