I am a Roman Catholic. I believe in the power of psychiatry to help heal depression and mental illness in addition to spiritual solutions. I believe that if I want to scream during childbirth, it's my right. I believe that I am on a journey with Jesus not aliens.
Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against Scientologists and their right to believe whatever they believe. I have a problem with certain Scientologists who loudly and insistently tell everyone how much better they are than the rest of the world.
I will name names. I can't stand Tom Cruise. I own exactly one of his movies. "Top Gun". I won't ever buy another one and I won't be seeing any of his new work. He has yet to realize that it is one thing to live out your faith joyfully so that others might see it and proselytizing in such a way that it demeans others. Going on the "Today" show and arguing with Matt Lauer and telling Brooke Shields to "get over it" in reference to her post-partum depression are just two of the examples in which Mr Cruise has shown that for him, his religion is a sign of his "greatness" over us fellow mere mortals.
Well, Mr Cruise, I'm napping on the sofa you jumped off of. And I am praying for you. May God have mercy on both of our souls.
