The utterly pointless Peaches Geldof has just given me yet another reason to hate celebrity culture: You know what I'm intrigued by? Like, space and wormholes and Stephen Hawking's theories and Richard Dawkins's theories. I’ve always been really interested in quantum physics, and how we came to be and why. Which is how I guess I got involved in spirituality and stuff, and the religious path I chose to go down. The "religious path" she is on? Scientology. D'oh. She reads Dawkins and becomes a Scientologist. Really not very smart. "Give us your fooking money" is exactly what the Church of Scientology will be saying. 2009-10-29T20:39:16ZUntitled entry permalink
