Scientology is essentially a pseudo-scientific cult created by a science fiction writer Ron L Hubard in the 1950s.

Basically you go to 'org' get some 'auditing' to clear you of engrams and bad thetans, and learn to think just like Hubbard wanted them to.

Essentially some wierd theories:

Xenu - we are planted here by ancient aliens then exploded all over the planet. We have many 'thetans' inside us from that explosion.

Engrams - when we are unconscience we are susceptible to getting engrams which are engrams, these cause misunderstandings and can lead to an unhappy life.

Auditing - auditing can save you!!!!! (errmm yeah ok) This is where they practise brainwashing, indoctrination & physcology dependancies, but because they went through the same process they don't notice this.

Narconon purification - All drugs are stored in fats, and can be released decades latter from these fat cells. Superdoses of vitamins and sweatboxes apparantly sweat all the drugs out.

Suppresive people - these people are evil thetans who don't want mankind to succeed and enjoy scientology - they do it on purpose even though they know scientology is the truth.

Fair game - hounding critics in an often illegal way, with no boundaries simply because they spoke out against scientology.

Disconnection - in relation to SPs, you should seperate from any friends or family that are negative towards scientology and your involvement with it.

Hubbard made the claim that clears would have perfect memories and would never get ill.

Hard Sell - looking for particular needy people who have social issues that only scientology can save. Then performing 'personality tests' on them, which prove scientology can help them - well theres a surprise.

Outrageous Pricing - as it was to make a quick buck it comes at no surprise that people are expect to spend fortunes on the wonders that are scientology, even if they have to sell their house, get a loan, max out credit cards, or slave themselves to the CofScientology.

Here are just a few sites I found in a quick search on scientology:

Scientology is referred to as "the religion of all religions." It is the study of the physical universe verses the spiritual universe and has scientific based answers that actually work to help one live a better life. I've been in Scientology since 1984 and have reaped the rewards of a very happy marriage, a career that I love, good health and the ability to help others. Scientology also teaches you to THINK FOR YOURSELF. There are others out there who don't wish anyone to get better or to do better, such as those who actively put down another's religious beliefs and even give references to negative websites that only use lies to turn someone against something that will help them. Scientology helps you to actually know the difference between truth and lies and the difference between those who are helpful and those who wish harm. There is a book called, "What is Scientology" by L. Ron Hubbard that answers every question you might have on the subject. I strongly suggest you read it and then think for yourself. It will change your life for the better.

It is like a computer, as it is treated today. If you understand it and know how to use it, it makes your life much easier and more productive. If it is not understood, it is cussed at, abused, and even feared.
It is easy to attack Tom Cruise, not so easy to achieve his success rate. Anyone being that successful and still happy is very rare to find.
Scientology gives one the ability to leave the group of whiners by becoming a winner. It teaches responsibility for your actions, not placing blame on life or others.
Don’t talk the talk unless you can walk the walk.
