Scientology, Schmientology

The "Church" of Scientology bothers me on a number of levels, not the least of which is their rabid desire to destroy psychiatry without any discernible reason.

Another objection I have is its driven need to aggressively recruit and convert others, and the sense I get from them that their way is the only way.

I never hear them refer to Jesus, so I'm not sure what religion they consider themselves to be affiliated with. It's really more like a system of thought than a religion; I don't know that they worship any deity (except L. Ron Hubbard, for crying out loud). I think worshipping people is more like a cult than a religion.

As a matter of fact, simply to spite them and for no other reason, I am putting a link to the American Psychiatric Assocation's website here.
