Scientolory is not a church. Scientology is based on a bet between two (IMHO less than mediocre) SciFi authors who got to be millionaire first. Robert Heinlein wrote "Stranger in a Strange Land". Ron Hubbard founded Scientology. You decide what is worse. Scientology is based on the principle: - make money - make more money - make people make more money for you. (their words not mine: http://www.xenu.net/archive/infopack/5.htm) freedom of religion is all fine by me, but scientology is clearly abusing that.
