A Letter to Salon: The Scientology Cruise

[bobquasit]

Salon has been doing a decent series of articles about Scientology. I know a bit about Scientology, and I view it as a dangerous cult.

Apparently a lot of Scientologists have been writing angry letters to Salon, so I dashed off a letter to them today:

Subject: Scientology Cruise

Just a quick note from a long-time subscriber. Please don't let the Scientologists intimidate you - they're the NRA of the religious-cult world, and you're in line for a million postcards.

It just means you're doing something right. Good work on the Scientology exposes!

We'll see if they publish it.

I suspect that Salon is pretty much safe from getting destroyed by the Followers of Elron (one short I read years ago featured "Elrons") if for no other reason than even the mainstream media is noting that Tom Cruise is a flake (although apparently not all that bad in the War of the Worlds flick). The followers themselves may be dedicated but the group itself really doesn't seem to be generally respected.
