  Every religion is an unusual practise, it's just that we are used to them. If I told you I spoke to my imaginary friend last night you'd consider me crazy, if I told you I spoke to god last night you'd consider me religious

  See sham, fraud, fake, or any word adjacent to those.
  
  Basically its a falsetto 'religion' in which eternal happiness is attained by donating all of your money to the leaders.
  
  Founded by L. Ron Hubbard as a way to scheme money and make a fast buck off his books. One of the 'holiest' days in this religion is Hubbard's birthday.
  
  Because most celebrites such as Tom Cruise and John Travolta are too stupid to realize it, they belong to this group.
  If you even THINK of joining scientology, you should be kicked in the balls...hard.
