Now there's a girl who knows the way to my heart! Yes, in reference to insult slinging: I agree with you (to an extent). I try to keep my "not green" articles to a minimum, but something about his holier than thou attitude, coupled with the news I wrote about last week regarding his gas guzzling habit, and the subsequent series of rude comments from that post left by a few Scientologists just put a bad taste in my mouth. To clarify, why I was annoyed that he said "the REASON he knew they lied was because he was a scientologist" was because that automatically implied that non-scientologists are less than or not as "enlightened." True, I probably could have a gone a little easier on the old man, but what's done is done. So while I'm impressed that he spots the need for change, after watching that video I'm a little worried about his methods/ideas for that change. Thanks for the comment, Tera. Always excited to hear what readers think! Tera- How can I argue with a comment so peppered with compliments? Now there’s a girl who knows the way to my heart!

YUM!! :-) If I may, I have a question. If this is what bugged you: "It’s the fact that the REASON why he knew they had lied was because he was a Scientologist." Then I'm confused. Is this what we're slamming him for? I get that you're a brilliant writer, so IQ isn't in question here. But, I mean, if he feels like being a Scientologist enables him to spot lies, do we really have a problem with that? If you watch the same video, the guy works 18-20 hour days because he believes there's something to be done to make a better world. Whether you agree with his choice of tools or not, his conviction is hard to deny. The degree to which he implicates himself to apply the tools that worked FOR HIM, is admirable. At the end of the day, his efforts were to help not injure others. Frankly, sometimes I don't know what's worse for the environment, gas guzzling or insult-slinging. They both contribute to a pretty degraded state of existence, as far as I can see. I don't want to invalidate you, Parrish, but if you don't like what he's doing to make a better world, maybe you can show us some other alternatives. As far as I've ever seen, slander and insult just create more injury. We're all somewhat shattered humans doing our best to survive in what can be a crazy world. I see you do a lot of great things here on this site, and for those, I thank you. *sigh* I mean, call me a Utopian thinker, but "Can't we all just get a long?" Love and hugs, Tera First let me say, Parrish, your writing reads like brain candy. YUM!! :-)

I highly doubt that the Church of Scientology is going to be any more upfront and truthful either. I have come into contact with a lot of those people that stand on the street and want to give you a "personality test" and they are just plain creepy whose main motive is to get gullible people to fork over money.

So as Scientologists, please tell your second in command that acting like a crazy head is not the best P.R move for the team. But hey...that's just what I think.

Not only does it rid the body of environmental toxins but also helps people overcome drug addiction. I too know many positive results from the sauna detoxification program Tom Cruise talks about.

All of the people I know (including one NYC fireman) were likewide impressed. I loved the Scientology sauna (toxin and chemical removal) prurification program when I did it.
