Between the big signs being placed in his house telling everyone to stay quiet around his spawn, the ipod and adult sized pacifier for Katie to chew on during labour and his just general ass-hat nature, Tom Cruise scares me.
And what the fuck happened to Katie Holmes? I mean she wasn't all that "in the news" before she started playing tonsil hockey with Tom, but was she always that vacant? Did Tom give her a lobotomy?!
Why are we all just learning about Tom's craziness?! I know he fired his publicist but unless she was drugging him, there is now way he could just all of the sudden decide to go on TV and be a crazed asshole all the time, right?
And what is all this crap about a silent birth!? I went to the Scientology website to find out...
What is a quiet or silent birth?
Having a quiet, gentle birth is all about providing the best possible environment for the birthing mother and her new baby.
It is labor and delivery done in a calm and loving environment and with no-spoken words by everyone attending as much as possible. Chatty doctors and nurses, shouts to “PUSH, PUSH” and loud or laughing remarks to “encourage” are the types of things that are meant to be avoided.
As L. Ron Hubbard, Founder of Dianetics and Scientology, wrote, “Everyone must learn to say nothing within the expectant mother’s hearing during labor and delivery.” And, “A woman who wants her child to have the best possible chance will find a doctor who will agree to keep quiet especially during the delivery, and who will insist upon silence being maintained in the hospital delivery room as far as it is humanly possible.”
Does this mean that a mother cannot scream or moan at all?
Of course they can make noises — the point of silent birth is NO WORDS. This is a principle of Dianetics and to fully understand why, read the book Dianetics the Modern Science of Mental Health, by L. Ron Hubbard. It is words that are the culprit. Outside of not speaking, the objective is generally to have as peaceful and relaxing an environment as possible for the mother and child. It is doubtful that any woman could give birth without making any noise at all.
Mothers naturally want to give their baby the best possible start in life and thus keep the birth as quiet as possible
Newsflash, babies can hear in the womb. They know sound is supposed to occur, so when they are born and all of the sudden there is no more sound, then wouldn't that freak them o
ut even more?! How are you supposed to bond with a child if you can't talk to it?
What is Scientology anyway? Every time someone tries to interview the church, they end up getting sued, and if you try and lampoon them Tom Cruise will probably try and crush you.
It almost makes me want to read their stupid books just so I can understand what all the fuss it about, but then I might end up like Katie, all vapid and silenced, and not just during child birth.

Oops. Damn typo. Thanks for joining the Revolution.
What cracks me up the most is that the very people who mock Christianity as being for lunatics are many of the same people who believe that Scientology is enlightened. Yeah, it's WAY more logical that we are all alien descendants waiting for our mother ship to come back.
I think that L.Ron is laughing all the way from his grave at just how gullible some people are and how much money he made from them.
And since Jadette was born via emergency c-section, can you imagine someone conducting surgery without speaking a word?
Katie Holmes has been assimilated. That's some frightening shit.
todd- of course!
Jaded- Why is katie never alone? why is she always followed by new best friend who just happens to be on the scientology payroll?
Assimilated is a good word, and so true.
And in a religion deathmatch christianity would win!
Can they sue you? They like to sue people, you know.
hmmm I hope I wouldn't be a blip on their radar....
Hubbard wrote sci-fi before Dyanetics. That should say something about the whole venture of Scientology.
it's great how a man can dictate that pregnant WOMEN who follow his "religion" should birth a child silently. Of course he is also pretty sure that there's no such thing as post partum depression.
AUGH!!!
I can't stand it. I just can't stand it.
I think his nuts should be put in a vise the entire time she is in labor. Everytime she has to push he gets the squeeze.
i like your thinking brooke.
i remember back in the day when people though scientology was cool and edgy, like the new black.
now, thanks to tom cruise and his wack job antics- we can all see what a freakshow that whole "belief system" is. i'm all for thinking outside the box- but man, oh man- just when i think scientology can't get any more repulsive, i hear about some new "principle" of the religion and it all sinks to a new low.
I wonder the same thing...why does she need a Scientology chaperone at all times? Why does Tom do all the talking? They can't honestly believe that he's the smart one, can they?
The thing about him being a scifi author is exactly why I think L. Ron had to laugh at the lunacy that people would believe him. He made his living by making crazy shit up, why would this be any different?
Do you think Mary, who gave birth in a friggin cow stall, was silent during the birth of Jesus? So, if noise and cow shit are good enough for Him, then a little moaning and groaning and screaming at the man who impregnated you is good enough for the rest of us.
Nuts in a vise. Love it.
brooke- lets see how long he can go without screaming...
dia- scientology, khaballa how the hell can there be a vogue religion?
do you wonder if some of these celebs that have joined have any idea how silly they look? It's not a new dress, its a belief system!
Jaded- I love the comparision, especially since the media is treating this spawn and the chosen one.
