I don't know anyone - to my knowledge - who is into Scientology. Nor do I - to my knowledge - know anyone into Jehovah's Witnesses. Nor - to my knowledge - anyone into Paganism.

I do have family in the World Wide Church of God (Herbert Armstrong) and I was reared Amish; I have hundreds of relatives in the Amish and Mennonite churches.

To my mind practically every religion began life as a cult. What do you suppose people said about brand new Christianity?

I think that fear, whether of harm or of being swallowed up, is at the root of hate and distrust and scorn, kind of like Capitalism versus Communism- if one system is superior to the other it will eventually become evident.

Abuse is Society's concern. Treat that and leave the rest alone. Ain't our business.
