"Well, Scientologists have one point, though. Rather than stuffing your body with Paxil, Proza, Zoloft, etc. they recommend a balanced diet and exercise. And no, I am not a Scientologist."

YEAH RIGHT. And they also recommend you sign a "billion year contract" and get hooked up to a meter when you are starving to death.

And don't forget that according to them we all were dumped off in a volcano in Hawaii by the evil galactic ruler "Xenu"...

Scientology is one of the sickest and most dangerous organizations on the planet.

Scientology is one of the sickest and most dangerous organizations on the planet.

That's overstating it a bit.

BTW, the billion year contract? That's only for the 'elite' SeaOrg members, not even for all staff.

Also, it wasn't just Hawai'i, there were several volcanos they claim were used as what amounts to soul crematoria...

Another reason they are dangerous is that they are milking the public purse for their own ends -- the Liberal Disease.

In this particular flim-flam, they made upwards of 300% profit with what used to be recognized instantly as a bribe: "... The Post reported this week that Scientologists from around the country pumped nearly $115,000 into the Manhattan borough-president campaign of Councilwoman Margarita Lopez, who has steered more than $600,000 in public funds to the facility.

Interesting that the Scientologists knew just which corrupt politician to turn to when they were bent on raiding public funds. It would seem that Ms. Lopez was batting her eyes and wearing her "For Sale" sign.
