What a beautiful city this is. Clean, friendly and with a stellar record of religious freedom.
During World War II it was from Copenhagen that thousands or Jews were smuggled out of Europe. The King himself put on a yellow armband with the Star of David in protest against the Nazi anti-Jewish measures.
So what better place to have the European center for the Scientology religion?
AOSH hosted a very interesting event earlier this year, that is covered in the Scientology Effective Solutions web site today. To quote:
The Hungarian edition of Freedom Magazine recently published an article on the formation of the European Foundation for Human Rights and Tolerance in response to the growing need for dialogue and mutual cooperation to resolve these and other issues facing minority populations in Europe.
Freedom columnist Zoltan Grozli reports on the formation of this new foundation at the European headquarters of the Scientology religion in Copenhagen, where more than 250 religious leaders, scholars, human rights advocates and members of government joined to accomplish the stated aim of the new foundation: to reverse the trend of religious and racial discrimination currently manifested through repressive legislation or administrative decrees in several nations of Europe.
One thing I really love about the Scientology religion is the attention Scientologists have on helping others, like the Scientology Volunteer Ministers, for example. I think what happens is that once a person starts to make progress in Scientology and regains self-respect and self-confidence it's a natural progression to start having more attention on how other people are doing. And when you look around and see how much despair and stress there is around you, you naturally want to help, knowing that you know how to help with the tools you learn in Scientology.
I'm quite sure I learned more of use in helping people and doing something worthwhile in life in just studying the Scientology Handbook and doing courses for each of the chapters in the book than I learned in 4 years of University (at which I was an "excellent" student).
