Should the Church of Scientology be stamped out, or should it be allowed to proliferate?

Do you think they are morally correct? Would God approve?

Update:

( I'm not ripping on them, just looking for informed opinions)

    They do not follow scripture and with that being the case, are not divinely approved.

    But it is not up the the true christian to act.

    Christ will deal with them in due time.

    This is America, and here we do have freedom OF religion (don't let the ACLU know this) and this can be applied to the Church of Scientology. However, this being said, the formation of the COS finds it's roots in the mind of L. Ron Hubbard, who was a writer of science fiction, and also arose with other churches of dubious value such as the Church of Satan via Anton LaVey and countless others. My opinion is that the COS allows many of the Leftist Hollywood idiots a way to worship something without actually admitting God exists, they just have to pay for it, and pay they do.

    I think the Church of Scientology is simply ridiculous! However, many people think that of my religion (Wicca) and I'm grateful for our freedom of religion. Many people seem to like Scientology so as long as they don't try to convert me, I'll have to learn to tolerate their beliefs as people learn to tolerate my beliefs.

    The church of Scientology is a prime example of why we need to "constitutionally protect" Christianity, not religion! Non-Christian people don't know the difference. They destroy what saves them and promote what kills them. And you know, God said it would happen.

    Each soul here has the responsibility of making choices, nothing else here matters. Do you choose love back to father/creater of souls in his image (not humans) The souls with all the power of the creator to a lessor degree manifested this place.

    Or do you choose dominion the other place.

    If you are sharing your view it is love, if you are trying to "change/manipulate" it is dominion.

    seek inward my friend, seek inward, choose love.

    They're a cult and should be wiped off the face of the earth. It's a fad religion made up by a science fiction writer. It's not "science" at all.

    God's Word was already given to us the way He wanted us to have it! We don't need any deviations from the True God Almighty Jesus Christ!

    HITAN ( Democracy in Heaven ), we should allow each religion/ faith/ idea and be open to all. We allow you to decide what faith you want so why not allow others that chose
