Is Narconon a front for Scientology?
A. Absolutely not! There has been a lot of controversy over the years that Narconon is a front for the religion Scientology. This is not true. The founder William Benitez studied L. Ron Hubbard and used some of his philosophies but never intended the addiction rehab program to convert people into Scientology. People have associated the Narconon program with Scientology because it pulls philosophies from Scientology’s founder. There is no requirement to convert to Scientology, and there never will be.
