Sad to say, by decision of an idiot sitting in a fiscal commission, they reached this goal in Italy. So they can say "the our is a religion" and think "so we save money".

Anyway, the best description of Scientology was given by Isaac Asimov, in an old rewiew maybe still available on the web.
Nothing more than a sort of slot machine for rich and stupid people, as development of a not-so-great-background-idea for science fiction novels.
