Now, HAI is definitely not a cover for a sketchy secret organization infiltrating world governments to make everyone buy bricks, but if we were, we would rely on quality topic suggestions to fund our operations. That's because good topics make good videos, and that's why we ask you, the viewer, to suggest your ideas to our suggestion bin: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfUdlvw6YgU44J8AnM2U_ZvRMyvh_CUM51LYSqF5nYJB9d1-w/viewform?usp=sf_link If we use your topic, we'll even send you a free HAI t-shirt.

I was raised by Scientologist parents, but I have since renounced the entire religion. The informational content of this video is very accurate, but the supplemental B-Shots are not, they're just way too 007 style. The language and vocabulary are obviously very different from how the Church of Scientology would describe itself, but every description of Scientology's actions (when taken literally) are truthful in their essence. While this video if stylized in the way RU-vid prefers, it's core information is honest and truthful. I know it may be difficult to accept, but the vast majority of the of the world's population considers Scientology to be one of the more dangerous religions in the world. If you are considering leaving the religion of Scientology, I highly recommend it, as a survivor. My life has never been so understandable since I denounced Scientology, albeit, with some dark times.

How does Islam still exist after slaughtering millions of innocents, setting of bombs in countries around the world, performing Jihads, and generally oppressing people? How does Christianity still exist after the crusades, judging and general oppression, and torturing people they don't agree with? It still exists because it's a religion like any other. Just as shitty and brainwashed, with just as many flaws. You'd be mistaken believing Scientology is the only religion to have infiltrated anything... We've had centuries of all other religions, particularly Christians and Muslims doing exactly the same thing, just with less advanced technology to detect.

And his most famous quote, apparently had several semi-famous wittnesses (who were all part of a writting circle who would drink and play poker at some bar) "the easiest way to earn money is to start your own religion" Ive probably messed those quotes up a little but thats the jist.

And honestly... Auto Generated is useless more often than not even if the speaker's don't have accents. And yet... yours is the first video I've watched that was uploaded in the last day that has actual captions. And of those many I've watched (ya know; nothing much else to do rn) in the last day less than a third of them even had Autogenerated captions 9.9 So again; thank you for doing that small effort (or cost) to have captions on your videos.

@santibanks
@santibanks 4 года назад
@@georgewilson7432 Chick is very deep in Scientology (I guess along with his wife Gayle Moran, known from Mahavishnu Orchestra). His band Return to Forever and it's song titles are all scientology references. The reason the classic quartet spit up was because Al and Lenny had enough of Scientology. Chick thanks Hubbard in every liner note of his albums. He actually made an album with Hubbard (though I never heard it) and called him "A true Renaissance man". Stanley Clarke left the church but is still a bit positive about it. Chick also created this studio called Mad Hatter Studio's in LA somewhere in the 80ies (a reference to Alice in Wonderland). He sold it to the Scientology church but sometimes still records there I think. There is actually a Chick Corea documentary on scientology tv. As far as I know, Chick is still active in scientology and feels like it helped him connect to his audience and finds his style and intrinsic motivation to play. To be fair, while my personal opinion is that it's all bogus and more like a pyramid scheme, I am convinced that it did inspire Chick to do the music he did.

It comes for free with a Curiosity Stream membership when you sign up at CuriosityStream.com/hai and use code "hai" at check out. 31 day free trial, then $12 for a year or $3 for a month. You get an email after you sign up to set up your Nebula account. You can also sign up for Nebula without a Curiosity Stream membership at watchnebula.com for $30/year, although I don't know why anyone would do that instead of through CuriosityStream. CuriosityStream is a streaming service for documentaries, and has thousands of them.
