It has been attacked, questioned and praised. Millions of people from all walks of life use it every day. It is growing at an incredible rate Everyone seems to have an opinion about it. Maybe it's time to find out for yourself what it really is.
Scientology isn't really a belief system, but rather a way to help you explore your existence and your relationship with yourself and others. While we do have a few core beliefs, they can be expressed rather easily. Here you can see a copy of the Creed of the Church which outlines those core beliefs.
Believe it or not, there are people who object to other people getting stronger or smarter or even happier. The abusive husband who wants to keep his wife under control, the woman who wants to keep her husband under her thumb, the drug dealer whose livelihood depends on people remaining addicted: these types of people do not like us. Our purpose is to help people lead better lives, and we are effective at it. We are attacked by those who do not want others to do well. These people comprise about 20% of the population and they make trouble for the other 80%.
We do. However, we do not dictate the beliefs of our members. Instead, we work with them to become more spiritually aware, which brings about a better understanding of God and relationship with Him, in keeping with their chosen religion.
Absolutely. As Scientology is not based on belief, but on practical answers to the problems of life, members of all faiths are welcome.
There are many free and inexpensive services in Scientology such as free consultations and Life Improvement Courses, which give answers to many of the things people are struggling with, such as difficulty getting along with others, marriage difficulties, problems with raising your children, knowing who you can trust and more. Some of the higher level services do ask for a higher donation to support our humanitarian objectives. We have programs to increase literacy, help people in disaster areas, educate children about the dangers of drugs, etc. As with any other church, these programs are supported by the donations of our members.

The Creed of the Church of Scientology was written by L. Ron Hubbard shortly after the Church was formed in Los Angeles on February 18, 1954. After Mr. Hubbard issued this creed from his office in Phoenix, Arizona, the Church of Scientology adopted it as its creed because it succinctly states what Scientologists believe. We of the Church believe That all men of whatever race, color or creed were created with equal rights. That all men have inalienable rights to their own religious practices and their performance. That all men have inalienable rights to their own lives. That all men have inalienable rights to their sanity. That all men have inalienable rights to their own defense. That all men have inalienable rights to conceive, choose, assist or support their own organizations, churches and governments. That all men have inalienable rights to think freely, to talk freely, to write freely their own opinions and to counter or utter or write upon the opinions of others. That all men have inalienable rights to the creation of their own kind. That the souls of men have the rights of men.
That the study of the mind and the healing of mentally caused ills should not be alienated from religion or condoned in nonreligious fields. And that no agency less than God has the power to suspend or set aside these rights, overtly or covertly. And we of the Church believe That man is basically good. That he is seeking to survive. That his survival depends upon himself and upon his fellows and his attainment of brotherhood with the Universe. And we of the Church believe that the laws of God forbid Man To destroy his own kind. To destroy the sanity of another. To destroy or enslave another’s soul. To destroy or reduce the survival of one’s companions or one’s group. And we of the Church believe That the spirit can be saved. And that the spirit alone may save or heal the body.
