Mr. David Miscavige is a religious leader of the 21st century who sees to the use of Scientology technology on a broad scale throughout the world. Information on this is at www.scientologytoday.org/bio

The Scientology religion is for sure a 21st century religion accomplishes miracles as routine with its effective solutions. This page has information about it. www.scientologyreligion.org

This is a page about the effective solutions brought about by application of Scientology technology. It really gets results. www.scientologyreligion.org

I'd say we could all do with a dose of religion these days.

They say that the month after the holidays is the hardest. After you've been looking forward to Christmas and all that time off, and then you realize you still have several more months of snow and early nights and cold to go. And how many more months of school? And how long to vacation?

So I would like to recommend to anyone who is feeling a big down - get a copy of the Scientology Handbook based on the works of L. Ron Hubbard and give it a try.

You deserve a lift, and there's no better time to get one than in January.

Scientology Anti-Drug Campaign

Scientology churches have been running anti-drug campaigns for a very long time. I remember as far back as 1981 that Scientologists were active in the "Get High On Yourself" campaign.

The "Say NO to Drugs, say YES to Life" campaign has been running in Europe for about 20 years, and this year the Drug Free Marshals will be 14 years old!

But if you want to understand why a Scientologist would be so active in helping people stay off drugs, I can tell you why it's important to me.

I have trained to be a Scientology Volunteer Minister. And I've seen first-hand how destructive drug use can be.

Just before I got involved in Scientology I had some neighbors I was very fond of - a couple in their early 20's. They were both artists.

They got more and more heavily into drugs, and the woman grew more and more anxious and withdrawn, until one day she attempted suicide.

I saw drugs completely change her personality.

This is just one exampe when I've seen this. I've seen many.

And I know that 1) Scientology offers solutions to drug abuse and 2) that for a person to get into drugs in the first place they must be trying to solve something in their lives, and Scientology is a much more certain and effective way to solve these problems.

The Scientology religious movement is a 21st century religion growing tremendously. Mr. David Miscavige has done a great deal to forward this expansion. An interesting page that describes his dedication to this is an outline of an interview of Mr. Miscavige done by the St. Petersburg Times.

Scientology in Berlin!

Just as David Miscavige promised at the Scientology New Years Event this year, the Church of Scientology of Berlin IS having its Grand Opening this Saturday, Jan 13th.

What an event this is going to be.

Everyone I talk to has a friend or family member or neighbor who's going. This event is going to be intense!

Here's what the new Church looks like from the ground floor -- Courtesy of Yahoo News and Reuters.

The only filmed interview of L. Ron Hubbard is now on DVD at www.scientology.org/interview. The quality of it is outstanding.

Goals for the New Year

Do you have any special goals for the new year?

I do.

I want to really do something important to help people this year.

And as a Scientology Volunteer Minister, I know I can.

That is so gratifying.

But I want to do even MORE.

I haven't figured out how yet.

Stay tuned.

Welcome to the Year 2007

Talk about a fast year. I hardly noticed 2006 go by. I don't know what the deal is. Can't figure out how a whole year could be gone already.

But I have a feeling 2007 is going to be one of the best years of my life.

Let's regroup 12 months from now and see if I was right!
