CESNUR - "So Many Evil Things": Anti-Cult Terrorism via the Internet On the other hand, as noted by Usarski (1999) with reference to Germany, the publication of inflammatory documents by both private organizations sponsored by government, and by the government itself, proclaiming that literally hundreds of cults are pure evil, and that the country is at war with them, is dangerous. Finally, there is a list of "miscellaneous support for Scientology", including both academics and other scholarly "cult apologists" (Hausherr maintains an encyclopedia of cult apologists in the form of a FAQ, and posts it regularly to Usenet groups), as well as others accused of being "soft" on Scientology. Together with Aum Shinri-kyo, Destouche (1999, 38-143; 238-239) lists the Church of Scientology, the Jehovah’s Witnesses, Transcendental Meditation, Soka Gakkai, the Raelians, New Acropolis and the Church of Satan. www.cesnur.org /testi/anticult_terror.htm   (11826 words)

Google A number of organizations (most controversially the Church of Scientology) have used the Digital Millennium Copyright Act to demand that Google remove references to allegedly copyrighted material on other sites.

International Society Control by the Church of Scientology Cultural traditions and legal restrictions concerning both religion and mental health practices vary from country to country, and Scientology and other ideological organizations must adapt to these boundaries in their efforts to gain entry into various nations. Even before Scientology began systematically portraying its founder as among history's "most acclaimed and widely read authors," Hubbard and his organization had been marketing him in a manner to ensure that he had a huge audience on a morally neutral set of topics. Scientology portrays itself in North America and much of Europe and Australia as a religion (see Kent, 1990: 398, 401-403) yet even a cursory examination of the organization reveals that it is much more. www.solitarytrees.net /pubs/skent/isc.htm   (8907 words)

Battlefield Earth + Government Intervention That the notorious cult of Scientology has placed fourth generation subliminal messages in the "BattleField Earth" film master to surreptitiously attempt to recruit new members from the movie audience and to influence the audience to develop an aversion toward mental health organizations and practices. If proven true, the allegations of subliminal messaging embedded in "Battlefield Earth," designed to recruit children and young adults into an extremist would not simply mean movie-goers were defrauded of $7 and conned into viewing a Scientology recruiting and propaganda film disguised as science fiction. If the allegations of fourth generation subliminal messaging in "Battlefield Earth" are established as fact, this would be the first known instance in Western society outside controlled testing in the psychological warfare sections of the government that these techniques are being used on the general public. www.factnet.org /govintervention.htm   (1552 words)

PDS Russian Religion News April 1998 The list of satanic and demonic cults in the handbook "New Religious Organizations of Russia of a Destructive and Occultic Character" (Belgorod, 1997) exposes the Church of Scientology, founded by the mediocre science fiction writer Lafayette Ron Hubbard (1911-1986). It says in the book that after World War II he "took an active part in the activity of one of the satanic sects, whose founder was the famous satanist Alistaire Crowley, from whom Hubbard took many of his ideas in the creation of his pseudoscientific system. This "passing," in Evgeny Volkov's words, episode from the life of Sergei Kirienko was described by the docent to many people, including Alexander Dvorkin, an American citizen who is famous as an opponent of sectarianism as a whole and Scientology in particular. www.stetson.edu /~psteeves/relnews/9804a.html   (6290 words)

Belgium The report included a list of 189 sectarian organizations, including the Jehovah's Witnesses, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, the Church of Scientology, and the Young Women's Christian Association. Although the introduction to the list stated that there was no intent to characterize any of the groups as "dangerous," the list quickly became known in the press and to the public as the "dangerous sects" list. The five criteria are not listed in decrees or laws, and the Government does not formally define "sufficient," "long period of time," or "social value." A religious group seeking official recognition applies to the Ministry of Justice, which then conducts a thorough review before recommending approval or rejection. www.state.gov /g/drl/rls/irf/2003/24346.htm   (2402 words)

International Society Control by the Church of Scientology The current Special Affairs office handles all contact with outside agencies, organizations, and prominent individuals, and one of its recent activities included efforts to "research and expose the abuses of psychiatric 'treatment'" (Office of Special Affairs, 1987: 3). Hubbard's assertion, however, that Scientology is a non-political enterprise is not supported by his own actions and organizational directives, including documented instances when he attempted to establish himself and his ideology among the political (and sometimes military) elites of various nations. Also in the same year another Scientology publication bolded proclaimed that "[w]e set out to eradicate the psychiatric suppression form society, so that truly workable LRH technology can instead be applied to improve conditions" (Weiland, 1990: 21). www.cs.cmu.edu /~dst/Library/Shelf/kent/isc.html   (8941 words)
