Funny. News.com. Google forced to remove anti-Scientology links. I don’t agreee with the Germans on many things (although I lived there). But, I agree with the Germans when it comes to Scientology (by saying this I am being listed in some Scientology database in the sky). Germany treats Scientology like a cult and they outlaw it under the same laws that prevent distribution of Neo-Nazi propoganda. Scientology is a cult of the worst sort: one that can afford to hire lawyers, manage propoganda, intimidate opposition, and train absolute leaders. They work within the system. Very Nazi. Avoid it. Outlaw it. Denounce it. Besides, anyone who starts a cult based on the thinking of a writer of bad science fiction, should get a life. [John Robb’s Radio Weblog]
Good take on Zero Tolerance. Zero Tolerance and the War on Terrorism. Zero tolerance was the fad of the 90s to clean up our schools and restore discipline. Its no-nonsense approach to dealing with policy violators was supposed to make students think twice about breaking any rule. Not only has it been a failure, it has been disastrous. Indeed, zero-tolerance policies have not made our schools safe or whatever other sound-byte rhetoric was espoused in its favor. It has instead created a rash of neverending media spectacles where innocents are unjustly punished for minor infractions. [kuro5hin.org]
