L Ron Hubbard, my hat's off to you. You set out to create a money making religion from scratch, and God help you, you did.
H.L. Mencken, my hat's off to you, too. You once said "No one ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American people.", and God help you, you were right.
You can never go wrong with Mencken:
"The most curious social convention of the great age in which we live is the one to the effect that religious opinions should be respected."
