    That video is some crazy ass shit. I've never heard anyone use so many odd words in such freaky combinations to say so very, very little. Wait, a minute, yes I have...is Kelly Bensimon a Scientologist? Hmmm....

    I assume that anyone who takes Scientology seriously is mentally ill. That's why the Scientologists are so against psychiatry. Any psychiatrist worth their salt would have to admit following a religion invented by a mediocre 50's scifi writer is kookoo. But Hubbard wanted to make money, which is difficult to do as a writer, so he had to fall back on Religion Inventing to sell books.


    Hmm. Maybe it's not such a bad idea.

    I wonder how many people in the audience are just stoned and/or lovers of kitsch, because their schtick is just too much. It's like Sunday mass, as directed by the producers of "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?"

    The sad part about the illogical sounding arguments of the Scientology is that it undermines raising actual awareness of the corruption of the pharmacutical industry (the bribing of doctors, the pharma-based studies that psychatrists draw their info from, how healthcare pushes meds cause it's cheaper than couseling)


    All the VALID arguments are tossed aside when Scientologists wave their arms about and speak gibberish. People associate anti-pharma with scientology. And this is a major FAIL.

    I have a serious inquiry: can someone out there who practices Scientology give me a real rationale for their religion? Do you realize it's founder was a sci-fi writer? Do the adherents actually believe e-nodes and their machinery actually heal people? That you must pay out for each level of consciousness? I know most religions lose context on the explaining (faith is hard to quantify) but is it a Hollywood hoax or some sort of social experiment that points out the ridiculousness of organized religion?


    It'll be interesting if it survives the test of time as a theology. I wonder if it has the legs to be become a world religion.

    Hah. I guarantee Miscavige is aware of this, but has avoided confronting Gretta about it before now. And hopefully this will get enough press to force the issue.


    It's fine for scientology to rip apart families as long as they're not in the spotlight, you know.

    So, I actually lived with Jamie at Georgetown. He's a nice guy (or, at least he was all those years ago). I hope this attention actually helps him, since it's not like he's done anything to deserve public scrutiny.

    How do people like this get shows? Not asking in general but specifically: who finds them and thinks "This would make good TV." Is there someone in charge of this? VP of Douche TV?
