How did Scientology get as far as it did today?

I never paid much attention until a short time ago when a friend of mine from California mentioned it to me. When he explained it, I couldn't help but laugh.

It sounds like a cult. But how the hell did it come as far as it did when so many others have died out?

I almost died in a shootout

So, a few years ago, I was down in Michoacán, Mexico, meeting up with some friends and family.

This area I was visiting was well-known, but for the wrong reasons. Mainly because the Los Viagras are known to frequent the city.

So things were very casual at first. My two friends and my cousin were just hanging out at this rental. Talking about plans, when we suddenly heard people screaming outside.

I went up to the window to check what the hell was going on. And lo and behold, people were running around the streets with rifles and body armor, but I knew they weren't police or military.

So, I went back to my friends, and we started playing video games. After some time, the window suddenly exploded because of a stray bullet.

Crazy experience!
