I was just on Skype with my bro, who is of course still stuck in Turin unable to get home, Shroud Woo Woo notwithstanding. And we were just chatting about various stuff when for some reason Scientology entered the conversation.
Both of us had the same idea at the same time. Are the Scientologists going crazy because of L.Ron's paranoid mythology of bad Body Thetans emerging from volcanos and causing humans horrible distress and taking over their bodies? Are there Scientologists all over the world hunkered down in bunkers fearing the end of the world? This idea tickled me so much that I decided to write a meme about this very subject and set it loose on the Internet, to see how long it would take to "echo" back to me. So I started researching Xenu and volcanos and Body Thetans, and then I thought to check whether anyone *else* had hit upon this wild hair idea. So I Googled "Thetans AND volcanos" and to my mild disappointment but my overall pleasure discovered that I was NOT the first to make such a connection or start such a meme. >From a post today on alt.religion.scientology: Europeans Beware - Thetans from Iceland volcano might body-snatch with a vengeance. From: Gregory Hall, Esq. Just imagine the millions or billions of disembodied thetans trying to find bodies as they rain down on Europe from the volcano in Iceland. The authorities aren't telling anybody but the REAL reason aircraft won't fly is not because of a little dust. It's because of all those thetans exiled for billions of years by the Xenu in the Earth's volcanoes. Aircraft certainly aren't proof against them. Stay indoors, don't expose yourself to this clear and present danger. :-)
