If you haven’t seen it, here it is (until the ‘church’ bully-boys demand it be taken down again) - the Tom Cruise video.
I’ve never thought much of him as an actor, now I reckon he’s a fruit-loop as well.
I’d add more, but really the whole ‘S’ thing is a non-issue to me - I mean, if someone is stupid enough to believe in a ‘religion’ founded by a science fiction writer turned con-man, then hell, go for it. The rest of us will just ignore you. Period.

I started writing my views about the whole ‘S’ issue here, then deleted it because, honestly, I was scared. Scared by all the stories of ‘black vans’ and ’smear campaigns’ - then I thought to myself ‘come on - the society we live in is a a free society. We are entitled to express our views about anything, churches, cults and the mad behaviour of any group that is operating outside (or damn close to outside) the laws of that society. So here it is, back again - my views about ‘S’ and I don’t care if I’m considered an ‘SP’ or whatever other ridiculous term you want to label me with. I am a rational, thinking human being who doesn’t have ‘thetans’ inside me that need to be ‘cleared’ or whatever other nonsense that you believe…’

Most atheists believe that eventually the world’s religions and churches will fall by the wayside. They have to, if human civilisation is ever to progress. At the heart of this process is the defining of the word ‘church’ - and Scientology has given the world’s governments and lawmakers a priceless gift - if a cult that tells it’s members (eventually, after charging enormous ‘fees’) the ridiculous story made up by a psychologically damaged sci-fi writer can call itself a ‘church’ and get away with it, then what is next? The hope is that eventually someone, somewhere will have the balls to start the whole process of exposing this dangerous, fraudulent group and others that claim the title ‘church’ for what they really are.

I’ll leave Pat Condell to have the last word.
