What is an Ideal Church of Scientology - an “Ideal Org”?

New Churches of Scientology are now coming up left, right and centre, with new and rather impressive buildings being planned and built in cities around the world.  An example of this is the new Church of Scientology in Pasadena, California. 

Scientologists call these buildings “Ideal Orgs” or Ideal Scientology Organizations.  This is from an essay L. Ron Hubbard wrote called “The Ideal Org” (which anyone can read from the Scientology Management Series volumes) - an essay outlining all of the functions and actions an Ideal Church of Scientology would be doing, and the responsibility that Church would be taking for its general area.   

These Churches of Scientology (like the Church of Scientology of London, picture above) have many features that enable them to take on such a responsibility.  The first of which are a massive set of displays that explain in audiovisual presentations what exactly Scientology is, and what it is that Scientologists learn and do.   It’s probably the most key thing there is in such a church, as most people know exactly what Christianity is — so such a display isn’t needed at a standard cathedral.  However, just from people I’ve talked to, there are a ton of people with basic question on what Scientology is — something that is answered terribly by random searches on the Internet at this time. 

So, if you want a straight, full answer on what Scientology is, one should definitely step into one of these new Churches.  A list of where they now are is on the Scientology Today website, and in my references section below. 

Additionally, Ideal Scientology churches provide space and facilities for groups to meet, for training sessions to occur on how to be a Scientology Volunteer Minister or to deliver Scientology Marriage Counseling, and so forth.  With ideal premises comes the ability to help the community in the ways that the community needs most — drug education programs, morality programs, etc. 

So, if you have the opportunity, stop in to one of these Churches and see for yourself what Scientology is about.
