The Martians Are Coming



The "War of the Worlds" movie is out, but who is going to it? I haven't heard any of my friends discussing it. I think the movie would have been much more popular if Tom Cruise hadn't gone completely off the deep end. Now I try to respect everyone and their "religious" beliefs, but geez Tom, you're weird.

Poor little Katie Holmes. Everyone that knows her speaks of her in the past tense as if she's dead. Katie was smart, she was pretty, she had her whole acting career ahead of her. With her own movie in theaters currently she should be sitting on top of the starlet world. But alas, there's Tom, dragging her into his robotic zombie world, all neatly planned and directed by the Church of Scientology. If Tom Cruise were a bus, Katie would be lying flat on the street wondering what hit her.

Katie was wooed into the Scientology "cult" slowly. A nice dinner with the group. Some spiritual advice. Someone offering her direction. All quaint and lovely at first, but then, the brainwashing began. Katie turned away from her old friends and made a new "best friend" Jessica Rodriguez. As Katie's new best friend, Jessica takes it upon herself to go to promotional film interviews with Katie and answer questions for her. Apparently Katie can't think for herself anymore.

So what kind of love stifles a beautiful young woman like this? How does Tom profess his love of Katie while ruining her career? Is this healthy? No. Tom is using the poor girl and she is too conditioned to realize it. I'm thinking of planning some kind of intervention for Katie. Perhaps we could show her what we see. Maybe we can break through the hold Scientology has on this innocent woman. Or maybe, there's no chance of going up against a force like Tom, Jessica and Scientology? Who knows? All I can tell you is if you see the Martians coming, or Tom Cruise and the "church", run like hell before you become a love zombie like Katie.
