This is the bigoted statement to which I was refering.
Replace the word "Scientology" with Catholicism, Islam, Buddhism, etc and try and tell me thats not a bigoted remark.

I was critical of Cruise's comments, I wasn't critical of Scientology. The guy can believe whatever he wants to, but I have a problem with him lamblasting other people for their medical problems and decisions. He's not a doctor and his holier-than-thou attitude is nasty. It wouldn't matter if he was spouting it off from a position of Catholicism or Buddhism. It's still intolerant.
I could care less what anyone believes, but throwing statements around about medicine and science is, frankly, dangerous.

Funny, it's one of the few times NBC and I have ever agreed on anything related to religion, but it is odd that that same statement would be considered horrid if it was said about various other religions.

I guess we are all slightly blind to our own hypocrisies, especially if we happen to agree. I know I agree too with nbc on that remark, but it doesn't make him more right or wrong, it just makes me wrong for doing just that.
Ah, we're all intolerant in some way.

But these sort of comments from FYM are allowed? Why, because they refer to religion in general and not a particular religion? Sorry, I'm confused..
I think religion is mix of
- psychological fantansy
- mental delusion
- collective illusion caused by cumulative lies subjected during
childhood
For the creators of religion, its like
- a person who wants everyone to worship him or her .. I would first try to tell you "peacefully" , then bribe, then kill.
I mean a person who wants everyone to believe him is suffering
from mental illness.
How else you can explain
- No condoms
- No Homosexuality
- No suicide
- Lot of kids who needs to brainwashed during childhood.
- Kill non-believers
- Religious Wars
- The incentive of "heaven"
- lies
- miracles
I like Tom Cruise now. His insanity has come to the fore. He had no personality before.
i think you seemed to have confused which forum you're in. see, this is zoo station, for discussing television and movies. if you want to discuss religion in general or a specific religion, then by all means go ahead. but not here.MrsSpringsteen said:But these sort of comments from FYM are allowed?

you're right, it wasn't. sorry, i think i totally misinterpreted your reply. i agree with your stance really, i just don't think this is the appropriate thread or forum to be discussing religion in. (i'm not referring to your specific post or anything, but the thread as a whole.)MrsSpringsteen said:Is that really necessary?
