Good Lord, he looks like a crack-pot character out of a science fiction movie.
Maybe Tom thinks he's NEO or the 'Fifth Element'. He's certainly acting like it. Where's the easy-going, gracious character he plays for the entertainment tonight cameras??

Elton John would have loved the backgroud to that whole thing.

bet Xenu is shaking in his boots.... I think all the thetons in me (apparently I am mostly thetons... a negative 53 was my audit score) just had a group fear reaction.
You go Tom! You are a theton smashing Xenu fighting warrior!
Unfortunately, now that I know that you are what you are I won't be able to watch you in your films without that dominating my perspective.

Is that the star gate machine behind him? Is Tom saying "The "Beam Me Aboard, Scotty" religious wing of the US in now in session." I didn't notice a gavel.

SCIENTOLOGY:

Providing Gay actors with wives since 1964!

Yes, Cruise is dumb. He never had ADD; he was just a slow learner in school...in other words, stupid. Stupid is as stupid does. I was visiting L.A. a few weeks ago, and my son pointed out the "clams" as they walk thru Hollywood in their uniforms. This one young girl was in line at a store, with an older man, also in uniform. She was lifeless, like a zombie. I smiled and said hello; she looked at the old dude for approval before smiling back. Those people are dead. Their spirit has been beaten out of them. A while ago I read that Donald Rumsfeld was a follower of Scientology. I have often wondered to what degree they have infiltrated our government. Their mission is to control the world.

Enough about scientology already. It's a nutcase cult (no worse than every other religion though). Please stop advertising it for free. There are impressionable young people that don't know enough to run away from it yet.

Why Huff is showing those crazies so often. Cruise did this, Cruise did that, Britney was here or there, where are the journalists and some real interesting news?
Tom Cruise is a stupid low IQ nut case AND under the influence of an aggressive brainwashing cult, we know that already.
