Tom Cruise jokes and such are getting tired but I find this funny...

I have never seen a guy work so hard to kill his own career, but he is certainly doing it.

Anyone heard of this benefit he is reportedly charging like $100,000 per tables of 8 to attend to raise money for his Scientology-based treatment program for 9/11 rescue workers. Word I heard is that the medical community is laughing at it (not that I have 100% trust in our medical community either) and during the "treatment" given right after 9/11 at least two rescue workers left their families and joined Scientology after the treatments.

I don't know a lot about what Scientology has evolved into, but I have read some of Hubbard's work, the most basic of which is mostly just common sense, the deeper works get kind of odd so I pretty much stopped reading it.

Given how absolutely rediculas much of Scientology is (making even mainstream religion seem plausible to many by comparison) I am wondering what these hollywood types get out of it...Tom Cruise is a lousy example, he's a big arrogant jerk just gets media attention and whatever, but the quieter of those involved Like Travolta, Leah Remini (man, that was disappointing to read) and others that are not so in your face about it...

I dunno, just figured it'd make for interesting conversation maybe.
