ugh
take 10 minutes and watch this video.
i hate scientology. i freely admit that i am biased. i cant stand the smugness of it, the arrogance of it, the we’re #1 mentality. and watching this video of tom cruise does nothing to change my mind about it. it always, always makes me think of the fountainhead and that cold-hearted snake ayn rand.
two things that get me about scientology. 1) why are they so secretive? if scientology is so great and they want to bring it to everyone then why is everything done behind closed doors? 2) there’s no room for doubt or questions in scientology, you either swallow it whole or spit it out. you know how in education they always say that learning by rote isnt really knowledge? well they should say that.
contrary to the gawker commenters, this video actually makes me lean towards the tom cruise is NOT crazy end of the spectrum. he’s a believer, that doesnt make him crazy.
