Members Goofball Jones Posted January 22, 2008 Members Share Posted January 22, 2008 I never saw this coming... Of course you did! I'm just surprised that it took this long. I gotta do everything around here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members venturawest Posted January 22, 2008 Members Share Posted January 22, 2008 Ya know... there's not a whole lot about Scientology that I haven't heard from Catholicism, Judaism, Hinduism, Buddhism... and even from self-rightuous doctors and lawyers who think THEY have all the answers to the world's problems.Everyone thinks they know what is best. The only difference is, Scientology is foreign to us self-proclaimed "normal" people. So we're afraid of it. yep. religious zealotry in all its forms - all the ones listed above being good examples - sounds just as insane as the nonsense i hear from evangelical ministers during these election years. so, since you brought it up - please give some examples of your complaints about "self-rightuous [sic] doctors and lawyers...".

Members Joey Joe Joe Posted January 22, 2008 Author Members Share Posted January 22, 2008 From the behavior we've seen from him lately, I wouldn't be surprised if the talk shows/interviewers are told NOT to ask certain questions regarding Tom's behavior, Scientology, etc. or they won't do the interviews, you know?

Members Jugghaid Posted January 22, 2008 Members Share Posted January 22, 2008 If you know about them... then how are they "secret"? Because I bought the book with the cheat codes. Seriously though... I'm not here to argue the "scare-factor" of this, or any other religion because it's all relative. The fact is... a lot of people know very little about it. Hell... they know very little about their own religions. But they dismiss it because it's foreign to them. They dismiss it because it's unusual for a high profile actor to state his beliefs among a national audience. And consequently, anytime someone has, they are considered "creepy". not creepy. Anyone can believe anything they want. And if someone wants to base their religion on a book from an admitted science fiction writer, more power to 'em. I think I'm gonna come up with a relligion. It will be about bass players who came to this planet from their home planet of lo-end. after a viscious battle with the evil drumtards that destroyed their planet (and broke up the damn band), they fled to start anew. They landed here and immediately began replicating by drinking straight vodka and doing backflips while eating cheese doodles.their god, Jaco, is all-knowing and can strike down his enemies with monster fretless grooves from his home in the mythical city of Fender.Yeah....that'll sell. where's my check?

Members Roger in the sky Posted January 23, 2008 Members Share Posted January 23, 2008 Yup...I suppose Scientology would be more accepted if someone's currency was stamped with "In L. Ron Hubbard We Trust". or if we hadn't seen "battlefield earth" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Super_Donut_Man Posted January 23, 2008 Members Share Posted January 23, 2008 tbye bye tom's career. Nah. Hell, Mel Gibson going off on Jews and calling a female law enforcement officer sugar tits didn't wreck his career. So I think Tom will recover.

Members D Aussie Posted January 23, 2008 Members Share Posted January 23, 2008 All the best artists, wether they be actors, musicians, painters, writers, dancers, singers or fecal re-distribution specialists, are nuts.They are preferable that way.Imagine if your fave artist (see above) had the personality of an accountant.Faggedit.Its about time we had more nuttiness in the world of mass media.I love it!
