Did Ron Hubbard Stole Scientology?

Was Scientology initially created by American speculative fiction author L. Ron Hubbard? Or did Ron Hubbard “stole” it from somewhere?

Dr. NordenholzAccording to some of our sources Scientology was created by Dr. Anastasius Nordenholz (see his picture at your left hand side) in 1934. Nordenholz’s book “Scientology: Science of the Constitution and Usefulness of Knowledge” was first published in 1934 by the Publishing House “Ernst Reinhardt” in Munich, Germany.

“While ruling against Ron Hubbard’s acolytes who were claiming that www.scientologie.org is “confusingly simillar” to some of their trademarks, an arbitrator (Mr. Meyer-Hauser) found that the rights to the Nordenholz book had indeed been licensed to Freie Zone and “these rights appear to be even older than the complainant’s trademarks.” (1934 )He also found that using the Web site to disseminate information about the book and its underlying philosophy “appears to be a legitimate interest in itself.”
