I couldn't agree more with the OP. Christianity, Islam, etc. are ALL just as ridiculous as Scientology. I like the way you stated that, too...a very good summary. A jealous, spiteful, vengeful, narcissistic god who was pissed off at his pets because one of them got duped by a snake into eating an apple and heriting on some mysterious corruption to the rest of his pets decided as a last resort to impregnate one of his pets with his "son" (which according to the trinity is actually god himself). This son (read: god himself) went on to live like a mortal for many years showing off his godly powers by walking on water, dicing fish, and turning mere water into booze (I'd like to learn that trick). Subsequently, said god was captured, tortured, and nailed to a wooden post (effectively committing suicide because of that omniscience thing), kept in a state of suspended animation for two days only to be resurrected and magically ascend into heaven for all eternity and lavished with the worship of many millions of his pets. This bizarre split-personality suicide of sorts for some weird reason redeems god's pets with one caveat: they must go out of their mind lavishing worship and gratitude believing without question god killed himself for them because one of their ancestors ate an apple through no fault of their own OR they are condemned forever to indescribably merciless torment in some unfathomable torture chamber. If that isn't insanity, I don't know what is.
IIN to think that Christians shouldn't make fun of Scientology?
