Christianity is the same as Scientology
#37
RE: Christianity is the same as Scientology
I think it requires the same amount of faith to believe in the mythology of both religions.

The higher ups in scientology seem to be much more obsessed with stealing your entire life away from you, however. They seem to be this way across the board, whereas only some extremist Christian groups operate in this manner.

So, same in theory, yea, but not the same in practice, so to speak.
“Love is the only bow on Life’s dark cloud. It is the morning and the evening star. It shines upon the babe, and sheds its radiance on the quiet tomb. It is the mother of art, inspirer of poet, patriot and philosopher.

It is the air and light of every heart – builder of every home, kindler of every fire on every hearth. It was the first to dream of immortality. It fills the world with melody – for music is the voice of love.

Love is the magician, the enchanter, that changes worthless things to Joy, and makes royal kings and queens of common clay. It is the perfume of that wondrous flower, the heart, and without that sacred passion, that divine swoon, we are less than beasts; but with it, earth is heaven, and we are gods.” - Robert. G. Ingersoll
