The foundation of this revival was witchcraft, or *wicca* - Modern witchcraft is entirely different from Satanism or the diabolical witchcraft imagined by the persecutors of past centuries.

Hubbard **Be able to:** describe relationship between Hubbard\'s job and the religion he created, discuss a practical reason for the creation of scientology (auditing), discuss a skeptical reason for the creation of scientology Ron L Hubbard, science fiction writer. creator of scientology (dianetics) auditing ( speaking and listening) engram, they erased their trauma,( all the bad in their life) this would be beneficial because they won\'t remember anything except their own religion Scientology was invented by L.Ron Hubbard, and he was a writer that wrote Science Fiction books for living before inventing the religion. The connection between his job and scientology was that the mythology and the story telling of the religion is science fiction, and since we wrote science fiction, he started to move from Dianetics and shifted to a more religious context to the human condition The technique the book of Dianetics outlines was engram, the technique was to erase their trauma and their painful past from their mind, and it would be beneficial because they would forget their painful emotions and traumas from the past. People were skeptical of this new religion/church believing that Hubbard had originally started the religion because it was tax exempt. One skeptical reason scientology exists is that for the courses and materials for scientology is very pricey, in which can lead into financial problems to the customers of the religion, and one practical reason that scientology exists is because of community and closure for the people practicing the religion.
