Ok, I know this must sound ASB as hell, but bear with me here.

Anyone who reads old-school sci-fi, particularly any L. Ron Hubbard, has heard the apocryphal story that Hubbard once told a colleague that "anyone who wanted to make money would create his own religion." While Hubbard dabbled in self-help with Dianetics, he of course never went so far as to try and build a religion around it. But what if he had? Can anyone see "Hubbardism" getting off the ground, maybe attracting some celebrities latching onto the novelty factor?
