    When Science Fiction Became Scripture

    What happens when a struggling pulp writer discovers that religion pays better than fiction? In 1949, L. Ron Hubbard allegedly told fellow science fiction writers at a gathering, "If a man really wants to make a million dollars, the best way would be to start his own religion." Whether or not he actually said this, he certainly proved the concept. Within a year, his book *Dianetics* became a bestseller, promising to cure everything from asthma to psychosis in less than twenty hours. Within a decade, he'd transformed his self-help method into a full-fledged religion with devoted followers willing to sign billion-year contracts. Today, Scientology claims millions of members worldwide, though independent surveys suggest closer to 25,000 in America. Yet its influence far exceeds its numbers, bolstered by Hollywood's biggest stars and approximately $1 billion in liquid assets. How did a man who couldn't pay his sailors or pass his college engineering courses create a belief system that still attracts intelligent, successful people - and why do so many who leave describe it as a dangerous cult?
