    Rude? To a religion that physically and/or emotionally traps people? Traps them in those specific labyrinthine buildings shown in the speedruns? In out of the way rooms occasionally shown in these speedruns? No, not rude.

    My only worry is that Scientology will pull itself out of its own ass and twist the narrative to use this as advertising. Or that some kid will do this alone and never return.

      It’s doubtful any kind of increased attention on Scientology will benefit the cult. Too much is already known about them for anyone to take them seriously. In the past, they relied on the public’s lack of knowledge of their inner workings to recruit new members. Today, a quick google will bring up Xenu, Sea Org, harassment campaigns, slavery, the Miscaviges, and South Park. Scientology hasn’t faired well in the Information Age.
