Kirstie Alley Says Scientology's "Fun." Sure, But Only If You Are A Celebrity - Page 2
Kirstie Alley: We just pick another body. We go to the nearest hospital where women are giving birth, find some good-looking parents and jump in. I don't think there's a rest period, though there might be a confusion period if you were killed in an accident and knocked out of your body. It would all depend on the shape you're in as a spiritual being, which is our natural state. The better the shape you're in, the less confusion. At least that would be my hope. This is just a prison planet--and here's what it takes to get out: a Get Out of Jail Free card or a Get Off of Planet Earth Free card. You should have one in your wallet or purse at all times, just in case. You know how we're all looking for the big secret in life? That's it.
PLAYBOY: As a Scientologist, you must own an e-meter. What happens when your non-Scientologist friends come over and want to play with it?
Kirstie Alley: I own three. I do the pinch test with them. When somebody's not a Scientologist, they want to know what an e-meter is. All an e-meter does is help a person locate moments of pain or unconsciousness and disagreement. It doesn't tell right or wrong, it locates moments. For the pinch test I have them hold the e-meter cans. Then I show them the meter face, the dial. Then I pinch them. When I do, the dial reacts. The needle jumps. Then I say, "OK, good. Recall that pinch." They think of the pinch and the needle jumps again--without the actual pinch. You think again and again about the pinch, and each time the needle jumps less until the memory of it isn't painful anymore. Finally I'll say, "Recall that pinch," and the needle will "float," just move back and forth, and my friend remembers no pain. A new pinch starts it all over again, but that would be a new pinch.
PLAYBOY: When you were a kid, what did your friends say about you that you hated but which has now become an asset in your life?
