I think they're doing a brilliant job and they should carry on growing and growing until the rest of the world sees sense like France has recently done and categorises Scientology as a DANGEROUS CULT.

Anonymous are non-violent protestors who, rather than using violence or other abuse, much prefer to reveal the truth about Scientology and it's members and let the facts speak for themselves.

Here is a video of a couple from here in the UK who almost lost their daughter to Scientology:

Their Youtube channel is called "GETBECKYOUT"

Here is an ex Scientologist who wants to see her daughter again:

Anonymous, as a movement, are doing a fantastic job and I hope they keep going until they win the fight against The Cult of Scientology.

I agree, they are brilliant. I don't know if you are aware of the history but Scientology has a practice of "dead agenting"

In this practice, Scientology targets critics and digs into their background and uses the information (true or not) to post on websites to discredit their critics. Some of what they've done is down right nasty. It was a great idea to hide their faces.

The Scientology-sponsored website religiousfreedomwatch.org features depictions of "anti-religious extremists," virtually all of whom are critics of Scientology.17 Featuring photos of the critics and claimed evidence of their personal wrongdoing (sometimes very vague, for example: "Documentation received by Religious Freedom Watch shows that Kristi Wachter paid an individual to carry out a specific project for her, and also instructed this individual to lie about what he was doing in case he was caught"). The "Religious Freedom Watch" site is often cited by alt.religion.scientology users as a contemporary example of "dead agenting."

Thank you for your response :)

Yeah - as far as I know, the "dead agenting" thing is their "Fair Game" policy, right?

"Some of what they've done is down right nasty"

Too true :(

They do things like stating that people are paedophiles (they like to accuse people of various sexual offences) and the such like. I had a look at their website the other day and they have a section dedicated to disspelling the many and various "myths" about Scientology. One of them is the Fair Game policy, which they claim was discontinued in 1968 or something similar (bull****!!!). As we know, people who speak out against the "church" today are, by default, considered Fair Game to the Cult of Scientology.

Thankyou very much for posting this question - it's good to see someone actually giving their honest views and opinions rather than just hovering between the two sides trying not to upset anyone!

Andrew, the reason you have voted my answer as unhelpful is because I've been voting on old undecided questions and found 99% of your answers to be unsatisfactory (as have the other experienced voters).

It is inappropriate to vote my answers unhelpful just because I've done so to you WITH GOOD REASON.

Unfortunately for you, you're clearly wrong here.

The question is "What do you think of the Anonymous group who protests Scientology wearing masks and creating anonymous youtube videos?"

Let's see that again...

Well done for trying though.

lily, he actually said "creditable" he tends to make those types of errors or short answers that often don't make any sense and yet votes others unhelpful.
