Ep 880 | The Truth About Scientology | Guests: Jeremiah Roberts & Andrew Soncrant of 'Cultish' (Part One)

Today we’re joined again by Jeremiah Roberts and Andrew Soncrant, hosts of the podcast "Cultish," this time to discuss Scientology. Because Scientology is in the news so often, we start off with an explanation of what it actually is and how it gets people hooked. We discuss how similar its structure sounds to multi-level marketing and the prosperity gospel and what was going on in America that caused this to boom in the '50s, '60s and '70s. We talk about the wild "intergalactic" lore of Scientology and how, similar to other cults, what actually goes on behind the scenes is never communicated to a potential convert. At Scientology's core, the problems it is trying to solve are the same ones we all try to solve, but the solutions are all man-made and the opposite of freedom. We offer a theological perspective and explain why Scientology and Christianity are so opposed to each other. Stay tuned for part two tomorrow!
