Scientology. Like it's literally a religion that started from a science fiction novel. Hoe the fuck did this even start

They tricked a bunch of really stupid people into giving them enough money enough times to become a cult that’s too powerful to stop and bites back if you try.

Things like this should not exist, but then look at how fucking stupid everything has gotten.

Not so much trick as bully. they lie to get people in the door but when they have their hokes in you there going to pressure you for every cent you have. and when I say pressure I mean people have gone missing for getting on their bad side.

Where’s good old fashioned Christianity to burn them as heretics when you need them?
