I don't think the words "Scientology" and "faith" belong in the same sentence. Christianity is a faith. Judaism is a faith. Wicca is a faith. Scientology is a cult that preys on celebrities. L/ Ron Hubbard was a fucking loon and a con artist. Even his own son said "Ninety-nine percent of what my father ever wrote or said about himself is entirely untrue." Scientology has never been offically recognized as a religion, I don't think. I seem to remember something about the Scientologists fighting with the government because they wanted tax-exempt status like the other religions.
