Scientology believes man to be basically good, not evil. It is man’s experiences that have led him to commit evil deeds, not his nature. Often, he mistakenly seeks to solve his problems by considering only his own interests, which then causes trouble for both himself and others. Scientology believes that man advances to the degree he preserves his spiritual integrity and values, and remains honest and decent. Indeed, he deteriorates to the degree he abandons these qualities.
I found out with Scientology that I am not as bad as I thought I was.

The science of life that answers the eternal unanswered questions such what or who we are , where we came from and where we might be going. It has been presented to the world since the early 1950s by one of the world's greatest geniuses, L Ron Hubbard.
Unfortunately the failed Earth natives to whom this was presented to , turned out to be so immersed in their own superstitions, egotisms and prejudices that they managed to trash the work that what offered to them on a silver platter.
The wisdom of the scientology subject will probably not be realized by the current primitives who inhabit the Earth anymore than would the culture of the dark ages admit the tenets of 21st century science.
Hopefully in a few generations , humankind, if it survives its self destructive period ,will evolve from its infantile barbaric stage and the generations living then will realize what they have gotten handed to them. Hence most of the work of current officers of Scientology is concerned with preserving the materials for those future generations.
The simplest meaning for the word Scientology would be THE TRUTH ABOUT LIFE.

A dangerous and large organization claiming to be devoted to the practice of the new age religion, Scientology. The church was founded by science fiction writer Lafayette Ronald Hubbard as a method of quickly attaining massive amounts of wealth through "self-help" book sales such as 'Dianetics', and fees for providing "auditing" courses to remove "engrams"-the thousands of restless alien spirits that cause all the strive on Earth. In reality, this auditing appears to be methods of indoctrinating sessions of hypnosis, often proclaimed brainwashing by critics(though not completely without justification as behavioral modification techniques are known to be present)
Currently the Church is headed by David Miscavige and keeps a headquarters, the Church of Scientology International, in Los Angeles, California.
It is infamous for it's controversial actions, some of which are:
•The Fair Game policy, a highly aggressive policy of the church which allows members to take whatever actions necessary to silence any and all critics(dubbed Suppressive Persons) of the church and its practices. This is commonly implemented utilizing the legal system to harass individuals into submission with barrages of frivolous lawsuits, false criminal charges, and any other means to demoralize the potential source of bad PR.
•Numerous deaths related to the Church and its practices;
Cases of suicidal depression, criminal neglect such as the case of Lisa McPherson, and countless mysterious deaths that point to the church have been recorded. A full list of Scientology related deaths can be seen at http://www.whyaretheydead.net/
•Disconnection, a type of religious shunning in which a scientologist is required to break all ties and communication with friends and family members that are possibly harmful to the PR of the church.
•The extreme opposition to psychiatry, sometimes to the point of denying members of gravely needed mental help.
So I talked to this guy that said he was member of scientology, he said that maybe my leukemia was all in my head. That Scientology could cure me of what is really just a psychosomatic disorder. How come doctors let people die when Scientology, Church of, is there to help?

The guy who repeatedly calls and emails you to come to Dianetics office to take a personality test. Really, it's just another way to convince you to buy more scientology crap.
Jon: "I honestly don't want to be a scientologist."
Greg: "Ha, HA, HA, ha...I knew you would say that.That's why I want you to purchase this workbook from Ron, it explains exactly how you are feeling right now."
Jon: "Tom Cruise is gay."
Greg: "NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!"
Jon: "Ha, got rid of that scientology salesman."

the act of smoking marijuana in an automobile while driving. derived from the term "cruise", which then led to "tom cruise", and eventually became "Practicing Scientology"
hey man, I got a philly, some weed, and a quarter tank of gas. wanna start practicing scientology?
A corporation masquerading as a religion and only succeeding as a cult; a major bringer of lulz unless they're killing off members of their congregation or disconnecting families. Lovers of free speech unless the free speech is being used against them, in which case they will stalk you and sue your ass faster than a fat kid pissed at McDonalds. Run by a midget who is BFF with Tom Cruise. Exists to give members of Chanology something to do other than sit around and fap all day. Their religion runs towards asking for moar monies and making fields of wildflowers for Tom Cruise to run through.
Also, they hate the gays.
The Church of Scientology defines scientology as "the study of truth." The rest of the world defines them as masters of the footbullet.
