Atheists and anti-christians could argue that no other organized religion is any better because religion follows scripture, what they believe to be a work of fiction. I say no. Read this crap about Scientology. Just read it. It doesn't matter if you're a hardcore athiest or a devout Christian. Their beliefs are unbelievable, and I mean that in as many connotations and uses of the word "unbelievable" as possible.
I find this to be extremely strange... not the religion, but the statement.
Christianity comes from a written book... A book that is full of bullshit but is accepted non the less.
Now scientoligy comes along, also in a book full of bullshit, and it doesn't matter what is in it, they can worship beans for all I care, but this is not accepted?

How can you say: The bullshit in this book is believeable, but the bullshit in this book is not? Lets sum it up:

Bible: Invisible man in the sky, man pinned to a cross with nails, dieing after about a week, turning water into wine, splitting water, walking on water, ect.

Scientology: People being immortal spiritual beings, no belief should be forced, no invisible man, ect (fair note: I did not read everything about this, but that does not influance the point).

If anything, I would say the scientology story is more believeable then the christian story if only because it does not involve fatherly figures in blue skies and people walking on water...
