| Sqrl said: What is morally or legally objectionable about protesting an orgnisation for its illegal and morally questionable practises? Sorry but given that Anonymous has stated they do not wish to prevent people from believing what they want only to prevent CoS from extorting, murdering, and otherwise abusing its members I don't see how anything they've done is inappropriate, morally or legally. Perhaps you know of something I don't?

To say that scientology is an evil religion or that the Church of Scientology is an inherently illegal institution is ridiculously one-sided. I'm a Catholic/Christian, and I'm disgusted when I hear about other Catholics/Christians being extorted or harrassed by individuals or break-off sects. I'm disgusted when I hear about Catholic priests molesting young boys and girls. But I would be mortified if someone that didn't wish to be identified and forced to back up their allegations labelled my religion evil and actively demonstrated against it based on these isolated incidents.
These protests have received so much publicity that it would be impossible for the CoS to harrass it's members were they to unveil their identities. Not that I actually believe that would happen anyway. The accused should always have a right to face their accuser. Yes, I agree that the religion is complete crap, but people are perfectly permitted to believe it free from persecution. If people wish to be seperated from non-believers, that is their choice. The biggest problem with all the conspiracy theories encircling Scientology is that at the end of the day it assumes such monumental stupidity on behalf of all those who were supposedely "duped and extorted."
Ssj12. If you truly believe what you are saying is correct and morally sound, don't wear a mask to your next rally. Be held accountable for your opinions.
