No need to refer to the past, the 'work' the 'Catholic Church' has done in Africa over the last decade makes scientology look like the Red Cross.

We can keep our fingers crossed that Witchcraft will send the Catholics packing

But saying that If we had to have one preeminent world superstition - It would have to be Buddhism.

None of them are that bad (excluding scientology) as long they're not fundamentalist.

No, you also would catch a Rabbi eating a tree, but luckily I have claimed neither.

I just meant that scientology seems much more sinister and culty than the cults on your list

edit: not saying that other religions don't have sinister aspects: Spanish Inquisition and violent Jihad etc

Front wheel has about 2cm lateral buckle where 2 spokes were broken but no up-down issues or rim damage.

Any chance of a few pics of the damage?

Scientology is a cult.
Christianity is a cult.
Judaism is a cult.
Islam is a cult.
Hinduism is a cult.

You wouldn't catch a Rabbi telling a young Jewish man to disown his family and friends just for not being Jewish

Damn, should have put dibs... never mind

I always find it funny when someone picks on Scientology nutters, the basis of their religion (Xenu, DC8's , Volcanoes etc) is no more bat shit mental than pretty much every other traditional religion.

Nobody's perfect.

I'm very fond of David Hume's argument that we shouldn't believe in miracles, to wit:

Define a miracle as an event which occurs contrary to the laws of known science, such as somebody walking on water, or levitating.

Then consider how you get information about a putative miracle, such as seeing it, or someone telling you.

Then P1 is the probability of the miracle taking place, and P2 is the probability that the source of information you are relying on is faulty (ie whoever told you is lying or your eyes are fooling you).

Hume says, and I believe him, that P2 > P1 in all cases, almost by definition, since miracles are highly improbable.

If we apportion our beliefs rationally, we should always believe what is more probable in a given situation.

Ergo, we should always choose to believe that the miracle report is screwed up, or that our senses aren't working properly, over the belief that a miracle has taken place.

So, I'm afraid, Tynan has good, fat Scottish philosopher company.

'Miracles happen everyday, change your perception of what a miracle is and you'll see them all around you'
