"It was Bahai. Then Scientology. Now Kabbalah."
For some it's still Scientology I think. Theyre a pretty scary cult. They used to have those "stress test" tents outside my old office, I wanted NOTHING to do with those people.
It is a frightening scam, but but very few people fall for it. Probably fewer than 50,000 Americans are active Scientologists and almost all of them live in Southern CA or Clearwater, FL.
