Considering your point of view on all things religious, this could be a difficult discussion. So if you consider The Church Of The Jedi or Pastafarianism to be bonafide religions, then there is no point in us wasting our time. If you do indeed draw a line between organizations with origins that arise from actual faith and those who are scams perpetrated for various reasons when defining religions then we might have something to discuss. I would expect you are aware of the history of Sci/Dia but if not, as Anonymous says, "Google is your friend". > > Quacks like a duck Maru. > Sounds more like the barking of Lawyers to my ear. Have you seen "Anonymous' Response To The Media"? This, to me, is the single most science fictional real-life-event of my lifetime. Offhand I cannot recall anything that resonated with my favorite genre the way this story does. You always hear people say "You can't make this stuff up", but in this case every aspect of it is like something "made up". Probably because every aspect of it is. xponent The Silence Of The Scientologists Maru rob _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
