The Scientologist

I had lunch with a liberal Catholic gentleman of a man whose former Catholic wife left him to pursue her Scientology ambitions. He described it as a pyramid scheme that sucks the family's finances. You have to pay to attend the Sunday services, which are billed as "courses". Fortunately she is not allowed to bring the children to them without his permission. Nonetheless, a very sad situation that I would say may have occurred while the husband was working too much and not noticing slight changes at home or nipping them in the bud. After all, men like peace at home so much they are liable to let things go on for much too long before noticing and taking action.
