Travolta and Preston Suggest a "Silent Birth" to Katie

http://www.imdb.com/news/wenn/2005-10-07/#celeb4

Scientology couple John Travolta and Kelly Preston are urging Katie Holmes to have a 'silent birth' when she delivers fiance Tom Cruise's baby next year and follow the church's strict doctrines. Scientologists believe children should be brought into the world without any fuss and be allowed to quietly get used to their surroundings. That means no music, no chatting and no expressions of pain from the mother. Preston explains, "It's just because everything in moments of pain is really recorded and you want to have that (the birth) peaceful and clear of sort of suggestions or different words that can then affect them (babies) in their future

Um, can we get a silent pregnancy from them too and how about they just be silent the rest of their marriage which I give 3 years

1. While they're at it, I'd like to see John Revolta

pass a silent and peaceful kidney stone.

God help that poor woman if she should happen to get postpartum depression.

15. I'd like to see John Revolta pass a silent and peaceful kidney stone

My thought exactly.

Well not exactly exactly. I was thinking more of bowling balls and rear ends. But you get the idea...

2. A silent birth--with no drugs?

How about I kick Travolta in the groin and see how silent he is?*




I don't normally advocate violence but his recommendation is so ridiculous I couldn't resist doing so in jest.

3. Did he also suggest that Tom and Katie....

invite xenu to be godfather (or, rather, operating thetan level X father)?

4. My father's ex was in labor for five days with my little sister

I would love for John Travolta and Kelly Preston to explain how she was suppose to do that silently.

5. They really need to shut up! They are making

everyone hate them and Scientology. If she is in pain (which she surely will be) then let her scream her damn head off or whatever the hell she wants to do. They need to STFU!!! :mad:

6. My wife fell asleep during labor.

But, I would pay to see Katie going through the transitition stage and not be yelling her head off. Michelle sat up and said: "Where's my midwife?"

7. Travolta can't act. He is the same char. in every movie. I can't wait

till he is old and doing the stupid Pulp Fiction Dance on Joe Franklin.

8. Why not a C-Section then?

Knock the mom out? I don't care why they think women in labor should shut up, it's not possible without the kind of drugs or medical treatment their religion is against anyway.

9. no expressions of pain from the mother.

:eyes:

10. Three years? So you're an optimist then

I'm hoping it lasts through the kid's 1-year birthday

I think they'll make it till the birth though. They have something to focus on. But the stress of a newborn? LOL

11. I had no drugs but i sure as hell wasn't quiet.

Especially after they promised me an epidural and then later they told me i was too far along, oh the string of curse words they went through that maternity ward.

12. Silent birth and silence for seven days...

These people are delusional. Sounds to me like Scientology hates women.

13. I'm a strong proponent of the Lamaze method

and believe 99% of all the pain --and thus, the yelling -- in labor could be eliminated if all pregnant women learned the Lamaze techniques. But the Lamaze method is a system of techniques for coping with labor and childbirth with full awareness and minimal pain. You have to learn and practice in advance.

Does scientology offer such a method, or support Lamaze, or is it all "Shut up, woman, you're scaring the baby"?

(I did hear that Tom said it would be OK if she moaned some. What a guy!)


I agree that it would be nice if they'd be silent about their entire marriage, which I'd give two years at best.

14. No expressions of pain?

Who do these fuckers think they are?

And let me guess, this stupid rule was thought up by a man right? (I am a man and I have enough sense not to give out any advice on pregnancy and giving birth to my pregnant girlfriend)
