科学教（山达基Scientology）是一套信仰与修行活动的体系及宗教，是由L·罗恩·贺
伯特所创立，山达基始于1952年，山达基的前身是贺伯特更早期的一套自我帮助的系统
──戴尼提。为宣传教义，贺伯特于1953年于新泽西建立了山达基教会（Church of
Scientology），一般舆论称将该教归类于新兴宗教。
山达基一开始就饱受争议。它常被媒体、前山达基人描述为一个邪教[3][4][5]，进行
财务上的诈骗并虐待其成员，为其灵性上的服务收取过高的费用。山达基教会对付这类
的批评者一贯采用诉讼的手段，而它积极追赶其敌对者的态度，常被视为骚扰。山达基
另一项饱受争论之处，在于其相信希坦（thetans）转世（Reincarnation），而且在灵
