July 28, 200520 yr I was referring to the Scientology Bible more than Hubbard's fiction. Very few people have created successful religions of that magnitude, such that they are internationally recognized and have public headquarters. Even fewer of these have created such religions based upon growing their own personal wealth by taking members' assets. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I actually held a Raelean Bible in my hands. A friend of mine found it, and we laughed unbearably hard for hours. It had random pictures and passages all over the place. Apparently Ghadi was a Raelean and everything. Also, Chakra points on your body allow you to transform into a spaceship if you know how. I'm not kidding.
July 28, 200520 yr Caodai is a fun new Vietnamese religion, with Jesus, Mohammed, Confucius, Victor Hugo and Shakespeare (amongst others) as Saints. The eye of God is a bit scary, though. The Cao Dai temple I visited had a massive globe with the eye on it, and I could help thinking of Sauron. :ph34r: "An electric puddle is not what I need right now." (Nina Kalenkov)
