					<description><![CDATA[Tom&#039;s Rogue Nation has done fantastic but though it cost 150 million to make, it has only made a little over 40 million here in America as of October 4, 2015.  Overseas, it&#039;s put the box office combined at 679 million.  Fantastic but Americans are not going to see him anymore.  He&#039;s just weird and you NEVER see this guy doing anything normal and routine with other people.  Does this guy have any real friends?  it&#039;s just not normal to most of the public  I like Tom but stop taking all this so seriously and appreciate your fans.]]></description>

unless rathbun is lying big time, he was cruise&#039;s ONLY auditor for 3 years from 2001 to 2004 i believe and audited cruise countless times during those years as well as previously.. i always have wondered and perhaps rathbun has explained in great detail in any of the books he has written exactly what was said, done, etcetera to cruise to make him go from &quot;this is nuts, i&#039;m out of here, what&#039;s this science fiction shit!&quot;, a huge argument with miscavige when he found out about the whole xenu ot 3 level story, leaving scientology for years, and then when he divorces kidman for whatever reason, miscavige orders rathbun to bring cruise back in ( based on the scientology books recently printed) and suddenly cruise became SUPER CULT ZEALOT! willing to go on and on about it to anyone who will listen, willing to lose wives, his reputation, etcetera for the cult and also now miscavige is his best friend! that&#039;s the story i want to hear and read! what did micavige and rathbun do and say to make cruise do a 360 degree complete turn around!]]></description>

that&#039;s the original problem isn&#039;t it. he&#039;s not smart. although nowadays he likes to &quot;splice&quot; his interviews with unique or interesting words... however, just because one uses these types of words does not make one intelligent, just because you (cruise) has experienced the world over and had alot of unique experiences does not make one necessarily &quot;intelligent&#039; i mean he was diagnosed with a learning disability and was a very very average student who only has a high school degree. add in his pathological stubbornness, the ego of a huge movie star, surrounded by butt kissers for the past 30 years. scientology handlers for decades, his neediness and insecurity and self importance and need for self importance, his very very quick rise to superstardom ( the guy started acting in 1981 and only 5 years later is the worlds&#039; biggest movie star with top gun! and only 2 years after acting was a star wtih risky business)  all this added with him not being the smartest tool in the shed and there you have the classic textbook for someone who has too much fame, too much money, all too soon and ripe for a cult &quot;pickings!&quot;... but he&#039;s 52 years old now... you would think by now he would be wiser and mature to have woken up or to have someone anyone wake him up! three divorces and he hasn&#039;t thought &quot;maybe it&#039;s me?&quot;... ever??! all i know is thank heaven i&#039;m not in  that much of a bubble as he is! heck, that&#039;s not a bubble, that&#039;s a balloon he must live in!]]></description>

Exactly what is good about breaking up families, coerced abortions, and holding people in makeshift prisons?  


You expect people to know about these things and somehow keep an open mind about Scientology?]]></description>
