There are 'believers' of this religion and then there are MEMBERS.

I don't know about that... You need to be a member to get higher up in understanding and get the papers that train you to become a level 8. If you believe in it and don't practice, well then you don't really believe in it at all.
This is the trap they've set.

I'm going to concur w/ the statements about brainwashing.
When I turned 20, I went to Hollywood to go buy some CD's and check out the rest of the city. My buddy and I came upon a Museum of Science with two people out fron handing tickets for a free tour. We were pumped!
We got inside and were told to sit down and wait in the waiting area, a new tour would embark briefly. My buddy looks around and sees pictures of L Ron and his books for sale, then we realize what is about to happen. WE get up to leave and the clerks inside block the entrance and tell us we must stay for the tour. I started to get feisty so they let us through the door (I'm a big guy and they were tiny - it helped in this case). I couldn't get over how crazy it was they tried to keep us there against our will.
Looking back I wish I would've had stayed to see what their tour was all about.
Oh well!
