Dang it... the title was supposed to be has anyone EVER assisted in a Scientology "silent birth"...

Because of the whole Tomkat birth, the "silent birth" advocated by Scientologists has gotten some press recently. I was curious as to what a silent birth was really like- are the nurses not allowed to talk? Can the mother not make any noise at all? Why?

And off the topic of birth, is Scientology really based on the theory that millions of years ago an alien called Xenu ruled the world and there was a nuclear war and the souls of dead aliens attach to us and make us sick or depressed? I heard that on the radio, but its hard to believe that is really the foundation for a religion... any Scientologists out there who can elaborate?

Whoops... I just realized that someone posted a pretty much identical thread on this subject a couple days ago... sorry!
