Scientology is not faith. Faith and belief don't come into it. There are no hymns, no prayers, no facing the East, no asking a supreme being for advice on how to run your life, and no genuflecting before an altar. No altar either, come to that. As a religion, it's closer to Buddhism than anything else.

Scientology is first and foremost a PHILOSOPHY. It's a philosophy that deals with YOU and what YOU are is a spiritual being. And it's not something that you believe in or learn to recite without understanding what it means, it's a subject you USE, you know, like the computer you are using to read this post. It's a technology that people study. 

"what you observe is what you observe. Look at things and life and others directly, not through any cloud of prejudice, curtain of fear or the interpretation of another."  L.Ron Hubbard
