Religion wars
[source]
A religious battle broke out in Sorens, and the two combatants are the Church of Enturbulation and a group from Scientology.
As someone said, those who do not remember history are doomed to repeat its errors.
I always hated religious fanatism, and the outcomes of religious beliefs. Here’s one intimorating consequence of these kind of things.
The fact is simple:
The Church of Enturbulation on Second Life has a facility that educates people about the methods and problems with the Church of Scientology. Next door was the home of a Scientology group called “Scientology, Hey its not so bad!.”
Charity Stohr, the founder of the Church of Enturbulation group is a long time activist against the Church of Scientology and wanted to bring her work with her. Lalinda Lovell is the founder of the “Scientology, hey its not so bad!” group.
The groups build included pictures of the Scientology logo with phrases such as “Learn while u learn ™” and “Science + Technology = Scientology ™”.
Sorens is a sim owned by BNT Holdings group. After consultation with IntLibber Brautigan and BNT Holdings President Kaddan Yue, it was determined that having the name “Church of Enturbulation” in the “Scientology, hey its not so bad!” group’s land description, using the Scientology star cross symbol and using the phrases mentioned above was copyright infringement. As BNT representatives said, this is copyright infringement, against the sim covenant and the ToS. Therefore, BNT Holdings took back the land and deleted all the items there with no refunds.
You see? Instead of promoting free speech, or to tolerate each other, those guys are fighting for the “soul” of avatars.
Avoid that. Please. Let’s make Second Life a better world than the first one.
