I thought that in America Scientology was a religion, while here in Europe it is a cult.
I trully fear Scientology, not because of the "true meaning" behind the "religion", but because of the people who lead it. Everybody who joins it and breaks their connections with their family. I saw a documentary about it, by the BBC. The cult followed the reporters, and when they interviewed someone who left the cult, they came to the reporters and told all the deepest secrets of the one who left, because every member of the cult tells their secrets so they could achieve a form of serenity or something like that. They force everybody to call them a religion and not a cult, even though they have all the aspects of a cult. They say you don't have the right to call them a cult, but then again what right do they have to call themselfs a religion? They sue everybody who is against them and even the reporters were in trouble becoming sued.
It is a cult to be feared, that's for sure, and the worst thing is that they do almost everything legally. They can destroy your life and no one could do anything about it.
