John Travolta has a lot of nerve. While out promoting his latest project, "Wild Hogs," Travolta commented on the current media frenzy surrounding the recently deceased Anna Nichole Smith. He suggested notion that Smith would still be alive today if only she had inlisted the help of Scientology's controversial drug rehab program, Narconon.
“We could have helped her with Narconon but didn’t get a chance to," Travolta said. "I wish we had.”
What Travolta is doing here is such a blatant slap to the face of anyone who loved or revered this former celebrity. In effect, he is waving her death in the faces of her friends and family and saying, "Hey, too bad she never called us. We could have kept her from dying." To me, that would be the equivalent of me saying to someone, "Hey, too bad she never came to know Jesus. Now she's in hell." It's a horrible thing to say to someone in their time of grief! Especially a time that is being made so public.
Not to mention the fact that Narconon is dangerous junk science and its methods have never been published or subjected to scientific validation. Addicts are forced to quit cold turkey rather than detoxification (which medical experts suggest is dangerous), consume massive amounts of vitamins, and spend several hours at a time in a sauna in order to "sweat out" the toxins.
