Communism is a religion (worship of the State) masquerading as a political ideology.

Mohammedanism is a political ideology (government of everybody by and for the benefit of the black-robed elites) masquerading as a religion.

Scientology is a religion.

Scientology looks to me like a ponzi scheme masquerading as a religion. I understand that you have a closer perspective on it than I do.

No, not quite, in a Ponzi scheme the first few tiers get there money back.

The Germans are more accurate in describing it as a multi-level marketing scheme.

Yes. Lucky you.

I consider it a religion because it deals with one's spiritual nature and relationship to the universe as such.

That being said, I do NOT say that it is a "good" religion, it is about as amoral a religion as a religion can be.

And an amoral religion run by inherently flawed and intrinsically evil people is...?
