Scientology defended .. are you kidding me?

[MitchBenn]

Scientology makes all other religions look bad.


And that's about the only thing positive I can think of . . .


besides LRH admitting the whole thing was a scam to make money, which means it's not a religion at all and therefore falls out of the continuum of things discussed here ?


hock:

What the hell do you think Mormonism was?

Pretty much all religion is the continuation of a successfully executed con trick. The thing which distinguishes Scientology is that it was a con perpetrated in plain sight within living memory .
