"Hatchet-job implies I butchered the religion when, in fact, I presented the facts as clearly as I could get them. "

Below is not a fact. It is clearly an opinion. It is clearly presented as the opinion of the author of the piece.   

"Although a shameless shyster and thief, we should not dismiss Hubbard as merely a huckster who used occultism strictly to further his own ends."

You seem to think that you deserve the courtesy of your unsupported, poorly articulated opinions being read as "History".

Ebbie did you a kindness by wading through all of that muck then giving you her feedback. How did you react? By attacking her. I doubt that you will get her to read any long piece of yours again. I'll bet that you have lost a few readers with this thread. If you want readers you need to show more respect for your audience, both in the whiting and the feedback stage.

By the way Don Firth's little piece is by far the most credible and readable information about Scientology on this thread.

On a personal note, is your employer hiring people to write?
