		<description>&quot;Tom’s church believes that homosexuality is an illness that can be “audited” away with an E-meter (or whatever it is that they do).&quot;

Oh, you got it about right. Scientology claims that homosexuality is caused by the presence of &#039;engrams,&#039; corrupted mental presences which may be removed by an approved auditing. For a large fee, of course.

What the engrams are varies by level - at entry levels they are memories, at mid level psychic effects, and by top-crazy level they are the remains of the alien souls dropped by Xenu into a volcano before following them up with a nuclear bomb.</description>

		<description>I just flat out refuse to ever see a Tom Cruise movie ever again after finding out what a crazy moron he is.

Besides, how exciting can Valkyrie be?  We all know they fail.  It&#039;s not even like Titanic where the point is a love story and the historical event is just a tragic background.</description>

		<description>Tom Cruise NEVER said that! I watched the show and homosexuals were not mentioned there (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0jQjSuEzALM). Total fake.</description>

		<description>i watched this interview and there was no mention of any census.  perhaps it was edited out, but i think someone should confirm it was said by cruise before jumping to any conclusions.</description>

		<description>I saw a documentary on Valkyrie last night. I can see why the picked Cruise.
von Stauffenberg was a very handsome man.</description>

		<description>Most stars of Tom Cruise&#039;s calliber, go out of there way to protect their image.  I am consistently amazed at how poorly he manages his image.

Going back to his couch jumping Oprah antics on through the present, it has been a non-stop disaster.  That rambling non-sensical &quot;interview&quot; that he did for Scientology was about as creepy as it gets. He picks a fight with Brooke Sheilds about post partum depression.  It just goes on and on.  He has got to be one of the strangest people in Hollywood.  I would put him up there with Michael Jackson on the creepyness index.</description>
