:(wes) Actually Robert Heinlein got one of his ideas in Strangers in a Strange Land from fellow SciFi writer L. Ron Hubbard, the sole founder of the Church of Scientology.
Interesting. Never read either author. But the above quote, out of context, makes perfect sense to me. It's pretty clear there are some scoundrels involved in these organizations. But a good many, even at the top, are pretty certainly true beleivers. And virtually all of their supporters are.
:(wes) Ginger, next time you go to FACTnet, look at their financial supporters and see if you see me there.

Come to think of it, I'm pretty sure I came across factnet while searching on your name.
