Tom Cruise tried to convert Larry King

Tom Cruise

Tom Cruise tried to persuade Larry King to join his cult of Scientology. Cruise took Larry on a personal tour of Scientology’s Hollywood museum ominously called Psychiatry: An Industry of Death. It’s an exhibit exposing the evils of psychiatry for those that don’t quite get it. King has never shied away from talking about his battle with depression or his use of anti-depressants. So what does he think of the trendy religion?

“I like Tom a lot,” King told the Palm Beach Post in discussing the tour, but adds he disagrees with the actor’s and Scientology’s position on anti-depressants and psychiatry. The church blames the latter on everything from patients’ suicides to the Holocaust. “Their attack on psychiatry is incredible. They hate psychiatry.”

Scientology is going downhill. They used to woo hot young stars like Will Smith and Jennifer Lopez. Now they’re going for the easily deceived elderly. The only problem is even they know Scientology is a sham. You could print out a bill on binder paper, mail it to some old person and nine times out of ten, they’d pay it. But take them on a tour of this exhibit and they’d twirl their finger around their ear and go “Cuuuuckooo Cuuuuckoo.” Then they’d forget where they were and probably break their hip.

“Yes, we Scientologists do hate psychiatry - we believe it is a corrupt, unregulated practice with little scientific fundament….”

Scientology = a corrupt, unregulated practice with little scientific fundament.

Talk about the pot calling the kettle black.

I bet you’re single.

I just looked at your scary site, greg. good grief. Why is there a cross on that medal? You people believe in Christ Jesus? Not last time I heard. And EVERY. SINGLE THING on there is either commonly known psychology or some outlandish propaganda. BRAIN WASHING is what Scientology is all about.

You people are delusional. I have been helped immensely by psychiatry and if the “religion” of scientardagy is supposed to be better, I’ll stick with what works, thank you.

They do not kill people. That is the most ridiculous thing I’ve ever heard you people say.

If wanting to see criminal psychiatrists put behind bars where they belong is considered “hate”, then obviously a criminal is trying to redefine the term.

I don’t hate psychiatrists. But I certainly want them stopped from killing people, and will not ever be friends with one because they do kill people.

First of all, nobody “converts” to Scientology.

Secondly, Tom Cruise did not take Larry King to a Scientology center, nor did he take him to a Scientology exhibit.

Tom Cruise took Larry King to a CCHR (Citizen’s Commission on Human Rights) museum on psychiatry. Which is funded by individual Scientologists.

Yes, we Scientologists do hate psychiatry - we believe it is a corrupt, unregulated practice with little scientific fundament, no formal diagnoses or lab tests for “diseases”, that cannot cure and has not cured anything.

No, taking someone to such a museum is not by any far stretch a “conversion” attempt, and does not in fact touch on the subject of Scientology per se.

Please get your facts straight. You embarrass yourselves.

Sincerely,
Greg
Scientologist and proud of it
