Breaking With Scientology
Okay, I live in a cave. I had no idea what Scientology is until yesterday, when I read the New York Times article, Breaking With Scientology. This religion was started in 1952 by a science fiction writer named Hubbard. Among other things, Scientologists believe they are immortal. I like that. I just wish it were true.
My take is this: T.S. Elliott summed it up best. "Man cannot bear very much reality." It seems to me that for many, they cannot bear hardly any reality at all. I think they fear reality, which is outside their control, and, in refuge, turn to absurdity.

I found a lot of informative videos on Scientology on youtube. I still don't know a lot about it, but it did help me kind of make a picture in my head.
