The Bill seeks to repeal the ban on scientology enacted by the Liberal-Country Party Government in 1968. Mr Norton ruled that the Bill was not subjudice because of a writ by ...

I know little talents with big aspirations and big talents with little motivations. I know people who'd die for the theatre and I know people who've died in it. I know healthy actors who've been destroyed by the theatre and sick actors who've been made whole by it. I know rich actors who talk ...

Scientology: really it's just like another nickel prospect — The National Times (Australia)

Author(s): Don Aitkin

Labor's Senate leader, Lionel Murphy, seems to have alarmed a few people in declaring that a Labor Government would recognise the Scientology Church of the New Faith. The alarm is unfounded, or at least no more founded than a similar scare would be if it were learned that Labor would recognise the Church of the Immaculate Whatever. It is not simply that in these matters the Federal Government's writ extends only to Canberra and its environs and the Northern Territory. It ...

Members of the Church of the New Faith intend to fight ...

Few inmates become reformed at St. Vincent de Paul Penitentiary because prison rehabilitation programs are negligible, a Toronto prison worker said yesterday. Phil McAiney, director of the rehabilitation program Narconon, spent two days recently at the Special Correction Unit of the maximum security institution. He classified relations between the staff and inmates as "open warfare where hatred and fear are the weapons". And he charged that rehabilitation programs consist only of baseball and a weekly visit by the prison psychiatrist. "The ...

A visit to their New York headquarters in the Hotel Martinique shows that Scientology has at least put smiles on a few faces and seems to have solved many of the existential problems of the members who work and study there.

Church of Scientology Sues at Drop of Its Name — Yuma Daily Sun

Churches have been generally reluctant to engage in the expense and acrimony of lawsuits ever since St. Paul counseled the Corinthian church to avoid property litigation between members before pagan magistrates. (1 Cor. 6: 1-9) But an organization called "the church of Scientology" appears to have taken just the opposite course, in what seems to be a means of acquiring extensive publicity and at the same time frightening anyone inclined to expose their operations.
