			<description><![CDATA[I think the way you describe Scientology is pretty accurate. I agree that one of the biggest problems with it is how much is cost, which has been one of the points of criticism and for good reason. How can Scientology say it is there to help people and then make is unaffordable? If this is the doing of Mr. Miscavige, then he needs to either reconsider this decision or step down. Why can't the organization be run by a council with an elected head of the counsel. This seems to work for the Supreme Court. I believe that if Scientology was more available to everyone, the better it will be perceived by the public and the more people will be willing to see Scientology as it really is and not be swayed by the things that have been said about it by those with questionable motives.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[This is a clear read on Scientology. Your interpretation of the Biblical Heaven is poor and sadly misleading. It will not be like that at all, but you write what you wish. I do agree with what you say about David Miscavige and it needs to be heard by everyone. Dianetics, as a tool, is interesting. My wife is a counselor and she discovered something like it on her own 10 years ago and it is very effective in healing people. So, I will not question the effectiveness of Scientololgy; maybe some techniques, but I have to admit ignornce there. I do not trust psychiatry or credentialed counselors. Counseling is a gift; either you have it or you don't. If you don't have it, don't try to heal people.]]></description>

			<title>implied blackmail</title>
			<link>https://mail.scientology-cult.com/what-is-scientology-really.html#comment-4616</link>
			<description><![CDATA[No other “religion” makes its members pay massive sums of money for spiritual enlightenment. I am also concerned that personal information is retained by the organization and this personal information is used as “implied blackmail.” Sure, religions like the Catholic Church have confession but the Catholic Church does not write down members transgressions and hold them over the members head for life. Again, what I find wrong is “implied blackmail.”]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[I observe that everyone enters Scientology with some sort of hope. For me, it was self improvement even though I thought I was just fine. I tool a basic course on communication which I thought I had a black belt in. I was wrong. Then I learned the spiritual side of life. Having been raised as a "Baptist" I thought they cornered the market on the spirit and I was again wrong. The communication course - a basic course is what Scientology is about. Using basic principles to create miraculous results rather than effort. My hope was that the registrar was wrong and that it didn't work. I was glad it did. I got promoted fast and doubled my income. To me, that got better results than any think and grow rich book I ever read. It gave me hope. You are right. DM is robbing people of hope. I am here to tell you that if you are still in and reading this, you have better chances of getting real Scientology and actually making it up the bridge out here in the real world. There is hope - that is Scientology.]]></description>
