Being magnanimous though is a trait, and very singular, so much so as to be a riddle when it comes to organised religion, or just about any formal organisation for that matter. AKA you just bend things a bit when it suits…the very things that you should not do.
Not quite there with your summation, maybe it's the context, generalize about religion, then you could say there is recognizable evil within most of them.

Feel free elaborate on your answers.
The Purification Rundown and the Survival Rundown are both part of Scientology and NOT dianetics.

Over 99% of Scientology is available to the general public and the remaining fraction of a percent is esoteric only because knowledge has to be taught in a logical order. As for a price list? I'm honestly not sure, I learn about prices through the church I attend. Try here perhaps. www.scientology.org... Scientology charges money because that's what it takes to thrive and expand as an organisation in today's modern world. Money.

My problem is the secrecy first, since secrets always mean things are hidden. What is being hidden? Why does it need hidden?
I think they are afraid of being laughed at.

The best expose film about what goes on there is a movie titled Going Clear.
Religions aren't as evil as some countries, Scientology isn't bombing countries back to the stone age. The only control man made religion has over people is the power their members give to it.
All they have to do is walk away…
Going Clear
Yep...they just need to walk away! And get harassed non stop by the scum over at scientology. Are they evil? Yep.
