I am with you on that one Sponge, using the Christain Ministers sd sm example of religions that ask for money from their followers was moronic because some of them went to jail for fraud too. There were several TV evangelists that were exposed. Pluuuuease  |

I don't think Chris Cuomo was just playing Scilon shill. I think the conversation before the taping went something like this:
| Quote: | CHRIS CUOMO: Okay, Father, we're doing a piece on the space alien nuts at Scientology and we can't just spend the entire segment laughing at them. One of us has to take their side and you're the minister so....
FATHER BECK: Noooo... I'm not going to say that garbage from a dead science fiction writer is a legitimate religion. Besides, you're the one who spent all the time preparing and you know how to pronounce... what is it.... theetans?
CUOMO: Thetans, Father...
BECK: Right, rhymes with Satan. See why I can't do it?
CUOMO: Okay, I have to take the role of objective journalist on this one and play devil's advocate....
BECK: Or thetan's advocate....
CUOMO: Good one! But you're buying drinks after we tape, and I'm ordering a really expensive single malt Scotch. |

I had similar thoughts too. It was done very badly though. _________________ http://forums.whyweprotest.net
