A person who follows or practices Scientology, a modern religious movement based on teachings about the human spirit and achieving spiritual freedom.
From 'Scientology,' coined by L. Ron Hubbard in 1954 from Latin 'scientia' (knowledge) and Greek 'logos' (study/word). The '-ist' suffix denotes a follower.
Scientology's name literally means 'the study of knowledge'—an old-fashioned science-sounding name that made a new religion sound more scientific than it actually was!
