	Xenu - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Hubbard's statements concerning the R6 implant have been a source of enormous contention between the Church of Scientology and its critics, with many critics and Christians stating that Hubbard's statements regarding R6 prove that Scientology doctrine is incompatible with Christianity [3] [4] [5] [6], despite the Church's claims to the contrary [7].
		Scientology's "Sea Org", an elite group within the church that originated with Hubbard's personal staff aboard his fleet of ships, takes many of its symbols from the story of Xenu and OT III.
		They claim the story is evidence Scientology is a scam and a confidence trick, and at the very least the Church peddles bad science fiction; they maintain that spreading the story informs the public of what the Church actually sells and is thus in the public interest.

	About the Church of Scientology® Its symbols, history, belief and practices
		Scientology teaches that this idea is patently false, unworkable, and acts as a barrier to personal understanding of life.

		With the act of exteriorization, attainable in Scientology, the individual gains the certainty that he is himself, an immortal spiritual being, and not a body.

	Scientology: The Thriving Cult of Greed and Power
		Scientology doctrine warns that even adherents who are "cleared" of engrams face grave spiritual dangers unless they are pushed to higher and more expensive levels.
		Outside the U.S., Scientology appears to be most active in Germany where the attorney general of the state of Bavaria has branded the cult "distinctly totalitarian" and aimed at "the economic exploitation of customers who are in bondage to it." In 1984 nearly 100 police raided the church in Munich.
		This led to a Scientology plot (called Operation Freak-Out) whose goal, according to church documents, was "to get P.C. incarcerated in a mental institution or jail." It almost worked: by impersonating Cooper, Scientologists got her indicted in 1973 for threatening to bomb the church.
