Scientology Religion

The Scientology religion was founded by American author and humanitarian L. Ron Hubbard. The first Church of Scientology was formed by Scientologists in Los Angeles in 1954. Today the religion spans the globe with more than 9,000 Churches, Missions and affiliated groups in 165 countries.

The word Scientology is taken from the Latin word scio, which means “knowing in the fullest meaning of the word,” and the Greek word logos, meaning “study of.” It literally means “knowing how to know.”

Scientology holds that Man is an immortal spiritual being. His experience extends well beyond a single lifetime. His capabilities are unlimited, even if not presently realized. He is basically good, and his spiritual salvation depends upon himself and his fellows and his attainment of brotherhood with the universe.

L. Ron Hubbard discovered that a person is neither a body nor a mind but is a spiritual being, independent of both. An individual discovers for himself that Scientology works by applying its principles and observing or experiencing the results. The ultimate goal of Scientology is true spiritual enlightenment and freedom for the individual.

Comedy Gold: Anonymous, Homosexuals and Scientology


Just this morning I was laughing hard when I saw an old flier of Anonymous. They really try to recruit the LBGT scene for their criminal purposes!

Not short of lies and the usual "free interpretation" of Scientology texts, the flier states: "Homosexuals are Dangerous?!? ... We need your help!". LOL!

Well, what does Scientology say about Scientology and Homosexuality? Here is a great one about that: http://www.religioustolerance.org/hom_scie.htm

A little teaser:

"We Scientologists read this at the beginning of every Sunday service in every Scientology organization across the world: 'Nothing in Dianetics and Scientology is true for you unless you have observed it and it is true according to your observation. That is all'."

"... What's more, Scientology has the most iron-clad, non-discriminatory policy I've ever come across regarding sexual orientation. Have there been abuses of this policy by people in the church who are ignorant of it, or who were raised in the Midwest? (Sorry, bad joke.) Yes! Of course! I mean, what planet are you living on? But whenever I have personally written reports on policy violations to church management, my reports were acknowledged and the offenders were untimately [sic] corrected. That's more than I can say for our U.S. government's record handling civil rights abuses of gays."
