...but WTF Scientologists?!

Well, I guess it's no sillier than saying the first woman was made from the rib of the first man.

"Xenu was about to be deposed from power, so he devised a plot to eliminate the excess population from his dominions. With the assistance of "renegades", he defeated the populace and the "Loyal Officers", a force for good that was opposed to Xenu. Then, with the assistance of psychiatrists, he summoned billions of people to paralyse them with injections of alcohol and glycol, under the pretense that they were being called for "income tax inspections". The kidnapped populace was loaded into space planes for transport to the site of extermination, the planet of Teegeeack (Earth). The space planes were exact copies of Douglas DC-8s, "except the DC-8 had fans, propellers on it and the space plane didn't.""

Okay... actually, yes, it is sillier.

Well, the Bible has the rib thing once, and then another telling of Genesis that doesn't have the rib thing. WTF retcon!?

But yeah, the Scientologists are nutbars. There was a South Park episode about them yesterday that was quite funny, and half of what they did was animate the Scientologist's creation story.
