The reporter could've at least responded with something along the lines of, "Why? Because you've gone off the deep end and millions of people will think it's hilarious, that's why. Don't be such a prick about it, you shrimpy phony..."

I missed this back about a month ago Katt. I looked into Scientology (among other "ideas") back in the dark ages of my youth (ok, only like 30 years ago in round numbers) and you're being kind calling it bordering on a cult. When I looked (and I can't imagine it's changed) I'd called it a cult. The only reason no one is doing so openly is because:
A) They haven't killed a bunch of people (yet, that can be proven)
2) "MY GOD! IT'S FULL OF STARS!" So of course it must be good.
Maybe people are starting to wake up to the idiocy of Celeb Worship and seeing Scientology for what it is. If that is true then Tom Cruise is at least partly to thank for that. And I LOVE the irony of it.
EDIT: Stupid keybird keps dropping leters and pitting in the wrong ones.

Some of the stuff I read was downright ridiculous. Things about not treating diseases and if you are physically ill, not being allowed into the religion.
WTF?
It all seemed a little "superior race" to me. And completely disgusting.
I still entertain a fantasy that it was a final "beau jest" if you will of it's creator Hubbard. I like to think he created it as just another far out work of science fiction fantasy and wanted to see how far people would fall for it.
Unlikely though, it seems he was earnest about it. Pity. Totally whacko. Anyway, off topic, and unlikely anyone here is likely to fall into it

Tom Cruie= Creepy phoney Celeb.
'Reporter'= Spineless lil' Douchebag.
The reporter could have mde that tons more interesting after it happened.. he's no Aston Kutcher(if that's saying anything)...but failed to because his puny little mind could only come up with a lame squirt gun microphone gag, yawn. I think it's funny as hell how both of them handeled it but in the end I'd have to say Mr.Creepy Cruise won that round, hands down. Then again he does have a long history of not taking any shit from the press...so it's his reaction is not a suprise at all.
I miss that Japanese tv show, with Mr. ShakyHandy?? anyone remember that ?

I agree the Shaky Hand guy gag and others like it are great. This one and others like it are stupid and dangerous. Anyone who doesn't see that is a spinless idiot just like that "reporter". And no I'm no huge fan of Tom or Scientology, this "prank" is just moronic and needs to be labled as such.

I would have come up with a witty retort though...or at least knocked his smallfry ass out if he grabbed at me like that..
sex is like a cheeseburger. when it's good, it's awesome.
when it sucks, it's still pretty damn good.
