Time for change

7.06.2005

Tom Cruise is an alien.

More precisely, he's a Thetan. He's an immortal being trapped on this world in a prison of MEST (Matter, Energy, Space, and Time). Seriously.

He's lucky he found the teachings of Scientology though, otherwise he'd never even realize he was immortal. And that would just suck. With the help of auditors around the world, Cruise is able to gradually unlock the painful memories trapped inside his "reactive" mind (called engrams). He needs to use an E-Meter to do it though, a highly-sophisticated lie-detector that measures changes in the body's state.

As he progresses, he will leave behind the reactive mind characteristic of trapped Thetans and begin to see the wisdom of ages contained within his "analytical" mind. When he is fully free, he'll be 'clear' of MEST and fully enlightened.

But Tom Cruise isn't alone. Besides all the normal folk out there realizing their true form through Scientology, celebrities like John Travolta, Kirstie Alley, Priscilla Presley, and a host of others have hopped on too.

Good thing they're celebrities though, 'cause Scientology don't come cheap. That's because you have to pay to be audited, pay to take courses, and pay to be enlightened. I suppose that's a small price to pay for leaving the prison of humanity and realizing you're an immortal Thetan. Here's a list I obtained from a pamphlet on Scientology and Dianetics (the 'science' behind it):

I don't even know what half of it means, the pamphlet doesn't explain anything. What I do know, however, is that Tom Cruise is definitely nuts.

  • Can Tommy be blamed for taking the 'know thyself' dictum seriously?

    Wow, I always felt trapped on this world :) Who am I?

  • Scientology has got to be the dumbest religion in the world, except for all the other ones. It's all the same nonsensical bullshit. How anyone can believe any of the ludicrous claims of any of their forefather's "faiths" is beyond me. These are the same idiots that persist in playing Halo even though Halo2 is out. Fucking asswipes! Get the fuck off the internet already.
