Comedian or not, Bee's comments concerning the cult relationship between Scientology and NRA are illogical and nonsensical. Cults are a religious practice or worship, a system of beliefs and ritual connected with worship of a deity, spirit or group of deities or spirits, a great or excessive devotion or dedication to some person, idea or thing, the rites, ceremonies and practices of a religion or a religion regarded as unorthodox or spurious. Scientology fits the definition of a cult. The NRA supports the 2nd Amendment of the Bill of Rights. It has no rites, ceremonies and practices of a religion. It exists to inform us that "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." Period. The idea that guns equate to civilian violence relates to a lack of knowledge that knives and blunt objects are the major weapons for humans to use to harm each other, not guns. I can find no data concerning the number of NRA members who have gunned someone down. Jan 30, 2013 - Greg Abbott wrote, "FBI: More people killed with hammers & clubs each year than rifles," and supplied a link to a Jan. ... the FBI's statistics from 2011, the most recent year available, for murders with knives (1,694), personal weapons (728, typed on Facebook as 726), blunt objects (496) and rifles (323).

Does this mean that Scientologists will now hang out at your local gun range looking for recruits?
