$\"\"$ <\/a>In a new interview, actress Lucy Liu says that she\u2019s open to religion and curious to learn more about different faiths. Since she works in Hollywood, it seems fitting that she was asked about Scientology<\/a>.\u00a0 \u201cI think it\u2019s unfortunate when people are against something that can bring so much guidance for people,\u201d she says. \u201cI don\u2019t know much about Scientology \u2013 I know a little bit about it \u2013 but if it helps someone become less addicted to something, or not addicted, or if it helps someone recover from abuse, you can never say it\u2019s bad.\u201d Very diplomatic \u2013 it looks like she won\u2019t get blackballed from a Tom Cruise movie anytime soon.<\/p>\n

As for Lucy herself, her parents are Buddhists. Lucy has taken some Kabbalah classes at the Kabbalah Centre in LA, but she doesn\u2019t identify as a practicioner. \u201cIt reminds me of Taoism,\u201d she says of Kabbalah. \u201cIt\u2019s mind over matter, essentially, and I\u2019m fascinated by that.\u201d<\/p>\n

I think Lucy Liu should run for some sort of political office \u2013 this interview is a master class in how to talk about controversial topics without actually saying anything.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
