No, they're not. I know some Witnesses pretty well, and while they are supposed to avoid contact with members who have fallen away from the faith, they don't take it to nearly the extremes Scientologists do. There's no "blackmail", they don't stalk and harass and litigate their "enemies" into bankruptcy. In fact,…

I'll go ahead and say it: I fucking love Sex and the City.

Yep, they are. I've taken them myself. But that's what the book says.

According to the book Miscavige started using steroids very young primarily to help him with his asthma. I don't know if he is still asthmatic since becoming clear.

Put me down as one who finds Ms. Aniston quite sexy. And beautiful. And talented. So there!

My mind has just been blown by the discovery that Jason Biggs is a Gentile. On a side note, is it really that hard for Woody Allen to find Jewish actors?

There are plenty of liberals, and plenty of Democrats, who own guns. I have an old .22 bolt-action rifle gathering dust in the back of my closet, which technically makes me a gun owner, but I still despise the NRA and favor reasonable gun control laws. As far as I know Maher has never called for the government to…

You can say it was about "killing sheep on a rock", but over 900 people died in that conflict.

Son, I think you need to do a little more research on Johnny Cash. He probably wrote over 1000 songs, and virtually all of his biggest hits and most well-known songs (I Walk The Line, Big River, Man In Black, Folsom Prison Blues, Hey Porter….I could go on an on) were written or co-written by him. "Didn't write much…

Scientologists do not pray to Xenu. Or anyone else, for that matter. Xenu is an evil galactic warlord, not a god and not a good guy. Just fyi.

Really? I didn't know that. I also don't know what show you're talking about, but that's OK.

The people in this thread are talking about two different sketches. Garret Morris did one in which he kind of chanted, "I'm gonna get me a shotgun and kill all the whiteys I see". Then a few years later Eddie Murphy did a reggae-ish number called "kill the white people" I guess it's kind of a running theme, but…

I wish the whole world hadn't seemingly forgotten about Buster Poindexter. He was a featured musical guest for at least two seasons, as I recall, and usually performed two songs a night. He wasn't mentioned in the Shales book, doubt if he got an invite to this shindig. Curiously, his wikipedia page is pretty vague on…

I guess I'm the only one who kinda liked that song…..

Janeane looks incredible. That's all.

Wrong. She looks even better.

Thanks for the reply.

I'm just curious - where are you getting all this information about season three, Josie's sister, etc.? I'm not saying you're wrong, but I've followed TP pretty closely and have never heard a lot of this.

I always thought it was named after the drummer!

I think you're referring to the widely-discredited theory that the Jesus myth bears a strong resemblance to/is a rip-off of the Osiris myth. Yeah, that part was a little embarassing.
