WikiLeaks, the controversial whistle-blower website that publishes highly classified and copyrighted documents, has been in the news in mid-2010 for leaking over 90,000 documents (known as the Afghan War Diary) about the War in Afghanistan.

Though the reports have not received as much media coverage, secret documents and information about religions, cults, and spiritual groups can also be found on the Wikileaks website in a category identified as “Cults and Religious Organizations.” To read about the differences between cults and religions, see article What is a Cult?

There are documents from several religious and spiritual bodies on Wikileaks, with the greatest number of leaks pertaining to the Church of Scientology and the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Both churches have taken action in an attempt to get Wikileaks to remove the content, but thus far, the efforts have been unsuccessful.
