The Self-Evident Truth of Scientology

Last updated on: September 16, 2021 at 2:13 pm   By ScientologyBeliefs

The Self-Evident Truth of Scientology, a blog by T. Riggs Eckelberry originally published on the STAND blog (Scientologists Taking Action Against Discrimination), is republished here with their permission. This blog on the self-evident truth of Scientology originally appeared on the STAND website on April 13, 2018. Becuse it is as true today as it was then, it bears repeating. “All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being... Read more

How Scientologists Appreciate David Miscavige

Last updated on: August 19, 2021 at 10:27 am   By ScientologyBeliefs

Here is a sampling of how Scientologists appreciate David Miscavige and his leadership in the Scientology religion. In a brief video on Mr. Miscavige’s website, www.davidmiscavige.org, Chuck White of Pasadena has this to say: “In almost every major city around the world, people can freely walk into the Church of Scientology and experience Scientology for what it is.” If they are having problems with communication, they may  “take a course on communications. Problem with relationships, take a course on relationships.... Read more

L. RON HUBBARD IN SOUTHERN AFRICA

Last updated on: June 4, 2021 at 5:22 pm   By ScientologyBeliefs

The Kind of Friend L. Ron Hubbard Has Been to Me

Last updated on: June 1, 2021 at 8:48 pm   By ScientologyBeliefs

L. Ron Hubbard, the founder of Scientology—the only major religion to have been founded in the 20th century—would have turned 110 this year. I’ve been reading, listening to and studying his works for some 40 years now. It has been one of my most intimate friendships, albeit with a person I have never actually met. I say “friendships” instead of “relationships” because I have been a grateful recipient of what have always amounted to warm and friendly communications from Ron—guiding,... Read more

What? Scientology?!

Last updated on: May 26, 2021 at 9:33 pm   By ScientologyBeliefs

What? Scientology?!–a blog by Rodger Clark originally posted on the STAND website (STAND is for “Scientologists Taking Action to End Discrimination”). Rodger wrote this a while ago but it is every bit as true today. Thought I’d share it. If you have ever read or watched some media panic piece on Scientology, you may have wondered why anyone in their right mind would study it. What? Scientology?! Which is why I occasionally have to deal with the freakouts and anxiety... Read more

Can Anyone Take a Scientology Extension Course?

Last updated on: May 19, 2021 at 8:21 pm   By ScientologyBeliefs

Tad Reeves, the “Scientology Parent,” answers a question from a Reddit user who wanted to know—can anyone take a Scientology Extension Course? The question she asked was: If I don’t live close to an org, is the Dianetics extension course a viable option? How far can you go with just the extension course? “Extension courses are positively a viable option,” says Reeves, “and are very strongly recommended. The entire philosophy of Dianetics and Scientology is contained in the basic books of the religion,... Read more

Scientology vs. Science Fiction

Last updated on: April 7, 2021 at 1:51 pm   By ScientologyBeliefs

Sharing a blog, “Scientology vs. Science Fiction,”  from the STAND League website written by Scientologist Wil Seabrook.  I was born in the South. There’s a kind of running joke about how someone in the South can insult you so politely you’re not even upset about it (if you even notice at all). Something along the lines of, “Bless your heart, have you gained weight? It looks so good on you I hardly noticed…” Uh, thank you, I think? That kind... Read more
