Template:ScientologySeries Tilman Hausherr is a German citizen living in Berlin, Germany. He is a software developer and the author of the software Xenu's Link Sleuth, but he is best known for his criticism of Scientology.

He has been described as a "critic of Scientology", an "anti cult-figure", and an "anti-cultist" . Hausherr maintains a website with material related to Scientology, including the Scientology celebrities FAQ. He has been writing some several years in the Lutheran magazine "Berliner Dialog" (no longer published), published by the Lutheran Sect Commissioner of Berlin, Priest Thomas Gandow, and others.

A negative article about Hausherr appears on the Scientology-sponsored website Religious Freedom Watch, which also features negative articles about other critics of the Church of Scientology, whom the site calls "anti-religious extremists." Various sources credit Hausherr for coining the term "Sporgery" in the Usenet newsgroup alt.religion.scientology, to which he is a regular contributor.
