The White Cult may have ties to another, altogether less coherent sect. quote:I mean, wow.

We were at the time. It is only now that we weren't original then. -------------------- Take the Personality Test! Deep down, you wish you were a stick figure. Posts: 1629 | Registered: Wednesday, October 3 2001 07:00 |

Yeesh. Apparently, next time you are wondering whether to turn your campy space opera sketch into an Escape Velocity Total Conversion, you can stop and ask yourself whether it might be just as easy to found a religion with it instead. -------------------- We're not doing cool.

Yeh. While looking up Xenu, I learned for the first time that Scientology has its own 'religious order', whose members hold the church's top offices, and sign a billion year contract when they join up. (Really. They believe in reincarnation, and their official slogan is "We come back.") Even hokier, the order is para-naval, with blue suits, peaked caps, and (really a lot of) gold braid. It's called the 'Sea Organization', having been launched during an interval in the 1960's when Hubbard was escaping legal difficulties in several countries by living on a yacht in the Mediterranean. I suppose most religions have elements that just seem bizarre from outside, but this seems less foreign-culture-bizarre than Saturday-morning-cartoons-bizarre. -------------------- We're not doing cool.
