Scientology
Any religion that accepts Tom Cruise as a member can't be all bad.
This page is dedicated to all the little people of the world that we're all so grateful to, not just because they're petite but because they are idolized by the rest of the normal-size people, regardless of how vertically challenged they are.
Here we see a rare shot of Tom Cruise, without lifts. The guy on the right is none other than L. Ron Hubbard, philanthropist, Scientology guru, hack sci-fi writer, atheist, nuclear physicist, and keeper of the faith.
Yeah ... I started this page a few weeks ago, and didn't do a thing with it until now. I had originally conceived a mockery of Cruise and Hubbard and Scientology, but realized there are far more talented people out there who have done far more research than I care to do on this particular subject. Sure, Scientology is a wacko religion, Hubbard went from mediocrity to severe nut-case religious guru, and Tom Cruise is totally brainwashed, and truly believes this cult is a good thing. So what? It's a free country, and we can wallow in whatever reality tunnel we want. If Cruise wants to jump on sofas, impregnate his girlfriend with L. Ron Hubbard's sperm and denounce psychiatry, who am I to put him down? Hey, he's from Hollywood, land of fruits and nuts. Nothing that comes out of that place surprises me anymore.
I find it interesting Paramount dumped Cruise because he was too wacko for Hollywood. Too wacko for Hollywood? God's holy trousers, Batman! Can there be such a fringe element that's too wacky for Tinseltown? Sure seems that way -- the West Coast is home to the most provocative spiritual elements in this part of the galaxy. I met a sect who truly believed God was in the toilet, and every morning the members took reverse communion in their first bowel movement. I knew Satanists who believed sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll was the way to immediate enlightenment. I knew atheists who lived full and wonderful lives because they knew this was all there was, and they best make the best of it cause there ain't no afterlife. I knew Christians who went to mass every Sunday to take part in a cannibalistic ritual where everyone eats the flesh of their savior. And there was that group who dressed in Nikes and offed themselves with Bo and Peep for their trip to the alien spaceship following Hale-Bopp. So how can Scientology be so ... out there compared to these other religions? It's not so much that Scientology is so absurd. It's what it does to its members that's so scary and strange that I feel I must say something about it, and of course, the Cruisemeister, himself.
When Isaac Hayes refused to do the South Park making fun of Scientology and Tom Cruise kicked up such a fuss about his depiction as a Scientology closet homo, it got a lot of people interested in this nut-case religion that was too sacred to be ridiculed by Trey Parker. For his childish hissy fit and begging to cancel his contract, Chef came back as a brainwashed pedophile who got mauled by a mountain lion and grizzly bear after falling off a burning bridge. After all the years of working with Matt Stone and Trey Parker on South Park you'd think Isaac would know better than to fuck with Stone and Parker. And THAT'S the key. If Scientology would've kept their mouths shut and let South Park do their little thing, no one would know any better, and the Cruise, Travolta, Scientology episode would've floated off into obscurity and Isaac Hayes would still have his job. Ok. So it wasn't Scientology that made the biggest noise but Isaac Hayes and Tom Cruise, right? I'm not so sure about that. I believe the Scientology upper echelon spoke through Hayes and Cruise, using their celebrity clout to silence the evil blasphemers of their faith. Supposedly, Cruise managed to stop a rerun of that particular episode, but this whole thing opened a can of worms that totally screwed Scientology for a long, long time by stripping the veneer of secrecy from their sinister belief system. So, you didn't get to see the rerun on TV, but you can see it as many times as you like on the Internet and tons of commentary on the subject. For the first time, the whole world gets to see just what kind of paranoid, nut-case, fucked up, pseudo-religion Scientology really is and the irreparable damage it's done to its members and those within its orbit.
The Harm it Does to a Person
The results of applying their crackpot psychotherapy (called "auditing") is to weaken the mind. The mind goes from a rational state to an irrational one as the delusional contents of the subconscious mind are brought to the surface and are assumed to be valid. It also makes a person more susceptible to suggestion since it submerges the critical thinking faculties of the mind into a partial subconscious state. It results in a permanent light hypnotic trance and so from thenceforth that person can be more easily controlled. The person will, to a much greater extent, believe and do whatever they are told. And of course this is used to the full in persuading them to hand over further money and dedicating themselves further to the cult.The results of applying their oversimplified and inapplicable rules in life is to lose the ability to think rationally and logically. A person loses the ability to think for themselves and so they lose the ability to challenge incorrect ideas. This makes them easier to control. It also isolates and alienates the person from society so that they withdraw from normal society and into their "Scientology" society. This further increases their susceptibility to the influence of their group. They end up being afraid of society, believing all society to be controlled by a group of drug companies, psychiatrists and financiers all of whom report to more remote masters. In other words they are in a state of mass paranoia. They therefore avoid reading newspapers and the like since they fear it will disturb their safe Scientology world. It is a downward spiral into madness.
The science fiction content of Scientology is revealed to them after they have reached the state they call "Clear", meaning freed from the aberrations of the mind. However, perhaps "brainwashed" would be a more applicable word to describe the mental state of someone who has survived the near entire delusional contents of their subconscious mind brought to the surface and presented to them as "truth". On the "advanced" levels (called OT levels) above the state of "Clear" they encounter the story of Xenu. Xenu was supposed to have gathered up all the overpopulation in this sector of the galaxy, brought them to Earth and then exterminated them using hydrogen bombs. The souls of these murdered people are then supposed to infest the body of everyone. They are called "body thetans". On the advanced levels of Scientology a person "audits out" these body thetans telepathically by getting them to re-experience their being exterminated by hydrogen bombs. So people on these levels assume all their bad thoughts and faulty memories are due to these body thetans infesting every part of their body and influencing them mentally. Many Scientologists go raving mad at this point if they have not done so already.
Operation Clambake presents What is Scientology
Keep in mind, Scientology is a religion like no other. You can't discuss most of this stuff, even with other Scientologists. If Katie Holmes managed to get to OT levels, where the whole Xenu thing comes into play, she can't even discuss it with Cruise in the privacy of their home. Can you imagine being so isolated from your fellow church-goers and society that you can't even discuss the Bible or the Koran? Cruise is one of Scientology's loudest mouths but he never says anything about it outside of vitamins, exercise, silent birth, (yeah, right) and the evil of psychiatry. His sound bites of Scientology could be the Church of Jack La Lane, for all we know. It makes me wonder how Scientology could have such popularity. Even a Star Wars, Trekkie, sci-fi geek knows it's all fantasy, and just because he goes to conventions dressed up like Darth Vader, hypothesizes the outcome of fights between Jean Luc Picard and James T. Kirk while masturbating over visions of Deanna Troi, and Yeoman Rand in pillow fights dressed like Orion slave girls in his bedroom with his light saber in hand, he still has the wherewithal to realize it's just sci-fi.
Tom Cruise has already demonstrated symptoms of very, very strange behavior, even for a Hollywood movie star. He lost his job at Paramount, and at this point, no studio will touch him. Ever hear the expression, "You'll never work in this town again"? Ok, so he still has mega-star status, but he'll never replace that 10-mil-a-year Paramount contract. The closest offer might be somewhere around 3 mil a year, and although 3 mil sounds like a ton of money to you and me, it's still a 2/3rds cut in pay for him. An illustration of this downsizing would be something like you making $20 an hour. You pay your mortgage, car payments, food bills and have enough left over for a half-decent vacation. Suddenly, you lose your job and have to accept something that pays 7 bucks an hour. Your life is balanced for a paycheck three times more, and drastic cuts have to be made across the board. Lose the house, lose the car, lose the vacations and eat beans. I hope Katie can cook -- that is, if she sticks around, which I seriously doubt. They signed a pre-nup saying if they get divorced within the first 11 years Katie gets 3 mil a year. After 11 years it's half his assets. At this point in time, they haven't gotten married yet, but if TC has an ounce of grey matter he'd seriously think about this, as I'm
sure Katie has. In a recent study that I personally conducted, 66% surveyed don't give a rat's ass about Tom Cruise and Whatsername. 33% say he won't marry her and one third said that baby Suri didn't look like either of them, which supports my theory that Katie Holmes was merely a host for the evil spawn of L. Ron Hubbard, an Asian. Besides, Cruise is gay, and the idea of fornicating with a member of the opposite sex is repellent to him.
One forgotten fact... he's never sired children before. (he claims infertility, ex-wife Mimi Rogers says otherwise)
Take a look at that kid and remember the hoopla about keeping her under wraps for 5 months. As soon as she was born they realized, without a doubt, someone bungled the in vitro fertilization (IVF). Leave it to these Scientologists to totally fuck up a simple, routine, procedure like that! I mean, REALLY! It took them 5 months to figure out how they're going to explain why two 100% Caucasian movie stars can produce an Asian offspring. The least they could do was use Tom's sperm. Just put him in a room with some gay porn, a petri dish and a male attendant, for God's sake. And these idiots expect to rule the world?
Besides, Cruise isn't making 10 mil anymore.
Tom Cruise has no idea people think he's gay or his "religion" is a scam to the degree it is. See, if you're a Scientologist they won't allow you to come anywhere near what is being uncovered every day about Scientology-bashing stuff, because it interferes with the control they have on you. If Cruise even uses a computer he sure as shit has Net Nanny to filter out the bad stuff, such as L. Ron Hubbard's addiction to psychiatric drugs. All outside information is carefully filtered for him by his handlers and his Scientologist overseers. Tom surrounds himself with yes men and Scientologists who constantly tell him he's great and can do no wrong, and there's never a mention of anything negative toward his religion, his fake kid or his fake straight life. It's all, "way to go Tom!" This guy is so deep into denial he'll never get out, and the effect of brainwashing, especially the higher OT levels that he's involved with, prevent him from ANY kind of logical thought, and will push him spectacularly off the deep end of his short pier of sci-fi pseudo-reality right in front of the whole world. The pressures of his fake wife, his fake kid, his fake religion and his fake sexuality will be cause for a very serious psychotic break, and we'll all have front row seats to see the Hollywood train wreck of the century.
Ever see the movie, "Elvis Meets Nixon"? A "mockumentary" about Elvis's real-life trip to the White House to become a federal marshal under the DEA, but meets the President instead. This guy was a true innocent, so totally sheltered by his Memphis Mafia he didn't know the price of anything, and didn't realize you can't carry guns on an airplane. It was the first time he was out and about, alone, in his entire adult life, and the culture shock of Height-Asbury and paying for a Coke is what made the movie such a hoot. Cruise is even more sheltered, and when his delusion crumbles he won't handle it as well as Elvis. It's interesting to note, at this point, that Elvis was almost recruited by the Church of Scientology but wanted nothing to do with them. "Fuck those people! There's no way I'll ever get involved with that son-of-a-bitchin' group. All they want is my money." Scientology Kills - Celebrity Scientologists - Priscilla Presley
Just like The Cruiser, Isaac Hayes also lost his very cool and lucrative job because of his "religion." I wonder how many people quit their jobs because it doesn't have an exact fit with their religious beliefs. Does it mean that all retail workers are atheists because they have to work the occasional Sunday? Hell no! It simply means retail workers adapt to the business at hand and accept the fact that the world doesn't revolve around their way of thinking.
To seriously misquote Bob Seger: "Come back baby. R&B never forgets."
Keep in mind, these are just two well known personalities whose lives are being seriously fucked by this bullshit "religion." Think of all the people Scientology has wasted who weren't celebrities in the public eye who sold their homes, drained their bank accounts, maxed out their credit cards, and lost their minds and lives for some hack sci-fi writer with delusions of godhood.
But, we NEED Scientology, if not for any other reason, than to entertain us with characters like Cruise, Hayes, and Travolta, who prove there's some stuff you just can't make up. Scientology is like western schizophrenia. We need that wild-card element, even if it means destroying a whole shitload of lives. Cruise, L. Ron Hubbard, and Hayes are this generation's Joan of Arc, Jesus, and John Nash. John Nash quit HIS job. L.Ron had dedicated disciples. Cruise?........Just keep your eyes open.
It's western society's obligation to provide the world with fresh schizophrenics, and we've done a pretty good job for 3,000 years and we haven't even gotten up a good head of steam, yet. I look at Scientology as part of the natural order of things ... the rogue cell, the nigger in the woodpile, the guest that wouldn't leave, and your ne'er-do-well, sponging brother-in-law. Sure, Scientology makes robots of their members but without robots we wouldn't know what robotism was all about. We need something to point to and say, HEY! This is some pretty fucked up shit, here!
Sir Isaac Newton's third law of motion clearly states.. "For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction." It stands to reason, the more Scientology grows, with its built in system of turning its members into mindless, non-thinking, zombie robots, the more the rest of us will become logical, free-thinking, and enlightened.
To the enlightened, Scientology will become a natural curiosity for our endless amusement. The ultimate reality show. An experiment that escaped the lab.
Gather ye pitchforks and torches, oh my brothers and sisters. The monster is loose and there's a sequel in the making, and we need all the extras we can get. Union scale, of course.
wanna see a couple movies?

I've got something in common with Tom Cruise, I haven't had sex with Katie Holmes either.
