I don't get the big deal either. A religious person thinks that his particular brand of faith holds the answers - well don't they all ?
I think it slightly odd how people who believe in a God coming to earth to be nailed to a plank of wood and can be fought off with iron chariots find anything to mock.
From the outside looking in, those are all equally odd things.
Indeed, if you get past the slightly odd grin, what does Tom seem to be saying?
That too many people are standing by and not taking action to change things, that too many people are overly negative and surrounding yourself with negative people is liking to make you feel negative etc etc.
quote:Most religions point away from the self and look to something else in which to improve the self. Cruise and Scientology looks at the self as if it is the answer for all of the major questions of life.
So what? The practical outcome is the same,someone saying "my religion is the one with the answers".
