The opinion I removed
:::We heard the same about the [[Theory of evolution]] article. Let the readers decide if Scientology deserves ample criticism from the sources cited. [[User:Conservative|Conservative]] 21:20, 26 April 2007 (EDT)

:::: I was of the impression that our motivations were not reader's estimations of how much criticsm an article should contain. Is that in the commandments somewhere? I would like to follow your reasoning. Do you mean by observing the page hits of the [[Scientology]] article? I don't understand what you mean by "let the readers decide if Scientology deserves criticism". I don't understand how even a page counter would tell us what a reader's attitude is.

== The opinion I removed ==
I removed this from the article. It is opinion, unattributable opinion.<blockquote>Many may also be troubled with the ideas, not officially stated, but widely published,that a deity other than God ([[Xenu]]) may have influenced the presence of souls on earth.[http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~dst/Fishman/Xenu/xenu.html]Also, the Scientologist concept of soul ("thetan") is very different from the Christian understanding. The thetan can inhabit many bodies and lifetimes, and is not a gift of God, that ultimately returns to God.</blockquote> discussion welcome, but that is simply opinion. The link points to a page of nothing but opinion. [[User:Terryeo|Terryeo]] 22:23, 26 April 2007 (EDT)
