Should some religions, like Scientology, be legally banned?

[robocop666]

Israel and Saudi Arabia have laws against foreign religions. Should certain religions be banned. Scientology teach dangerous things.

[Kaneki05]

Religion should at least be banned for having any say over law, ya know separation of church and state. I'd be happy with all organized religion banned too.
As for personal thought to god existing that should never be banned, people can believe in a god if they want just like how I can say it's bull.

I didn't even know Israel was strict on foreign religions. Really? Wow - I wonder how the Roman Catholic Church feels about that if that's true, if true.

[Opinion Owner]

Let alone the church of England - shrug

[RandomGirl42]

Ty for inviting me to share but I don't believe banning is the answer to anything. I'm not sure what the answer is but it's like when they had prohibition and that didn't really work either and I'm glad of that 'cuz we make some good wine.

[Agape93]

Nope but their members should be banned from public office

[DryGermanGuy]

Scientology is not a religion and never will be. It's a dangerous cult and money-grabbing scam. And it should be banned like all these useless and dangerous cults and sects.

[robocop666]

the danger is that people are stupid enough to join

[DryGermanGuy]

Very true. It's mind-boggling, but I guess there are fragile and labile people around.

[Lliam]

No. But churches and church leaders should be subjected to investigation whenever fraud or sexual abuse is suspected.

the church in Nazi germany helped the nazis flee to argentina

[Cyfris]

Hell no.. Everyone should have the right to their own beliefs. What should be banned is when those beliefs impact others who have different beliefs.. Just as a muslim should have the right to pray to their god i should have the right to not give a fuck about it and not have it forced upon me in any aspect of my life.

[NaultD]

Out right creates a can of worms more trouble then it's worth. It's better to outlaw practices and make a point to ignore the religion even exist when creating said law.

[robocop666]

well saudi arabia and israel forbid religions

[NaultD]

Most of the world dosen't have freedom of speech or religion.

[exitseven]

The Constitution guarantees freedom of worship. Either it is or it isn't.

[robocop666]

not everyone here is from america

[exitseven]

true but they still have certain freedoms

[nolabels]

We'd have to ask ourselves where something like that might end.

It might have disastrous results.

[GrammariklyIncorrekt]

I think any cult-type or forceful ideology should be banned

[loveslongnails]

"Scientology teach dangerous things."
So does Christianity.
So does Islam
So does Judaism

Try telling the believers that they do and watch what you get. LOL

[OneViewpoint]

Not some religions. All religions should be banned.

[Sal_Monella]

We have a United States Constitution. Amendment One tells you what you need to know. Besides that what the Scientology teach that is dangerous?

[888theGreat]

no, Constitutionally protected. However, any church , any faith should lose tax status if found out they are not helping people in need

[beefcakebradybatson]

So let's have a theology such as those two backwards nations. NOT FOR OL' BOY !!!

[KimmySchmit]

No. Where would it end.

[KostasKouvalis]

Honestly, YES. Screw the first ammendment

[KostasKouvalis]

Honestly, as long as it's not MINE that's getting banned, I couldn't care less
