Answer 2

This should answer both questions for you :

Scientology is an applied religious philosophy. When I say "applied" I mean you actually use it in your life to change or improve existing conditions. This is different from a religious practice. All religions if you learn about them have a basic philosphy, but they also have certain dogma, rituals and observances, and a certain faith or belief is required. There is nothing wrong with this, but Scientology is not that kind of religion. It does not intrude on anyones faiths of beliefs particularly in the area of God , the Supreme Being, or the Infinite. This area is left totally up to the indivdual, which is why you can be a practicing Jew,for example and still use and apply the priniciples of Scientology in your life. It does not conflict. If anything it will enhance your understanding of your chosen religious practice.
You can have no specific religious beliefs and still benefit from using it.
And it is only true for you according to your own observation and experience with it.
It is a non denominational religion . The dictionary definition that applies:
Religion: The spiritual or emotional attitude of one who recognises the existence of superhuman power or powers.

The most basic principle of Scientology is that YOU are your own immortal soul, that this is not a "thing" you HAVE but what YOU actually are.
The whole purpose of Scientology is to increase an individual's understanding and awareness of himself. And thereby his native abilities .
When you do this the sphere and zone of his positive influence increases and moves outward into his life, his family ,his friends, his groups and mankind which he is part of.

How this result is achieved is the "technology" of Scientology, which was developed by L.Ron Hubbard after his extensive research and the discoveries he made, about the human spirit. The basic religious philosophy and knowledge of Scientology is very old, going back 10,000 years at least to the Veda or Vedic Hymns from the East. The developement of the technology is new.
He completed his research before his death in 1986 and left all of his results and copyrights
to the Church of Scientology along with most of his considerable personal estate., when he died.

He published a book in 1951 to communicate the basic principles he discovered called: " Scientology The Fundementals of Thought"
He documented all of his findings and developments fully in his published books , recorded lectures and bulletins. This is a vast body of work.
There are currently over 8 million Scientologists in more that 150 countries world wide. However we are a new religion, only 53 years old.
The true story of Scientology as a religion goes like this:
1. A philosopher developes a philosophy about life and death.
2. People find it interesting.
3. People find it works.
4. People pass it along to others.
5. It grows.

Answer 3

Scientology is basically science fiction that got out of control and turned into a religion/cult.thats my take on it, but if you want the most generally accepted impression of scientology here goes nothin.
Scientology is an extensive system of beliefs and practices created by American author L. Ron Hubbard in 1952 as a self-help philosophy, an outgrowth of his earlier self-help system, Dianetics. Now described as an "applied religious philosophy," Scientology was at first entirely secular. Hubbard began to characterize Scientology as a religion as early as 1953, and by 1960 he had redefined it as a "religion by its basic tenets".[1] Scientology claims to offer an exact methodology to help individuals achieve awareness of their spiritual existence across many lifetimes and to, simultaneously, become more effective in the physical world. According to the Church of Scientology, Scientology's ultimate goal is to "rehabilitate" the thetan (roughly equivalent to the soul) to regain its native state of "total freedom."
Scientolgy has also been made fun of on southpark in the " hiding in the closet" episode.

Answer 4

IT is not Ron L Hubbard, its L. Ron Hubbard.

That should help you search on the internet. It is quite interesting to read about. Even on their official website you can read a life history of him.

Hopefully you are grounded in your own faith as you read this, because it is quite frankly against the bible, although it does list God as important items in your life on a scale of 1-10 God at least makes the list and gets a 10. Self gets the number one spot and that should help you understand this style of life more than anything else they write.

Answer 5

Actually thats L.Ron Hubbard. He is the writer who researched the various procedures that the brought together into courses back in the 1950's. Back then you couldnt help people get their life straight unless you were a doctor or a priest

Answer 6

Lunacy

Answer 7

Answer 8
