Church Of Scientology Calls New HBO Documentary 'Bigoted'

The Church of Scientology is famous for its efforts to silence its critics, but it has not blocked an upcoming HBO film that turns a harsh light on the powerful organization and its leadership.

Going Clear: Scientology and the Prison of Belief, directed by Academy Award-winning documentarian Alex Gibney, will debut Sunday over the vigorous objection of Scientology officials.

For the film, based on a book by Lawrence Wright, Gibney dug up extensive archival footage of Scientology's founder, the late science-fiction writer L. Ron Hubbard. Gibney explores Hubbard's somewhat bizarre beliefs, including his theory that humans are immortal spiritual beings called "thetans" that can roam the universe and that become incarnated in different bodies over billions of years.

    'L ron's somewhat bizarre beliefs' , A hack science fiction writer starts a religion on a bet. Invents Holy Appliance and bilks thousands of people out of millions of dollars. Inspires one of the worst movies of all time. Attracts douchebags and movie stars but I repeat myself there. How could anyone take this seriously? Explain yourselves!
