< Do you feel she should have the same beliefs as you? >
You have to admit that it sunds like she has no real beliefs. Sounds like a cafeteria plan...a little of this...a little of that.
She's fairly conservative. So, like you, while I don't agree with her musings on spirituality, I think it's good that she's put thought and effort into spiritual life. And I also like that she's an activist for some conservative causes.
Hollywood corrupts almost everyone, so a little weirdness and exhibitionism is to be expected. I'll take Goldie Hawn over Fonda any day.
Sounds like the result of a childhood that was not rooted in any one religion. Face it most of us are one religion or the other because of our family upbringings. It is tribal almost.
they both seem fairly normal despite H'wood. Then again, what the hell do I know?
It works if you state the outcome loosely enough, that you desire to go to a higher plane of existence, whether you call it "heaven," "Jannah," or "Enlightenment."
Sure, she isn't a professional philosopher and will probably be forgotten in another hundred years.
"Last week Goldie spoke with Beliefnet senior editor Deborah Caldwell about her Jewish and Christian upbringing, her adult path as a Buddhist,"
Celebrities have a herd mentality too. They would never admit it but you'll notice how they all fall in line with whatever the other kewl peeple in their social circles are doing, hoping to be or endlessly searching for. Maybe if they could focus and commit on one thing at a time they would understand more instead of flitting around like mindless knats.
"how she forgives paparazzi for taking ugly photographs of her,"
Mustn't let the sheeple learn about those camera tricks and special filters.
" and the first time she made love with actor Kurt Russell"
And we're suppose to care?!! Sorry Goldie, I'm not interested in where your G spot is. Keep it in your bedroom pig ...ugh. Celebrities, they can't get enough of themselves.
"She sounds a little confused and scatter-brained."
You actually believe all those blonde ditxy parts she played were just acting? LOL
Yet she was practically nude in that teeney bikini for the Laugh In show. Talk about splitting hairs.
religion is, and ultimately, it’s based in the same thought, it’s based in the same outcome, you know. (Whispers) It just has a different façade."
Now use the same description for actors, (whispers) they're all based on the same idiocy, they just have facades they hide behind.
She did a frontal nudity scene in the movie "Wildcats" while laying in a bathtub, so perhaps the ink is still wet on that one.
P.S. Wasn't much to see...
Which conservative causes?
And then she was 40. Now she's 60.
The thought gives me a hardoff.
As gently as I can say this, to believe in everything is to believe in nothing...too bad.
I suspect Goldie is romanticizing her childhood "terror" for the benefit of her publicist.
I remember those old A-bomb survival movies (get under your desk and cover your eyes!). They were probably shown in every public school in America during the 1950's.
Personally as a child I was (and remain) far more traumatized by having see "Old Yeller" on the big screen.
I don't remember seeing any hairs. :-)
If I'm not mistaken, she grew up in Takoma Park, Maryland and everyone there is confused and scatter-brained.
Yet she was practically nude in that teeney bikini for the Laugh In show. Talk about splitting hairs.
My gosh, splitting hairs!
Didn't they have bikini waxes then?
