What would Shirley say?

In her latest book that came out about a month ago, Shirley MacLaine implies that the six million Jews who were killed in the holocaust were paying for sins in their past lives. Really Shirl? How wretched of you!

I wonder what she thought of the tragedy that happened in Midwood, Brooklyn where 7 beautiful Jewish children lost their lives when their house became an inferno this past weekend? A true tragedy if ever there was. Were those innocent children also paying for past sins?

Yes it was a tragedy. But IF the religious laws weren't in play would those children have died? Religion kills. Jew, Christian or Muslim.

SNAFU, I don't see your reasoning. There are people of all religions, as you say, who follow traditions or laws. Because of their strong beliefs, they choose to observe and keep their religions alive that way. Are you saying that they shouldn't? The cause of this fire was not religious laws, but failure to have smoke alarms.

I am not a religious person but I don't blame this poor family for being religious.

I should have realized this was going to be the reaction here. Wrong religion, wrong ethnicity and wrong neighborhood.

How did religion kill this family. Oversight in no smoke alarms? Yes. Saying religion kills regarding this, wrong.

"I should have realized this was going to be the reaction here."

What other type of reaction did you think you'd get from your opening post? really.

Shirley MacLaine is STILL releasing books?

Is the world, or anybody with a lick of common sense, waiting to hear Shirley MacLaine's opinion about those dead children? Are people unable to extrapolate what she MIGHT say if what she is said to have said about the Holocaust victims is actually something she did say?

What an odd query.

ETA: I just looked up her bibliography and her last book was released two years ago, not about a month ago. So, WTF is this thread really about, pippin?

I find it very hard to take Shirley MacLaine seriously.

We know Shirley MacLaine believes in reincarnation, so it shouldn't surprise us if she also believes in karma--along with a billion or two other people.

To say that the Jews (gays, Gypsies, Slavs, etc.) who ended up in Nazi gas chambers were paying off a karmic debt is NOT to relieve the Nazis of their responsibility nor to imply that camp victims are not worthy of our compassion.

What did Shirley do in a past life that made her give such a ghastly performance on Downton Abbey in this life?

If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

The book is 2 years old. She also said that Stephen Hawking gave himself ALS.

The woman is (and has always been) batSH*T crazy.

Next question.

I have to agree with that, Goth!

Sorry, I misread release date. It was a year and a half ago, not a month ago. There was no agenda.

Maclaine's view of karma and reincarnation is also a religious one, here, stated, as religious views so often are, in a most provocative, vile, thoughtless and demoralizing way.

People can have their beliefs, choose to observe them and keep them alive.
That's their choice.

Some of us choose to call them on their bull****. That's ours.

I'm saying this tragedy was not because of religion. It was because of smoke alarms. Anything in life can kill, not just religion. "If Joe Blow didn't go to the store, he wouldn't have been hit by that bus. If Sue Smith didn't smoke, her apt wouldn't have burned down."
