She included how it benefited her, providing her with a clear understanding of life.
"Scientology comes from the Greek word, 'scio' which means 'knowledge,' and 'logos' meaning, 'the study of.' Thus, it is 'the study of knowledge'. Scientology contains practical solutions to real life problems," Ms. Skjelset explained to the class,
Ms. Skjelset showed the class several videos from the Scientology website which provided a visual overview of the religious services, beliefs and social betterment activities the Church of Scientology engages in.

Ms. Goodsell spoke of the activities the VMs have been involved with in the Tampa Bay area, such as neighborhood clean ups, installing smoke detectors in underserved areas and working with the Red Cross. She also showed the class a video which underscored the basics of "The Technology of Study" elucidated by Scientology founder, L. Ron Hubbard on the barriers to learning and simple solutions to remedy them.
One student summed up the talk by saying, "Wow! This was a very original and interesting kind of talk. In all the different subjects that I am studying, religious studies classes are always the best!"
