The beliefs and practices of Scientology include material related to sex and childcare, which collectively form the Second Dynamic (drive toward survival) in Scientology. This belief and practice is based on written works from the founder of Church of Scientology L. Ron Hubbard.

Dinamis Kedua
In the original Dynamics of Hubbard, "Sex" is a Second Dynamic, representing sexual acts and family units. According to Reuters : "The second dynamic includes all creative activities, including sex, procreation and raising children."
In the Life Orientation Course (written in 1979 before Hubbard's death but published after 1990), the definition was replaced "Sex" with "Creativity". This new definition is then used in compiled material such as 1998 Introduction to Scientific Ethics . According to statements made by the Church of Scientology for MSNBC , premarital sex is prohibited for Scientologists who are members of the organization's elite order, Sea Org.

Pain and Gender
In 1982 Hubbard wrote Pain and Sex, where he described misbehavior in psychiatrists (abbreviated "psychs"), under "false data from psychologists... both pain and sex were increasing this society and, coupled with robbery (which is a hooded companion of both), will probably soon turn this country into a real forest of evil. " Beyond this, in this same bulletin, Hubbard states that both pain and sex are "created by degradation tools" by "destructive beings" with the intention of "to shrink people and cut their vigilance, knowledge, strength and reach."
Scale of Tone and "Know to Sex" scale
The tone scale is a gradient graph that describes a rational or pro-survival behavior in an individual. The higher a person on a tone scale the higher his ability to survive. The tone scale is described in detail in the book "The Science of Survival". Chapter 18 of this book explains the scale of the tone as it applies to the second dynamic: "At the highest MEST point of the Nada Scale, 4.0, one finds monogamy, steadfastness, high levels of pleasure and a very moral reaction to sex."
Quotes selected from Chart of Human Evaluation:
In The Creation of Human Ability , Hubbard praised "forced admiration" as an important step in the "Knowledge" advancement, measured on the "Know to Love" scale. Hubbard states:
Hubbard then goes on to say that sex is a better "communication system" for the same purpose of forced "admiration," and defines sex, consensual or otherwise, as "the exchange of thick admirable particles".
According to Hubbard Know for the Mystery Scale (extension of Know Your Sex Scale) the level of tone is parallel to the "sex" level in Know to the Mystery Scale -6.0, which is the level of "sacrifice" on the Nada Scale. This is considered the level of emotion under the death of the body.
Homosexuality
In 1950 Hubbard published Dianetics: Modern Mental Health Sciences, in which he classified homosexuality as a disease or sexual perversion. According to Jeffrey S. Siker in Homosexuality and Religion , this is the mainstream of opinion at the time.
Hubbard's emotional tone scale, classifies individual and human behavior on the 40th (most profitable) (most unfavorable) walk graph, provides a sexual deviation of score 1.1, "obscene, hypocritical, turncoat,... levels subversive ". Such people, he argues, are "skulking coward [s] that has not contained a sufficiently imaginary energy to counteract, but not enough courage to warn".
Gender during pregnancy
Hubbard warns against sexual activity (including masturbation) during pregnancy, on the premise that sexual activity during pregnancy can impair the development of the fetus, because producing engrams is detrimental to future activity. This view is disputed by some doctors, as Paulette Cooper says in his book The Scandal of Scientology:
This same conviction forms the basis of the "Silent Birth" Hubbard doctrine, which states that no words are spoken during labor. According to a Scientology guide on raising children, couples must be silent before and after coition.
Promiscuity
In the 1967 book The Dynamics of Life (originally written around 1948), Hubbard declared that "promiscuous and unconditional promiscuity exhibits enormous sexual engravings, once the engraves are removed, promiscuity can be expected to stop. ". Footnotes then define the promiscuity as "having sex with many people". Hubbard writes in his book The Way to Happiness that if sex is "abused or abused, accompanied by severe punishment and punishment: nature also seems to mean it".
In the next few years, Hubbard tried to distance himself from organizing the sexual affairs of Scientologists. In a 1967 policy letter, he stated: "There is never any part of my plan to organize or try to regulate the private life of an individual, whenever this happens, it does not result in improved conditions... Hence all former rules, regulations and policies related to sexual activity Scientologists canceled. "
Scientology auditing
According to an undercover reporter to investigate Scientology in London in 2007, the reporter witnessed "a number of very unusual tactics and practices", including: "Pressing new staff members to leak and document small things about their sexual lives, including names "Luc Willems, a lawyer who investigates to Scientology while also a member of the Belgian Parliament, confirmed that questions about sex during the Auditing process are then potentially used against these individuals:" They ask if you have sex with animals, if you are homosexual, so they make documents, they are blackmailing people.To get out of Scientology it is very difficult. "During the Scientology" Security Checkup ", an" Ethics Officer "conducts the Audit process, and many questions that may be asked during the session involve sex life of the subject, including: "Have you ever ber have sex with students or other staff members? " , "Have you ever used Dianetics or Scientology to force sex on someone?", "Have you ever raped someone else?", "Have you ever been raped?", "Have you ever been involved in an abortion?", "Do you have a bastard?" , "Have you ever been sexually disloyal?", "Have you ever practiced homosexuality?", "Have you ever practiced sodomy?", "Have you ever had sex with your family members?", "Have you ever had sex with your children? "Have you ever had sex with other racial members?", "Have you ever practiced sex with animals?", "Have you ever had anything to do with pornography? ", And" Have you ever masturbated? ".
L. Ron Hubbard writes that "sex crimes" in individuals investigating Scientology should be reported to the press, to "Make it rough, rough on the attackers along the way." In an interview with Playboy magazine, Hubbard's estranged son, Ronald DeWolf, asserts that the Audit focuses on sex and individual sex lives, and can later be used as a form of control: "Auditing will handle all male sex. is a wonderful preoccupation.... You have complete control over someone if you have every detail of the sex life and fantasy life in record.In Scientology the focus is on sex Sex, sex, sex The first thing we want to know about someone who our audit is a sexual aberration, all you have to do is find out a person's roughness, whatever it is, their dreams and fantasies, then you can put a ring on their nose and take it anywhere.You promise to fulfill their fantasies or you threaten to expose them... very simple. "
Scientology's view of body
Hubbard calls the physical world of MEST (the acronym of "Matter, Energy, Space and Time"), which temporarily operates a "body of flesh" intended to transcend and conquer. New recruits to churches are often classified as "raw meat" or "raw public". Scientists call their bodies "bodies of flesh".
Scientology emphasizes the achievement of "the cause of MEST", and achieves the ability to leave one's body through "exteriorization" and ultimately by becoming Thetan Clear and Cleared Theta Clear Operations.
