Sorry, but you're writing that like it's a sophomore essay in religious studies. Instead of starting with the generic "explored the debate of the religious status of Scientology" or whatever, try to be more precise and to the point. And that Hubbard presented that Dianetics stuff as "empirical science" doesn't mean that the change to Scientology was at all meaningful in that regard--there's a difference between his presentation and the reality. I don't know if that is what's in the article, or if it's your summary. Also, please do the citation in the proper template, in keeping with the rest of the article.
