http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mjlo4u_8g60&mode=related&search= This is the moment John Sweeney the reporter loses it after being followed where ever he went looking into the scientologists.
It was ace For anyone with Virgin TV it's on the ONDEMAND. They were crackers, acting very cultish when they were denying not been a cult.
Im gonna watch that now. Scientologists are a joke. Us Davidians know the true way. Let me do your bidding Lord.
I would recommend watching the whole thing if you can. Very dodgy cult the scientologists. Sweeney was clearly worn down by their brow beating, bullying and harassment. The final straw came when he felt they were trying to brainwash him and he just flipped. Fantastic TV... if it was me I would have laid the scientologist ****** out... and I'm a pacifist.
Alternative view.. Thought it was great the way they gave a "journalist" a taste of what it is like to be hounded. Scientologists may be dodgy but there is no way that you could tell from that programme. Biased reporting and deceitful editing of the highest order.
RE: Alternative view.. What do they have to hide? They seem to spend a lot of time and money trying to discredit anyone who disagrees with them in the slightest. It appeared that everytime sweeney had an interview arranged that Tommy would turn up and just talk over him. L.Ron Hubbard knew when he created scientology that the rich need something to balance their guilt about being wealthy... and why not make shedloads of dosh off them for the priviledge. Oh dear... is that a black car just pulled up outside.
RE: Alternative view.. Don't be fooled by what you see in a half hour programme. Do you think that we saw all the interviews that Sweeney carried out with the Scientologists? ... or just those when"Tommy" turned up? I wasn't even convinced by Sweeney following that car that was supposed to be Scientologists - it was too easy to edit the thing to make it look just like he wanted. Also, how many times do you think a BBC camera team want to have an "editorial" meeting whilst filming at a location? Total set-up in the loo and a bit pathetic as well - they obviously waited until "Tommy" was outside. Didn't see the bit where Sweeney posed as a Travolta fan to shout "what's it like to be a member of a cult" over and over at him during a film premier either (cos Travolta didn't respond). These programmes are nothing more than bilge. P.S. L Ron Hubbard was a certifiable loony. However, anyone who follows this religion or cult is no different in my mind to folk who follow any such stuff e.g Catholics, Protestants, Baptists, Muslims, Hindus etc. etc..
Don't you think football's like a cult? You get drawn into supporting ateam and follow them blindly - even though they're crap most of the time - and dismiss all others! Down with devil!( Brian Laws as he is known to others!) </p>
you may as well be one i have a friend who's sister has been brainwashed by that set of *******. I watched that program with an open mind bu how you can defend that is beyond me. That guy wanted a slap. Talk about aggressive in your face. I thought the reporter did really well not to drop him where he stood.
I think you missed the point No way am I defending the Scietologists. It's just great to see the prats that parade themselves as investigative journalists getting a piece of their own medicine. Panorama used to be a programme famed for editorial fairness. This was an "authored" piece by Sweeney. Sort of thing that should be on the TV equivalent of the Sun.
Jenna Elfman off Dharma and Gregg is a Scientologist. This is one of her quotes- " Aids is a state of mind,not a disease".
here you go <font size="2">"During the last holiday season, the Dharma & Greg star refused to take part in a celebrity autograph auction for an organization that raised money for the care of children with HIV. As a brainwashed devotee of The Church of Scientology, the bah-humbugy Elfman stated that she couldn't support any organization that raised money for AIDS research or relief because 'AIDS is a state of mind, not a disease.'</font></p> CHILDREN WITH AIDS ! YOU BLEEDING COWBAG !</p>
