As conservatives we are painfully aware of how the mainstream media twists and smears. So, the post by maggieo particularly concerns me as she is forwarding the MSM line (backed by the psych/pharma industry)about Scientology. The Church of Scientology isn't "pretending" anything;it is exactly what it says it is. And to also manufacture a connection between Scientology and Jim Jones is the height of irresponsibility. Due diligence is required here. The information on what Scientology is and what it does is answered in full on their website: www.scientology.org The Church bears no resemblance to what it has been portrayed as by the special interests pushing psych drugs on our society. We should support those who do good and damn those who live in the "universe of lies and spin". (Rush's quote) Find out for yourself. I hate to digress but can’t let this go unanswered.

However, I think a better word for it is a cult, just like the Jim Jones cult, and for that matter just like Scientology which pretends to be a religion. I am still inclined to argue the toss because there is suppression within Islam - Christians are not free to talk about their religion in any country where Islam is the official "faith".... However, that gets away from the excellent points that you have made. Just for the record, there has been a little bit of an upheaval here in Australia, and you might call it a last ditch effort to prevent the passing of our version of your crap and trade. We call it the ETS. As a result of the phones melting last Thursday (I think that was when it started), we have a new Opposition leader, which means there has been a shift away from co-operating with our narcissistic Prime Minister KRUDD. Hopefully this means that KRUDD will go to Hopenhagen with an empty promise... I was going to argue the toss on your point about not calling this scam a religion.

I had always understood that it was biased -- sins of omission and commission were amply evidenced. But over the course of 2007/2008, it became an overwhelmingly condescending bias. Not only was I to be told only what they wanted me to hear, but they didn't even have to try to hide this -- they, after all, were the local "paper of record". I got yet another begging, "come back to the fold" phone call this week. As usual, I asked if they'd changed editorial staff and abruptly terminated the call when they said that they hadn't. I might pay for journalism, I won't pay for shills -- and this doesn't change if either one dresses themselves up in newsprint.
