The promotion of sects on the Internet are part of what we can call violence, like pornography, childish prostitution, racism, xenophobia...If I tell you that this sect is growing at an incredible rate... will it scare you ?
I am going to give you some clues : it is in the news, it is talked about in the media, TV and the worldwide web. It has been attacked, venerated, questioned and praised. And last clue, the main tenets of this Church are : you are an immortal spiritual being, your capabilities are unlimited, even if not presently realized. So, have you guessed what I am talking about ?
The answer is... scientology, founded by L. Ron Hubbard.
"We of the Church believe that man is basically good." If you look at the scientologist website, all that you find is believes in human kindness and human rights. We are explained the way humans should and can help each others to be somebody good and to achieve him/herself thanks to the others. They tell they help us in finding our own answers to life questions. And they praise a better a better education and literacy. Sounds interesting, isn't it ?
But, just read "Another day in Scientology-land" by Catarina Pamnell : my_story and you will see how she started on the road to total freedom to end up to in a Scientology labor camp ! "When you follow the path of blind belief, there is a risk you will end up doing things which are very, very much contrary to whatever good intentions you started out with."
However, Scientology is really powerful, with a lot of adepts, like stars... Can young influencial
people distinguish what is good and bad in it ?...>> youtube.
