    Click watch at the top right 30 minute documentary,they seem to have pretty large resources at their disposal,this "religion" is insane if you disagree with them they dig up your entire past and try to slander you :yum

    The reporter loses his cool at the end and goes mental:D

    HA! You think THAT'S bad?!?!? Have you heard of the Westboro Baptist Church, run by Fred Phelps and his family? Scary people. They run the sites:

    www.godhatesfags.com
    www.godhatesamerica.com
    www.godhatescanada.com
    www.gothatessweden.com

    They picket the funerals of dead soldiers because there are gay people in the military. They held a rally around a neighbouring church that had burnt. The BBC did a documentary on them, too:

    I saw this story yesterday and was surprised by the fact that L Ron H was also keenly interested in Aleister Crowley's works. Magick anyone?

    Which ironically, the movie starred Travolta. I did a research project on Scientology a few years back. Scary stuff.
