Quote from timmer33:
Who cares what Cruise is like in the real world?


L. Ron Hubbard, creator of Scientology, is referred to as "Source" by Scientologists, and all of Hubbard's writings are revered as immutable, sacred scriptures -- thus his Church sanctifies lying and racism. A hate-based doctrine is the antithesis of Gene Roddenberry's Star Trek.

Why would we knowingly subsidize a viral hate-based agenda? Scientology requires its members to donate hefty portions of their income to the Church. When Cruise makes money from box-office or DVD sales, a nontrivial amount of cash goes to Scientology.

Cruise's next film, Valkyrie, has him in the lead role as heroic German army officer Claus Schenk Graf von Stauffenberg. The German government sees this as effectively whitewashing the vocal Scientology belief that psychiatry is a "Nazi pseudoscience" responsible for the WWII holocaust. Von Stauffenberg's eldest son has stated, "[Cruise] should leave my father alone."
