Calling War On Scientology!

Filed under: Etc.

This is some scary Matrix shit!

A group calling themselves "Anonymous" has declared war against Scientology and created this creepy video announcing their campaign.

Here they are, in their own words:

"Hello, Scientology. We are Anonymous.

Over the years, we have been watching you. Your campaigns of misinformation; suppression of dissent; your litigious nature, all of these things have caught our eye. With the leakage of your latest propaganda video into mainstream circulation, the extent of your malign influence over those who trust you, who call you leader, has been made clear to us. Anonymous has therefore decided that your organization should be destroyed. For the good of your followers, for the good of mankind–for the laughs–we shall expel you from the Internet and systematically dismantle the Church of Scientology in its present form. We acknowledge you as a serious opponent, and we are prepared for a long, long campaign. You will not prevail forever against the angry masses of the body politic. Your methods, hypocrisy, and the artlessness of your organization have sounded its death knell.

You cannot hide; we are everywhere.

We cannot die; we are forever. We're getting bigger every day–and solely by the force of our ideas, malicious and hostile as they often are. If you want another name for your opponent, then call us Legion, for we are many.

Yet for all that we are not as monstrous as you are; still our methods are a parallel to your own. Doubtless you will use the Anon's actions as an example of the persecution you have so long warned your followers would come; this is acceptable. In fact, it is encouraged. We are your SPs.

Gradually as we merge our pulse with that of your "Church", the suppression of your followers will become increasingly difficult to maintain. Believers will wake, and see that salvation has no price. They will know that the stress, the frustration that they feel is not something that may be blamed upon Anonymous. No–they will see that it stems from a source far closer to each. Yes, we are SPs. But the sum of suppression we could ever muster is eclipsed by that of the RTC.

Knowledge is free.

We are Anonymous.

We are Legion.

We do not forgive.

WE DO NOT FORGET.

Expect us."

    calling your self a band of demons is really an effective way of being taken seriously dumbasses. (Legion for those of you who have never picked up a Bible or only read the "extreme awesome" edition is the name of a group of demons who lived inside of a man that Jesus cast out into some pigs because it was not yet "their time" to be cast into eternal damnation)

    Who cares about scientology? Their major crusaders don't even have a GED.
    Just get Beck "enlightened" and I will be fine. How can he make such funkadelic music and be so retarded when it comes to his beliefs?
    Whatever- if people want to waste their lives tearing others down (Perez, Anonymous) then have at it. I really don't think that Tom Cruise could give two shits about any of it as he is richer than any fat unkempt blogger could make in his lifetime.

    This is brilliant! If more people called them out on their L. Ron Hubbard given right to DESTROY anyone that speaks out against them or even mocks them, including (what some people believe) driving desenters to suicide or setting up auto "accidents" then this cult would have a lot to attone for.

    What a load of croak.

    And for all you young ones, who have no idea what the bible or organized religion is….

    Legion was mentioned in the great book ;) — puke. There was a man possessed by demons, and when Jesus asked him who occupied this man, the man responded "I am legion…" blah blah. Anyway, this force was powerful and Jesus exorcised all the demons into a herd of pigs, which then ran off of a cliff.

    I have no idea why I know this….

    wow, i'd have to say that this whole "anonymous" deal is even more obscure and insane than scientology itself.

    Subject: FW: Who is Barack Obama?

    Who is Barack Obama?

    Probable U. S. presidential candidate, Barack Hussein Obama was born in Honolulu, Hawaii, to Barack Hussein Obama, Sr., a black MUSLIM from Nyangoma-Kogel, Kenya and Ann Dunham, a white ATHIEST from Wichita, Kansas. Obama's parents met at the University of Hawaii. When Obama was two years old, his parents divorced. His father returned to Kenya. His mother then married Lolo Soetoro, a RADICAL Muslim from Indonesia.? When Obama was 6 years old, the family relocate to Indonesia. Obama attended a MUSLIM school in Jakarta.

    bwahah, this is funny. i like how they used the main theme from the old playstation game shadowman. You go against all the "evils" of the different time eras, and the main bad guy at the end uses the exact phrase "you can call us legion. for we are many". So maybe shadowman is really really against scientology?

    MAN I wish they wouldn't do that. They are achieving the total OPPOSITE of what they are trying to accomplish.

    Now scientology can claim that their freedom of speech and religion is attacked. They are actually AIDING scientology and harming the critics with this.

    I wish they would have thought about it before doing something like this. Way to go, overshadowing the Tom cruise book by Andrew morton.
    What a bunch of idiots.

    Scientology should be stopped, or at least fully exposed. Salvation shouldn't be something that can be bought with something as trivial as money. When you die, your money becomes totally worthless to you, so what's the point of buying your way into heaven? How do you benefit from that when other religions offer the exact same thing without any sort of up-front costs? Scientology is nothing more than a profit seeking cult that has gotten way too far into the mainstream's attention. In it's case, Scientology only gains power from more people knowing about its existence, so it should be stopped before more people are manipulated out of their time, life, and money! It's more than just Tom Cruise being downright strange, it's about standing up to something that hurts people when it claims to be doing them good.

    Wow, I'm Catholic and nobody gets all crazy about us like this!!!! But my point is that Scientology is a scary, weird and yes dangerous CULT (not a religion) Celebs love is because it feeds their giant egos of being demi-gods (hell, gods - not even demi-gods) I'm glad there is a group calling the kettle black and even in a silly "we are legion" sort of way.

    Sounds like some disenchanted former Scientologists — meaning those who didn't have the big bucks to take all their programs so were subsequently shunned by the Xenus. It sounds to me like they will use the same tactics against Scientology that Scientology uses against anyone who dares to question it. Good for them!

I mean, can you not just picture a group of them huddled in their ultra secret lair plotting their intricate revenge on the world that has shunned them so? This shit is hilarious. Thanks Perez

    Re: ash

    for everyone's edification, "legion" comes from the latin word "legionem" which means "body of soldiers", and is derived from "legere", which means "to gather". in common usage, outside of its military defintion, it means "an indeterminate number". whether or not the greek translators of the bible meant to imply that the demon actually called himself "Legion", it's far more plausible to read it as the demon say "i am one of many".

    so in anonymous saying "we are legion", they are not saying "we are a demon". they are saying "we are many". klar?

    /b/ after hal turner and fox news now has an unsurpassed reputation on the interwebs. All men cower and speak our name in fear, averting their eyes least they be blinded by our glory. We have the power to get pedophiles v&. We have the power to ruin dogsuckchan. We even have the power to bring down the Gamestop phone network for several days and cause them a significant loss of revenue.

    We are /b/. We are Anonymous. We are the unstoppable rise of a new internet empire. For lulz, for justice, for freedom, we have trampled roughshod over every enemy in the past.
    And now, at long last, we have a cause that has given us the support of the people. Everywhere on news sites I see the same thing - people suddenly finding the power to speak out against these scum with their comments in our support.

    Here we are /b/. The world has seen the french revolution. It's seen the Communist revolution. Hell, it's even seen the American Revolution. Now, just when we thought all revolutions were dead, just when we thought our generation was worthless and weak, we have finally found our cause. Fight on.
