In others, he became innovating much different from Wovoka’s legit causes to help the Paiute people; L.Ron Hubbard was after the member's pockets. The Church of Scientology made people undergo Auditing to achieve becoming clear. Auditing is expensive for what it is, as it is an Electropsychometer that is able to show the small increments in the electrical resistance of a person.

backstory of humanity, about how Earth is a slave prison planet and humans were brought here on passenger airplanes 75 million years ago, stacked around volcanoes, and blown up with hydrogen bombs by Xenu, dictator of the “Galactic Confederacy” (Lewis).

All I will say is there are always two sides to everything, and we must respect each side. Overall, with Scientology I ended up…

Women Stereotyped in Literature Niceness, kindness, and smartness are often seen in women in modern literature and society, but women once were tortured by stereotypes of stupidity, weakness and greed in the past. Two representative myths, The Norse Myths and Genesis prove this to be true. In “The Theft of Idun’s Apples” of the Norse Myths, the goddess Idun is portrayed to be so innocent but weak and stupid that she easily gets tricked and kidnapped by the god Loki, who needs to take…
