Regarding religion, I have always upheld the principle of respecting personal beliefs. But after watching the documentary, I really whizzed past in my heart. It's called Scientology at any rate. I thought it would fit a little bit of scientific logic. But isn't this the trick of Yang Yongxin and Wang Lin? Tom Cruise was able to abandon Nicole Kidman because of this teaching, and he didn't see Suri for five years. This precipice is an uncultured loss.
Hubbard, a third-rate science fiction novelist who runs a train full of mouths, has instilled a religious system in his novels in order to make money. It is claimed that as long as people repeatedly observe the specific process of trauma in the past, the current impact of this event will disappear. To put it simply, if a person has a car accident, the accident will definitely affect him. Then let this person describe the accident again and let it go completely. Are you familiar with this theory? Did he pay Floyd Bandura royalties? It turns out, by coincidence, this book is a big seller in the United States.
So Hubbard opened a hearing. In a confined room, a believer and an analyst, a telekinesis instrument and a video recorder. The whole process is similar to hypnosis, which Hubbard calls purification. The psychic meter uses electric current to test whether there are secrets in the believers' hearts. The believers will confide all their inner privacy until they are finished. Purification is an escalation process, and each stage is expensive. Not only that, but believers have to sign a contract with the church to exempt the church from legal liabilities. As more and more people deceived, Hubbard eventually deceived himself, and he really regarded himself as the savior.
The believer is simply a typical example of selling himself and helping to count the money. Not only that, Scientology has also infiltrated important government departments, eavesdropping and stealing information, intimidating and threatening various opposition forces. Under the leadership of the second-generation leader, the power of the church began to develop into celebrities, and Tom Cruise became the best spokesperson for the church. In order to satisfy him, the wind and the wind and the rain and the rain are required in the church. All Nicole and Katie who might get him out of the church were cleaned up by the church. If these wives are not good enough, the church will help choose the concubine. It's really awesome.
For influential big names like Tom Cruise, Scientology spoils and monitors. For some small coffees, the church spares no effort to extract surplus value to serve them. Once they could not meet the church's needs, they were driven to do physical tasks such as cleaning the toilet. Want to leave the church? That is impossible. The church has already checked you and the people around you clearly, and if you want to withdraw, it will expose your privacy and harass your family.
In my opinion, such a cult is the carnival of a group of people suffering from Stockholm syndrome. As mentioned in a paragraph in the film, with the escalation of purification, some believers have the opportunity to see the so-called secret of the church, the birth of the universe, which is full of all kinds of absurd statements about the development of aliens and humans. Although the believers after seeing the content will feel that the content WTF, but thinking about their previous efforts in the church, they feel that these are not important. Once a person is Shi Lezhi, he is likely to choose to deceive himself and others to continue to lose his mind.
