John Travolta Neglects His Son

John Travolta, shown above kissing some dude, has a son who's widely rumored to be autistic (though undiagnosed). But his family's Scientologist beliefs won't acknowledge autism. Instead, Travolta and his wife, Kelly Preston, insist that their son has something similar to Kawasaki Syndrome, which he's gotten from bad reactions to carpet cleaning chemicals.

And to think, what with all the hoopla surrounding Tom Cruise, I'd thought that John Travolta was the comparably sane high-profile Scientologist. This just goes to show that such a person unequivocally does not exist. Denying your child care for his autism is child abuse. Forcing a young actress to be your sex slave and bear your children is kidnapping and sexual abuse. Asserting on behalf of these insane people that they're just normal folks is enabling.

Seriously. Scientology is an affliction. At first it was just funny. Like, "Hey, look at those silly celebrities who believe in the stupid religion invented by the bad sci-fi author." But now it's getting out there just how dangerous it is, and it shouldn't be given a free ride just because it's a religion. It hurts people.
