86. Scientology By Jack Nation, Pastor
A brief summary of information on the church of scientology.
http://www.cedarnet.org/jnation/book/bk19-16.html
Part XVI
SCIENTOLOGY by Jack Nation, ThM, Pastor (ret.) BEGAN
: In 1954. Scientology is a religious movement based on the teachings of the American writer and visionary L. Ron Hubbard. Hubbard won prominence with his book "Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health" (1950), in which he outlined a form of therapy for curing emotional and psychosomatic illnesses and enhancing life. WORLDWIDE MEMBERSHIP CHURCH GOVERNMENT : A tight knit circle of committed adherents, with numerous "auditors" and "counselors" to assure understanding and practice of Scientology's secrets of the "Thetan" and "Dianetics." MAJOR DOCTRINAL EMPHASIS : Subjects were trained by therapists called "auditors", to increase the power of the conscious mind and subdue the influence of "engrams", which are painful impressions of past experiences that confuse the "reactive", or unconscious, mind. Hubbard's work took on a religious dimension with the publication of Science of Survival (1951), which explained the religious philosophy of Scientology. Scientology teaches that human beings are immortal spirits called Thetans, which is derived from the Greek word theta, meaning life. It also practices a ritual known as auditing. A device called an "E-meter" is used to guide individuals during auditing and help them to locate precise areas of spiritual difficulty.

in Washington The Church of Scientology has taken its long-running battle against the distribution of its material on internet sites - especially sites critical of the church - to Google, one of the most popular search sites on the internet. Google catalogues more than two billion pages on the internet, but cyber civil libertarians cried foul when the site removed links to a website called Operation Clambake, due to a legal challenge from the Church of Scientology. The Operation Clambake site portrays the church as a money-hungry cult. Google fights back While Google complied with the church's request, it also quietly began to defend its freedom to link. Now, the church's tactics might have backfired, because when the search site receives a request to remove a link, it also forwards a copy of the legal request to a civil liberties site called chillingeffects.org. Google still links to Operation Clambake's homepage and Google's search results are based in part on links to a site.

Scientology Gives Believers a Map on the Road to Self-fulfillment
by Cathy Norman L. Ron Hubbard, the founder of Scientology, once wrote: "When a culture has fallen totally away from spiritual pursuits into materialism, one must begin by demonstrating they are each a soul, not a material animal. From this realization of their own religious nature, individuals can again come to an awareness of God and become more themselves." In Scientology, we have no dogma about God. Nor do we ask you to take our teachings on faith. Instead, we start by showing you things about your spiritual nature, yourself, others and the world around you. From there you begin your road to truth and relationship with the Ultimate. At an early age, Hubbard began to search for a means by which man could discover his true nature and realize his potential. For more than 30 years, he consulted the great religious works of the East and Greece and Rome, the philosophical works of Hegel and Kant, the psychological theories of Sigmund Freud, and the physical sciences. He also examined the beliefs and rites of primitive cultures, primarily firsthand. In May 1950, Hubbard published his initial findings in

http://www.cnn.com/US/9508/scientology/
Church of Scientology protects secrets on the Internet
August 26, 1995 Two weeks ago, Arnie Lerma's home office was raided by U.S. Marshal's accompanied by lawyers and officials from the Church of Scientology. While the marshal's stood by, Lermas' computer was dismantled and carried away. Last week in Colorado Springs, the same thing happened at the headquarters of Factnet, which calls itself an information storehouse for information on cults, including Scientology. Scientologists say the unpublished writings of church founder L. Ron Hubbard, called "advanced technology" could be misunderstood by people who have not gone through the extensive series of Scientology courses that help church members achieve "higher consciousness." Some members pay little or work in return for the courses while others reportedly pay hundreds of thousands of dollars. "You have to go up certain levels in Scientology in spiritual awareness," says Goodman, "and then you're ready to attain that knowledge and that's the way it works and we're trying to protect that." Lerma sent a copy of the secrets to the Washington Post, which also got copies from the California court case. The Post article described a church doctrine which includes a galactic federation ruled by a being named Zenu. Zenu, according to the Post, solved an overpopulation problem 75 million years ago by transporting excess people to the Earth.

Group that once criticized Scientologists now owned by one
December 19, 1996
Web posted at: 8:00 a.m. EST From Correspondent Dan Knapp SAN FRANCISCO (CNN) At one time, the Cult Awareness Network took as many as 16,000 telephone calls a year in an effort to help anxious families worried about sons or daughters involved with unconventional religions. But last month, after 20 years of operation, the Cult Awareness Network closed its doors, forced into bankruptcy after losing a costly lawsuit to the church of Scientology. Now the phones are ringing again but this time there's a good chance they'll be answered by a Scientologist. In a bizarre twist of fortune, the organization that was once the most vocal critic of Scientology is now owned by a member of the controversial church. "I think this is going to be devastating," said Cynthia Kisser , former director of the Cult Awareness Network. "People are going to believe they're going to talk to an organization that's going to help and understand them in their time of crisis, and in fact, it could be a pipeline of information directly to the group they're most afraid of." Since 1991, 50 lawsuits were filed against the Cult Awareness Network by people who were somehow connected with the Church of Scientology, said Kisser. Most were dismissed but one produced a judgment of nearly $2 million against the network.

What skills do parents need to have? What can be done to help a child who has learning difficulties Are there Scientology books or courses that present solution to behavior problems ? Do you have to put your child on drugs to handle problems he or she is having at school Why do children turn to drugs and violence How can parents establish strong enough relationships with their children that they will come to them when they are in trouble? And what can parents do to make sure their children gain the skill and judgment they will need to survive in the highly technological and often impersonal and uncaring civilization they are about to enter as young adults? At churches of Scientology around the world we have been helping parents with these and other similar questions for years. There are many Scientology books, articles and courses that provide effective solutions to these problems. Scientology is also well known for improving communication relationships , and raising standards of ethics and morality , all of which are vital for helping kids cope with the problems they face in life.

Germany Country Report on Human Rights Practices for 1998
Released by the Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights, and Labor, February 26, 1999. GERMANY The Federal Republic of Germany is a constitutional parliamentary democracy; citizens periodically choose their representatives in free and fair multiparty elections. The head of the Federal Government, the Chancellor, is elected by the lower house of Parliament. The powers of the Chancellor and of the Parliament are set forth in the Basic Law (Constitution). The 16 states enjoy significant autonomy, especially as concerns law enforcement and the courts, education, the environment, and social assistance. The judiciary is independent. Law enforcement is primarily a responsibility of state governments, and the police are organized at the state level. The jurisdiction of the Federal Criminal Office is limited to counterterrorism, international organized crime, especially narcotics trafficking, weapons smuggling, and currency counterfeiting. Police forces in general are well trained, disciplined, and mindful of citizens' rights, although there were instances of police abuse.
