"that's why it was cathartic when she finally kicks him to the curb."

I would have 12 children and name them all after him if he actually did that.

Oh. In that case, carry on, my good fellow.

The corticosteroid inhalers used to treat asthma are very different from the bodybuilding anabolic steroids that make you short-tempered and shrink your nads (just an FYI).

I don't think anyone would dispute the horrible stuff the Catholic church has done, but you can hardly argue that there hasn't been any press about it. (Which is what the original comment was talking about— that CoS is talked about disproportionately, in comparison to other groups).

You know, maybe better insurance coverage for mental health would prevent a lot of this…

Also, WBC has an actual case re: the First Amendment, even if I personally think they're a bunch of hateful douchebags. It's not exactly comparable to how Scientology uses the law to harass and silence critics and former members, etc.

McOrtolan.

Sounds more like a rapper on 30 Rock .

Plenty of religions have what many people would consider "wacky" beliefs and dogma. Not that many, however, have had as many credible accusations in recent years re: human trafficking, the use of child and slave labor, forced abortions, kidnapping of children from their parents, etc.

I believe I saw a more recent estimate that's it's more like 15,000 active members now. They've been losing a lot of people in recent years with the bad press.

Nothing says "professional press release" like using the phrase "made up garbage".

I'm genuinely curious as to what you dislike about them. It seems like a rather random thing to include in a list with "atomic bombs" and "mind-altering drugs".

"ceiling tiles etc."

I'm picturing Cruise biting into his "medal", a la Charlize Theron in Arrested Development . ("It's a prize. A lovely, lovely prize").

I hope so— I'm sure it'll be as hilariously inept as their previous efforts.

Death! No, wait, cake!!

Have you considered cargo cults? This 7UP bottle just *fell* out of the *sky*, man…

That's the last level, where you finally conquer Xenu and he turns into an awesome pair of platform sandals.

I don't think I really have anything to add until you learn to read. Have a nice day.
