Scientology is a CULT and Tom Cruise is its leader

Scientology according to the dictionary: A religious system based on the seeking of self-knowledge and spiritual fulfillment through graded courses of study and training. It was founded by American science fiction writer
L. Ron Hubbard in 1955.
Scientology according to anyone that isn't brainwashed: A CULT.

I was recently in Sacramento, California and went into my first Scientology building. It was located right in the middle of a resurgent downtown area that had opened their $1 Billion sports arena that is home to the Sacramento Kings. I started taking pitchers inside the building on my phone and was quickly and rudely asked what the hell I was doing in there and was accused of being part of the press campaign to smeer the Cult, oops I mean religion. I was escorted out and the door was locked.
Over the last several months, Scientology had come under fire, in part, thanks to actress Leah Remini and former "fixer" for the Cult, oops I mean religion, Mike Rinder. Leah grew up in the church as she stared on such shows as Saved By The Bell and King of Queens. Leah and Mike both regained their consciousness and left the cult abruptly. They filmed an incredible show on A&E called Scientology and the Aftermath. Season 1 was incredible in exposing the horrors of Scientology and how lives are destroyed. Each episode averaged 1.6 million viewers and season 2 will be out soon.
Someone else that deserves a TON of credit in exposing Scientology is Australian television journalist Bryan Seymour who has been writing stories for a decade. Bryan has had his life threatened, gets followed everywhere he goes, and has been called the devil by the church.
Bryan has uncovered forced abortions, beatings and sleep deprivation by the church.
Last month, the FBI released their findings of the wing of Scientology called the Sea Org where many of its followers work and live. Here is what the FBI found:

• Paying less than $50 a week so it's workers couldn't live on the outside
• Monitoring all phone calls and emails
• Limiting access to medical and dental care, and forcing women to have abortions
• 16 hour work days, 7 days a week, with no time off
• Confining workers and controlling their movements with the use of fences, cameras, and guards
• Inhumane punishments
• The confiscation of passports
• The threat of disconnection, with family members
  The church of Scientology has always considered itself above the law. It treats its own workers with callous disregard. And child molestation have been covered up for decades.
  So why do so many celebrities get involved in the CULT? Tom Cruise has risen to the top and is the most powerful person in the church. He believes that he will live for a billion years, based off of the writings of a toothless psychopath aka L. Ron Hubbard, who passed away in 1986. Controversial figure, David Miscavige then took control of the church and its finances and got Tom Cruise to the top. The two of them are responsible for all of the churches transgressions and how they can sleep at night is beyond me. If you want to learn more about this CULT, I highly recommend that you watch the show on A&E and that you read a book that was written by the father of David Miscavige, Ron Miscavige, called Ruthless that tells all about his 40 years in the church, his exit, and how his son is running the biggest CULT in the world.
