Sorry but considering the topic at hand, it's impossible not to mention scientology. (the entire discussion has to do with isaac hayes belief in scientology)

Re: Issac Hayes didn't quit Southpark

I recommend you pick up the Rolling Stone issue with the snowboarder on the cover; it has a 12 page article about Scientology that is the most in-depth article anyone has ever published. It was written with the help of ex-Scientologists as well as the actual church. It will creep you out, but at least you'll understand it more. I picked it up yesterday at the PX here on base. I don't know how new the issue is, since I'm in Iraq, but look for it.

What's the month on the cover? I'm definitely curious to read that stuff. I feel bad too cause I use to look at Tom Cruise as a cool "light" guy and all. Seems like most of the cool "light" guys seem to have glaring "problems" with themselves.

On another note, wasn't MSN trying to remove itself from NBC just a few months ago? I think there was an article talking about how it wasn't beneficial like they thought it was going to be and are really trying to get out of their contract or something like that. Which news is the legit news? Fox or MSNBC??

Without getting political, Fox, MSNBC, CNN, ABC, all of them have legit news. (foxnews has a better layout than msnbc IMO, so I visit there most of the time...they also always have the breaking news first...I also visit yahoo, unless you are talking about on the TV?)

Wow, thanks for the links guys, i've been reading on this cult. And I thought the Jehovah's Witnesses were the nuttiest cult (alot of people in my family are members of the Witnesses so I know firsthand) but I do believe they've just been trumped. What a bunch of "out there" ideas they have.

Why use the word "cult"?

You give those beliefs such a bad connotation. Scientology, though weird to us, is still a religion to those that follow it. It's not some silly cult. A lot of time and energy was spent in developing their system of beliefs and quite honestly, when you get down to the grit of it all, they want exactly what everyone else wants.

Exactly. I agree with everything you said except for not using the word cult.

It's just a different kind of cult than the other ones. "Cult" does sound bad but by one defintion all it means is: "A system or community of religious worship and ritual."

It's true they want exactly what everyone else wants, but if you've read anything about Scientology you'd understand that it's goes beyond normal cults. However, I don't like making fun of scientology...just like I don't like making fun of the Christian fundamentalists or whatever. Hell, half the country thinks Jesus is coming back.

I'm glad the chef is still a cool guy.

Below are the definitions of cult according to dictionary.com.....personally I've always thought of a cult as a combo of 1 and 2.....that is, a minority group of people with a set of defined religious beliefs that are non-mainstream and considered by the majority to be extremist and/or false. So although some people may consider it to be an insult, it's really not so much as just saying that the person who uses it does not believe or agree with what this group in question believes.


A religion or religious sect generally considered to be extremist or false, with its followers often living in an unconventional manner under the guidance of an authoritarian, charismatic leader.
The followers of such a religion or sect.
A system or community of religious worship and ritual.
The formal means of expressing religious reverence; religious ceremony and ritual.
A usually nonscientific method or regimen claimed by its originator to have exclusive or exceptional power in curing a particular disease.

Obsessive, especially faddish, devotion to or veneration for a person, principle, or thing. The object of such devotion. An exclusive group of persons sharing an esoteric, usually artistic or intellectual interest.
