Now, I'm really not sure what to think about this...

Basically, this is a group of anonymous people who hate Scientology and will apparently stop at nothing to bring the 'Church' down...

One of their favorite phrases is "Be Very Wary of the 10th of Feburary. Here's why...

So, what to think of all this? I personally agree that Scientology is a dangerous cult, and I for one am definately going to be watching the news on the weekend...

If it wasn't so hard to navigate LA I would go see how many people actually show up. Think I'm only like 10 miles away or something.

I am glad that they are doing something about it though, even though they may not have the 300,000 people they claim they do.

http://forums.enturbulation.org/index.php is a good place to start. Looking through the "Education and Research" board is quite informative. Then of course, there's the "Un-funny Truth about Scientology", a fairly old YTMND which can be found with a Google search for 'scientology'.

And theres also this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nO_kcUCQSl8

They're making a difference. Dunno how big of a difference it's gonna be, but even helping a handful of people is better than helping none at all. Besides, Anonymous' numbers are over 9000.

Mine will have to be an internet protest, there are no scientofilthy organisations within 500 miles of my home... Which is a good thing, most of the time

Same here. No Scientology churches in my Island State. I'd need to go over to mainland Australia to find one, and that is currently beyond my means.

I was thinking of going to protest, except those crazy Scientologists might get their hands on some explosives.

Good old anonymous.
I've been cheering them up on this little interwebs war, and got to say, I hope they succeed.

I mean seriously, that scientology is more like a cult then a church.

For anyone interested in some light entertainment, it appears Anonymous now has its own themesong.

Note, if you're not familiar with the Anonymous subculture, you probably won't get many of the references.

You guys just broke rules 1 and 2.

Fuck rules 1 and 2. Anonymous has gone public, at least on the internet. If anyone doesn't know where Anonymous is from, I'm not gonna come out and tell them openly, but fuck the stupidly secretive nonsense. Anonymous ain't about that shit. Rules 1 and 2 are primarily for raids, anyway, otherwise Anonymous would have zero population growth.

If 4chan had a 0 growth rate, it would still be fun and not suck.

Not necessarily. It would would just have stagnated and died instead of imploding and splitting off into a hundred different *chans. There's still some good there, if you have the patience for it.

Why is this not the better result? I don't see how a network of idiots is really better than a single site of intelligent people pretending to be idiots.
