    yea...kudos to that. scientology is another form of religion where they believe in no greater being other than evolution and inlcudes the process of turning negative/bad thoughts, energy into positive enerygy. so yea...its a bit weird, but a religion is still a religion yea.

    Actually, scientology is no more a cult that Christianity was.

    Think about it.
    Virgin birth? Right. Mary had sex with someone other than Joseph and blamed it on God.
    Water into wine? I bet you David Blaine could do the same thing.

    Scientology is just as real a religion as Christianity, Judaism, or Islam.

    That means all religion is whack.

    online definition of cult: a particular system of religious worship, esp. with reference to its rites and ceremonies.

    my conclusion: scientology, cult. but so are all other religions.
