L. Ron Hubbard - The L is for LUNATIC

SuzeQuze · #1 06-27-2005, 09:52 AM

This from The Smoking Gun:

Before this poor Katie Holmes completes her conversion to Scientology,
we hope she takes a moment to review some choice excerpts from the
amusing FBI file on L. Ron Hubbard, founder of the controversial, um,
religion. Story at:

http://www.thesmokinggun.com/archive...1hubbard1.html

Of particular interest is page 4 where it is written that LRH told the FBI a story of something happening to him in the middle of the night. Read by the red arrow.

Ah, good stuff indeed.

"Scientology's Nut Job Founder" How true

Do you think Cruise has converted anyone with his little rants?

How am I supposed to work now when all I want to do is watch your sig video over and over?

Sadly, yes, he has probably converted some people, probably people who were feeling lost and thought, "maybe that's it".

TSG usually tells it like it is without mincing words, haha.

I, too, appreciate the Smoking Gun....

I am also in awe of the Tom Cruise/Oprah video sig, Ive heard that his stint on Oprah was weird/scary but Im not sure exactly what happened? Apparently he "attacked" her? what is UP with that boy? He's gone over the edge a la Farrah Fawcett....

Yeah that Tom Cruise signature clip is hilarious. Looks like the crazy Emperor from the Star Wars movies!!

I can't see the signature!!!

Tom has grabbed Oprah's hands as she is sitting on the couch and it looks like they are struggling, and you see lightning from his hands filling up her body as tho he were zapping her with some sort of energy field....pretty cool actually!

I laughed at the paragraph directly above the one with the red arrow, Specifically at the words Silver Springs!!

Oh, How spooky and yet so X-Files

You can read everything the FBI had on that whackjob at http://www.xenu.net . I've read practically all of it over the years and the guy was as crazy as Hitler. The clams have been trying to shut down that site for a decade and they almost succeeded when some of the Church member contracts and internal paperwork was posted.

If you really want some laughs, though, I suggest reading Dianetics before you read anything about him.

At least Farrah has a little bit of sanity left, dear.

Totally. Except, apparently this "influence over people" actually works.

Dude - I found a copy of Dianetics at a Goodwill for like 25 cents

I was going to buy it for entertainment value - but didn't - when I went back for it - it was gone

Toothy Cruise is certainly working his magic with the American population. o_O

The scary thing is - I have a friend who's a Tom Cruise fan and he actually find Scientology interesting and says it's something he could get behind

We've had many "discussions" about this as of late....don't wanna lose a friend to a cult
