Being filled with crazy people is the precursor of the formation of a religion

You asked my opinion- and I think it's a cult. And a dangerous one at that. Read up on it.. there is a very informative web site, Xenu net that has a lot of info about that "religion".

They have some very attractive TV commercials on at this time. I pray for the people getting sucked into it.

The only difference I say tell is the length of time the group has been in existence.

Cult, very similar to Islam though less severe (they'll not punish you for naming a teddy "L Ron Hubbard"..

It is based on a book by L Ron Hubbard, a well known science fiction writer. The book is called Dianetics. It is the craziest cult yet.

Religion is simply a way to control the masses. Religion doesn't exist in what people believe it does. Doing some simple research shows that all world religions are the same, right down to the deity or figure they worship, same dates, same miracles, same crap. Maybe Scientology has more merit then?

Yes, it is a religion. Is it really anymore crazy than any other religion? I don't really think so. It certainty is more original. My main criticism towards Scientology is that it is set up to make money for the top. It's basically one big scheme.
