23. Who are the skeptics? Why do they spend so much time here if they don't even believe in Scientology?
Answer by: Rachel Meredith Kadel <rkadel@husc.harvard.edu>
The skeptics are a very varied group. Some are on
alt.religion.scientology because they are concerned about the threats to
freedom of speech posed by the Church of Scientology's recent actions.
Some are on alt.religion.scientology because they are simply curious about
just what Scientology is, and why there's such a fuss about it. Some are
on a.r.s. for laughs -- certain posters can get quite ridiculous at times.
Some skeptics came to alt.religion.scientology in concern because someone
they know has joined. Some skeptics have had bad experiences with
scientology, and want to share information about them so that others don't
have the same bad experiences. Some people came to
alt.religion.scientology for one or another of the above reasons, and
stick around because they've become friends with, and concerned about,
some of the other posters. In short, the skeptics are as mixed a group of
people as you're likely to come across.
