I Blame The Church Of Scientology For This Fiasco
Since I about killed myself last week delving into the artfully orchestrated and seemingly-sinister Church of Scientology, I had to take a break. That kind of evil overload will drain a person of their will to live. But clearly, ACTUALLY being a Scientologist, like the once-handsome, now-bizarre looking John Travolta, will genuinely suck the life, color and hair out of you.
Only to have it replaced with something even Xenu and L. Ron Hubbard wouldn’t approve of.
Scientology is NOT funny. But that thing on John Travolta’s head is. Why does he have two different colors of hair? Seriously, what is up?

What puked on his head?
Or what puked and then died on his head?
Seriously, why not take a Sharpie and draw a dotted line indicating where the male pattern baldness is? That would be just a little less conspicuous than this monstrosity.
And who wears a polo shirt with a suit jacket? Between this and Tom’s turtleneck with a suit jacket, my eyes are bleeding.

I figured with Scientologists being able to move things with their minds and all that they’d be able to control receding hairlines.
Looks to me like Johnny needs to reach higher OT levels!

Gee, round of applause for kicking them when their down.
:^(
Not nice, but admittedly funny.
Why oh why must they make it so tempting? I mean, they want to be taken seriously, but then they go running off crying “waaahh, I’m gonna tell my lawyer on you!” anytime someone makes fun of them.
Like with Kristy Ally having a fit over some “scientology repelling suit” fashion joke in a magazine. It just amazes me that a woman who had such a great sense of humor about her struggles with her weight would suddenly lose it over a minor jab at that cult.
I’m sorry, but how do you NOT make jokes about mind control and all that nutty goodness?

Why are Scientologists moving entire filing cabinet drawers out of buildings in Australia, where the first planned protest will occur?

Pretty brave of you, expressing your hatred so openly. Do you have the same kind of courage when talking to people in person?

No joke! If they can create new and better realities, can’t they create new and better hairlines?
Or maybe…new and better waistlines? Just why DID Tom Cruise wear a man-girdle at his wedding, anyway?

Hey, Jarrod, did we read the same post? I didn’t see any “hatred” in what I read. Really, you guys gotta stop crying hatred and bigotry all the time. Use those words when they actually apply and people might start taking you seriously. Check out Lermanet.com and learn a little from a former $cientologist, Jarrod.

And for God’s sake, why does he have on PAN-CAKE? And why is it on his lips???
You don’t put Pan-Cake on your lips unless you cover it up with Tangee lipstick, and then just in the center to make a nice, juicy pout.

Why is it that people are always so quick to judge other people and their believes when they clearly don’t understand anything about it or know anything about that person??!
Leave JT alone!! His religion has nothing to do with the choices he makes in his life, he does what he wants because he wants to!
You are all clearly jealous of his sucess so why not until you know your facts, leave him alone and grow up!!!!

Obviously, sarcasm is lost on some people.
Comment by k — February 5, 2008 @ 7:53 pm
Oh…and one’s religion SHOULD influence one’s choices. Otherwise, why bother?
Comment by k — February 5, 2008 @ 7:54 pm
He leads an amazing life. He flys. he has a happy marriage. He is blessed with children, one with disability. he has a big heart. He is a very real person. Cuter when he was young and skinny but weren’t we all?! And how’s your career?? Be jealous. Be very jealous!
Comment by CC — February 5, 2008 @ 8:17 pm
He’s a has-been who won’t admit that he’s losing his hair and who refuses to admit that his son has autism.
Oh yeah, we’re totally jealous.

YOU are not funny. Scientologists being almost killed and you joke about it. Puke.

For some reason $cientology reminds me of high school when my buddies and I would get bored and do stupid little experiments. Sometimes they were simple little things like going to the mall then gather around at some random moment to look at a spot on the floor. Soon people would start walking up to see what we were looking at, then a small crowd would form - then we’d walk away and see how long it would take for the crowd to disperse. One time we made up a religion but then got a little carried away trying to top each other on what we could get people to believe - but we had to stop cuz it was getting mean. Good lord, we were idiots…
we never even thought to make money off it!
Is it possible hubbard just “left his body” before he got a chance to call off the experiment something?

I’m not a Scientologist but I’d like to agree with Mr.RandomComment, it’s sounds like L Ron Hubbard was just a silly guy conducting some fun innocent scientific experiments and maybe some other people took it overboard without his guidance. It’s a shame that maybe these Scientologists were maybe just a bit too enthusiastic about helping people at the World Trade Center, they might have been wiser to leave such things to trained rescue personel.
I propose that Anti-Scientology has become a cult unto itself: a small group of angry little people with way too much free time who all have their little conspiracy-theory sites that all link to each other and all chat with each other and all edit Wikipedia together and live in a self-created fantasy world where they’re “heroic cult fighters” saving the planet from that evilwickedbad Scientology. I face FAR more of a frighteningly cultic close-minded worldview from these people than I do any Scientologist I have ever met.

Oh Hello Mr. Bunch of scientologists’ names that link to xenu.net,
I think it be more like scientology is the latest spot on the floor. Only thing is, this particular spot really is quite unusual so people are going “hey everybody, come look at this craaaaaazy spot, but watch your step cuz it be a bit sticky!”
I find this is all to be quite the fascinating little cultural phenomenon. Don’t ya think?
Comment by RandomComment — February 6, 2008 @ 11:40 am
Ooooh, howz this for a crazy conspiracy theory:
What if hubbard was trying to stop the experiment and that’s why the people making money off it kept him out of the public for the last 5 or 6yrs of his life? Then they injected him with anti-psychotics before he “abandoned his physical form” in an attempt to discredit him in case he’d gotten through to somebody.

I would be more concerned about what lies beyond the current highest ranking Operating Thetan.
I mean they get new information as they move up the ranks don’t they?
So what happens when they reach the top and they can now cope with being given their “special mission” a “mission” so special it takes years of brainwashing to get you to do it…
I would be afraid.. very afraid..
