It is amazing how apparently easy it is for these fringe religions to attract new members. Take Jehovah Witnesses for example. You can’t celebrate holidays, you can’t socialize with anybody outside the religion, you have to spend much of your free time going door-to-door handing out Watchtower phamplets, etc., yet you have people saying “that sounds neat” and joining up in droves.
The Mormons seem to have it solved.
And God created Scientologists just so Jehovah’s Witnesses would have somebody to laugh at.
