The Church of Scientology is the largest organization devoted to the practice and the promotion of the Scientology belief system. Many other organizations exist which claim to practice the "technology" developed by Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard; the Church of Scientology asserts that these other groups are not practicing true Scientology, but unauthorized variants, and regards itself as the only source of "true" Scientology.

Ron Hubbard, his then wife Mary Sue Hubbard, John Galusha and a few others'Church of American Science' (incorporation papers); 'Church of Scientology' (incorporation papers); 'Church of Spiritual Engineering', (incorporation papers); 18 December, 1953, although "Scientology clubs" had been operating for at least a year before that.Remember Venus?, Time, 22 December, 1952
Hubbard's stated claims of Scientology were: "A civilization without insanity, without criminals and without war, where the able can prosper and honest beings can have rights, and where man is free to rise to greater heights, are the aims of Scientology.""Aims of Scientology by L. Ron Hubbard" at official site
