It helps when all of your members sue and stalk IRS agents.
It is against the rules for a Scientologist to contact the police about a crime that another Scientologist has committed. If you do you will be kicked out and declared a suppressive person.
L Ron Hubbard targeted celebrities and opinion makers in communities to enable the "rapid dissemination" of Scientology. Wiki page on "Project Celebrity". They self shelter so that they aren't exposed to entheta (upsetting stuff).
