Scientology is a Choice

According to the official Scientology website,

In Scientology no one is asked to accept anything as belief or on faith. That which is true for you is what you have observed to be true. An individual discovers for himself that Scientology works by personally applying its principles and observing or experiencing results.

The Church of Scientology does not allow anyone to participate in Scientology services unless they themselves have made the decision to. Even children must make their own decision to take courses in Scientology and practice the religion.

Scientology is not an exclusive religion. There are many Jewish, Christian, and Muslim Scientologists out there. Scientology can be seen as a religious philosophy that helps people find spiritual understanding.
