Because Scientologists are expected to sever all ties with non-believers, which means isolating them from their families and close friends. They are also expected to turn over nearly all of their money to the "church" as donations, and payment for courses. Members are pressured to deny themselves and their families traditional medical/psychological treatments, and rely on the organizations dubious "therapies", which have caused deaths in the past.

Scientology also conducts campaigns of bullying and harassment against those who criticize it's practices, and has been prosecuted in the past for defrauding it's own members, and planting spies in the IRS.

There are certain characteristics and mental attitudes that cause a percentage of the population to violently oppose any betterment activity or group. This small percentage of society (roughly 2 percent) cannot tolerate that Scientology is successfully improving conditions around the world. This same 2 percent is opposed to any effective self-betterment activity. The reason they so rabidly oppose Scientology is because it is doing so much to help society. Those who are upset that people are improving are few in number compared to the millions who have embraced Scientology and applaud its effort to build a better world.
