Scientology Expose, Going Clear on HBO
In my 20s I was in a cult. Luckily I pulled out of it, but it took a number of years after leaving, to sort everything out.
HBO is showing a documentary on the Church of Scientology.
I highly recommend watching:

Ay Caramba! I didn't know Bart Simpson was a Scientologist.

Also I finally understood the source of the name 'sea org'.

Seem to recall some rumor that Hubbard made a bet, he could start a religion and make money with it.
