"a pan, a comb, perhaps a cat"

Thats part of the vows in the Traditional version of a Scientology wedding. The groom is reminded that “girls” need “clothes and food and tender happiness and frills, a pan, a comb, perhaps a cat” and is asked to provide them all. The bride is told that “Hear well, sweet xxxx . … For promise binds. Young men are free and may forget. Remind him then that you may have necessities and follies, too.”

Words of wisdom from L Ron Hubbard. I wonder what he was smoking when he wrote them?

But that might not be the version of the ceremony that Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes use for their wedding. It could be the Double Ring Ceremony - in it, the minister holds up the couple’s rings and asks that they imagine a triangle inside them, and the couple is asked to imagine affinity, reality and communication as the points of those triangles.

And supposedly intelligent people swallow these ravings from a bad sci-fi novelist?
