What is the difference between “Scientology” and “Christian Science”?

For the record, I’ve done searches. I have also found, though, that asking people who actually practice those religions yeilds better results than searching through newspaper articles and websites. Clearly you get a kick out of being rude, while I prefer to have intelligent questions and answers.

Answer by a kinder, gentler me
Do a search thingy up in the ‘Search the Web’ in the box right up there in the top right corner of the page. I don’t know what Christian Science is, but I do know that ‘scientology’ is a crazy thing a science fiction writer (L Ron Hubbard) started as a way to make money (because his books did’t).

Between Heaven and Mirth: Why Joy, Humor, and Laughter Are at the Heart of the Spiritual Life

In Between Heaven and Mirth, James Martin, SJ, assures us that God wants us to experience joy, to cultivate a sense of holy humor, and to laugh at life’s absurdities—not to mention our own humanity. Father Martin invites believers to rediscover the importance of humor and laughter in our daily lives and to embrace an essential truth: faith leads to joy. Holy people are joyful people, says Father Martin, offering countless examples of healthy humor and purposeful levity in the stories of biblical heroes and heroines, and in the lives of the saints and the world’s great spiritual masters. He shows us how the parables are often the stuff of comedy, and how the gospels reveal Jesus to be a man with a palpable sense of joy and even playful

What song is this? Has “Between Heaven and Hell” in the lyrics?
It plays on Dc 101 for anyone in the Virginia, Dc, or Maryland area. It’s a rock song that has lyrics that go “Between Heaven and Hell” and it is not Zakk Wylde. It’s a fast pasted rock song

30 Seconds to Mars would be my best guess… But there are hundreds of songs played on DC 101 and hundreds of songs with |Between Heaven and Hell” in the lyrics. You can try looking on Metrolyrics.com or Azlyrics.com. Hope this helped!

What is the difference between “Evangelical” and “Protestant” domination?
Is Evangelical the same as Lutheran?

Most popular answer:

Answer by tlbs101
Protestant = all modern denominations that have their roots from the break with the Roman Catholic church when Martin Luther ‘protested’ many things about the R.C. church (including the Lutheran denomination).

Evangelical denominations are a sub-set of the protestant church, who are active in sending out missionaries to non-Christians, and are also active in evangelizing non-believers.

Does homeopathy work?” is often the question that troubles people and hamper them from pursuing further medical advice and treatments when it comes to this field of medicine.

Skeptics often dismiss the fact that before conventional medicine was the simplistic, traditional forms that have truly benefited men during his developmental eras. We haven’t reached the peak of progress yet various developments in the field of medicine shows that we have ran a great deal of distance from where we have first started

To answer the question we have posted above, we would use the principle of comparison between orthodox medicine and homeopathic medicine and will later provide some advantage points on the side of homeopathy.

Orthodox medicine or conventional medicine is the field that dominates our present ails. In general, this views health as the lack or absence of diseases and abnormalities in the human body. Thus, it says that when someone shows no sign of sickness then he is in good health.

But homeopathy views health as something more than that.

t is good to remember that human body was created for perfection yet this is hardly achievable these days due to exposure to various elements that often harms and exploits our health. This truth can be seen by looking at the spectrum of choices we now have in terms of medications alone. Therefore, at any given time the majority of us are deficient in health to some degree.

Homeopathy only considers someone as healthy when he is free from all deficiencies and abnormalities. Say, a person with difficulty in breathing is not healthy at all or someone who is depressed can be considered as not free from emotional hampers, thus he is sick. Or someone suffers from intermittent memory loss, he may be considered mentally ill. And so, homeopathy will restore all these levels of health.

Unlike the extensive and more comprehensive measures used in orthodox medicine, homeopathy uses the body itself to heal itself. Thus, there is no harm done since it only works on the basis of stimulation and not on the integration of certain measures to bring optimum health.

That is very different, you see. Conventional medicine uses surgeries, medications with side effects and methodologies that often have their grave disadvantages. We must note though that since treatments are taken to their highest degree, the results are normally invasive and unquestionably effective. But as we have mentioned earlier, homeopathy only uses simplistic forms of treatment that works on the minimal level. In fact, this field of medicine only focuses on the treatment of symptoms and not on the condition itself.

Another view on symptoms in homeopathic medicine is that these are the body’s way of restoring health, no matter how miserable or uncomfortable they are. In conventional medicine, these are the abnormalities that must be eradicated to come out with a solution for further treatment.

Again, instead of suppressing the symptoms, which is what orthodox medicine does, homeopathic medicine will find remedies on the root cause which therefore promote the healing.

Homeopathy works by looking at the needs of the individual and the individuality of the disease or the ailment. But conventional medicine sees the disease in general ways that leads to assumption that there must be one, ultimate solution to them. This is observed in the particular medications prescribed for all patients suffering from a specific disease. What this principle fails to understand is that each of us suffers in a unique way and each ailment expresses itself in ways other than what is determined as “general”.

What is the difference between Scientology and Dianetics?

Scientology simply means a study of wisdom or knowledge. It has to do with you, yourself. Dianetics, on the other hand, is about your mind, which is what makes you think the way you do. They are subtly different subjects.

You are a life force. You are the I, or me, that answers up to the question, who are you. I ask, “Who are you?” and you say, “I am me.” You are that me. You are your own soul. Scientology is a study about you. You are a life force and you are subjected to universal laws of nature. And if you know these laws you can control life instead of being effect of life. Scientology is a study about these laws of life and how to use them.

Dianetics, on the other hand, is about your mind. It is about that part of your mind that makes you react badly. Note your mind is not you. Our minds also follows certain laws and when you know these laws of the mind, you can be in control of your mind, thoughts and actions, instead of them controlling you.

Both Scientology and Dianetics have a practical side. When you know the laws of life you can counsel and be counselled so as to remove the adverse affects of living. You can restore your former vigour and zest. Scientology theory is important, but like all theory, it is there to be applied. In Scientology you apply the knowledge you learn and through the application of this knowledge you become more yourself and more able.

Dianetics and Scientology have counselling as their major practical application. Both have as their goal higher states of being for man. It is not necessarily true that Dianetics came before Scientology, as both subjects were in their research phases long before the book Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health was released in 1950. The word Scientology was first used by L. Ron Hubbard in 1932. But the book Dianetics was the first mass book on the subject. From it more Dianetics books were written and published until there was a larger body of data on the spirit, and life – Scientology. At that point Scientology books were published.

Today all these books and recorded lectures of L. Ron Hubbard are available. There are also full length movies on each subject. Through these books both subjects are easy to understand.  And if one were to read the books one would gain a great conceptual understand of not only Dianetics and Scientology, but a huge understanding of one’s own mind and life.
