A civilization without insanity, without criminals and
without war, where the able can prosper and honest beings can
have rights, and where man is free to rise to greater heights,
are the aims of Scientology.
First announced to an enturbulated world in 1950, these
aims are well within the grasp of our technology.
Nonpolitical in nature, Scientology welcomes any individual
of any creed, race or nation.
We seek no revolution. We seek only evolution to higher
states of being for the individual and for society.
We are achieving our aims.
After endless millennia of ignorance about himself, his
mind and the universe, a breakthrough has been made for man.
Other efforts man has made have been surpassed.
The combined truths of fifty thousand years of thinking
men, distilled and amplified by new discoveries about man,
have made for this success.
We welcome you to Scientology. We only expect of you your
help in achieving our aims and helping others. We expect you
to be helped.
Scientology is the most vital movement on Earth today.
In a turbulent world, the job is not easy. But then, if it
were, we wouldn’t have to be doing it.
We respect man and believe he is worthy of help. We respect
you and believe you, too, can help.
Scientology does not owe its help. We have done nothing to
cause us to propitiate. Had we done so, we would not now be
bright enough to do what we are doing.
Man suspects all offers of help. He has often been
betrayed, his confidence shattered. Too frequently he has
given his trust and been betrayed. We may err, for we build a
world with broken straws. But we will never betray your faith
in us so long as you are one of us.
The sun never sets on Scientology.
And may a new day dawn for you, for those you love and for
man.
Our aims are simple, if great.
And we will succeed, and are succeeding at each new
revolution of the Earth.
Your help is acceptable to us.
Our help is yours.
L. Ron
Hubbard
Founder
L. Ron Hubbard: A PROFILE
The 130-page L. Ron Hubbard: A
Profile chronicles the life and accomplishments of
the founder of the Scientology religion, and the impact
of his life’s work on millions of people the world over.
Profile provides the best description yet of the man
and his works, including professional accomplishments in
many fields — writer, barnstorming pilot, explorer,
musician, Marine Corps drill sergeant, Naval
intelligence officer, photographer, press reporter,
special officer of the Los Angeles Police Department,
horticulturist, master mariner, and more. It profiles a
man who was well beyond superficial classification.
