NO WE DON"T BELIEVE IN THIS!
IT"S A STORY.
Do you believe every story you hear?
You have obviously "bought" this one and that's the intended idea. That's exactly what you are supposed to believe, so another religion can be ridiculed and degraded via media, TV cartoons and bogus web sites.
Not that it actually has any real effect on Scientology (yawn). We are doing just fine thanks.
Just for the record ,not that you particularly care about the facts,
here's an accurate description of what Scientology is about:
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"
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.
Suggest you stay well away from it. It's not for people like you.
(The word "moron" come to mind but I will restrain myself.)

I'm not so sure anymore. I once tried to learn more about it, but couldn't get anywhere. I kind of doubt that they all believe in this little alien. It's possible that they have some very good ... um ... principles or whatever. I know there was quite a furor over the silent birth thing, but if you heard it explained in full, it made more sense. I'd still yell MY fool head off, though.

U am not a sciencetol*** but the truth is respect other people belief. If they believe in what ever they do believe just respect them. I am a christian and proud to be one. So I respect each and everyone religions. If you think their crap or morons. they think the same to you, so peace and lets be one happy people on earth with different religion. Jesus was having 12 disciples and when he died each and disciples went to teach people and it is where different religion start. each one of them teach different way I believe. Respect others then they will respect yours.

It puzzles me as well. I have spent some time in Clearwater around the "church" and all I can say is they are supremely scary.
Unquestionably a cult. And yet, some seemingly intelligent people sign on. I just don't get it. Maybe not morons, but automotons for sure.

I think its for extremely wealthy people, who's deepest mental process would be making the most difficult decision of which mirror to look in next. It's for superficial people who want to pretend to be spiritual without actually having to learn anything, other than watching returns of Star Trek.

I don't think it would be fair to make a character judgement of all Scientologists on so little information.
