Captain's Log:
Another slow day at work. Hardly anyone came in today, because they wanted the four day weekend. Who can blame them?
I am very tired for I went to see Pirates of the Caribbean 3 last night at the 12:03 showing and the movie is 2 hours and 45 minutes in length. The movie was very good, except that the storyline jumped around a lot and was slow at first. Personally, I liked Spider-man 3 more than POC 3, but they were both good. The theater that we were in last night was especially warm and I started to fall asleep during the film. Of course, the end leaves the storyline slightly open so that if they decide to make a fourth movie, they have a story already in place.
Last night I finally finished Harry Potter 5, so that is my third book of the month and twenty-fourth of the year. I dropped it off today and picked up the sixth book. I have already passed my page total for 2004 in the first five months of 2007; I have read over 10,500 pages this year.
I was not busy at work today, so I read up on the subject of Scientology, because there was an article about Tom Cruise and his cult in the news the other day. That is a very messed up belief system. Apparently, a creature known as Lord Xenu threw these alien creatures into volcanoes and then when they died and their souls left their bodies he sucked them up into a giant floating vacuum. He then preceded to brainwash them with a movie for 36 days that fed them misinformation and confused them. After the 36 days, he released the thetans (alien souls) and they latched onto human beings, creating human confusion and becoming the cause of all disharmony in the world...
So, all humans have to do now is pay money to be audited with an e-meter to detect one's thetan level and try and reduce the disharmony and confusion in each individual. With each thetan that a person conquers they "grow" more in the "religion" and progress through the OT (Operating Thetan) levels (1-8; 9 is unachievable right now apparently). I guess only L. Ron Hubbard was a OT 9 and no one else has been one since. Scientologists also buy into reincarnation of a sort and believe that they have lived countless previous lives. During their audits, all these details of previous lives and occurrences are recorded with the Church of Scientology.
Other religions are anathema to these followers. Christianity, for instance, is viewed as evil and avoided at all costs. Unbelievable.
The believers of this cult also hunt down those who have slanders or disrespected their beliefs. Here are a few documented cases: Operation Freakout, Fair Game. Also, they have no problem blackmailing those who have left the church so that they do not tell the true story of the extortionists who seek to steal your soul and lead you astray into this outright lie.
Now that this is published online, I will invariably be hunted down and silenced by a zealous member of this erroneous cult full of lying fags. For full details on the horror that is Scientology see this article.
I believe that I will be done for today. Angering one crowd of maddingly, misguided morons (note the alliteration) is quite enough for now.
Later,
Lorimer
