“All I want to know is who gets the P-51 Mustang he owns.”
Let him keep it, but he has to fly it himself at least once a month...I had a cousin, WWII pilot, who owned a P-51...he met his Maker when he crashed it...see, problems solved :)
Whiny little bitch aren’t you?
Note grumpy ‘lil feller, FR was fine without you for more than a decade and will be fine after you are gone.
It's quite evident when you read L. Ron Hubbard's writings, particularly the older stuff like Dianetics, which says homosexuality is a serious "aberration." Hubbard despised gays. Heck, just the stereotypical gay characters in Mission Earth are so over-the-top repulsive that in itself it makes the series virtually unreadable. (It's not the books' only flaw of course—finding fault with Mission Earth is like finding hay in a haystack—but it's easily one of their most execrable features.)
Doesn't this describe all heterosexual men after their first few years of marriage?
Is he gonna jump up and down on Oprah’s couch, again?
I do not know of a single case of Scientology 2-D (couples) counseling that did not result in the breakup of the couple.
I actually have no idea what you're talking about. What does Suri (age 6) have to do with Sec Checks? I assume you're meant security checks? What are you talking about? What type of Security checks, done by whom, and what does that mean. Is this something associated with the Scientology mumbo jumbo?
And what do you mean Tom wanted Suri to sign a billion year contract? With who, and for doing what?
This posting was very confusing, perhaps because I don't know, nor do I care about Hellywood celebs in their new age celeb cults.
I really could care less about Tom Cruise, or Katie Holmes, or even the daughter Suri (WTH is that name?), who will grow up to be another aimless, drifting celeb daughter who will show up in the tabloids periodically.
I couldn't finish the first book of that series. It was terrible. Paradoxically, Battlefield Earth is one of my favorite (if not my top favorite) sci fi novels of all time. I have read a LOT of sci-fi novels, too. I didn't even know Scientology existed when I read it the first time in the mid-eighties. He wasn't pushing it in that book at all as far as I could tell.
"Doesn't this describe all heterosexual men after their first few years of marriage?"
OMG, I certainly hope not! MOST men do not turn to homosexuality, after the first few years of marriage - at least I don't think so.
Are you serious? (Or just being a silly guy?)
Holy smoke, what went on with the 7 posts before yours? 7 posts removed by the moderator? I think that’s a new record on Freep.
That’s how people act when they are lying and want to convince somebody something is true. That whole marriage was a sham.
According to scientology dogma, Suri, like you and me, is a spiritual being who is billions of years old.
I assume you're meant security checks?
Yes, that's what a sec check is.
What are you talking about? What type of Security checks, done by whom, and what does that mean.
A sec check is a series of questions asked of a member who is "on the meter". In the hands of a skilled practitioner an E-Meter can be used to detect areas of stress just below the level of conscious awareness and guide a subject to confronting and handling that stress.
It can also be used as something of a lie detector, in a sec check.
In a sec check a whole series of questions (hundreds maybe?) are asked relating to considering committing acts against Scientology, its founder, staff, technology, reputation and facilities. Questions can also be asked about knowing of anyone else's intentions.
A sec check does NOT have the confidentiality protections and restrictions that a normal counseling session would.
Is this something associated with the Scientology mumbo jumbo?
Big time.
Not THAT that, but a need to get away from the b, uh, lady in question and breathe free for a few with ones friends who are in the same boat.
I'm told that there vast amounts of alcohol consumed and considerable commiseration happens.
I wouldn't know, my ex had me on far to short a leash to allow me out of her sight...
Scientology encourages you to reveal all your secrets as part of the audit process. They then use those secrets to blackmail you while promising to help you deal with and/or hide them.
The standard contract for Sea Org members is one billion years.
Doing what?
Whatever the Church deems appropriate. At $17/month, plus room, board and whatever training and/or counseling they see fit to provide.
I posted this:
"Well, let's just say it appears he is happy when he is with someone besides his wife, and someone who is a different 'gender' than his wife."

"Doesn't this describe all heterosexual men after their first few years of marriage?"
Although I wouldn't doubt that Scientology would abuse this if it served the church's needs, I know of no case where they have.
OTOH, anything discovered in a sec check is fair game. The mechanics of a sec check look identical to those of a session, only they start with the disclaimer "I am not auditing you"...
I believe SOuth Park had it right... maybe now he can come out da closet
Yes, I would have looked delighted to just be away from her for a few minutes or hours, no matter who I was with, or even alone!
