Bart Simpson Actress Gives $10 Million to Scientology

[Ichingcarpenter]

Longtime Scientologist Nancy Cartwright — best known as the voice of Bart Simpson — last year gave the church $10 million to help spread the word of founder L. Ron Hubbard into other galaxies.

It was all part of Scientology’s Global Salvage effort, which aims to “de-aberrate” Earth — meaning to rid mankind of psychology ills and other “aberrant” behavior.

Surprisingly, Nancy, 50, forked over twice as much as the Scientology’s most prominent member, Tom Cruise, who only gave $5 million in an installment plan.

Money well spent :eyes:

3. Why, you little ...! n/t

4. That sucks.

$10 million to that cult? I'm very disappointed in you, Man.

5. Creepy. I met her once and she seemed sane.

:shrug:

[Sugar Smack]

6. NO FREAKING WAY! You can make THAT much money as a

cartoon voice-over??? OMG, sign me up!

Also, WTF about the scientology? Is she freaking crazy? Will she start making Bart say outrageous things?

8. They get 360,000 per episode.

16. And they have done about 360,000 episodes. So yeah, she has made a lot.

7. Sad when people turn out to be idiots

feh.

9. I wonder if Harry Shearer will bring this up on his radio show.

Or is he a secret Scientologist?

[Mike Daniels]

14. Would Nancy do an Issac Hayes if The Simpsons did a spoof on Scientology?

Given the amount of spoofing the progam has done on other religions and cults would Nancy up and quit if the program took aim at her faith like Hayes did with South Park?

10. Exactly why do entertainers seem so susceptible to Scientology?

Does the idea of alien spirits disembarking from a 707 over a volcano speak especially to them?

12. It's a way for lots of actors to get jobs

The Scientologists have a huge network of people throughout the entertainment industry and belonging to the "church" can get your foot in the door or revitalize a flagging career. On a Cruise film, for example, which he produces, he can hire Scientologist "craft services," Scientologist actors, Scientologist hair and makeup people, etc. In a business where access is everything, the very concerted effort to woo the Hollywood crowd gives aspiring members of the biz something no amount of talent or beauty can: an open door.

15. I just. don't. get. it.

What the fuck is wrong with these people? Does Scientology pray upon people with dark scary skeletons in their closets which would ruin their careers? Why/how else could anyone fall for this shit other than being blackmailed into submission? These have got to be the most stupid people on earth outside of CU and FR.

18. Make a contribution and you get a better seat.

Bow to Leper Messiah.

19. As of this moment I am officially having a cow.

And henceforth I shall root for Nelson Munce

20. Muh, it's her money to piss away.

instead of giving unto the ponzi scam, she COULD have just set up a foundation of her own, but alas that would probably piss off some fucked up alien god or something.
