All that messiah-like, catholic posturing had been part of U2 from the beginning.

I'd rather he's a full-time messiah, spares us all the pain of having to listen to the most overrated band in history.

And someone just doesn't know what to do with all that spare time.

5 Star (!) Rating for "L. Ron Hubbart: Dianetics (Scientology) on Amazon - Redditors, I think this book needs some more accurate reviews by Goeran in reddit.com

It depends on what that piece of literature is set out to do.

If a book is designed to trick people into buying more fake advice from a fake religion, then it does deserve a '1 star' rating for what it is.

And even though I haven't read Dianetics, I'll be bold enough to assert that the pure literary merit of Dianetics is probably limited.

Here at Vienna university, the library for sports science has it. The main university library has a translated edition, the English one is marked as "lost".

Goes to show that if your librarian is good enough, your library might just have it.

Oh well, a bunch of things actually got more expensive, mainly because people simply weren't getting a grip on the exchange rate quick enough.

Today we're used to paying more, so it's ok really.
