How is Mormonism like Scientology? The only commonality I see is that they are both based on the writings of one man. However, after that, Mormons have SIGNIFICANTLY different beliefs. We have many in our area, and a coworker is a religion teacher for the Mormon church, so I'm pretty secure in her explanations.

Another interesting source for the history of LDS is Jon Krakauers' book Under the Banner of Heaven. My coworker doesn't agree with all of what he writes -- but he was really focusing on the section of LDS members who went to the extreme right (polygamy, etc.) -- not the "mainstream" church. Good book!

That and the belief that every man gets to become god .

Just as I was reading about it, I noticed some similarities, that is all.

No big deal.

escapee, if you read the scientology link (i know you posted it, but the info. you posted was not from there), you can read their beliefs.

also, you posted above:

" and John Travolta has gone from Vinny Barbarino to L Ron Hubbard, and with him he is draggin along Tom."
--------
just so you know....John Travolta did not drag Tom. Mimi Rogers got him in. Her father was a Scientologist and so was Mimi Rogers when she got Tom in. So, Mimi got Tom in, not John (wow, listen to me..all these people on a first name basis as if i KNOW them lol). As you say, no big deal.

So, let's get back to Mamie's question:

WHAT ABOUT BEYONCE'S FATHER?

Apparently, Beyonce's father was having an affair with one of her backup dancers. So Beyonce fired him as her manager. I think that story came from Wendy Williams, so I'm not sure about its reliability, but it's certain that he's not her manager any longer.

Oh and FWIW, I've taken a course at the Kabbalah Center in LA. I don't know what's so "out there" about it. It's an ancient part of Judaism and Madonna is hardly the "mother" of it. Hell, Roseanne Barr was doing it years before her.

Who didn't see this coming?

Garth Brooks, Trisha Yearwood Engaged
May 26, 8:09 AM EST



The Associated Press

BAKERSFIELD, Calif. -- Garth Brooks stole the show Wednesday night when he got down on one knee in front of 7,000 fans and proposed to fellow country music star Trisha Yearwood.

She said yes — and the crowd went wild.

The occasion was the "Legends in Bronze" event at Buck Owens' Crystal Palace, where 10 larger-than-life bronze statues honoring country stars were unveiled, including one of Brooks.

After his big moment, Brooks popped the question.

The marriage will be the second for Brooks, who has three children, and the third for Yearwood, said Brooks' spokeswoman Nancy Seltzer.

Brooks, 43, is credited with widening the genre's appeal in the 1990s by merging traditional country with honky tonk, pop, folk and rock. His "Ropin' the Wind" album was the first such country recording to debut at the top of the pop music charts. His latest album, "Scarecrow," went triple platinum.

Yearwood, 40, was named the Country Music Awards female vocalist of the year in 1997 and 1998. Her latest album is "Jasper County."

Other musicians honored with bronze statues were Buck Owens, Willie Nelson, Merle Haggard, Hank Williams, Bob Wills, Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley, George Jones and George Strait.

I was wondering when the Cruise/Spielberg movie was coming out and last night I saw a ad for it; it will be here on June 29th. I was gonna say a few snarky things about what Tom will do till then, but I won't.
