What's your take on Scientology?
It just came up, as in you mean to say it's recent? Time is of no factor for it to be "established".

If you mean it just randomly popped up out of the blue, then sorry to say but you can give the same argument for Christianity. A long, long time ago, someone or a group of someones created the idea of it, hence, it just came up also.

My take on scientology is that it seems much like a pyramid-scheme that is not very well disguised. I'd say it is both a religion and possibly a cult, but then again, I'd say the exact same thing for Christianity (minus the pyramid-scheme, unless a certain church or some sub-group is one).
