Scientology Injunction Denied Against "Anonymous"

Anonymous writes "A circuit court judge has denied the Church of Scientology's second request for an injunction against protests by the internet group "Anonymous." The Church sought to prevent Anonymous from protesting on the birthday of the Church's leader, the late Ron L. Hubbard. The petition filed by the Church listed twenty-six individuals allegedly affiliated with Anonymous, but "accidentally" included others who merely work near the location of the first protests held in February and did not participate in them, such as a Starbucks employee. Furthermore, the Church failed to show that any of those listed actually committed any wrongdoing."

There are plenty of people worldwide who don't use store bought religion.

By definition, all religions are, as you say, "store bought".

Many have developed a spiritual and ethical system based on their own experience and exploration, but that's not "religion".

Here's an easy rule of thumb: To be a "religion" there must be the organized collection of money.
