Scientology (The Celebrity's Religion)

Scientology, what a religion. Founded by science fiction writer, Ron L. Hubbard it is the religion for the stars. I think Southpark did a pretty good job of shedding light on the Scientologist beliefs and Xenu.

Below is a video of 48 hours mystery which tells the story of Elli Perkins. Elli was a Scientologist who had a son that showed signs of strange and disturbing behavior. We all know that Scientologist do not believe in solving mental disorders with medication, but instead using their own methods of treatment.

Elli's son suffered from schizophrenia and started to believe his mom was poisoning him. After a failed suicide attempt he went on to kill his mother. It is a sad story and one that you would think could have been avoided if the son was given proper treatment.

Below is the video of her story which appeared on 48hours Mystery. It is kind of long, so you may want to watch when you are bored in your hotel room, or something.
