CODE OF A SCIENTOLOGIST

A code of conduct covering how a Scientologist deals with the world outside — the press, the public, and matters of human rights and justice. It exists to protect Scientologists generally and to keep their dealings with society honest and straightforward.

From the AOGP Abridged Scientology Dictionary — based on original LRH source materials, updated through 1982.

Usage

A Scientologist asked to comment publicly on something has the code to guide what he says and how he says it. It is about conduct towards society, where the Auditor's Code is about conduct in a session.

Why It Matters

A subject is judged by how the people in it behave, not only by what it teaches. The code keeps that line to the public clean.
