Summary

SUPPORT OUR SPONSOR: http://www.naturebox.com/thinkingatheist

Created by the late science fiction writer L. Ron Hubbard, Scientology is a religion/cult which teaches that humans are actually immortal beings who, having forgotten their true nature, require intensive (and expensive) "auditing" techniques to rediscover their true, immortal selves.

Reports and allegations have been made, by journalists, courts, and governmental bodies of several countries, that the Church of Scientology is an unscrupulous commercial enterprise that harasses its critics and brutally exploits its members.

In this compelling episode, we explore Scientology's practices, and we hear from those who escaped its shadow.
