Funny stuff. Did you make similar jokes when her son died at age 16?

Hey, it's what they believe and they take it seriously and not as a joke. If I said that someone died they would tell me that I was joking because they believe that humans/ thetans live forever to fight evil Xenu.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

I wonder about them and the Scientology stuff. There were issues with the son that it is said they didn't get medical treatment for because of Scientology. Since Kelly was being seen at MD Anderson it appears that breast cancer treatments are either allowed or the Travoltas changed their view a bit on using medical science to treat physical issues.

I was rather under the impression it was only psychiatric medical treatment that is verboten under Scientology...

That may be the case. I am certainly not any sort of expert on that kind of woo.
I am pretty sure he (Jett) died of a seizure and that he had been diagnosed with Kawasaki disease and had a history of seizures due to that.
Just wondering out loud why if they are more accepting of medical science since his death.

Jett Travolta was under regular medical care from the age of 15 months. His father called an ambulance when the boy suffered the head injury that led to his death.

Okay...I misremembered then. And looking at articles available online now you can get six different answers as to the existence of a head injury.
Sad, either way that two kids have lost their mother.
