Does money from Elvis fans go to Scientology?

How much money does Scientology extract from the millions left behind by Elvis and his ever-growing trust left to his only heir Lisa Marie Presley?

No one knows for sure, but there have been persistent rumors that folks may occupy a seat or two on the Presley Trust, who are friendly with the controversial church, which has been called a "cult."

Fox News wonders just how much money from Elvis fans finds its way into the coffers of Scientology.

Ironically, Elvis himself reportedly didn't like Scientology.

According to a close associate "The King" once said, "F - - - those people! There's no way I'll ever get involved with that son-of-a-bitchin' group. All they want is my money."

An old Elvis crony said, "He'd s - - t a brick to see how far Lisa Marie's gotten into it."

Would Elvis fans " s - - t a brick" to learn that money spent at Graceland, or on Elvis mementos and re-released music, might just be finding its way to "that son-of-a-bitchin' group"?
