Notice: Fredric Rice may have removed segments of the replies given to questions if they contained copyrighted materials. After a very short while, Scientology "experts" refused to answer questions and started cut-and-pasting copyrighted cult propaganda. Additionally I removed URLs in some of the replies, and left them in others. And it's also important to note that eventually the unfortunate "Greg Churilov" cultist was ejected from askme.com for his typical Scientological behavior.

FredricRice asked this question on 5/8/2000:

I'm not sure who to ask inside of Scientology and I'm not sure they would give me an answer even if I called upo and asked.

L. Ron Hubbard Jr. was disinherited by his daddy. Was that because he was gay or do you know if there was some other reason?

Thanks.

No, it was Quentin Hubbard who was believed to have been gay; he committed suicide. L. Ron Jr split with his father in the 1960s (apparently in a dispute over fees) and subsequently became a fierce critic of Ron Sr. As a result he was disinherited.

The average rating for this answer is 5.

You rated this answer a 5.

So they argued over fees and he tossed him out of his will? Interesting. I only found one document that covered the disinheriting but there wasn't any background on why. I'll try another search with "dispute" and "fees" and see if I can find more.

Thanks!
