Okay, my take on this is that Scientology is originally a sci-fi take on existing religions. Almost step by step, the "beliefs" of Scientology have some shades of Buddhist beliefs. When I read the summary at the top of the thread, I immediately thought that Scientology is nothing more than a rip-off and corruption of Buddhism. It sounds cool, but it should not be taken seriously.
