INCLUSION & RESPECT
My heart’s desire this Mother's Day—and every day of the year—is for a world full of love, inclusivity and tolerance. Tolerance starts at home.
SCIENTOLOGY RELIGION
As a Scientologist, I’ve had people ask me what “Clear” means in my religion. And now that I have achieved the State of Clear, I thought I would answer what it means to me.
ANTI-RELIGIOUS PROPAGANDA
Netflix’s recent three-part documentary, Murder Among the Mormons, is just the latest in a long line of mainstream media attacks against religion which perpetuate harmful stereotypes. Unfortunately, such stereotypes fuel “other-ness” and hate against minority groups.
TOLERANCE
That date was June 14, 1965. Years before I was born and many years before I became a Scientologist, on that day Scientology was declared by its founder to be free of any political allegiance.
SCIENTOLOGY RELIGION
Being a mom is my very favorite job. Full disclosure: I wasn’t sure I wanted to be a mom. I love my work and did not know if I could balance work and parenthood. I wasn’t entirely sure if I would be “maternal” enough. But then my little surprise came along and changed everything.
TOLERANCE
Do people have prejudices? Unfortunately, absolutely. Do we have the right to broadcast our personal prejudices to others, and in a hateful way? I think not.
TOLERANCE
Laugh if you want, but he seriously felt like a friend. He came in the door singing. He changed his sweater and his shoes. He fed the fish. He dog-sat for a neighbor, got mail delivered, and showed me all around his neighborhood. He invited me to join him, via his trolley, in a land of make-believe.
SCIENTOLOGY RELIGION
Sometimes the bar isn’t set very high, like the year my son said that his primary objective for the next 12 months was to “take more warm baths.”
RELIGIOUS LITERACY
Let me just start by saying I’m about as girlie of a girl as anyone I’ve ever known. A dress is my attire of choice, even during many forms of exercise, and I absolutely love makeup.
RELIGIOUS LITERACY
Religious people live longer. There’s plenty of scientific evidence to support that statement, and if you click on the link you can read about several.
