    Since all observable evidence is merely at the discretion of the Flying Spaghetti Monster, it is quite clear to me that He altered L. Ron Hubbard's understanding of the universe by means of His noodly appendage and for His own purposes, presumably to test our faith.

    Criticism of the Church of Scientology often brings to light the story of Xenu. The Church has tried to keep Xenu confidential;[1] critics claim revealing the story is in the public interest, given the high prices charged for OT III, part of Scientology's secret "Advanced Technology" doctrines taught only to members who have already contributed large amounts of money to the organization.[2]

    Bwahahhaa. This makes me laugh. How ridiculously stupid do you have to be to fall for this? I agree with Idaho, this is a shame to all other religions.

    Well then, the denomination of Cruise will soon proclaims a new doctrine that the Travolta sect disputes! And there will be war over this!

    Whoever wins got to rewrite Xenu's Bizarre Adventure and sells it to the general public.

    It is an insult to other legitimate religions to call it a religion. Other religions need money to exist, scientology only exists to make money.

    Agreed.

    The bold bit tends to suggest it is a load of bollocks, as they know they have to brainwash people before they will believe such bollocks.
