I think one of L Rons books was about a guy who started a phony religion wasn't it?
He was obviously a bit of a con merchant. He was involved in occult stuff with Jack Parsons, one of the guys who worked at the JPL with Werner Von Braun et al, and went into business with him. Only he ripped him off, ran off with the woman he was living with and used the money to publish Dianetics. The whole religion is based on fraud.
