It's not really a religion, so you can't protect it that way.
I hear that it's a made-up 'ideology' that stems from a bet made by L. Ron Hubbard - 'I bet I can make a lot of money from creating my own religion'. And he did. So why close it down?
Any practice that has a central tenet of 'give us ALL of your money, and then some more, in order to feel a bit better about yourself' is not just creepy, it's evil.

..Yeah, i've said that abit wrong.
I agree, it is bad. But raiding places and such is stupid.
And I'm not trying to defend the things they've done
Its wrong, i don't think it should be allowed to make people give them money, i also know that they ruin peoples lives when they leave,
and is that true?
"L. Ron Hubbard - "I bet I can make a lot of money from creating my own religion". And he did. So why close it down?"
So its just a scam. And tbh, with all the moneyness, it sounds like one.
