Scientology Advertising on YouTube
The image above has been transformed for the purposes of satire (I put the text version of air quotes in all by myself).
Scientology is paying for advertisement on YouTube. YouTube is owned by Google. Google has been criticized in the past for its cooperation with China. Tom Cruise pumped money into China while making Mission Impossible III. Supposedly scientology is committed to making human rights a reality around the World. That must be why their most famous member injected $10 million into a totalitarian country that is the most famous human rights abuser.

This is part of what I say on my Yahoo Group ‘Interrupting people is perfectly normal in common day life. It’s normal to interrupt people while they’re working, talking or during their leisure time. Finally all this just represents part of the economic process. All this assuming that you’re courteous and reasonable on the phone/Net/Face to Face. If one of the 2 or more people can’t handle all this, she or he must have a problem. So why shouldn’t this apply to Scientology? If they want to communicate their ideas, why not. All people are free to choose or should we be living in a society which looks after us, surveys what we do and assumes that individuals cannot look after themselves ? Or am I being unfair?

I am not making an argument against freedom of speech or freedom of association or freedom of religion. I am arguing that scientology is a negative entity that does harm and that Google should refuse to provide advertising space on YouTube or elsewhere.
