On the askme.com board on Scientology, for a while there were cult sponsored experts who would post vicious attacks in response to questions and otherwise make fools of themselves and look like deranged cultists. Of all these five star experts, all of them are either critics, ex-Scientologists or Free Zoners. The lowest-rated expert is an insane cultist named support_sage Now there are 26 experts, and here are the five star ones.

(Experts are rated at between one to five stars by readers.)

I have studied the Church of Scientology (CoS) as a political opponent for over five years. I have read much of the so-called scriptures (or "Source") written by L. Ron Hubbard in the process. My opposition to Scientology has made me an enemy, in their eyes. I have been threatened with lawsuits on several occasions for my critical speech, and one Scientologist tried to get me fired from my job.

formerscientologist - 157 Answered My Scientology Expertise:

I was born into a Scientology family and raised with Scientology techniques. I decided that Scientology was my religion at age 10. However, I've had too many disagreements with L. Ron Hubbard and the church, so I'm not a Scientologist anymore.

Phobos1 - 65 Answered My Scientology Expertise:

While I have never been a Scientologist, I have been reading about Scientology and Dianetics quite avidly for nearly seven years now, and I find I know the answers to more of the questions here than I expected to. Maybe I can answer yours.

lutefisk - 65 Answered My Scientology Expertise:

Having conducted a great deal of independent quasi-academic research into Scientology (although I've never been a Scientologist myself), I've gained a detailed understanding of the movement's history and practices.

FreeZone - 62 Answered My Scientology Expertise:

bunnyann - 40 Answered My Scientology Expertise:

Five years ago I was lead into the world of scientology, which were quite eye opening. This is not a religion; religions do not have FSMs and pay them a commission. I soon learned one was not to ask questions, but I did. After much soul searching, I became an active critic. I'll be happy to respond to your questions.

HBeer - 35 Answered My Scientology Expertise:

I was a Scientologists for 19 years, some of them as a staff member. The glaring misinterpretations and misapplications of Hubbard's theory by the current management motivated me to seek alternatives.

-- The lowest rated expert, with only two stars, is insane cultist support_sage, who mainly responds to questions by viciously attacking everyone who asks them. The two stars is just mercy I guess, because he's utterly pathetic.

support_sage - Answered: 69 of 71 My Scientology Expertise:

I have been in Scientology for over 35 years...I practice Dianetic Counselling publicly and also am a business and computer support specialist.In all my time in business I have never seen anything so easy to use, so effective and that works so well. It is simple and honest..no matter what others tell you, in the battle to control your mind and destiny. I answer only honest questions on this site. Due to the use of it by people who are mostly excommunicated from the church.
Most common answer?

sp's dont deserve answers"

My. . .how "expert" of him. And he wonders why readers despise him and give him the lowest rating of all experts. Even the other insane cultists usually get three stars.
