A recent audit report protectors of the Constitution on the Scientology sect shows: The information is not sufficient to prohibit the organization. The interior ministers of countries, therefore, decided on Friday as part of its autumn conference, no prohibition against Scientology case.
For more than ten years, Scientology has been of the Constitution in Germany observed. And appreciates the sect as an unconstitutional one. Nevertheless, the interior ministers of the countries not to take, a ban on proceedings against the Organization. Already at the weekend announced the chairman of the Interior Ministers Conference, Brandenburg Interior Minister Joerg Schönbohm, in an interview: "Anyone who seriously believes that we would be jeopardized by 5000 Scientologists, is in my eyes hasenfüßig." An opinion that his Berlin colleague Ehrhart Körting shares. In an interview with RBB explained the Interior Senator: "We are fortunately Contrary to initial assumptions in the situation that the Scientology organization actually an insignificant organization."
According to estimates by the Federal Office for the Constitution is one of Scientology in Germany from 5000 to 6000 members. In January 2007 the organization opened a new center in Berlin-Charlottenburg. At the same time, there were increasing indications that Scientologists strengthened influence on federal politics want to take. Thus, all Members of the Bundestag post of Scientology - an advertisement should they by the harmlessness of the Organization convincing. The SPD interior expert Dieter Wiefelspütz warned in an interview with tagesspiegel.de before, the organization be underestimated: "I respect the deliberations of the Interior regarding Scientology. But I personally tend to believe that the organization should not verharmlosen."
The transaction with the youth
Members of the Bundestag Antje Blumenthal is rapporteur of the Union Group for sects and psycho-groups. They also warned the Scientology actions to be taken lightly. With its teachings try Scientology mainly through human life crises weakened by the sect to the condition, so her assessment: "We must strengthen education, so that the people on the street stalls of Scientology simply pass," she asked in an interview with tagesspiegel.de . Blumenthal observed particularly the attempts by the sect with concern young people for their ideology to win: After all Scientologists now operate over 30 tutoring schools across Germany, the real figure is likely higher. The business is lucrative one, but more importantly it is, children and youths on a possible career Scientology prepare, so Blumenthal.
The Constitution is sure: the organization violated the dignity, rejects the existing legal system that aims to control over their members and critics denigrated as sick and criminal. In short: It operates on the fringes of unconstitutionality. The last report protectors of the Constitution of 2007, therefore stipulates that: For a variety of sources shows that the organization "essential basic and human rights as human dignity, the right to free development of personality and the right to equal treatment, except force, or restrict wants. " Nevertheless, the interior minister against a possible ban decided. Why?
Constitution and politics are powerless
Background of the decision is a recent test of the constitutional protection of the problems in the implementation of a ban looks. The paper states that withdraw from the public emergence of the organization can derive no intention of the free democratic basic order of the Federal Republic of aggressive-aggressive to want to achieve. The Permanent Secretary in the Federal Ministry of Interior, August Hanning, said in the context of the Interior Conference, the evidence of hostility to the constitution of the organization previously submitted for a ban on procedures is not enough.
Blumenthal confirmed this assessment: "We know that their theories against the Constitution, but it lacks the concrete evidence, the court had before. They are not fighting openly against the basic democratic order," she said. "Outwardly, there is the organization as a religious community. They pretend not to have political motivation." Wiefelspütz is also cautious: "The ban issue is a critical issue in the border area: There are different ideas about the world, what religion can be. In the United States, Scientology is absolutely no problem. And the United States is certainly a rule of law," said the SPD Interior expert.
The champagne expert of the CDU is against a ban on the organization. "Now, if no prohibition is achieved, then does that mean anyway, that the observation by the Constitution goes further. I am against the ban because I believe that an open observation is better than a ban." It is the same argument, which is always in relation to a renewed ban on proceedings against the NPD is given. Party organizations and act openly, they can be better controlled than in the subsoil. Wiefelspütz also spoke in conversation with tagesspiegel.de continue for the observation that "reason to be critical observation of Scientology by the Constitution we have in any case continue."
