"Well, so what if Hubbard *did* say that Christ was an implant invented by the Evil Xenu, 75 million years ago. In scientology, you don't have to believe it. What is true for you is what's real." Snapper is a fairly skilled liar. +--------------------------------------+ Rev. Dennis L Erlich * * the inFormer * * dennis.l.erlich@support.com + inForm@primenet.com "tar baby"
