...to sum up this great CD. Brilliantly satirical and right on target throughout! The performances don't blink, and the music/lyrics/arrangements are hysterical.

Ahh, how controversial this production was.
In fact, during production, Scientologists made certain to threaten as many people as they could to prevent its' production.
As a result, they created a Streisand effect, whereby it got publicity and more people came to see it.
From the opening disclaimer to the final verses, the act guides you through the torrid history of Scientology and unapologetically describes its' founder and how he came up with every aspect of the "Religion".
To address "Religious persecution" I believe the following need only be said:
"The point of satire is to address issues that would otherwise be left unsaid but need be addressed. Through the history of man, no religion is without criticism. As such, freedom of speech should not be curbed because it offends anyone."
This CD was awesome and I highly recommend that if you wish to hear a good story that has its' roots in the history of Scientology but do not wish to read it, this is the CD for you.
