I highly recommend Leah Remini's expose on Scientology on A&E.

L. Ron Hubbard took his science fiction novel turned it into Dianetics and formed a pseudo religion around it.

Didn’t Bill Clinton’s administration approve this cult for “religious standing” at the IRS?

Greta Van Susteran, (age 62, 5'3") and her attorney husband are long time Scientologists. Her average salary per year is $1.3 million, her net worth is $35 million, making her one of the richest TV news talky-talkers in the country.

Everything associated with Scientology comes with a price.
It is a money-making venture, not a religion.

I think it was L. Ron Hubbard who said, “If you want to make money, don’t start a business. Start a religion.”

She has one of the most amazing series on TV. Explains cult behavior to a tee.

It’s like aspiring to join a very weird country club that you’ll have a very tough time getting out of once you join. They initially do it to get ahead in their careers is the impression that I get. I wonder if the “Hotel California” isn’t Scientology, myself.
