Christianity is very loose. If Beck was a member of a Christian cult, it would be a better comparison.

I've been baptized, doesn't mean I follow anything from the Bible.
Scientology isn't like that, your either a following member, being e-readed and taking courses to further your psychokinetic abilities or your out.

Christianity also allows for it's doctrine to be read and interpreted by the public, while Scientology is very closed off and info is only available to higher ranking members, who have spent a lot of money to get that position.

Again, Scientology is not comparable to established religions.

If you want to limit yourself based on your perceptions of the private lives and beliefs of others that's very much your own prerogative but do recognize you're being a bit more than just ignorant with your stance.

Ok. I recognize it. I absolutely will continue to judge others on their beliefs, as well as their private lives if it involves something as astounding as being part of a crazy cult.
