ANSWERS TO QUESTIONS MOST COMMONLY ASKED BY MEDIA How does Scientology view anti-religious groups and deprogrammers?
So-called deprogrammers are money-motivated criminals who kidnap and harass for profit. Their methods include imprisonment, food and sleep deprivation and various forms of personal assault, including assault and battery and even rape. Deprogrammers in many countries have been jailed for their involvement in such violent and illegal practices. Such activities are against virtually every principle held by Scientologists.
