With recent happenings in the news revolving around Scientology (leaked vids, new enemy) I’ve found myself a bit interested in it. Before approximately a week ago, I knew nothing about this organization. Now, though, I’ve come to know it as a fake “religion” conceived by sci-fi writer L. Ron. Hubbard to make a buck. He basically wrote a great many books and spoke a great many lectures where he outlined his mad ideas about where we come from and how things work.
Now I understand weak-minded people with personal issues who need something like this to turn to… and… after a bit more coercing, you might have me making sense of how popular, insane celebrities with too much cash might find themselves belonging to this group. But anyone with common sense who has done any amount of research on the organization could tell you that it’s a complete fraud. I am fascinated by the numbers who call themselves supporters.
I hereby dub the ideas and writings of “Scientology” as an Encyclopedia of Nonsense.
And as part of this, I’ve created a new slang use of the word “scientology”: Use it as a synonym for nonsense.
Example: The guy went and upped the price on us! What a bunch of fucking scientology!
And please vote up my new word on urbandictionary.com. It’s #49 at the very bottom.
Update: It moves. Currently, I’m at the bottom of page 6.
