What are these people smoking??!!

When it comes to religion and sex, I'm pretty much a "whatever floats your boat" kinda gal. I have my limits, of course. Case in point: Tom Cruise & Katie Holmes.

First of all, I gotta wonder how a nice little Catholic girl winds up with a whack job like Tom Cruise. Sure, he's a star. Yeah, he's got more money than he knows what to do with. Whatever. Who cares? He hasn't really been cute since he was dancing in his BVDs in Risky Business. Add to that the fact that he's missing a few french fries out of his Happy Meal. Again, I have to ask...HOW does a nice little Catholic girl wind up with a whack job like that?

By now, everyone knows they plan on "silent childbirth." Only a man would come up with an idea as hair-brained as that. SILENT?? The girl is gonna be pushing something the size of a watermelon out a hole the size of a lemon without any drugs and they think she's gonna be able to remain silent? I don't have any kids myself, but I was present when my godson, Joshua, was born. I think it's safe to say the only way childbirth can be silent is if you're out cold.

And last week I read that not only will the birth be silent, but they won't talk to the baby for a week. Not one word. You spend 9 months growing a human being and then refuse to talk to it for a week?? The only thing nuttier than that is the reasoning behind it. Apparently, they feel babies come into the world with their own ideas and agendas and shouldn't be distracted. HUH?! These people obviously have access to way better drugs than I ever did. Anyone that's spent any time at all near an infant knows that babies have the attention span of a gnat.

And from what I understand, Tom has gone all gestapo on Katie. She has a curfew, isn't allowed to jog anymore, I guess she is only allowed to eat organic food and she's not allowed to wear anything sexy. Apparently, sexy clothes are disrespectful to the baby.

Nuttier than a fruitcake, that's all I can say.
