Hail fellow Thetans
All this Tom Cruise talk made me decide to find out more about Scientology... I always had an idea it was screwy, but not this screwy.
Apparently all humans have invisible alien spirits attached to them and they are the cause of human problems. Something to do with the past having billions of surplus beings from other planets who were herded to earth and slaughtered by an evil alien called Xenu. These dead beings are supposed to haunt us and are the cause of all our damnations.
Then I got a bit confused. Although we're human beings, we are also in fact immortal aliens called Thetans and the whole point of our human existence is to become “clear” (ie to free the Thetan within you from the influence of evil Engrams). They say that the only way to rid ourselves of Engrams is to submit to the control of the Church of Scientology and use a lie-detector-like thing called an E-Meter regularly.
?!
Like I said it's screwy.
