That man is off with the pixies...it's scary how he talks about how one day sp's (supressive persons) will only found in history books with the manical laughter and all. The whole 'you're in or out' and 'I've cancelled the whole spectator thing in my area' thing.
I wonder if all the top brass of Scientology actually believe the stuff about Xenu... |

Thats what I'm most curious about. With most religions its fairly safe to assume that at least MOST of the leaders believe in the stuff. With scientology its actually hard to believe that the leaders on top sincerely believe their own bullshit. |

Thanks. And thank you for getting my name right (unlike a certain hell-bound infidel who spells it Baastian)

Generally yes. But in case of the Vatican I also have my doubts. I think they know a lot of stuff is not entirely true yet quite useful to 'contain' (contain being a contamination of the verbs entertain and con) the masses.

It is, isn't it. It's just too obvious. But than again...Mahomet talking to an angel in a cave or the mormon story or the monkey armies of Hanuman.....people believe that stuff too. |

Inside Addition did a story last night on this very subject. Cruise denies that the church threatens ostricising people who maintain contact with people who leave the church.
Even if they dont, their beliefs are just as hokey and delusional as mainstreem monotheism. |

Quite interesting that Tom Cruise sits there and lies for the corp known as $cientology...
my only question is, why would the SP(supressive persons) be only seen in a history book? Either they died out, assimilated, or were killed O_o
either way creeps me out. |

Tom Cruise (and scientologists in general) are idiots, and he cannot act. |

Not defending anything here. Grew up with it my whole life, not sure if its for me or anything, but it sure is for almost my entire family. Xenu thing, non existant as far as I know. Tom cruise? IDIOT. He doesnt know what he is saying and is a bad face for the whole thing, not that scientology is particularly helping their cause by filing all these law suits and such |
