I think everfree has made a good point of this in the past.
He/she (he-he!) has stated that there are passages in the Bible such as in Leviticus that call for the murder of homosexuals, for instance, and those aren't emphasized any more by Christians.
The same thing COULD happen with the Hubbard's illegal/insane policies, too.
As long as the Church has some kind of check and balance system placed upon it and real every-day people are allowed to exert some kind of control over its power, I think it may work.
But people like Miscavage have to be long gone off the lines, and the fanatics can't have unchecked power any more.
That's why I'm for reform of the Church. I think it could work.
We need a court case of the magnitude of the Mary Sue felony conviction, where Scientology's whole survival is at stake, and they are forced to change their ways or be totally, and legally dismantled.
Only then will they agree: be sane, or go under.
