How does Scientology view marriage and the family?
Scientology regards the family as the building block of any society and marriage as an essential component of a stable family life. A person who comes into Scientology often finds his relationships with his spouse and other family members strengthened dramatically as a result of Scientology. Scientology teaches an individual to communicate more freely with others, raises his ability to love other people and puts him in better communication with family and friends. Surveys have found that after participating in Scientology services, individuals are more likely to marry or stay married and to have children than before they became Scientologists.
