Scientology

Scientology is a religion founded by science fiction writer L. Ron Hubbard in the 1950s. It teaches that humans are spiritual beings (thetans) who are distinct from their minds and bodies. Scientologists believe that individuals can achieve spiritual freedom and enlightenment through a process called auditing, which involves addressing past traumas (or "engrams") in order to become a "Clear." The religion has been controversial due to its secretive nature, aggressive tactics against critics, and its high financial costs. Scientology teaches that through its teachings, individuals can overcome the negative influences of their past and reach their highest potential.

​

And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth.  Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen.

-Matthew 28:18-20
