1.0 out of 5 stars
If you're Christian and worried about becoming a Scientologist then read this..., June 24, 2005
This review is from: Scientology: What do they believe? (Digital)
...otherwise it's a complete waste of time and money (and yes, three dollars is far more than what this PDF is worth). Val Waldeck accomplishes nothing in this "publication" other than to state very clearly that Jesus Christ is the only one you should believe in. Make no mistake, the foreword contains the following: "This ebook was written with the earnest desire that it will assist Christians to obey the instruction of 1 John 4:1".
As a non-Scientologist curious what all this "Church of Scientology" talk is about I was grossly disappointed with this pamphlet. I use the term pamphlet as this text actually contains only 12 pages (not 40 - and in large font print no less!) dealing with the background/history/rumors of The Church of Scientology and L. Ron Hubbard. The remainder is pro-Christianity rhetoric with heavy biblical referencing and two pages with some vague bullet point style tidbits about what cults are and do. Save yourself as you will learn nothing here about the Church of Scientology that you wouldn't already know from word-of-mouth alone.

Serious Enlightenment, June 27, 2005
This review is from: Scientology: What do they believe? (Digital)
This review was fascinating! Nothing less. Most never knew L. Ron Hubbard was a two-bit criminal and fabricated many aspects of his life. How could ANYONE follow someone with a background like this? After reading Val Waldeck's information on this cult (Scientology: What do they believe?, and I assure you, it's a cult, I was just completely amazed. Some have written reviews that have been harsh and it's apparant and obvious that they are current members of the very organization she's exposed! Even the German government (who's fairly liberal) has tried to rid thier country of this mind-altering, brain-washing organization. It's a criminal cult with a criminally found leader and foundation. The guy even wrote bad checks and fabricated his 'military' service. Not the kind of person you'd want 'enlightenment' from. I HIGHLY recommend any of Val Waldeck writings, although I have no affiliation with the organization or such, it was an honest and penetrating to the bone writing and had me wanting more!!
