Don’t Bypass Your Child (Part 2)

Last updated on: October 24, 2017 at 5:14 am By treeves

This is the second of two (perhaps more) posts on the subject of bypassing your children – and in this context, bypassing means to ignore their efforts to help or do work that is theirs, and instead doing it yourself. I realized after writing my last post on the topic that there is so much more that could be written on this, and so many other facets to the issue. The facet mainly covered in the first post was that the more... Read more

Don’t Bypass Your Children (Part 1)

Last updated on: October 24, 2017 at 5:14 am By treeves

There is one extremely key aspect of how Scientologists approach parenting which is beautifully depicted in the video for the free on-line Scientology course on Children, available here. Any law that applies to the behaviour of men and women also applies to children. It’s the simple fact that any law that applies to the behaviour of men and women also applies to children. It’s a datum that becomes more and more profound the more you think about it – and certainly the... Read more

Human Rights Day

Last updated on: October 24, 2017 at 5:14 am By rdahlquist

December 10 is the 63rd anniversary of the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights, and amazing document that lays out the basic rights to which every human being is entitled. Although many of these rights are common sense, it’s surprising how few people know them. And it is hard to insist on, defend or enforce something about which you are not certain. I’m posting this video in commemoration of this anniversary, as it is a clever, simple and engaging... Read more

What is Scientology’s System of Ethics?

Last updated on: October 24, 2017 at 5:14 am By scientologyb

The Scientology system of ethics is based wholly on reason. L. Ron Hubbard defined ethics as “reason and the contemplation of optimum survival.” He has also pointed out: “Dishonest conduct is non-survival. Anything is unreasonable or evil which brings about the destruction of individuals, groups, or inhibits the future of the race.” Ethics may be further defined as “the actions an individual takes on himself to ensure his continued survival across the dynamics.” It is a personal thing. When one is ethical, it... Read more

Last updated on: October 24, 2017 at 5:14 am By scientologyb

There are four main codes that Scientologists apply in life. One is the Auditor’s Code, which gives the basic rules an auditor must abide by to ensure excellent auditing results. Another is the Code of a Scientologist, guidelines which Scientologists agree to follow in order to achieve the aims of Scientology.

What are Scientology Congregational Services and Religious Ceremonies

Last updated on: October 24, 2017 at 5:14 am By scientologyb

Last updated on: October 24, 2017 at 5:14 am By scientologyb
