    an excellent read for those concerned for friends or family getting involved with Scientology

    with the proliferation of self help groups these days, if anyone you know starts going on about one, please take the time to research them, you could save a friend from long term mental damage

    I wish I had my own religion,
    One like that with nutcase followers that do anything I say, give me all there money, and defend my religion to the point of just attacking other peoples faith without even being provoked.

    Emperor Waz,
    From the Church of Awesome.

    Yea...

    Oooh, a can of worms! :pac:

    OP, maybe Irish people are greedy, but that has a lot to do with the Celtic Tiger and the increasing importance social places on the material.

    I think the recession's made us return to more traditional values, because no one can afford to be as self-centered or self-indulgent anymore.
