How could such a ridiculous and all-encompassing contract be legally enforcible, when at the point of signing, people don't know what they're agreeing to, and are asked to sign away their rights to pursue recourse ever, in perpetuity, of anything the church does, even if the church itself is in breach of "ordinary care". There is no contract in the world that can absolve one from all responsibility for murder, torture, etc., but this contract attempts to do just that.

This is worded as if one couldn't sue even if the "church" deliberately, knowingly, and maliciously placed him in harm's way -- like tying him down and running a car over him. And it even tries to prohibit others, such as family members, from pursuing recourse if they suffer a loss of income because of his death due to church criminal negligence. How can one person sign away others' rights? None of it seems "kosher."

This contract is so overbroad as to constitute human slavery. Any lawyer who drew it up should be disbarred for creating a contract whose clear intention is to intimidate and defend against any and all outrageous and unconscionable behavior, even systemic behavior. It's just not enforcible if it violates statutes, and its my (layman) opinion that the contract violates many statutes.

Since when should one need to take a lawyer with them to a "church" just to protect themselves? It's pretty clear that the "church" of Scientology is anything but a religious entity.
