HBO Poland withdraws film on scientology

HBO Poland have unexpectedly withdrawn the film "Droga do wyzwolenia" from its schedule. The documentary exposes the propaganda and shady dealings of a fraudulent mega-cult known as the Church of Scientology. Rushmore have circulated that the station fears reprisals from the powerful but shadowy, celebrity-supported (Cruise, Travolta, etc.) organisation. Fortunately the "church", thought up by a science-fiction writer, has been banned in many countries including Poland.

The Church of Scientology is banned however plenty of Scientologists are members of other affiliated bodies rather than the church. There are Scientologists in Poland (fortunately only a few as far as I know) and the (I forget the correct name) Scientology Crisis Volunteers (or some such) do have a small presence in Warsaw.

Not all Scientoogists are bad people - indeed most are good, however the organisations are toxic.

Not all anything are bad, only gullible and deluded. Why a dingbat sci-fi scam group blasphemously uses the Cross of Jesus as a symbol is beyond me except to get tax-exempt status normally accorded to religious denominations. Wouldn't touch it with 17 barge poles.

Im sure they think something equally distasteful regarding conventional religion.

A lot of the Scientology stuff seems to have been made up as they go along. Interestingly, all,the secrets that their members/students have to pay (though the nose) for is available free online. Scientologists who believe in it but who don't want to be part of David Miscaivige's collection of organisations have set up something called the Scientology Free Zone. Some of it is actually quite interesting.

Miscaivige

One must presume that the original spelling was Mickiewicz, coincidentlaly the name of Poand's great 19th-century Romantic bard.

I hadn't thought of that one! I doubt it's true, or he'd have tried to make something of it...

I watch a full film on all the big shots who left
They were TOP LEVEL GUYS... The final learning and they open a secret box holding the truth all only for top level eyes

And its a movie script about aliens.

Each time these Scientology execs get to the top and see this ..

THEY ALL QUIT!

That's OT3 level which costs around $360,000 to reach. Currently it goes up to OT8 (the highest levels may have been changed after Hubbard's death) which is in any case available on Wikileaks etc
