Highly disagree with the "religion" being true. It was "established" therefore It's a cult. Based and founded on many of the facts brought up already.

No, I mean, It just came up. Christianity has the belief of a savior, that's where our belief came from.
What's your take on Scientology?

We believe we have a savior. Scientology doesn't. It's a way of life, not so much as a belief in the afterlife.

Okay, as already said. There is no faith involved with scientology. Does that make better sense?

I hate to seem like a dick Holly, but the criteria of being a religion isn't-

~Having no definate beginning (Esablishment)
~Having a savior that died for sins
~Way of After/Life

The criteria are really indefinant...
take basic Paganism...
Paganism doesn't have a definant establishment, but some of it's sects do, such as Wicca. Wicca was established around the same time as Scientology. Does that mean it's not a "Real Religion" ? I'm fairly sure most religions don't have a savior that died for their sins...Actually, I'm pretty sure that's ONLY Christianity. Some Christians don't have a "Christian Way of Life"... some are just in it for the promise of heaven...

Have stable arguments on why it isn't a religion...
