The religious aims of Scientology are expressed through betterment and humanitarian assistance offered freely to all. The scope is mind-boggling—especially to non-Scientologists.  

Forty-one years ago, Scientology was fully recognized as a religion in Australia, and today’s anniversary is a reminder of the fight for religious freedom everywhere.

A full calendar of events for the entire community makes this Ideal Church a primary source of civic life in South Dublin, where it is the largest cultural venue serving all.

Finding effective—but often elusive—solutions for civic success is a holy grail among dedicated activists. They know that “building community” is possible—but it’s always so confoundingly difficult.

“People are curious” about Scientology, ecclesiastical leader David Miscavige said when he debuted the Scientology Network in March 2018. He opened the network by standing in the heart of the religion’s international home, the Flag Land Base in Clearwater, Florida. “We’ll take you through all of it,” he said. And now he has. Two new shows—on Flag and the Tampa Church—are airing on the network. Your curiosity is rewarded.

In the opening scenes of a new Inside Scientology episode, viewers appear to hover above a majestic architectural monument, the Flag Building, a 21st-century structure of sweeping steel and marble brilliantly lighted by the bronze rays of Florida’s sun.
