In what way does Scientology differ from other religions?
Nearly all religions share a belief in helping man live a better life.
In Scientology, this concept is expressed as one of the aims of the
Church, which is to achieve a world without insanity, war and crime.
While Scientology has much in common with other religions in this
regard, particularly in terms of its basic religious concepts and its
outreach into the community with social reform programs, the most
valuable asset that Scientology has to offer is a wealth of technology
which brings about greater spiritual awareness.
Unlike some religions which believe that man is intrinsically evil,
Scientology believes man is basically good. The Scientology religion
offers practical tools one can use to better oneself and others. Some
religions offer salvation in the hereafter, while
Scientology offers certainty of eternal salvation now.
Scientology makes it possible for any religion to attain its goals and
is therefore a religion of religions.

And now for the truth
And that's complete nonsense. To start with, Scientlogy isn't a religion;
it's organized crime. Scientology's Primary Operating
Policy is to make money, not to help others "live a better
life."
As for Scientology's claims to be all for a world without war or crime,
it's ironic because Scientology is
organized crime. As for Scientology's
claims of having an "outreach," or to have "social
reforms," those are lies, to: Scientology doesn't do anything unless
it's designed to make money, try to get their mad messiah's freakishly
bizarre notions accepted outside of Scientology, or for public relations
efforts designed to try to make the organized crime syndicate some how
overcome its well documented criminal history and current criminal
activities.
What the Scientology spokesperson doesn't mention is the fact that their
"eternal salvation" costs you big bucks. In order to even
find out about the Galactic ruler named Xenu and the invisible infestation
of murdered space aliens called Body Thetans, you have to pay the
Scientology organization hundreds of thousands of dollars and then you
start to be allowed to pay for the "auditing" to scrape off
these murdered aliens that cling to you.
The fact that Scientology isn't compatible with most religions is
covered elsewhere on this web site -- most notable What
Christians Should Know about Scientology. Indeed, many of the web
pages on this Volunteer Ministers web site covers Scientology's bizarre
notions about how people are infested with murdered space aliens, how
Scientology is organized crime, and how Scientology isn't compatible with
most religions.
All Scientology wants is your money and they'll offer thousands of
lies -- both contradictory and demonstrably false -- in the hopes that
some of their lies will prompt people to sign up for the organization's
dubious -- and often deadly
-- "courses."
