Since Cruise "exploited" Paris for his PR by doing this stunt, they slapped him with the resolution od "non-welcome." Still it looks petty.
French left are just as much nutcases as Cruise. However, they apparently fail to notice.
That so funny rack this town
Hey Tiger I read W magazine with future MRs Tom Cruize Katie Holmes OH MY GOD can you say brainwashing not only interviewer was told to ask certain question to Katie there was friend who only been her friend for six week this friend happen to be Scientlogist observer and according to interviewr Katie was looking over the shoulder
IT A CULT Scientlogy it was develop by failed sci fi writer L Ron Hubbard
Such a shame. They deserve each other.
Say, the French are on quite a roll. First they vote down the EU, then they diss the unofficial Church of Satan. Not bad.
It's a cult. Nothing but.
Like many other European governments, the French authorities view Scientology -- founded in the United States in 1954 by science-fiction writer L. Ron Hubbard -- as a dangerous cult.
This must be one of those prime examples of what Hitler meant by repeating a lie often enough. Scientology was not a religion invented by Hubbard in 1954. Dianetics was a poorly written science fiction book written by Hubbard in the 50's (54?) that morphed into self-help in the 70's and that he turned in to a 'religion' shortly after, on a bet really that he could start a religion and quickly grow rich separating sheeple from their money. He cruised (pun intended) the talk show circuits in the 70's hoping to lure show-biz people in and the proof is in the pudding. In the mid-90's he and his cult fought like hell to keep the 'secrets' of their 'religion' from being freely posted on the internet. They lost, and now we know how the upper level members believe in aliens, and what their thoughts are on psychiatry and illness in general. Some of this had been kept secret from 'lower level' members until they had been sufficiently hooked in. So many articles as of late refer to it as a religion founded by Hubbard in the 50's, lending it a false credibility, very misleading, possibly intentional by some.
If only they would do the same with islam.
Scientology is dangerous only in that it offends Pychiatrists who peddle chemical imbalances everywhere they go. Cruise is right even if Scientology is wrong as a "religion". People need to deal with and learn to cope with the real underlying problems in their lives. Depression is a normal response to problems in ones life, you lose your job, get a disease, wreck your car, have a conflict with your wife, lose a child and is there any wonder you feel depressed? What most folks need is someone to talk to them and get them out and about. Its been my experience that most people who are cronically depressed need a friend and a purpose not a pill. A brain is a complex self affecting organ and though it is tempting to write off real deficiencies in your life, your parenting, your spouse, your workplace to the catch all "chemical imbalance" one should think twice before shackling themselves with a chemical dependancy that locks them into a holding pattern of mediocrity. We feel bad for a reason and usually it means we are screwing up or need to change our behavior, change our thoughts, or our path in life. I imagine Jesus would've been labeled as having a chemical imbalance because his brain and thoughts didn't fit the "norm" which brings us to the big question is what is the methodology used to determine what is a "normal" chemical balance? I suppose people who don't fit the average height are experiencing a height imbalance? What is more suspicious is the vast numbers of people that are postulated to have chemical imbalances and not even know it. It certainly makes one wonder how humanity got along without Prozac and all the other wonder drugs. How ever did they control their children and their depressions?
Cruise was described as a "sect-symbol" by a Socialist deputy.
But they totally ignore a cult founded in 622 AD that really is dangerous.
From "sex-symbol" to "sect-symbol". How far we've fallen.

If there is a dangerous cult they need to be worried about, it is Islam.
Anybody know whether Matt and Trey are planning "Team America II"? Because Tom sure seems to be hand-feeding them material for it.
First Oprah, then Tom. The French do have their good side.
Kook alert! :-)
This is a parody of little Tommy that I came across from The Spoof! site:
New York - Tom Cruise, who clashed with Today show host Matt Lauer on Friday when Lauer brought up Cruise's earlier criticism of Brooke Shields for taking anti-depressants, issued an apology today for his belligerent behavior from Hollywood.
According to his publicist, Mr. Cruise failed to take his prescribed dose of Ritalin that morning and, as a result, was "a tiny bit on the edge."
"Tom is doing fine now," publicist/sister/fellow Scientologist, Lee Ann Devett explained to reporters. "Between his new bride's constant need for attention and being sprayed in the face with water last week at the London premiere of his new movie, it's more important than ever that he sticks to his strict regiment of exercise, vitamins, and Scientology. You see, Tom has a very fragile psyche," she continued. "When he goes off the vitamins, especially the Ritalin, he can be quite unpredictable."
Unpredictable indeed. Cruise went on the defensive during the Today show interview with Matt Lauer last week, accusing him of "knowing nothing about psychiatry." When Lauer pushed the issue, Cruise leaned toward him aggressively, stating "I've studied the history of psychiatry, Matt, and you haven't." He added, "I had to memorize the entire script of Rain Man once. Have you ever memorized a script about a savant, Matt? Well, have you Matt? "
Lauer's every attempt to refocus the star was met with further aggression. When Lauer asked about his new movie, War of The Worlds,Cruise responded, "You don't know anything about Martians, do you,Matt? I know about Martians. My first wife was a Martin. Have you ever been married to a Martian, Matt?"
"I was waiting for him to punch me," Lauer later said to an unnamed Today show insider. "The guy was out there, man. I mean, I've interviewed some nuts before, but holy crap."
This is the second incident of bizarre behavior involving Cruise and interviewers in recent weeks. While on the Oprah Winfrey show recently,Winfrey's personal security forces went on high alert as Cruise stood on her couch and raved wildly about himself.
"I came this close to taking the dude out," Rocky Lee Brown,Winfrey's chief security aide told reporters. "Nobody messes with Oprah on my watch...Nobody."
Ms. Winfrey herself had no comment regarding the incident.
Cruise's scheduled appearance on Dr. Phil next week has been cancelled.
