Question

What should I do to start a newsgroup in my organization?

Answer

Scientologists draw a distinction between the Church of Scientology and the beliefs and rituals of Scientology, pointing out that just as untoward behavior by the Vatican does not invalidate Catholic dogma, allegations against managers of the Church of Scientology should not taint the entire subject of Scientology. Indeed, there are those who practice a brand of Scientology entirely outside the Church of Scientology (they affiliate under the name Free Zone), although the Church considers this an illegal use of Scientology materials. In the case of Scientology, however, boundaries between the organization and the religion are often unclear. Some of the issues below relate to actions of Church leaders, some to L. Ron Hubbard's private behavior, and some to Hubbard's writings, which are the sacred texts of Scientology.
