On the 10th February Anonymous led protests where held outside Scientology Churches and missions worldwide. including; Manchester, Sydney, Orlando, Washington, Dublin, London, Philidelphia, Boston, Vancouver, Atlanta, Birmingham, Brisbane, Clearwater, Dallas, Oslo, Toronto, Minneapolis and quite a bunch more if you search on youtube

From what I can tell between 5000 and 10000 protesters turned out worldwide.

Quite a few TV news reports made mention of the protests, but in general it appears mainstream media interest is low.

Anonymous are orchestrating a second event on 15th March 2008. It will be interesting to see what sort of turnout that attracts. It might be Anonymous' biggest test... keeping the attention of the "ADD Generation" who appear to form a large percentage of their "troops" so far.


Is this a conspiracy? Anonymous would have us believe that the upper "management" of the church, and in particular it's current leader David Miscavige, conspired to take over the church, alter "source" texts and generally use it for their own evil games and ends. That the church actively breaks up marriages and demands members "disconnect" from any family or friends deemed to be "Suppressive". (allegedly more then 2500 people)

There is allegations of brainwashing, systematic mental and physical abuse on both adults and children, people needlessly dieing whilst in the care of Scientology practitioners, that the whole organisation is an elaborate MLM scam and so on.

I kind of 'get' how people dabble with the basic lower levels of Scientology to some extent.. as that appears to be a fairly legitimate attempt at a self help program from what I have read, but too many reports such as David Miscavige's cruel game of Musical Chairs played out in 2005 with some of his most senior and loyal staff (at the time), leave me thinking the upper levels of the church are in a very bad way.

I've learned enough to hope that some sort of policy change or investigation or coup occurs in the management of Scientology already, but will reseve my final opinion until more facts are known.

Bill Maher, host of HBO's Real Time with Bill Maher, has been a frequent critic of 9/11 conspiracy theories, stating for instance on the September 14, 2007 edition of Real Time, "Crazy people who still think the government brought down the Twin Towers in a controlled explosion have to stop pretending that I'm the one who's being naïve. How big a lunatic do you have to be to watch two giant airliners packed with jet fuel slam into buildings on live TV, igniting a massive inferno that burned for two hours, and then think, 'well, if you believe that was the cause...' "

On October 19, 2007 Maher had several conspiracy theorist hecklers ejected from his show audience.

Enjoy a few videos of the ongoing battle. :)




Like sands through the hourglass... :p

A very interesting 1982 interview with Norman Dodd, who in 1954, was the Staff Director of the Congressional Special Commitee to Investigate Tax Excempt Foundations (The Reese Commitee).

In this interview conducted by Ed Griffin, Dodd is telling us about his research into the tax-exempt organization, what they really get up to and what they stand for.

He alleges that the Carnegie Endowment, the Ford Foundation, the Guggenheim Foundation, and the Rockefeller Foundation joined together to alter American history and take over the whole education system in America, so the children can be indoctrinated into accepting a World Government.
