Sure they have dirt on him. They propably have proof that he is gay.

The death of L Ron Hubbard

The Church of Scientology is loudly voicing their strong resistance to what they call "psych drugs". It is therefore ironic that the founder of Dianetics and Scientology, L Ron Hubbard, was taking a "psych drug" when he died. This is not unusual in itself, since bitter old men often go psychotic when dying. Witnesses testified that Hubbard died acting like a raving lunatic.

This is from the 1983 edition of the Physician's Desk Reference, pg 1571. It was a couple years out of date when Hubbard died. Vistaril is the psych drug found in Hubbard's body.

I'm trying to think of the last time I paid to see Tom Cruise in a movie . . . yep, it was Top Gun.

[veronica]

PR hack Pat Kingsley deserves a Lifetime Achievement Oscar for managing to hide Tom Cruise's megalomania so well for so many years.

[Petronski]

LOL

Yeah, I wonder which one called Richard Johnson at the Post? Trey or Matt?

[Petronski]

I hope Haye's replacement is good. The difference between teh old and new Flinstone voices is disatrous.

Really? I see it the opposite way. I think they should keep the same visuals for Chef, but make no effort whatsoever to match the voice. Use a voice totally against type, like Dom Deluise.

Can you imagine the voice of Dom Deluise singing about his "salty balls?"

Sorry children, If I don't quit South Park, Scientology Grand Master Tom Cruise will have me rubbed out. I can't tell you anymore children, he has spies everywhere! Now run on home!

[LibLieSlayer]

He has the gay part down!

LLS

[pepperdog]

And the best part of that movie was the intro. They could just as successfully shown the launches for 90 minutes with nifty music. I still love the into.

Mocking Scientology is too easy! People like Tiny Tom, the high school drop out, rag heads kneeling down and smelling the butt in front of them, Louis Fakerkom and his mother ship are all people who fortify my belief in comedy.

[Jimbaugh]

Boycotts work both ways Mr. Cruise.

I think that MI3 will be just as bad as War of the Worlds.

When people have to come out and say that you are not weird. You are weird.

[Petronski]

Goose is dead!

[RabidBartender]

Mission Impossible II was one of the worst movies I have ever seen. I think they made it just as an excuse to do stunts.

Phillip Seymour Hoffman as the bad guy? Is he gay in this movie too? Ugh. I'll pass.

What they should do is have a movie where Ethan Hunt (Cruise's character in MI) meets us with Jason Bourne in a deserted warehouse to join forces, but then Jack Bauer blows it up.

[Panerai]

"but then Jack Bauer blows it up" - Nah, he'll just shoot them in the knee

[Thomas Aquinas]

I think he protests too much. Can it be he has something he wishes to hide? I can only imagine that is he wishes this strongly to keep this show from airing again, he must be upset that it is hitting too close to home, er, to the truth... me thinks

[BlueMondaySkipper]

I think that MI3 will be just as bad as War of the Worlds.

I don't see how that would be possible...

" she is incredibly defensive when one speaks negatively about the cult.
"


It takes a childish D&D mentality to play the scientology game. Children are always defensive about their "club".

[antiRepublicrat]

Actually I fully expect Matt & Trey to Kill Chef off.

I'm thinking an extension of the first Scientology episode, where they try to kill Stan for exposing them, and off Chef instead.

"I'm thinking an extension of the first Scientology episode, where they try to kill Stan for exposing them, and off Chef instead."

Killer idea. I hope Matt or Trey are reading this thread.

[Space Wrangler]

You may also remember that during the same time that you are referring to, Cruise and Kidman both made an attempt to leave the cult. It would up with their divorce, and as you say, Cruise becoming a super-$cientologist.
