The Tom Cruise Scientology video they tried to suppress.
Gawker has the video that has been passed around amongst reporters, showing Tom Cruise making the argument for Scientology.
The video shows Cruise in an even more scary light than his jumping on the couch on the Oprah show, and stranger than his interview with Matt Lauer on the Today Show.
In the video he says that as Scientologists, they are the only ones who help, the only ones who can, the only way to happiness.
That they can bring peace, and unite all cultures.
Gawker is hosting the video and is so far refusing to remove it, unlike the others who had posted it yesterday and pulled it down after only a few hours.
Most of the video is rambling, it's hard to make sense of any of it, in one part he rambles this like we're all supposed to just "know."
"We know...we just know...I don't know, but we just know...ya know, it's just it...we see things...whatever, we're here to help..."
Um yeah, ok Tom, I totally got that.
He goes on and on about SP's, suppressive person, people who are enemies of Scientology.
He has this wild look in his eyes, maniacal laughter every few minutes, he fidgets through the entire thing.
This video is about him receiving the Freedom Medal of Valor award from the Scientologists.
What that means, I honestly have no idea.
The whole religion is so bizarre to me, thetans, Xenu. It is not logical or rational, and perhaps that is why I cannot wrap my head around any of it.
But Tom Cruise, if he is the way they are recruiting, they may want to rethink that because in this video, he is clearly nuts.
"If you are a Scientologist, you see things the way they are, in all their glory, in all their complexity... It's rough and tumble. It's wild and woolly. It's a blast. It really is. It is fun. Because damn it, there is nothing better than going out there and fighting the fight, and suddenly you see -- boom! -- things are better. I want to know that I've done everything I can do, every day... I do what I can. And I do it the way I do everything."

He is completely and totally nuts. If you ever want a good laugh, pick up their "textbook" -- Dianetics -- it's hard to believe any intelligent person could be taken in by this.
