Scientology IS a global scam. The creator, L. Ron Hubbard, said so himself. Jesus Christ never called Christianity a scam. Muhammed never called Islam a scam. Looking at the whole picture, Scientology is obviously a scam.

They've made fun of other religions, but I dunno whether they've explicitly called them untrue.

Scientology is untrue. I fact checked the episode of SP, and nothing about Scientology seems off base at all. On some level, one could suggest that all organized religion is a global scam, but Scientology is so blatent in it's scamming people that it's impossible to ignore. My theton level is 0.
