I am about to address a topic that both fascinates and frightens many people, especially in light of how popular it's becoming. At least two well-known Hollywood couples have embraced its tenets and I have a friend who has subscribed to this fledgling religion's ideas for around 20-odd years.
Its creator? The famous/infamous sci-fi fiction writer, the late L. Ron Hubbard.
Yup. Scientology.
In the interest of exploration and balanced, healthy skepticism, I plan to make an attempt at a scientific, albeit contemplative study of this as yet controversial path and report my thoughts. The postings will be weekly as I have other things--such as my own Druidic path (a path, which, I have felt deeply to be the path for me)--to work with. But because I profess Druidry--a highly scholarship-oriented path--it would be ignorant of me to not study other people's religions. I believe in learning to understand other people and therefore be balanced in my thinking. Besides,
those who are researching Scientology for themselves can read my blog and get their proverbial 2nd, 3rd or even 4th opinion to help them decide.
This will be the first in a series of educational and informative posts about various paths that are misunderstood by most people.
Keep in mind always that I do make honest attempts at being fair and balanced, and I have no intention of promoting one path over another in this new endeavor on which I am about to embark.
Blessings,
Rev. Kat ^.^
