    Their bookshelf has too many L. Ron Hubbard titles. I'll give you two for educational purposes, but that's it.

    Two is a handful too many

    I don't know what these folks believe in and the top search at Google is excerpted as "At the core of Scientology is a belief that each human has a reactive mind that responds to life's traumas, clouding the analytic mind and keeping us from experiencing reality."

    Me: "Oh, so they eat dehydrated food. Mmmk."

    He's written at least two science fiction golden age classics. That's two more than most cult leaders. So give the guy a break!

    When they get mad when you're not into what they are into. Example: throwing a huge fit because you don't want to wear a skull face mask but they like it and want me to wear one too and I refuse to 😑

    tbf though, at the end of the day, are their beliefs really any stranger than any of the others out there?

    besides. Tom Cruise man. he's prob the best working actor alive today.

    well. aside from DDL I guess

    Best actor? Vince Vaughn. And while I just found out he's Roman Catholic, it has no bearing on my choice 🤣 It has never occurred to me to look up the religions of celebrities. I have a fun weekend project now.

    And, yes, @iMago, we all believe weird stuff. That's a human thing. I hold it against no one.

    My interpretation of what is touted to be the core beliefs of Scientology really did make me think of dehydrated food... instantly. See what I did there?

    That’s where you make people pay for recipes instead of giving them away for free

    So if you wanna support my recipes I have a great holiday discount. Do you like feet?

    he was actually a pretty interesting dude, whether or not you choose to see Scientology as a cult or not. like he helped Jack Parsons (who was also a very interesting dude) with the Babalon Working, a ritual that Parsons thought would bring forth the goddess Babalon to Earth. pretty much all of which was originally inspired by Aleister Crowley.

    Pop culture, in general? Or Friends, specifically? If the latter, I mean... 🤷🏿‍♀️

    That show creeped me out just with the clapping part of the intro theme. Surely, viewers don't have to ALL clap along while simultaneously giggling. If nothing else, that has to be part of a New World Order community initiative.

    I'm just saying: stay woke ✊🏿

    And good vibes only 😭
