Weird TOM CRUISE Recruiting Video???

There's a funny video of Jerry O'Connell spoofing this. He really nails the maniacal Tom Cruise laugh.

Response from Head RAZZberry: Here's a LINK to watch O'Connell's often hilarious spoof of Lil Tommy on YOU TUBE... 

I'm tired of empty promises from drug rehab programs, and it's especially hard to accept such claims from a religion that actively seeks out "PSTs" to be "fairgamed" in order to "KSW."  What are these statistics that prove that Narconon is "the only successful drug rehabiliation program in the world?"  Has anyone independently verified these statistics, apart from Scientology itself? 

And since when have statistics become "proven fact"?

Tell you what.  Let some outsiders evaluate the experiences of 100 drug users going through Narconon for the first time.  Or will the outsiders be dubbed "SPs" if the outcome isn't good?  Or, even worse, will the drug counselors be dubbed "PTSs" if there are any failures? 

The only successful drug rehab program is the one that gets you off of drugs and keeps you off of drugs.  Many people have done this in many different ways, and I don't know any of those ways that work for everybody.  I doubt Narconon is any different in this regard.

It has been said that the most difficult aspect of coming to the defense of personal liberties is that you are going to find yourself spending a lot of time defending scoundrels. It is precisely in this spirit that I hesitantly come to the defense of Cruise.

I think Scientology is a set of nutball ideas, supported by financial pyramid scheme all woven into a religion. (My philosophies toward most of the planet's other religions aren't significantly different.) However, if Cruise or anyone else wants to adhere to it, and even attempt to recruit others to it, thank whatever Gods may be that we live in a country where it is still permissable for them to do so.

I don't worry all that much about Scientology because most of the morons who fall for its nonsense would be soaking up somebody else's were it not around. Further, Scientology's weird financial structure precludes all but the extremely wealthy from getting all that involved. I worry a lot more about some of the stuff that is being fed to the minds of the populace free of charge lately.But the bottom line is, everyone has the right to make their own choices in these matters. As folks in my circle say, "So many idiots, so few comets."

As an expensive object lesson that I hope most of the people in this country have come to learn as the reult the errors of its present leaders over the past 8 years, you can't fight ideas with laws or bullets. You fight them with better ideas. So when the Scientologists set up their tents, or the Adventists come knocking at my door with their copy of the Watchtower, questions are a much more forceful arsenal than anger.

It is curious that from the Bible comes the line, "Better to light a single candle than to curse the darkness." Interestingly enough, the day we all begin to approach our affairs with precisely that philosophy, all of the planet's current religions will wither on the vine.

No...I've done my share of that too.  

However, when people begin promoting ideas like the wholesale censure of Scientology, a line has been crossed. By my way of thinking, let these people not only talk, but shout from the rooftops. The price we pay for free speech is having to listen to a lot of nutball ideas. The benefit is that those who espouse them invariably expose themselves as nutballs...
