Lafayette Ronald Hubbard, author of pulp fiction/science fiction/fantasy books, created a fantasy called Scientology. Religion/crazy cult?

He has been called a liar, charlatan, and mentally unstable. He was sued for fraud. Some/many of his statements about his life have been refuted and labeled fictitious. The "Church" disputes any suggestion that he lied about anything and the members revere him. His fantasy creation has separated families, damaged reputations, harmed people.  Was he a good man or a very clever con artist who scammed susceptible/gullible people? Leah Remini has a series currently about her experiences with Scientology. Have you watched it yet?
