I think I love you.;-)

Mmmmuah!!!

Great comment! And I totally understand why you’re saying it.

Religion has been used as a tool to suppress human ability for a looooong time. Organizations that enforce “beliefs” or “faith” are dangerous and have caused society to have the “button” they do when the word “God” or “Religion” comes to the table.

The fact that he scares you is for you to look at.

The chances of him snapping… well, I don’t know any human being on this planet that puts up with more invalidation than him. I mean, SERIOUSLY, if he was going to snap, he’s have done it by now.

People are more likely to sling mud than they are to pick up a book and inform themselves rationally. Most people attacking Scientology have never bothered to inform themselves about what it is in the first place.I don’t mean reading slander and garbage online. I mean, picking up a book like the “Fundamentals of Thought” by Good Ol’ L. Ron himself. It’s a brilliant, brilliant book. I don’t know anyone who would slam that book down if they actually bothered to read it.

Scientologists are not Scientology. Tom is a cool guy. He’s done a lot of great things, but I bet he picks his nose when nobody is looking. I mean, clearly he still has some “issues” to address in his life, and one of them appears to be ecological responsibility.

But if he stayed at home and rode his bike to work how many lives could he touch? I dunno. Maybe these are the considerations he makes before he decides to get in his heaky deaky zippermobile and fly across the sea to meet the president of some country.

As for fear of death, and supernatural powers in life…

…I mean, I’m just one ecochick who had the courage to read A LOT of books and all I can say is this:

The more I read the more I realized that the only supernatural power controlling my life,…

…was ME! And that kinda made me want to shape up and do what I could to make the world a better place to be.

Hope that makes sense.

The world needs more yummy people like you!
You totally CRUNCH! I love it! Your little biased heart is one of the cutest I’ve ever encountered!

*Mmmmmuah!*

First of all, I am a Scientologist. *GULP* (Squinting my eyes in anticipation of attack!)

I found this post REALLY funny. Honestly, it’s BRILLIANTLY written. I have no bone to pick with that.

I’d also like to say, even though I am a Scientologist *squint*:

1. I don’t have a freaky, deaky hovercraft. (I don’t even have a car. Just a really great jogging stroller. )

2. I don’t invalidate other people for their beliefs or evaluate the “rightness” or “wrongness” of what is real for them.

3. I’d be dead if I hadn’t read a few things by Old L. Ron.

We tend to criticize and have fear the things we do not understand.

It’s easy to set off bombs in each other’s playgrounds until we realize we’re tearing apart the ground beneath our own feet, too.

I think we’re all just kinda trying to do our best with what we know, and hopefully we have the sense to be willing to learn more, and to learn through our experiences and observations rather than the judgements and opinions of others.

We all get to use the tools that work for us as individuals. There is no “right” way.

But when we create hostility amongst ourselves as cohabitants of this beautiful, green Earth, then we’re undermining the very essence of what will only, ever make the world a better place to be:

Clear, respectful communication.

Because without that, we’re just shooting guns in the dark.

I’ve seen a lot of Scientologists act like jerks out of their own ignorance and create a lot of problems.

I’ve seen a lot of non-Scientologists change nations with their hopes, dreams and vision for the future.

What do I care the tag they wear, as long as we’re all working toward the same thing?

I know you’re working for that, too, or you wouldn’t be poking your cute little nose in places like this.

Muah!
