Scientology and the Cruises

Yesterday I read about about the Church of Scientology. The same Tom Cruise's church that litigates anyone who cares to make comments about it on account of Scientology being copyrighted. What prats. If they are truly interested in obtaining "knowledge" as their name suggest, then surely it merits an open public discussion and enquiry into their beliefs.

The secrecy with which this "Church" operates is indeed bizarre. I must admit that my sources of information regarding them came from Wikipedia. Apparently the "Church" sued Google for making links to websites critical of them available to the public. The Wikipedia website goes at length to mention how "new recruits" had to build a flower garden overnight for Mr. Tom (not of Finland) so that he could impress Nicole Kidman. I remembered a feature of Nicole some time after her divorce with Tom (was it the Vanity Fair?). It featured some lovely shots with that actor who used to be good looking a few centuries ago but is now bald with 6 inch long chest hair. He's always playing cocky astronauts etc. They seemed all enraptured in a field of flowers, a natural one, not a makeshift garden. I couldn't help but wonder whether or not she was communicating - sending a "secret" message for those who know. After all, when she remarried she did it in a Catholic Church. Perhaps Kidman & Cruise got divorced because she was no longer willing to believe in "Xenu (also Xemu) [..] an alien ruler of the "Galactic Confederacy" who, 75 million years ago, brought billions of aliens to Earth in DC-8-like spacecraft, stacked them around volcanoes and blew them up with hydrogen bombs. Their souls then clustered together and stuck to the bodies of the living, and continue to wreak chaos and havoc today" (Source: Wikipedia - fuck only knows what Tom Cruise not being gay has to do with that as it is so covertly inserted into the text). But now that I have a little bit more (unconfirmed) information about Scientology, it confirmed something I always thought about our man "Cruise" - he is not the brightest celebrity around. In fact, his talent is questionable even when he is at his best, such as in Magnolias. But he remains good to look at. But nevertheless, I respect his right to believe any bullshit he wishes to believe. It is what makes us free.

If the ignorance of the belief system of "science" maintains that we evolved from a massive cosmic accident, it only figures that some prat will come up with a belief that humans evolved from clams. It is unreasonable to call reason an accident. I mean really. How fucking mentally retarded and stupid must you be to believe that? But AFA Scientology is concerned, bottom line is that scepticism of anyone who offers you knowledge for which you must pay for the purpose of profit and who maintains ownership therof, is well founded.
