L. Ron Hubbard (the creator of Scientology) WAS a science fiction writer LOL. It reminds me of how some people actually follow the "Jedi religion" because of Star Wars.

People follow the Jedi religion? lol Wow... Yeah, I read that on Wiki, and I was like, "Did he just make up this crud to make money?"
Maggie: Oh, yeah it is a video file. :(

Well, maybe I'll look it up on my granny's computer. Thanks. I could Google it, too, I suppose.
Oh, and if anybody's curious: www.mormon.org is a website available that tells you about our church and will hopefully answer some questions people have about us.

I'm a Methodist, which is a sect of Protestantism. I think the main difference, or at least one of them, between that and LDS is that Protestants don't regard Joseph Smith as a prophet and don't believe in his story about the golden plates and all of that. We follow the teachings of the Old and New Testament. I won't get into Catholicism, but I think Presbyterians, Baptists, and other Protestant sects believe the same stuff overall; they just differ in small areas. Some are more conservative, stricter, or traditional than others.
I'm not going to pretend to be any kind of religion expert though, so I'm probably not the one who should be answering this question LOL.

Yeah, I've heard that before about the Jedi. And according to South Park, yes LOL (about Scientology just being out to make money). That's why they charge people to hear "The Secret" (about Xenu and all of that LOL).
