The Truth About Scientology

TAS : The Truth About Scientology

Welcome.

Concerned about altered tech? Scientologist Gene Zimmer has documented a dramatic alteration in the definition of the second dynamic!

What do you know? What do you want to know?

If you're a Scientologist or if you're interested in the technology of Scientology but have some concerns about outpoints within the Church of Scientology, this site is intended for you.

If you're a member of the public who's curious about Scientology, particularly allegations of and convictions for criminal acts, court rulings on the organization's deceptive practices, and more information about the human face of Scientology, you may be more interested in my other site, www.scientology-lies.com.

(Of course, you may find that both descriptions apply to you. Feel free to browse both sites if they interest you.)

In either case, you may be interested in Scientology's legal threat against this Web site (falsely claiming trademark infringement) and Scientology's DMCA (Digital Millenium Copyright Act) attack - neither of which has permanently affected this site - as well as Google's sudden decision to reject advertising for the scientology-lies.com site.

This site provides factual information about Scientology that is typically omitted from the information provided by the Church of Scientology to the general public - information such as

Scientology statistics
information about alterations of the tech, and
stories of people and events that figured prominently in Scientology's history but are little known to many current Scientologists.

Safe for Scientologists: This site is designed to be a safe place for Scientologists to get factual data about outpoints in Scientology's management. While the information doesn't paint the same rosy picture of Scientology's health as you'll hear at Scientology events, I've taken care to avoid any mention of confidential upper-level information.
