International Religious Freedom Day

Last updated on: October 24, 2017 at 5:05 am By ScientologyBeliefs

An article on International Religious Freedom Day (today) on the new Scientology Religion website bears repeating. Freedom of religion or belief may well be the most important of all human rights. It encompasses freedom of conscience–the freedom to have one’s own thoughts and beliefs, to maintain one’s own personal integrity, one’s individuality, to see and conclude based on one’s own viewpoint. This 1998 International Religious Freedom Act extends from the importance granted this right by our Founding Fathers as expressed in the First... Read more

Atlanta Religious Leader Speaks About Scientology Humanitarian Programs

Last updated on: October 24, 2017 at 5:05 am By ScientologyBeliefs

At the grand opening of the Church of Scientology Atlanta earlier this year, I found the speech by Rev. Dr. James Milner particularly moving, especially when he described marching with Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. “My thirst for freedom is born from these experiences,” he said. “Drugs are the almighty oppressor today. They cause people to lose their humanity. Then addiction leads to deprivation, which brings about desperation. The crime rate goes up. The educational levels drop and the family... Read more

Freedom Magazine Exposé on ECT

Last updated on: October 24, 2017 at 5:05 am By ScientologyBeliefs

Many people think the practice of ECT is a thing of the past. Would that it were. This month’s Freedom Magazine exposes gross abuses in the psychiatric industry and the FDA’s negligence in failing to enforce their own regulations requiring ECT machine manufacturers to undertake clinical trials. And here’s something I was very surprised to read: “Today, some 200,000 Americans undergo ECT treatments each year, resulting in an estimated $1.8 billion in revenue. The unapproved, so-called “off-label” use of ECT among children—that is,... Read more

Why Religions Should Work Together

Last updated on: October 24, 2017 at 5:05 am By ScientologyBeliefs

Among the most basic principles of the Church of Scientology are the belief that all men and woman have the right to practice their beliefs as they see fit. It is part of the Creed of the Church of Scientology: “That all men have inalienable rights to their own religious practices and their performance.” In “Religious Influence in Society,” an essay published in the 1970s, Scientology Founder L. Ron Hubbard wrote: “Religion is the first sense of community. Your sense of community occurs... Read more

The Incomparable Chick Corea

Last updated on: October 24, 2017 at 5:05 am By ScientologyBeliefs

An article in the Tampa Bay Times pays fitting tribute to Chick Corea, winner of 22 Grammy Awards, according to the Times’ Jay Cridlin, and a Scientologist for more than 40 years. The whole article is worth reading. I’m sharing a section that relates to Chick as a Scientologist: “From his childhood growing up outside Boston, he was a piano prodigy, learning the trade from his father, a Dixieland trumpeter, and later studying, briefly, at Columbia and Juilliard. During the 1960s he... Read more
