Take a gander at all these really smart people who believe in scientology.

Just LOOK at all those PhDs. We all better sign up today. And any scientologist who loses faith despite all these really smart people who believe in scientology must be uninformed.

by the way, are all the smart believers in any given religion balanced out by all the stupid believers in that same religion?
We hate to seem like we don’t trust every nut with a story, but there’s evidence we can point to, and dance while shouting taunting phrases.

If they leave, what... do they change and become Presbyterian or Scientology historians?
They have a captive audience where they are and more than enough material to keep making money for years to come... or become stand up comics using the same stuff.
Before you criticize someone, walk a mile in their shoes. That way when you do criticize them you'll be a mile away and you'll have their shoes.
