Hmmm...reminds me of a certain science fiction writer who went on to be the founder of a new religion. L. Ron, someone? ;o)
And not only Hubbard, but in occultic revelations he is similar to souls like Mary Baker Eddy, http://peacebyjesus.witnesstoday.org/Bible_versus_S.C.C.S.html:
“In the year 1866 I discovered the Science of Metaphysical healing, and named it Christian Science. God had been graciously fitting me, during many years, for the reception of a final revelation of the absolute Principle of a Scientific Mind-healing. No human pen or tongue taught me the science contained in this book...and neither tongue nor pen can overthrow it.”
And Joe Smith, http://peacebyjesus.witnesstoday.org/JosephSmithVersusJESUS.CHRIST.html:
Claimed that the angel Moroni (who is nowhere found in the Bible) told him every single church, without exception, and their essential beliefs (which Mormons build upon) were corrupt?
Writes a fantastic and detailed tale of an immigration of Hebrews to South America, which supposedly formed a vast society.
And Swedenborg, http://peacebyjesus.witnesstoday.org/Swedenborg.html:
..his occultic delusions began in 1744, resulting in him announcing that he had received a divine summons from Christ to become both a seer and a revelator of the things of the spiritual world... and restore Christianity. He claimed that the Lord had opened his spiritual eyes, so that from then on he could freely visit heaven and hell, and talk with angels, demons and other spirits.
Or Muhammad, http://peacebyjesus.witnesstoday.org/JESUS.Vs.Muhammad.html:
And when Allah saith: O Jesus, son of Mary! Didst thou say unto mankind: Take me and my mother for two gods beside Allah?:
That they said (in boast), “We killed Christ Jesus the son of Mary, the Messenger of Allah”;- but they killed him not, nor crucified him, but so it was made to appear to them..4:157 (Yusuf Ali)
Or Elijah Muhammad, http://peacebyjesus.witnesstoday.org/BIBLE_vs_NOI.html:
The moon came about after a black scientist/god drilled a 4 to 5,000 mile mine shaft into the Earth then detonated explosives at the bottom. This blasted the moon 12,000 miles out of the earth, which dropped it’s waters to make the oceans
The devil is the white man, created through 600 years of compelled selective breeding of 59,999 followers on the island of Patmos (a small Greek island of 13 square miles, Pop. 3,000) by an evil scientist-god by the name of Yacub, who was born (approx.) 6,600 years ago 20 miles from Mecca. He died but his followers carried on his project until completion
Among others.
