No!. This is why not:
Scientology is obviously a mixture of science fiction and the occult!. It is mind control dressed up in pseudo-technical language!. It is science fiction!. Source:

Of course it isn't! It is in fact the antithesis of science and the scientific method!. It is a religion, the theology of which reads like third rate 1950's science fiction!.
It is also a rather sinister cult, using ethically abhorrent techniques to cut off members from reality and threaten and bully critics! Check out operation clambake - use some real 'tech' and do a google!Www@QuestionHome@Com

LMAO!

You have to believe that some alien guy threw in a bunch of human pods or something like that in a volcano and exploded causeing some kind of seperation!. You do get powers however, the ability to fly, walk through walls, etc!. That depends on how much $$$ you give however!. Ask Tom , I imagine that he should be floating around in the sky by now seen as how he has given them over 25 million, thats righ million with an M, dollars to this cult!. Talk about the need to believe in BS, I think claiming your an athiest is more believable than falling for this load of crap!. At least you can convince yourself and others you dont believe in anything until your either so drunk you think your going to die or on your death bed in which reality hits you :)Www@QuestionHome@Com

I started writing an answer for this question, but it just ended up as a rant about my opinion of scientology!. Not very objective of me, I know!.

I thought I would share that with you because it made me chuckle!.

And I was just about to answer your question again here with a simple 'no' but I don't think I can physically do it as I feel the need to rant again!. Unless that answer counts!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Scientology is neither science nor religion!. It's an unscrupulous, brainwashing, scamming criminal enterprise and a dangerous cult!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Absolutely not!.

Scientology is not, Dianetics is not!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

No scientology is a "religion" (cult is more appropriate) !.!.!.I use the term religion VERY looselyWww@QuestionHome@Com

Its a made-up religion from inside the head of a sci-fi novelist that has managed to rope in freaky people such as Tom Cruise and his pet wife Katie Holmes!. I think the Beckhams are their next target!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Niet!. It's science fiction with a name that includes the word 'science' (probably to try and lend it a bit of credibility)!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
