The universal problem with what Scientologists are doing to each other is their intention and system to eliminate or suppress people’s consciences, and their relative success in doing so. This generates a condition of functional psychopathy in which lying is easy and hurting others can be a point of honor.
The US Government’s decision to leave the determination of whether an organization is “religious” to the organization itself, and, on the basis of that self-religionizing determination, to afford it all the benefits and protections afforded any other “religions,” is a stupidity that cannot help but increase “religious intolerance.” The US exacerbates this foolishness with a ridiculous policy of condemning, threatening and sanctioning sovereign nations that don’t fall in step with the US’s intolerance-increasing position and actions.
