Here's a thought... Paul took the Cult of Christ, a Jewish cult, and made it palatable to Gentiles at large. He spent the rest of his life profiting from his efforts. His letters are, after, instructions to his followers on how to best carry on and spread the Good News.
Mohammed's cult isn't all that far removed.
Catholicism was a Big money maker at it height. Big.
How will people view Scientology in a couple Millenia? Who will be the Martin Luther of Scientology?
