Author(s): Julie Edgar

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. ...

TAMPA — You shouldn't be reading this story. The tale of Margery Wakefield vs. the Church of Scientology is supposed to be a secret. Church officials say so. So does a federal judge. In fact, Wakefield could go to jail for talking about the 12 years she spent as a member of the cult, which has its spiritual headquarters in Clearwater. Wakefield, 41, is talking anyway, braving the threats of Scientology lawyers and testing the patience of a U.S. district judge. ...

ST. PETERBURG, FLA, - It was like something out of a science fiction script - but L. Ron Hubbard, the founder of Scientology, claimed it was fact. "Xenu," he called the central character. Xenu ruled the 90-planet Galactic Confederation 75-million years ago, when overpopulation was a problem. So Xenu solved the problem: He trapped selected beings and flew them to volcanoes on Earth, then called Teegeeach. He then dropped powerful H-bombs on the volcanoes. The beings were destroyed in a wall ...

The U.S. Supreme Court has held that taxpayers could not deduct as charitable contributions payments made to the Church of Scientology in order to receive "auditing" and "training" services.

Auditing is a one-on-one encounter between a participant and a church official. The church also offers "training" sessions to instruct participants wishing to ...
