Special Report // Hubbard: Prophet or snake-oil salesman? — Daily Tribune (Oakland County, Michigan)
More: link
Type: Press
Author(s): Julie Edgar
Source: Daily Tribune (Oakland County, Michigan)
Was Lafayette Ron Hubbard, founder of Dianetics and the inspiration behind the Church of Scientology, a profoundly gifted man destined for sainthood? Or was he a fraud who routinely lied about his accomplishments in order to bilk millions from his followers? Even after his death in 1986 at the age of 75, Hubbard's writings on Scientology — often slightly updated versions of earlier "discoveries" — continue to be published and some two million followers remain faithful. The media, too, continues to ...

Special Report // Members praise church 'technology' — Daily Tribune (Oakland County, Michigan)

Type: Press
Author(s): Julie Edgar
Source: Daily Tribune (Oakland County, Michigan)
Alan Kellman and Curt Larson share a long and unabashed commitment to the Church of Scientology — a loyalty that is rare in the peripatetic "network of seekers," according to one scholar. Gary Shepherd, an Oakland University sociology professor, says membership is often transient in groups like the Church of Scientology "because people become disillusioned with the unreality, the commitment becomes too great or their therapeutic needs have been met and they no longer require the help of Scientology or Dianetics." ...

Author(s): Julie Edgar

"They promise you the moon — that's what's wrong with it," says an ex-staff member of the Church of Scientology. Despite her disillusionment, "Nanu," as she prefers to be called, maintains that it is the organization that is destructive, not the principles it espouses. "The technology does work; the church doesn't," she states. "They're so into money, money, money." When she and her husband, a painting contractor, left the church in 1984 — primarily because of disagreements with other staff members ...

Special Report // Scientology: Religion or cult? — Daily Tribune (Oakland County, Michigan)
More: link
Type: Press
Author(s): Julie Edgar
Source: Daily Tribune (Oakland County, Michigan)
The Church of Scientology is often denounced as a cult profiting from the blind faith of its members. But arguments over its true nature — Scientology a religion or a cult? — seem irrelevant except when referring to its legal status, because the organization has features common to mainstream religions as well as to so-called cults. The Church of Scientology has won the legal right to function as a religious organization, and therefore is entitled to tax-exempt status in most states. ...
