Scientology in New Zealand is getting to be quite interesting these days!

This was never something I heard much about previously, but now that their news has been showing up on ScientologyToday, I decided to snoop around a bit and find what I could find.  First off, just in checking out photos of the place, I'm still sold that New Zealand where I'd be living if I could have my choice.  It's beautiful!

However, it's not without the same problems as any other country, including massive problems with drugs, as well as the attendent violence and crime.   Now, if you were at the Celebrity Centre Gala in 2004 or at the Church of Scientology of Buffalo Grand Opening (like I was, luckily enough), you would have heard Mr. David Miscavige speak about the strenuous work that Scientologists are putting in on the anti-drug front, with drug education, drug prevention, and drug rehabilitation high on the list of things active Scientologists are engaged in -- not only "engaged in" though, but actually effective at.

This may help you on the quest you originated.

It's a page from the Scientology Handbook, which goes over the 8 Dynamics - or urge toward survival - that anyone has in their life.  It might help on this.
