[edit] um....

we already have other articles that deal with this exact same subject, and we're discussing merging them anyway, so why do we need yet another one?? wikipediatrix 17:25, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

Sorry for the duplication, then. This article was created to be a parallel to the various other "Lists of notable converts" which exist for other faiths. However, if it is redundant to other articles, please feel free to delete it. John Carter 17:32, 21 May 2007 (UTC)
Besides that most notable Scientologists are converts to it, with a few exceptions. Steve Dufour 02:04, 22 May 2007 (UTC)
Scientology is a rare case where "people raised in it" might be of considerably more interest than a "converts to" list.--T. Anthony 05:09, 20 July 2007 (UTC)

Most Scientologists, notable or not, were not born into Scientology, the majority could be considered converts to it. 69.12.131.206 20:10, 6 June 2007 (UTC)
