You don’t get rich writing science fiction. If you want to get rich, you start a religion.

For people who don’t know… he founded Scientology

Why the quotes? If they believe in Jesus I assume they’re Christians. There are as many interpretations of the scriptures as Christian sects.

Fake Christians say they love Jesus then speak and act against his lessons.

Is that a Nazi black sun on the front, too? Scary stuff…
That’s not a sonnenrad, just a sun symbol
That looks like my kind of used book store! Love the ones with tons of plywood shelves.
There seem to be so few of them left, sadly.
