If anyone tells me it is normal behavior for an actor or actress to ask a film crew to sign waivers stating that they promise not to ask them about their religion, then let me show you the door. Is it me? Or aren’t people supposed to be proud of their religion? Wouldn’t people be excited to tell you about it? Granted Scientology is certainly NOT a religion by any far stretch of the imagination, but obviously its members believe it is a religion.

Even though, oddly enough, Scientology con man and founder L. Ron Hubbard himself once stated that Scientology was in fact NOT a religion. Confused? So are its cult members.
Scientology thrives on keeping its members in the dark about its teachings. If you ask any Scientologist what Scientology is about, most will tell you it’s best for you to go buy their book Dianetics. Which is only one of many books written by sci fi hack Hubbard and also one of the biggest pieces of dribble in his collection of gobbledy goop “teachings” that will leave you scratching your head.

So getting back to Katie and her upcoming film, Who’s Afraid of the Dark? which she is filming in Australia, and  we reported on a short while back.
Apparently Katie is more afraid of being asked about Scientology, than she is the dark. So afraid in fact, that she (or most likely Tom) has asked the film crew for her new movie to sign agreements stating that they will not ask her anything about Scientology. And sure, one can argue, that Katie is at work, and does not want to talk about her private life, but to have people sign agreements? I think that is a little overkill. Maybe this has something to do with the recent story of four ex-Scientology top execs that have finally come forward and spoken out in a scathing three part series from the St. Petersburg Times.

But then again, maybe it’s the fact that Scientology has become a complete and utter embarrassment now.

I find this request of the film crew beyond telling, especially for the mere fact that Tom Cruise and many other celebutards have dumped SO much money into the cult, but yet he doesn’t want Katie or himself to be asked about it. Can it be because the last time he spoke about Scientology, it created such a circus of backlash that he still hasn’t recovered from it and probably never will?  Everyone remembers what happened when Tom spoke about Scientology in the past, it only made a giant mess for Scientology, and made him look like the arrogant, brainwashed buffoon that he is. Perhaps I am being glib.

Who Can Forget This Disastrous Interview?

You would think if Scientology was so fantastic, and had ANY proven data about their “tech” working and that “Clears” actually existed, then members would want to shout it from the mountain tops and share it with the world. Oh Scientology wants to share it with the world alright, but not for free. They are not willing to let you in on what Scientology is all about completely until you plunk down hundreds of thousands of dollars so you can start your “journey” up their many levels to the ”Bridge To Total Freedom“, which we at Glosslip call the “Bridge To Nowhere and Financial Ruin,” and also which is obviously nothing more than a money making pyramid scheme.

Not for nothing, but I would be REALLY pissed if I spent all that money, only to find out that the information they are selling for loads of money, I could learn for free on the internet. To make matters worse, to then find out (after a butt load of MORE money) that my “meat body” is covered with space alien body thetans that I have to audit away on an e-meter. See! I just saved ya a ton of cash there!

What I find more ironic or I should say moronic, is that L. Ron Hubbard stated “When in doubt, communication is the universal solvent“. This couldn’t be farther from the truth when it comes to the cult Scientology.  If this was the case, they why are members so tight lipped and forbidden to talk about the levels of Scientology? And why do members speak in the beyond dorky Scientlogese lingo in which they use acronyms that only other Scientologists can understand? Speaking Scientolgese is not about being part of an elite “church” of Homo Novis. (an elite race of their own, supierior over all others) It’s about being secretive and childish. But that’s what Scientology’s behavior is all about.

The Herald Sun reported Katie and Tom’s visit, the film crew signed statements and a little bit of shopping:

KATIE Holmes is about to start filming her new movie, Don’t Be Afraid Of The Dark, but some questions from the crew will not be allowed.

The Batman Begins actor will begin filming on the closed Docklands set this week, as she, husband Tom Cruise and daughter Suri continue to explore Melbourne’s sights and stores.

One film source from the set said that each crew member had signed agreements saying they would not ask the superstar about her religion, Scientology.

The couple, who have braved chilly weather to explore the city and have happily chatted to locals, are notoriously private when it comes to questions or discussions about their religion.

Holmes has never publicly addressed converting to Scientology since she started dating Cruise in early 2005.

The famous family was entertained late on Friday night for Cruise’s 47th birthday celebration by singer Kate Ceberano, a fellow Scientologist who has known the couple for years.

Good friend and Crown casino owner James Packer also attended.

Cruise and Holmes are staying at the luxury Crown penthouse after searching Melbourne for appropriate accommodation, including some Toorak mansions.

Crown staff remain tight-lipped about the exact details of the star couple’s stay, most likely at the direction of Packer, who has taken a personal interest in their time in Australia.

But Holmes and Cruise have taken advantage of some of Crown’s shops, with Burberry reportedly closing its doors during the week to let Holmes go on a shopping spree.

Reports suggested the actor spent $50,000 on an alligator skin handbag, as part of an $85,000 bill, but staff would not discuss any details.

However, a spokesperson did confirm the store does stock an alligator skin handbag worth $50,000 - a favourite with wealthy VIP customers - which is locked away in a private safe.

Cruise was a vocal supporter in the Crown box at the Collingwood-Essendon game at the MCG on Friday night before his party, while his wife appeared less interested in what would be a foreign game.

The Valkyrie actor is no stranger to football - while married to Nicole Kidman in the 1990s, he went to see the Sydney Swans.

It is believed Cruise will not be in Melbourne for the entirety of his wife’s movie shoot.

SCIENTOLOGY:

Scientology is a controversial religion based on the theories of science fiction author L. Ron Hubbard.

The church claims Earth is a prison planet, home to the souls of millions of inter-galactic beings murdered by an evil alien overlord named Xenu.

French and German governments have begun actions to ban Scientology.

Kudos to the Herald for including that very important bit of information at the end of their article. It is apparent that thankfully more and more of the media is getting the word out on Scientology, whether Scientology likes it or not. And that word is not at all positive to say the least. The press isn’t being as fearful of litigation from Scientology any more, and it’s a big step in the right direction. This of course excludes the shameless PR press releases posted by Scientology themselves, which have been popping up all over as damage control for the SP Times articles. They paid or I should say their members paid big bucks for many new TV ads. They have gone so far as to release press releases on the Internet and in papers on news that happened years ago. I have read several Scientology press releases myself about the Scientology Volunteer Ministry helping (I use this term lightly), in other countries. The VM is a front group known by critics as the Vulture Ministries.

Not only where these Scientology press releases trumped up and extremely deceptive, they were reporting OLD news! Did they think no one would notice that the stories were old? Sadly, many readers don’t know these stories are old news, and that is exactly what Scientology was counting on. So Scientology will talk…but only about phony and old PR.They will never talk about what really is going on within their cult. It’s Scientology BS recycling BS.
Once again…Scientology doing it wrong.

I also find Katie’s hush hush request very puzzling, due to the fact that Scientology has been on a spending spree and trying to refurbish its MANY unkept and vacant properties, so they can give the false appearance of continual success and expansion to its members, to keep the money rolling in, even though many of their “orgs” are as empty as ghost towns. There has been talk of Scientology actually having to ship in members from other orgs to make their PR pictures for their new orgs look like they are flourishing. But savvy people on the Why We Protest forum noticed that many of the members in these PR pictures were NOT from that particular org, and were actually from other orgs in other states. 

Scientology did the same recently for their Malmo Sweeden org. Since they only had eleven actual members in that org, they had to bus people in from nearly 500 miles away to make it look like the opening was a huge success. The majority of the people in the Sweden PR picture were Hungarians according to WWP. The same deal when they had the PR pictures taken for their Nashville Tennessee org . 

The PR picture for their Nashville org used some Sea Org members to pose in the picture to make it look like more staff and a full and happy org.

Nashville PR Picture Filled With Sea Org Members

Recently, Scientology erected a giant brand new LED sign and golden cross on their LA Pac Base org also nicknamed “Big  Blue”  (because it is big and a bilious blue). This org was the book title of ex-Scientology member, John Duignan’s book, The Complex. As this org was also called the Complex.
One has to wonder why it took Scientology so many years to fix this eye sore and why the rest of the building is still in such disrepair. It is probably way out of code, it has broken windows, an outdated and shoddy interior and probably needs a serious amount of work. But as long as it looks pretty (it’s WAY ugly) from the front of the building and from afar in the night sky with their sparkling LED sign, Scientology continues on with their smoke and mirrors dog and pony show. I still don’t understand why LA would allow such a huge sign to be erected in a semi residential area? But then again, they allowed Scientology to rename a street L. Ron Hubbard Way years ago. Why would ANY town allow a street to be renamed after a con man of a cult? One has to wonder what exactly happened in that ridiculous decision. BIG shame on you LA!!

Furthermore, all these renovations of course are being paid for by pressing cult members around the world for more and more ”donations”  through phony campaigns of urgency. Whether it be more money for their empty shell of a building, the Super Power Building (can’t say this with a straight face) down in Clearwater Florida or asking for donations for their phony library drives, where they tell members that they are buying Scientology books to place in all the libraries state wide. FYI…The libraries have been either returning the books, throwing these books out or selling them for a 1.00 a piece at their book sales. They simply don’t want them.

Also all these new building renovations sadly means that they are working their way below minimum wage slave labor Sea Org members into exhaustion. All this deception and the fact that people are leaving Scientology left and right, doesn’t sound like a “church ” I would want to to be proud of or to talk about. Oh!!!! I get it now.

And I would be remiss if I didn’t mention…A big BOO to Katie for picking out a $50,000.00 alligator skin bag on her $85,000.00 shopping spree, tsk tsk Katie! But at least that is $85,000.00 the cult won’t get their mitts on!

Let’s hope that Katie receives some much needed alone time away from Tom and she wakes the hell up. Katie and Suri should be free to speak and think freely without fear, as well as all members in the grasp of this insidious cult. Maybe Katie not wanting to talk about Scientology is a good sign. Of course, only time will tell. But Scientology’s seems to be running out of time. By the time Katie is ready to talk about Scientology, maybe it will be in a tell all book about her life with Tom and Scientology. She would be an even bigger gazillionaire, and put that final nail in Scientology’s coffin. And Scientology couldn’t do a damn thing about it.

Are you listening Katie? Be the hero. Get that pen out girlfriend and start writing! There’s a big empty spot waiting for you on the best seller’s list!
