The Organization issues a large variety of publications. Of importance for
the German-speaking area are the publications "Freiheit" ("Freedom"), "Impact",
"Source" and "International Scientology News"; information on the
respective circulation numbers is provided by SO only infrequently, e.g. with
reference to special issues of "Freiheit".
SO provides varying information in its publications: in a "Freiheit" ("Freedom")
issue of 1999, entitled "Was ist Scientology?" ("What is Scientology?"),
it gives the addresses of seven "churches" and eleven "missions". According
to SO information on the Internet (as of 8 November 1999), they have
eight "churches" and nine "missions" in Germany. "The Auditor - Issue
287", 1999, p. 12, refers to eight "churches in Germany.
An exception, on account of a different legal situation, was the Schleswig-
Holstein Office for the Protection of the Constitution.
Cf. "Report by the ’Bund/Länder Working Group on Scientology’ of the Offices
for the Protection of the Constitution, to be submitted in accordance
with the IMK Decision of 05/06 June 1997" (situation as of 12 October
1998), p. 102.
As stated in a decision by the Federal Labour Court of 23 March 1995
(Neue Juristische Wochenschrift 1996, pp. 143 seqs.), the SO in Germany
was not a religious or ideological community as defined in the Basic Law.
Rather, its religious or ideological teachings served only as a front for pursuing
economic goals.
Cf. Article 3 of the model format for the statutes of an SO mission.
