"body thetans" are INSIDE our bodies, NOT floating all over the place, in Scientology. Think more like the Alien movie. And think imaginary, so that when the alien souls are released, they don't bust your chest open like in the Alien movie. Scientology's more like Ghostbusters, and instead of vacuuming ghosts who are floating around in the air zipping around in rooms, in Scientology the minister/therapist coaxes the "body thetans" (dead alien ghosts or souls) out of your body and set them on their way to go to some hospital and pick up a real baby's body the way us thinking rational people did! Get it right! Scientology is not at all like Tarvu.
