Hail Xenu!

If you want to believe we descended from space aliens 75 million years ago, it's your right. But don't say you weren't warned.

I'm a scientologist and proud to be able to stand in front of such comments that were posted before me.

When you say you don't want to believe the bad things said about it... I would tell you something.

There is nothing like knowing something so cold you don't even mess with comments!

I mean, when first man came up with the idea the earth wasn't flat but more rounded up as a shape, a lot of thing could have shake his certainty about his idea EXCEPT if that man had risen enough in space and SEE that it was round!

Then whatever the comments would have had no effect on him... he would have seen.

Same with scientology: When I see a child that have a hard time at school now having success in class (when I didn't mention the word scientolgy - just helping him out with the very things we learn in scientology), well I SEE the results and no one can say otherwise!

Reading books on the subject is vital. Helping out around as well as yourself with the tools you learn in them is AS VITAL as you will then SEE what the results are.

PS: For those who still wants to criticize scientology, (as there are fewer and fewer) ... well, for now we are dealing with people who wants to help us build a better society. We'll deal with you later on!

It is nice to know that you too are drawn towards Scientology.

I happen to know Scientology for many years now and I can tell you frankly that it is the best thing that has happened to my life.

Scientology began with L Ron Hubbard’s Dianetics in 1949. It is the only book to have become a New York Times best-seller in 2 different decades-1950s and 1980s, in addition to being a perennial best-seller. This book is basically about Auditing, the fundamental Scientology technique for handling incidents of emotional and physical pain in a person’s past (technically called engrams). As L. Ron Hubbard audited more and more people, he noticed that as these incidents of physical and emotional pain in a person’s past are effectively handled and erased through auditing process, the person:
1. Becomes more intelligent
2. Becomes saner
3. Becomes better able to handle his environment.
4. The amnesia on time-track becomes to diminish, i.e., the person is able to recall earlier incidents in his life. The earliest incident you are able to recall in your life is, may be, 1.5-2 years. Few people are able to recall earlier. Yet, you were alive earlier!

As people were thus audited, they were able to recall their pre-natal life. This led LRH to hypothise that memory is a property of the cells, since in intra-uterine life brain is not fully formed.

As the process went ahead, people were eventually able to recall their past lives. That was the birth of Scientology, because it indicated that there must be something that survives death and carries on to next life. This something is called soul in traditional religion and theta body in Scientology.

Scientology brings to humanities the exactitude of science (as LRH put it). By actual demographic studies, it has become the fastest growing religion in the history of mankind. It has come a long way sine its early beginning. Today you can actually go to an advanced Scientology organization and walk on the “bridge” to freedom. The decision is yours. The choice is yours.


“I do not sing what I believe, I only give them fact.
If they believe quite otherwise, it still will have impact.
For truth is truth and if they then decide to live with lies,
It’s their choice not mine, my friend, they are free to fantasize.”
--- L. Ron Hubbard

“Get on the road to freedom,
Help us fee all mankind,
The pain and all the sorrow,
Are only in your mind.”
---L. Ron Hubbard

Good luck and best wishes!

You can read and watch books and DVDs at any church. There is no reason that you could not buy books from a Church or ever find a copy in a second hand shop.

The books that would be good to read would be Scientology: A New Slant on Life and Fundamentals of Thought.

There is also a whole range of books on Study Skills which would help you do well in your studies.

There could be any number of reasons you are drawn to Scientology. The best way to find out is to read books. Until you are 18 or have your parents permission you cannot work at the Church.

There are Scientology Volunteer Ministers that go out from each Church to community fairs, markets, book shows and other venues. Depending on where you are you could go to one of these to see what they do.

Only 14? Well, they know what it takes to mislead you into a religious cult. And that's all it is, just a cult. A satanic cult!

Young lady, you are getting into something that's sounds good, but the day someone actually tells you what the Word of God does say, you will be thinking they are lying to you.

Run away from it! Stay away from it! Have NOTHING to do with it!

I'll be praying for you.

I'm hoping this affinity for Scientology comes from reading
some basic books or material about it.

If that's the case then like me it probably makes sense to you and communicates things that you already felt were true.

If it's true for you then it's true for you, according to your own observation and experience, no matter what other
people say about it..... good or bad.
That's personal integrity.

It promises to fix everything in your life. It will run your life for you and you wont have to think anymore. Some people find that comforting. I'm assuming this is a joke but if not please visit these websites.

This personal account is particulary enlightening.

Also please check out this page. The last two interviews are with teenagers that managed to escape scientology. Please watch these interviews (Tanya and Vivien) in full before you think about joining this cult.

You should read about it before you decide to join it. Plus you have to pay a ton of money to be in it. Any religion that forces you to pay money to reach a higher status is not a religion.

You are drawn to it because they are demons working on you to try to lead you away from the knowledge and truth about Jesus Christ. If demons can lead you away from the truth, they can bring you into all kinds of bondages and traps for you life with false religions. It's a trap.
