Argentina Recognizes Scientology as a Religion

Reading up on the blog from the President of the Church of Scientology of Madrid, Spain — I just found out that the Church of Scientology just got religious recognition in Argentina!

A resolution from the Director General National Register of Worship of Argentina, and in accordance with Article 14 of the Constitution of this country (which establishes the right of every person to practice freely their religion), the President of the Church of Scientology of Argentina was notified last Thursday December 11 of this that Scientology “has demonstrated its religious character” and that is why the Secretary of Worship resolves “Enroll in the National Register of Religions under No. 4006 at the Church of Scientology of Argentina.

This makes something on the order of 50+ countries which now recognize Scientology as a religion, something I take for granted here in the states as a matter of fact. Constantly have to be reminded, though, that not all countries have such an emphasis on religious freedom as the USA.

If you speak Spanish, you can read the President of the Church of Scientology Madrid’s blog post on the announcement. But I think it’s fantastic news for all of the Argentine Scientologists (several of whom I’m very good friends with).
