::Thanks. It does not go too much into doctrine, as how it operates says more about what it effective believes than the spiritual ethos of Hubbard's science fiction, which, consistent with his stated motive (according to two sources) serves as a means to an end, that of Scientology's gain of possessions and power. The religious doctrine of Scientology is sufficiently outlandish that little should need to be said on it, and the Further Reading section has links which pertain to that. Any benefit from that program is due to the use of Biblical principals, primarily that of being able to talk at debt to someone and get some counsel, and gain a perfect condition, but in Scientology that comes at ever increasing prices, (I think Christian counselors who charge 80-100 bucks an hours for their "ministry" are also wrong), and the clear condition. Once hooked, the Scientology client begins an ever increasing series of "auditing" sessions and courses in order to achieve a "clear" state, which is not moral heart purity and Christ-likeness, but a psychological goal, and which "carrot" Scientology continually keeps just out of reach of the client in order to get more money, and that which it purchases. Seeing as that is the goal of Scientology, it is not wonder the Hubbard directed his workers to go after celebrities. And given the suppression (or lack) of conscience which is typically required of those employed by Hollywood, and the focus upon personal attainment in Scientology, as well as the minimal requirements for humility, contrition and moral repentance, it is no wonder they are attracted to Scientology, and the lifestyle it supports.
It is manifestly evident that, in heart as well as in doctrine, Scientology is antithetical to Christ. Relatively few former Scientologists seem to come to repentance and faith in the Lord Jesus, but here is quite a testimony, praise be to God. http://www.christianindex.org/1468.article http://www.meetjesus.co.uk/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=3:from-scientology-t [[User:Daniel1212|Daniel1212]] 19:44, 30 October 2009 (EDT)
