John Travolta flies Scientologist ministers, medics to Haiti quake victims
George Clooney may be getting all all the big names to donate time to his Hope for Haiti telethon Friday night. Heck, he's even gotten "Twilight" star Robert Pattinson onboard.
But actor John Travolta has arranged for a plane to take some some volunteer ministers, supplies and medics to Haiti to help the survivors of last week's earthquake.
"My church has also arranged for 80 medicos and 33 volunteers to go down," he tells US Weekly. So what will the Scientologists do in Haiti?
Maybe exactly what they did after 9/11 and other tragedies.
According to Gawker, Scientology's yellow-shirted "volunteer ministers" performed their religion's "purification rundowns" on recovery workers after 9/11, administered "touch assists" to tsunami victims and gave out literature after the Virginia Tech shooting.
No word on whether they are making headway warning the quake survivors about the dangers of psychiatry and psychiatric drugs.
Let's hope they left the E-Meters at home.
George Clooney organizes Haiti telethon. Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie donate $1 million.

You can't tell if a person is spiritually well without an e-meter.
And the Haitians will have to take personality tests, to see where they can improve with Scilontology.
It's fantastic to see John Travolta putting his wealth to good use. I respect him and I respect the scientologists who are going to one of the worst disaster scenes in recent years.
That takes some confront.
Bravo! I hope that they are able to assist in getting the people what they need. From what I read in the paper over the weekend there is so much confusion and disorganization. Bless all of you who go there to do what you can. I hope that I can do the same for you sometime.
Good for Travolta! Gawker is a rag and has zero credibility as a news source. Nobody listens to them, they have had an agenda on Scientology for a long time. I'm sure the victims of the earthquake could care less about the religious beliefs of any person helping them survive.
That man is doing a great thing. The Scientology Volunteer Ministers have done amazing things to calm people down, and make them feel physically better during times of disaster. I salute them for what they do. :]
Anyone with any other viewpoint, honestly has no idea what they are talking/ranting about.
(By the way, the last jibe about the e-meters did naught but make the writer look idiotic.)
So who are those "medicos"?
And what are the "supplies"?
Haiti needs water and real medicine. They do not need scientology pamphlets and quackery like "touch assists".
It's easy enough to know what type of assistance is being provided by Scientology Volunteer Ministers. Google the last 3 words of the 1st sentence. Check out the section on assists for injuries as one of the key areas of assistance.
Very Well Done to John Travolta and the volunteer ministers.
The Haitians always had bad luck, now even their families will be destroyed by the Cult of Greed an Sin's family disconnection policies.
But now the Ronbots will have uneducated Haitians KIDS to enslave.
There is no end to Haitian suffering.

"Sympathy is a low tone emotion. People pull in their bad fortune. Reward low stats and you get low stats." I heard these statements frequently when I was a member. I am inclined to believe that whatever Scientology does will be with great fanfare and done to convince a world that they are something other than what they really are, a greedy cult.
