I realize the Cult completely lacks self-awareness for how their blind defense of Joesus is perceived nationally, but Jesus Effing Christ, the linked BWI thread on Leah Remini's A&E show about Scientology is even amazing for BWI. An entire board of people that defend a pedophile enabler and will not tolerate any dissent have no issue with calling out others for being in a Cult.

MontereyLion: "Cult"
PennSt8ter: "It actually reminded me of our BoT. A bunch of assholes playing dictator so they can control the loot. The FBI needs to roll in and throw some people in jail."
Grass: "David Miscavige is one scary dude. Hard to believe how many families get torn apart within Scientology and how long it takes people to wake up."
schoolie: "Just amazing people get sucked into that kind of stuff. No further comment necessary."
mrtailgate: "I didn't know that history but there is huge money involved there for sure. But how they allow a cult that commits crime and evades taxes to get and maintain its exempt status is beyond me."
Alden T: "Of all the nutiness and sadness and horror of this cult, the one item from the series that sticks out to me is: if this is a church, ask a scientologist what his/her religious beliefs are. Just the basics. A Christian can do that. A Jew and Muslim can too, easily. What are the beliefs of this church other than to stroke its 5 foot tall leader's ego and line his pockets?
Scary, fascinating, and sad."
Class of 67: "Add scientology to many other beliefs and organizations and one has to wonder how many sane, civil, humane persons exist in this country!"
gslchta: "Wait, sounds somewhat like our BOT but not as bad."
SR108: "What's amazing is that people like Cruise bought/buy into this."
