Memo to Elton Gallegly: We’re gasping on the beach
I always try to put things in perspective with "One God Many Paths". Not that I think that Scientology is a viable path. I noted when back south that some "Evangelists" were actually there to help and lead by example while others where there to use the opportunity to push their beliefs and used it as condition of their offering help.
Defining religion, cults, folklore, and spiritualism, is difficult. When does a belief change into a religion and where is the line drawn that defines the move into full blown cultism? ( is that a word?). Are the Four Corners and the Great Spirit less true than the Jesus of Nazareth? What about the teachings of of Siddhartha Guatama?
My personal belief is that Scientology is a bunch of crap, a cult, and very dangerous.
Then again, I agree with you about these guys.
Scientology, on the other hand, is a pure money grab from day one. So on the one hand, they're giving aid and help to those in need, but the price for signing on to the Scientology way of life seems far too high to me.
