View Full Version : Where is Issac Hayes' Soul?
I figured this would get a little too religious for the Frontroom, but here's a nice summation of the afterlife according to Scientology (http://www.slate.com/id/2197279/?from=rss):
Singer Isaac Hayes died on Sunday at the age of 65. Besides being a sex symbol, a soul-music legend, and a beloved voice-over artist, Hayes was also a dedicated Scientologist. According to his religious beliefs, what happens to Hayes now that he's passed away?
His soul will be "born again into the flesh of another body," as the Scientology Press Office's FAQ puts it. The actual details of how that rebirth occurs is not fully understood by church outsiders, but some core beliefs of Scientology are that every human being is really an immortal spiritual being known as a thetan and that the "meat bodies" we inhabit are merely vessels we shed upon death. (Members of the elite church cadre known as Sea Org, for example, sign contracts that pledge a billion years of service throughout successive lives.) [...]
In a widely reprinted 1990 Los Angeles Times article, Hubbard was quoted (apparently from a lecture given in the 1950s) describing how, after death, a thetan is carried to a "landing station" on Venus, where it is "programmed with lies," put in a capsule, and then "dumped" back on Earth, where it wanders in search of a baby to inhabit.
Seems perfectly clear to this lemur. Hail Xenu!

A BILLION YEARS OF SERVICE?!? :inquisitive: :dizzy2: Geez Louise, looks like the Thetans need a players' union. Maybe one day free agency will allow them to sign with Buddha or Jesus...
Seems perfectly clear to this lemur. Hail Xenu!
I for one welcome our reincarnated funkadelic overlords...
So does Scientology believe in karma when it comes to reincarnation?
I find it truly shocking that seemingly intelligent people fall for this drivel.
When Sea Org members die, do they get charged over and over again to join the church and advance through the OT levels? Or is there a secret hand-stamp saying that they have already paid up?
Edit-> Almost forgot, Hail Xenu!

Hail Xenu...
His soul is currently battling a brigade of Morman elite guard at the gates a Kolab in the inner galactic circle.

If I had to bet money on it I'd say; probably burning in hell.

Where is Issac Hayes' Soul?
It's in a vat slathered in Hot Butter (http://www.amazon.com/Hot-Buttered-Soul-Isaac-Hayes/dp/B000000ZGO). May he rest in peace.

In your imagination with the tooth fairy and santa claus...
Hail Xenu!
El-Ron personally explains Xenu (http://gawker.com/5037013/the-history-of-xenu-as-explained-by-l-ron-hubbard-himself-in-8-minutes). Listen to the tape before the Church sues it out of existence.

Yeah ... funny Dave. :beam:
Still, it doesn't top the 'pull my finger' joke you did a while back.
Nah Hayes, rides on the back of a horse warming the funbags of a beautiful woman, heading for Asgard. :mellow:

Bah. He's slowly turning to dust, and that's it. :smash:

Remove the element of faith from ANY religion and they're all reduced to "drivel".

:yes:
Oh, ye Norse of little faith :no:

Hehe, with his lack of faith one would assume that the jotuns and the trolls are tearing him apart right now; well outside Asgard.
His soul?
It's right here in my playlist!
While I don't think is soul lives on in Venus, Hell, ... If there is something of his soul living it is in fact in his music.
Long live Xena, err Xenu!

We should make our own religion called the Sea .org. We should worship camels, headsoup, and protect the holy words 'Ni', 'Peng', 'Neewom' and of course 'Gah'.
Hail the camels!

Whatever his beliefs, I hope it's somewhere nice. The man's wonderful contribution to music means he deserves it.
