Scientologists are the new Jews.
Me personally, when I tried to read Dianetics book some 35 years ago I couldn’t get past the first 5 pages so it’s not for nor never been for me.
But look what it’s evolved into. A business club of sorts, like Jews, Mormans, Old school Japanese and Chinese. First rule of thumb .... exhaust your belief network before going to outsiders with your money.
I’ve been inside the Hollywood and Clearwater facilities for business purposes. They had lots of rooms, lots of doors and lots of pictures 8x5 pictures of LRH in various Naval attire gazinging lovingly towards the sky.
