Re: Ocala.com - "Host of celebrities attend service for Jett Travolta" 10 minutes? Somehow a 10 minute service just doesn't feel long enough for me. Is that all a human life is worth to scientology - 10 whole minutes? Hell, even Andy Warhol gave people at least 15. Also, can anyone tell in the photo if that is scilon security or local?
Re: Ocala.com - "Host of celebrities attend service for Jett Travolta" Where do you get 10 minutes? I read that article twice and I don't see anywhere that the service only lasted 10 minutes.
Re: Ocala.com - "Host of celebrities attend service for Jett Travolta" Even if it is only 10 minutes, it's not our place to criticize how they grieve. I still have no doubt that Travolta loved his son dearly - even if he mistakenly allowed Hubbard's 'tech' to kill him. If you want to go after this angle, I suggest following the angle of 'Scientology says you shouldn't grieve, because OTs feel no pain or grief or guilt or shame.' But don't suggest that Travolta himself doesn't miss his son.
