Yes It's all looney tunes but that goes also for religion in general so I suppose they are no worse!
Pippa, yes he was buddies with the Sci Fi writer Robert Heinlein and they apparentlky got chatting a bar one night about how easily people can be controlled by religion and Hubbard bet he could come up with all manner of wacky ideas an weave them into a religion. The rest is history.

The FBI found this letter in his house...
RE CLINIC, HAS
The arrangements that have been made seem a good temporary measure. On a longer look, however, something more equitable will have to be organized. I am not quite sure what we would call the place - probably not a clinic - but I am sure that it ought to be a company, independent of the HAS but fed by the HAS. We don't want a clinic. We want one in operation but not in name. Perhaps we could call it a Spiritual Guidance Center. Think up its name, will you. And we could put in nice desks and our boys in neat blue with diplomas on the walls and 1. knock psychotherapy into history and 2. make enough money to shine up my operating scope and 3. keep the HAS solvent. It is a problem of practical business. I await your reaction on the religion angle. In my opinion, we couldn't get worse public opinion than we have had or have less customers with what we've got to sell. A religious charter would be necessary in Pennsylvania or NJ to make it stick. But I sure could make it stick. We're treating the present time beingness, psychotherapy treats the past and the brain. And brother, that's religion, not mental science.
Best Regards,
Ron

As always,it's another religion that has borrowed ideas from other religions/cultures then with the emphasis on using science-fiction names for the many practises within it's basic ideology they have built up quite a following.
It's a bit like the so-called anti-wrinkle potions on sale; Just because the gunk(mostly consisting of water) has plenoflipodones as the essential ingredient,the public are supposed to be astounded that the long word should baffle us into believing it's real and effective in providing a cure.

It is a cult. I mean seriously, how ******* stupid are the likes of Cruise and Travolta if they believe in this old pony?
(mind you, there's a woman in my office who swears blind the whole Adam and Eve thing and Noah - real Old Testament stuff - actually happened, and she is not even prepared to discuss the possibility that it didn't, so I guess all religions spout a load of old rollocks).

I don't mind people believing crazy beliefs, if they don't cause any harm...I mean, thinking Star Wars is a documentary is unlikely to harm anyone. What's scary about Scientology is that L. Ron Hubbard said that the best way to earn a fast buck was starting a religion...he died with some �400,000,000 in his estate.
