I assume by your question that you are asking if
Scientologists have Jesus Christ in their hearts.
I'm not a Scientologist. I'm a political critic of Scientology
(the organization).
But to answer your question, no, they don't have Jesus in
their hearts. At least not as a result of any training or
indoctrination they receive from the Scientology
organization.
Now it is true that some individual Scientologists may have
some residual Christian beliefs that were inculcated into their
minds prior to joining Scientology. But if such people stay in
Scientology long enough, they will eventually be disabused
of their Christian beliefs.
At the upper levels of Scientology, it is called "mixing
practices" to continue going to a Christian church while
pursuing Scientology coursework. Doing that can get a
Scientologist severely punished, or even thrown out of
Scientology.
But of course, none of this stops Scientology from
shamelessly lying about being compatible with Christianity.
The truth is that Scientology is ultimately quite hostile and
insulting toward Christian beliefs.
According to Scientology, the image of a crucified Christ is
something we meat humans tend to gravitate toward only
because an evil galactic ruler effectively brainwashed our
spirits some 75 million years ago. So now and our spirits get
continually refreshed with this brainwashing implant in
between our meat lives, at implant stations on Mars and
Venus.
This brainwashing keeps us as docile meat slaves, because
our true godlike, immortal spirits are not welcome by other
powerful forces in the Universe, such as the Marcabian
invader fleets.
Be assured that I'm not joking. This is actually what the
highest level Scientologists are taught.
In one lecture, Hubbard said that the historical Jesus was,
as a spiritual leader, just a shade above "Clear," a state of
alleged spiritual enlightenment which over 50,000
Scientologists have attained over the past 50 years.
In other words, according to their church, Scientologists
routinely attain and surpass the spiritual enlightenment level
of Jesus Christ, the Savior, the Son of God.
In another lecture, Hubbard claimed that he astrally traveled
to Heaven, and that it wasn't all that special.
Of course, these beliefs are hidden from low level
Scientologists. Can you guess why?
Of course, people would head for the doors in droves.
And unfortunately for many of these 50,000 Godlike
Scientology "Clears", once they quit Scientology (and many
of them have quit, perhaps as many as 1/2 to 3/4 of them),
they see that they were not really quite as Godlike and
powerful as they had been claiming to be, and reinforced to
believe when they were within the sphere of the group's
influence.
There are many hard lesson to unlearn for departing
Scientologists. I think, that just like smoking cigarettes,
Scientology is a bad habit that's best not started.

thought that was the case because i found out someone named
Hubbard cdreated Scientology and was a Satanist.
