June has so far been a hectic month thanks to cult poster figures Madonna and Tom Cruise. Especially the latter has been plastered all over the world’s newspapers thanks to his various antics. Now if antics were all they were up to, it wouldn’t be much of a concern, would it …

• Scientologists distort Buddhist history “The Scientologists’ ulterior motives were well and truly exposed when they were found distributing a 30 page full color, propaganda booklet in Sinhala, titled, Santhoshayata Maga (The Path to Joy) in Colombo suburbs, recently. Questions have also been raised on their movements outside tsunami- affected areas, despite their pretence of having come to aid tsunami victims.”
• Scientology: Cult of greed in divine garb “Sri Lankans did not invite Scientologist to come to Sri Lanka and or sought their support and assistance. They came and saw the situation after tsunami favorable to them and in the pretext of helping the affected people; they started exploiting the human misery and began to proselytize Sri Lankans. Shame on them - said Venerable Medagama Dhammanda of the Asgiriya Chapter, Kandy.”
• Has “Hollywood’s hottest cult” got off the hook thanks to Tom Cruise? “It looks like Madonna and her spiritual mentors at the Kabbalah Centre (KC) can breathe a sigh of relief thanks to movie star Tom Cruise sucking up the oxygen in the news lately.”
• Inside Hollywood’s Hottest Cult “A four-month Radar investigation reveals how a renegade rabbi and his striver wife ended up atop a multi-million-dollar empire built on bracelets, bottled water, and Madonna.”
• Katie Holmes was Tom Cruise’s 5th choice Gossip but noteworthy. “Katie Holmes may have fallen for it, but Tom Cruise’s sci-fi seduction technique scared the bejeezus out of Scarlett Johansson, a source close to the actress says. Weeks before he began wooing his brainwashed bride-to-be, Cruise made repeated phone calls to the 19-year-old starlet—who was then set to co-star with him in Mission Impossible III—imploring her to meet him at the Scientology Celebrity Center in L.A.” And so starts the isolation from the world and the handing out of pamphlets.
• The War on Drugs in Denmark is Probably Not Lost Really? And that is supposedly where the COS comes into play. Gotta love the COS and their sly ways of setting up various front organizations.

And it’s all made in America.
