Scientology is international. The Scientology religion has over 11,000 churches, missions and groups all over the world.
I think they keep them in their space ships
Scientology has not been banned from Germany, as they have 5 Churches upcoming in the next year. Their help has been gladly appreciated by everyone in Germany.
Like most religions, Scientology has churches. There are more than 11'000 churches, missions and groups around the world. Scientology is not a faith based religion, but an applied religious philosophy. It offers tools that can be applied in life. No one is asked to believe, but to try the tools and see if they work for him, based on his own personal observations. Scientology churches are not a place where people go to worship. They are places where Scientologists can go to study and apply these tools to improve their potential in life.
There are, as of 19 September 2015, no Scientology churches in Egypt. The closest ones would be in Israel. Egypt has a very limited freedom of religion, which really only applies to Islam, Christianity, and Judaism. Some religions like Baha'i and Atheism (which would be a religious designation) are barely protected by the state. It is doubtful if Scientology would be permitted in Egypt in the near future.
There is no reason to compare Scientology with Christianity. The only thing they have in common is their religious nature and the presence of churches. All the rest is different. Christianity is a faith based religion were members are asked to pray and worship God . Scientology is an applied religious philosophy and it is not based on faith and beliefs. Scientology has more in common with Mahayana Buddhism. Members of the Scientology religion don't go to church to pray, but to study tools that they can apply in life to improve their skills and abilities, as well as the ability of helping others. There is no reason why a Christian could not study Scientology and use it in his life. Scientology is all-denominational and no one is required to change his personal beliefs in regards to God or Gods while studying in their churches. There can be a Christian who in the morning goes to the Sunday service in his Christian church, and in the evening goes into a Scientology church to to a course on "how to handle negative people" or "how to improve communication". They are two completely separate subjects.
There are churches called 'First church of Jesus Christ Scientist'. These are connected with what is known as Christian Science. Then there is also what is known as Scientology.
Yes, many children do and there are no age restrictions as to who may participate in Scientology auditing or training. Some Scientology Churches conduct courses and study programs specifically designed for young people. Children below the age of majority must first obtain written consent from their parents or guardian to participate in Scientology services. Like adherents of other religions, Scientologists are very proud when their children join them in the practice of their religion.
Scientology is Fake.
Scientology believes that any illness can be cured using the mind. They do not believe in medicine. Scientology can be very dangerous because, if you have a deadly ubt curable sickness, they would refuse to take medicine or get an actual treatment.
Religious Technology Center (RTC) is a nonprofit religious organization formed in 1982 to preserve, maintain and protect the Scientology religion and is a Church of the Scientology religion. Religious Technology Center holds the ultimate ecclesiastical authority regarding the standard and pure application of L. Ron Hubbard's religious technologies. RTC is not part of the management structure of the Church and is not involved in its day-to-day affairs. RTC holds the Dianetics and Scientology trademarks and service marks, which Founder L. Ron Hubbard donated to RTC in 1982. Earlier, Mr. Hubbard himself oversaw the practice of the religion and registered as trade and service marks many of the religion's identifying words and symbols, such as "Dianetics" and "Scientology." These registered marks provided a legal mechanism for ensuring that Scientology religious technologies are ministered in exact accordance with the scripture and not altered by misappropriation or improper use. They also provide a legal mechanism to prevent anyone from offering some altered or inauthentic version of Dianetics and Scientology and representing it as the real technology. RTC grants the Church of Scientology International (CSI), the mother church of the Scientology religion, the right to use the trademarks and to license their use to all other Scientology Churches. While CSI serves as the mother church and is responsible for the overall ecclesiastical management, dissemination, propagation and defense of the Scientology religion and the various Scientology Churches, Religious Technology Center serves as the ultimate protector of the religion. While each Scientology organization and, indeed, every Scientologist is expected to enforce the standard application of Scientology scripture, RTC is the final arbiter of orthodoxy. Mr. David Miscavige is the Chairman of the Board, RTC.
You have to take a class for Scientology.
