# Scientologists
I got caught by the Scientology church on Tottenham Court Road (London) today… free stress test indicated that I wasn’t overly stressed, then they offered a free personality test “The Oxford Personality Test”, so I completed that and then they wanted me to do a “Mental Ability Test” which I ended up walking out of without any of the staff knowing.
So my opinion of Scientology is: don’t bother, unless of course you have LOADS of money and LOADS of time on your hands. All the respect to those who do get a spiritual kick from it, but I personally think those tests were annoying (especially the Mental Ability Test which several of the questions had incorrect choices for answers, and the answer paper went down numbers and not up - which was really odd), and it is a nice idea that we can ‘train’ ourselves up to be better people but I am not sure that its possible, and I don’t think that Scientology can provide that (but hey, I could be wrong).
The reason I said yes to the tests, is because I wanted to know a little bit more about this religion. I didn’t get the chance to ask any questions, shame, but they aren’t going to get any of my money… even though they subliminally play “….Spirituality is the 8th Dynamic…” (or something like that) over and over again during the test.
