Journalist Scares Scientologist

On ABC’s Nightline this weekend, journalist Martin Bashir caused a Scientology spokesman to get up and storm off by asking him about specific beliefs of his religion, such as the idea that an intergalactic being named Xenu stored angry spirits in our volcanoes millions of years ago who must be driven off telepathically by church adherents.

Although this is good television, it would be fun to see Bashir treat some other cosmologies I could name as if the most sacred beliefs were totally cuckoo bananas. I was taught as a child to believe that every Sunday we were eating the son of our deity, which even then I found hard to swallow.
