Scientology is really too muddle-headed to relate to the question one
way or the other. Apart from a pseudo-scientific theory of something
somewhat resembling, but not really equivalent to, reincarnation,
Scientology has almost no philosophical overlap with real religions at
all. (In principle, Scientology and Christianity, or Judaism, or Islam,
or Zoroastrianism, or Hinduism, or Buddhism, or Sikhism, or Shinto, or
Wicca -- or classical paganism, for that matter -- could be
simultaneously true. Even Scientology and Atheism could. Scientology
does have a certain resemblance to Gnosticism -- fair enough, really;
"Sci-" and "Gno-" are Latin and Greek synonyms -- but,
again, their
actual dogmata are mutually orthogonal.)
