36. ummm...Scientology's beliefs aren't whats under attack here...
nobody really cares what Alien gods they believe in. If you think they are attacked because of "creepy" beliefs then you have a poor understanding of what they are and what they do...

The issue is how they are charging (i.e. fleecing) their members in a massive pyramid scheme that preys on peoples vulnerability and gullability.

The issue is how they are forcing some members to cut all ties with their families.

The issue is how they are pushing members (through seaorg) into slave labor to construct scientology centers and retreats around the world.

The issue is how at least one member was kidnapped by members and locked in a hotel room until she starved to death.

The issue is how they harass, stalk, and attack through frivolous litigation anybody who chooses to speak out against the church.

The issue is how they characterize and demonize physchiatrists and medication for mental health, to the point that one of their past members went of his meds and committed murder.

The list goes on. Oops, we better look out. They might be coming for me since I'm an SP.
