Scientology wrongly classified by the IRS as a 'religion'?

A 'religion' is something that the commoner would comprehend as a belief system in a devine spititual being/creator, where the place of worship is devoted to praying to that entity.


The above screen capture is from an internal document called 'The Corporations of Scientology', where Lafayette Ronald Hubbard also states that the growth (of the 'Corporations of Scientology') depends on "keeping corporate structure straight".

By Hubbard's very own words which have been immortalised in writing since 1966, Scientology is a corporation aggregate, where any reference to being a religion is done so under false pretences to later establish a tax exempt status.

We should note that the three classical Abrahamic religions along with other long established religions such as Hinduism and Buddhism have staff supporting the daily operations of the religious organisation.

Any person can walk in from the side walk to a place of worship in the (real) religions such as the Catholic Church, the Orthodox Church, Buddhist Temple, et al, to respect pray to that deity, but not into a 'Church' of Scientology.

From Scientology's very own contract persons must acknolwledge that Scientology is a religion, otherwise they cannot be contractually obligated to the corporation aggregate commonly referred to a Scientology.

Also 'staff' must acknowldge in their contractual obligation to Scientology that the corporation aggregate is a Religious Order which is to be referred as the "Chruch", as seen in screen capture below:

The above screen capture is from the following 4 page document:



Fundamentally, Scientology is a corporation aggregate functioning strictly under contractual law, where as a result it cannot lawfully be called a religion, even though it has been (falsely) given tax exempt status by the Internal Revenue Service, in order to function as a so called 'religion'.
