Not really, but it is amusing watching their fan clubs get worked up when they are challenged.  Sort of what I imagine an Elvis fan club meeting is like.

What is most amusing is that the people who shout most loudly that there is a "historical core" to their particular brand of bullshit would be the same ones who would deny most loudly that any other religion dreamed up by the human imagination has a "historical core."
