Scientology is not that different from other religions. And yet, at the same time, we don't have Anglicans doing the things that are alleged to be done in Scientology, at least in the Sea Org.
From Louis Theroux
I think of myself as being quite affable, approachable, fairly easy to get to know.
I think I have a slight fear of intimacy.
I was always attracted and repelled by the idea of being a writer.
I both admired my father and his writing, and I saw how much he valued it.
I am genuinely a bit confused about the world, a little bit bumbling.
My guilty fear is that what I'm doing, probably anyone could do. And that I just got a lot of lucky breaks.
One of the things I have always enjoyed about Scientology is their proactive approach to journalists who are covering them.
Not counting the brand of Sunni Islam practised by the so-called Islamic State, there is probably no religion in the world that comes in for more flak than Scientology.
True believers of Scientology seem to know with utmost certainty that they have found the answer to the deepest riddles of all time - they may or may not be right, but that kind of self-belief is very appealing.
