What would you rather happened to Co$?

I think it's fair to say that a lot is happening right now. Every day more and more voices speak up against the violations of human rights commited by Scientology.

With the upcoming Ides of March and Operation Reconnect, it's safe to think that the force opposing Scientology will only get stronger and stronger.

The ideal outcome would be that DM was arrested and tried, along with others from the management. In the event that CoS in its present form collapses in on itself (which I think at this point is inevitable), maybe someone takes the helm and reforms it. Or it shatters and different people decide to take it into different directions of interest.

In the event of a collapse, what would you have happen to Scientology? What are your thoughts?

EDIT: Oh well, maybe not the best formulated poll, but anyway, you (hopefully) get the idea.

And that's my thought on the subject!

Ideally, I'd like to see it all shrivel to ash, but I know that's not likely to happen. I think in the end, it'll be reformed completely, and branched into much smaller denominations.

You know, it's funny, a lot of people aren't aware that Martin Luther was a major antisemitic that wrote rants against the Jews that are on par with Hitler's rants. Even the Lutheran church more or less said "Yeah... we know better than to take all of Luther's writings into practice."

My feeling on this is that I don't have much of a problem with "Free Zoners", which as far as I know is Scientology minus all the social problems that goes with that organization. I'd like to see CoS go down, but I'm still very much for religious freedom and having the right to believe whatever you want, even if that means that you're a result of an alien galactic genocide. *shrug*

Personally, I do think there is a lot of positive and useful technology and philosophy in Sceintology that I still use to this day, but it's extremely basic like organization skills, and different mottos and stuff. I mean, let's face it, there's no way it would still be in existence today if there was NOTHING good about it at all. To me, however none of these things would constitute a religion. I am not for organized religion at all. Therefore, I think it would be best if the books of LRH were perserved and made available to everyone to use at their own will, but the Church and it's structure and management should be disbanded.
