From the beginning of human history to cash, belief has never withdrawn from the stage of history. From human beings who know nothing about the natural world to ignorant to now technology can understand a thing or two, belief has always existed in human beings in various forms. in society. Human beings are highly intelligent creatures from a racial point of view. From an individual point of view, they are solitary creatures that need to live in groups. No matter how wise they are rationally, they always need a support emotionally. Not to mention that we cannot understand this seemingly absurd religion, even Catholicism and Islam cannot be understood objectively by most Chinese people. Are we really as unbelievable as some people say? Personally, I think it's unlikely, but we don't realize it or some people's concept of faith is too narrow. As far as I am concerned, it was only after I really communicated with foreigners or Westerners that I realized that I believed in historical dialectical materialism from the bottom of my heart. There is no need to discuss.
We can't understand the Scientology doctrine and the behavior of believers from an outsider's point of view, but I understand the rationality of this behavior, because when I found myself arguing with foreigners whether the economic foundation determines the superstructure, I All were frightened. As for the religion and religious behavior formed because of my beliefs, I don’t quite understand it. This documentary also saw a layer of white sweat on me. People are scary and they can really scare people to death.

    Finding the meaning of life is difficult, but in any case, don’t be lazy and pin it on someone who claims to give you meaning. There is a section that is more humorous than the darkest humorous movie: a few people became high-ranking believers and got a precious handwriting from the founder, and it turned out that it was a vulgar science fiction novel.

    I know that Hollywood celebrities such as Atang Ge Travolta are crazy about Scientology (the translation is good, if you directly say Scientology, it feels more positive), and I also know the relevant controversy, but I don't know that there is such an ugly inside story. Except for the hole like a concentration camp, what made me stunned was the scene where Scientology interfered in the private life of Atang. The girlfriend who helped him find turned out to be the Iranian beauty in homeland security! Oh my God, what's wrong with everyone! ?

Going Clear: Scientology & the Prison of Belief quotes

  • Paul Haggis: I finally get to OT 3 and they give me the secret materials, which I've been hearing about all this time. They're hand written by Hubbard. You'd have to keep them in a locked briefcase, be very cautious because they would always say if this gets out it's dangerous to people. It can actually do them harm if they are not adequately prepared. And I read it and it doesn't make any sense... I think, I remember for one fleeting second thinking well maybe it's an insanity test. Maybe if we believe this they kick you out. You know? Maybe you're insane! That of course is not the case. They talk about, you know, the fact that the earth was created, that such and such of trillions of years ago and this guy, who's this space guy... and put them in volcanoes and then blow them up with A-bombs... And we have these lost souls all over us and we have to get rid of them. And I'm going what the fuck are you talking about? I mean, I'm down for the self-help stuff. I'm down for, ok, I can be clear, I can, you know, I can get rid of those, the negative emotions, but what the fuck is this?

  • Lawrence Wright: Scientology really is a journey into the mind of L. Ron Hubbard and the further you get into it the more like L. Ron Hubbard you become.
