Many people are wondering and asking the question why so many Hollywood types are into scientology.
The reason is this: Firstly, we all know that scientology is based on money, and who has more money than Hollywood types?

So, the way to get to the Hollywood types is to pander to their already swollen egos by telling them that they are superior to 'regular people'.

They tell actors and actresses that this job they do and the money they make, is because they are intrinsically better than you or I.

If you can imagine the feeding of egos that goes on here, you could also imagine how easy it is for these already undeducated narcissists to believe this nonsense. It's frightening, really, when you stop to think about it.
But, it's the main reason why it appeals to Hollywood. I guess it makes them all saints!!
Saints with lots and lots of money.

I guess they didn't clue Jerry into the aliens in the volcanoes and the H bomb scenario. He liked the intellectual and technical side of Scientology? That's similar to eating Captain Crunch for the nutritional value. I know you pretty much have to be delusional to swallow the rhetoric of the world's religions but the degree of denial and just pure ignorance it takes to practice Scientology should exclude you from ever using the words intellectual of technology in the same sentence with that sham belief system.

The more you learn about con men like L. Ron Hubbard and Joseph Smith the more you pity the fools that base their lives on the pitiful rhetoric principally designed to part the suckers from their cash. The fact that it is done with the kind of stories that the Brothers Grimm would find implausible makes it all the more pathetic.

After reading this article it is obvious Larry David was the brain behind Seinfeld. Seinfeld has always had one of the lamest stand-ups in the business now I know why.

If it helped him, I support him

Seinfeld is either clueless about Scientology or doesn't care, so long as he thinked it helped him. People like Lisa McPherson died from participating. Operation Snow White was the largest infiltration of the federal government in history. The Fair Game policy (no it wasn't cancelled) tells Scientologists to "trick, sue, lie to or destroy" supposed enemies. A Scientology official allegedly told the victim of Tony Strawn's child abuse not to report Tony to the police. On and on. But not to worry. So long as it helped ME, I don't care what happens to anybody else. Right?

Why is this all over the HuffPost front page? Why is Arianna pushing Scientology? Has she been suckered in by this evil cult?

One of Scientology's better known tricks is turning gays into straight people (and keeping them that way). I think that's what I read in the tabs.

Wow.It never fails to amaze me how so many people in the entertainment industry have been sucked in by the Dr.Phil-like rubbish of a really piss-poor sci-fi pulp writer.

Xenu and the brain-pods?Give me a friggin' break.

And I thought the Jesus thing was weird....

Scientology is not a religion. Scientology is a business -- a business with a payroll and a very large bottom line.

I know of a marriage that broke up in about 1974, a couple that was normal and happy but the wife sent all scientology crazy and the man stayed normal. she got more off the deep end all the time, turned into a real moonie over it and it ruined thier marriage. last I heard she was still waiting for the spaceship.

"Writing for a penny a word is ridiculous. If a man really wants to make a million dollars, the best way would be to start his own religion."

Who ARE these aliens?

"Lie detectors are used to verify that members are true believers."

I think the Scientology whackos are on to somethng there.

Those huge christian churches filled with evangelical fanatics could use lie detectors to see if propective members are loony enough to be good believers, and to verify that their preachers are truly interested in saving souls, rather than just wanting to flock certain members of the flock.

To Fightorleave2: Spirituality have nothing

to do with Religion!

Good day.

Uma Thurman is really great such a good person real, down to earth, hip, smart, talented, a great Mom all that..and beautiful and gracious all of us who lived in or around Woodstock NY where lucky to even know her and her brilliant famous dad as well..

I wonder if Bush and Cheney and the other Neo-Cons are in Scientology. Both groups are wacko and both worship money.
