Boyfriend was watching the sport on iPhone while waiting to pick me up on the train. Considering the interwebz isn't very fast on old iPhone 3G that's quite impressive. It's also handy when rain interrupts our Sky viewing.

Looking fwd to Panorama this evening. An old family friend has lost contact with his son over this church of scientology doodad. I will be intrigued to hear their justification for this nastiness.

Interesting, wasn't it? I was amazed that having left the cult, er, church, those people still believed in it's tenets.

We've sky+'d it so not seen it yet.... A lot of rehab facilities in the UK are run by them which I didn't know until about 4 years ago.

Well, someone has to protect them on the off chance that Lord Xenu escapes captivity and returns to wreak havoc as the head of the evil Galactic Confederacy! I thought the programme was amazingly good entertainment. I love the fact that there are so many stupid people out there, willing to pay for the privilege of being fed third-rate sci-fi dross as holy scripture.

I do hope that is not a dig at us Jedis?  Personally I do not know of anyone paying for their Jedi courses.

I'll have to try and catch this later, but this point has always puzzled me. Sure, there are morons everywhere but some of the high-profile people associated with Scientology are not complete idiots so how does this comic-book cult suck them in? Scientologists are often in Bromley High Street on Saturdays offering so-called stress tests but they're outside Primark to trawl the people flooding in and out of that store and I can understand that, but what is it that gets people like Tom Cruise, John Travolta, Kirstie Alley and Will Smith hooked? Whether you like them (or their films) or not, they're not that idiotic, surely?

There seems to be a direct link between gay accusations and actors who are members of Scientology.... I'll let you draw your own conclusions.

Certainly not, theres nothing third-rate about the Jedi order! Nope, the only thing I had to cough up for was my Lightsabre.

Narc Anon is a Sci org. I've had a friend who was going to attend for various reasons, and I was really torn between her getting help and falling in with the Scis.
