tom cruise, the psychiatry expert...

seems that tom cruise, scientology megalomaniac, is proving once again that hollywood is a town full of crazies. on the today show with matt lauer, cruise stated to matt, "you don't know the history of psychiatry, i do."
more and more, cruise is getting in the news, promoting his upcoming movie, "war of the worlds", and for promoting his cult-religion. i've been following scientology for awhile, ever since they started recruiting at rutgers. but the big stupid thing that's getting the most press is the inferences between the movie and scientology. i don't mean to look down on any religion cult, but the aliens? aliens, people... and thetans? what the hell?
for the hollywood crazies, giving $100,000 to attain OT3, a level in scientology, is merely a drop in the bucket, chump change. but some people not of the upwardly cult mobile, have a hard time wasting their life savings to "clear" their "thetans." according to msnbc:

Once “clear,” Scientologists work on more otherworldly concerns through a series of levels starting with "Operating Thetan 1." It is only at this point that Scientologists can begin receiving knowledge of confidential teachings of Scientology. Cruise, said to be an OT6, and Travolta — reportedly OT7 — are well into this realm.

Among the secrets revealed to adherents who reach the OT3 level is the incident that led to the current evils of the Earth. In leaked documents now posted on the Internet, this incident started with a galactic shake-up 75 million years ago, when an alien ruler sent billions of subjects to this planet to solve an overpopulation problem. These "thetan" souls dispersed and invaded humans. Scientology is the means through which one's Body Thetans (BTs) are purged.

i can go on forever about this, but check the links to see the hilarity for yourself...
