Scientology offers a refreshing head-on approach to life. A lot of people spend their lives doubting their choices, regretting their decisions, and often can't make up their mind so do nothing. Scient... See more

They tried to brainwash my friends!

They tried to brainwash my friends and wouldn’t let them leave, they shut the doors and the windows fogged up so you couldn’t see in, I don’t know what they did but she’s not the same, STAY AWAY FROM THIS CULT!

$cientology spelled with a capital-$

I paid €50 to renew my IAS Membership and was denied entry to the IAS Anniversary Event tonight. I no longer want to be part of your organization and expect my €50 refunded immediately. Remove me from all lists and do not contact me again. Tonight proved exactly what I already suspected: Scientology is about money, not spirituality — the “S” should be a “$.” Under EU consumer protection laws, prepaid fees for services not provided must be refunded promptly, and I will escalate to consumer protection authorities or legal channels if this is not done. Good luck turning “charity” into cash!

I had a deeply negative experience with this organization. After signing up and later cancelling my membership (with a refund issued), I continued to receive unwanted calls, texts, and voicemails — even after explicitly asking them to stop. This persistent contact feels invasive and disrespectful.I’ve blocked their number, yet they continue reaching out from different ones. I believe this behavior crosses into harassment, and I’m considering reporting it to the relevant authorities.I do not recommend engaging with this group. Their communication style is manipulative, and I regret ever signing up. Please be cautious.

The first time I got interested I was…

The first time I got interested I was not in a good place but a chat and a book changed my life. I can look back and say with certainty that my life has changed for the better. What I like in particular is that you can read some books do some online courses to decide for yourself if it's for you. English is not my first language I struggled with the book in the beginning but even there they had a course to help me sort that out from being illiterate to literate - it is a big win for me. I couldn't hold a job down before and now I can and make good money. I could make a whole list from being unhappy no relationships to be married and have kids it really has helped me a lot.

This stuff works

I have been a Scientologist for about 15 years and it has definitely helped me in life. There are lots of lovely basic courses that address various aspects of life, it is simply a matter of study the material and understand it and apply it. This stuff works! I feel more stable, more healthy, have faster reactions, better communication and generally doing well. The most memorable incident was when I was doing the Survival Rundown. I was coming back from an evening event, loaded down with assorted stuff and keys in one hand and a large cookie in the other. The cookie took the opportunity to break in half and head groundwards. I managed to catch it before it hit the ground. I impressed myself with my fast reactions.

I honestly love Scientology

I honestly love Scientology, simply because it provides tools to have a happy life. You do a course, apply it in your life and you see results. When you use the tools Scientology provides you grow as a person and your environment benefits from it too!

Unpaid account

My husbands company, MSJ Renovations, did work for Church of Scientology during December '24 in Port Elizabeth. We have been struggling for 3 months to get the final payment for the work done from them. They just ignore our emails and phone calls. We have been in contact with Andrew Nestler and Justin Varcoe at their offices in Johannesburg.
Does anyone have any advice?

I used to get very stressed especially when I was trying to work or do some activities. People or situations would arise stopping me or disturbing me at all time bringing a large quantity of stress and utter frustration. After studying and doing some counselling with Scientology Technology, it all went away. Now there is no stopping me. I can be disturbed. It really doesn’t matter. I have no stress left and can accomplish no matter the stops and situations what I have set out to do. It is truly a game changer for me.

Something that actually works.

Through it I have found answers to questions and resolved issues/problems that had been plaguing me and holding me back since I was a youngster. There were lots of other schools of thought and practises that I looked into before I found Scientology. It was a great relief to finally find something that really worked as described. What I also loved was that I didn’t have to believe anything. A truly practical religion. Life has been a widening horizon full of joy and adventure since and because of Scientology.
