Ceremonies / Worship Services and Scientology In Society
Scientology in Society
Scientologists learn the principles of Scientology in Scientology churches and through Scientology books and materials and apply those principals out in society. The practice of Scientology involves the application of those principles to create better conditions in society. Thus Scientology not only seeks to improve society through instilling a moral and ethical compass into people, but also getting them to do something positive to help others in society as a practical expression of their religious beliefs. The Church continues to be a relentless voice in the fields of social reform and justice. Scientologists have brought to light such issues as the enforced drugging of school children, the dangers of psychiatric brutalities such as electric shock treatment and lobotomy, and the chemical and biological warfare experiments secretly undertaken against unwitting American citizens in the 1960’s and 1970’s.
Ceremonies / Worship Services
Scientology ministers perform many of the same types of ceremonies and services that ministers, rabbis and priests of other religions perform. Each Sunday, and sometimes on other days of the week as well, the Church’s Chaplain or another minister conducts a public worship service which is open to both members and non-members of the Church. These services comprise a recitation of the Creed of Scientology, sermons, congregational auditing and prayer. As such they provide an occasion for everyone to commune with the Infinite and revitalize one spiritually.
