The Nuts And Bolts of Tom Cruise - Part 1
Tomorrow we have Andrew Morton's Tom Cruise: An Unauthorized Biography coming out.
Today, we have the Canadian Press interview with Morton where much of the bruhaha of the past week get's dispelled
" Author of Tom Cruise biography dispels rumours about Scientology actor"
states:
Morton says Cruise is now the No. 2 Scientologist in the world.
"I just thought the Scientology was just like an add-on to his life and he just paid lip service to it," Morton says.
"What I didn't realize was how absolutely to the bone this is in him, and in a way it helps to explain why he's so suspicious of the outside world. Scientology is controlling, it's dominating, it's their way or the highway. They believe that only they have the answers to all the problems in the world, and in a way it kind of meshes quite nicely with his own fairly authoritarian character. It's a good fit."
Cruise is, in fact, a control freak who likes to manage every aspect of not only his personal and professional lives, but also of the lives of his wives - current and former - and children, Morton says.
"Scientology is quite technical, and it seems sort of pseudo-scientific at first and the early courses are quite accessible. It teaches you that you can actually leave your past behind and reinvent yourself, you can remake the script if you like, you can take control of your life - and Tom Cruise is very much about control."

Cruise Control in MO? Scientology's CCHR Exhibit At The State Capitol Rotunda Is Aimed At Hurting The Mentally Ill
Scientology discriminates against the mentally ill. Their anti-psychiatry cover group, Citizens Commission On Human rights - CCHR - has IRS tax-exemption status so all those donations go to attack the industry which actually defends and helps the mentally ill.
Here is a excellent article explaining the game behind $cientology's propaganda show,

Scientology exhibit won’t help the mentally ill
By J. SCOTT CHRISTIANSON
Columbia Tribune ( Columbia, Missouri )
Published Tuesday, January 9, 2007 ( Fair Use Exerpt)
On Thursday and Friday, the state Capitol Rotunda will host an exhibit titled "The Industry of Death." If you’re thinking it’s about time an exposé about corporate chicken farming came to the Capitol, you’ll be sadly disappointed. However, if you believe that psychiatrists and the entire psychiatric profession are part of a secret plan for world domination developed in part by Adolf Hitler, then it’s time to load the kids in the car for a day of fun at the Capitol.
The "Industry of Death" exhibit is sponsored by the Church of Scientology and makes a host of outrageous claims about the field of psychiatry. Twenty-five percent of psychiatrists sexually abuse their patients. Psychiatrists deliberately kill about 10,000 people a year - sounds about right. And for the big surprise, psychiatrists were responsible for the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks - guilty by association, at least, since psychiatrists are responsible for the existence of terrorists and suicide bombers. Last year, Tom Cruise famously launched his own attack on psychiatry after learning some of these "facts" about the profession. This exhibit explains a lot about why he seemed so far out when discussing psychiatry with Matt Lauer on "Today."
The Church of Scientology has always seemed to have it in for psychiatrists. Perhaps it is because psychiatry and psychology are based on science, while Scientology is based on the ramblings of a science-fiction writer from the 1950s. To paraphrase the official view of the Vatican - an institution with a long history of dealing with matters of science and religion - it is science that keeps religion from becoming superstition. This exhibit from the Church of Scientology is just one way Scientologists have clearly shown that they stand on the side of superstition.
In most countries, the Church of Scientology is not even recognized as a religion; rather, it is treated and taxed like the lucrative business that it is. Only after a 25-year battle with the IRS, in which the Church of Scientology allegedly used private investigators to put pressure on the IRS officials in charge of granting not-for-profit status, was it recognized in the United States as tax-exempt.
Regardless of its tax-exempt status, the Church of Scientology is more like a pyramid scheme than a church. A follower of Scientology pays to take classes to receive the wisdom of Scientology, which is not publicly available. The more classes you take, the more enlightened you get. When you have completed the required curriculum, you can start teaching Scientology courses and charge tuition to your students. There are several levels for teachers and students, so there are more courses to take and more levels to achieve. Think Mary Kay Cosmetics with aliens and celebrities.
