Anti-Scientology Group Readies for Katie's Big Broadway Opening

While NYC continues its battle with Tom for Katie, All My Sons, the Arthur Miller play Holmes has been working so hard on, will soon open on Broadway. She may not have sold many tickets, but The Daily News reports that the anti-Scientology group Anonymous will be turning out in droves wearing their V for Vendetta masks (they should really look in to wearing the Tom Cruise Vanilla Sky masks). When the play had its first preview performance the group paraded on the outskirts with signs that read: "Scientology Kills" and "Free Katie, keep Tom." No doubt a pack of Scientologists will also be on hand; last time they reportedly taunted the Anonymous group by chanting: "Let's break all the windows at the Org," (the Scientology headquarters on West 46th Street). Which is kind of a confusing taunt, but what do you expect from people who actually read Dianetics?

$cientology is no religion, it's a very slick fleecing operation that preys on the emotionally weak and vulnerable (ie democrats).

Don't worry, the kid will come out against them both, if she doesn't ditch him and that religion before!

I always see those free stress tests at the 42st A/C/E station.

Scientology and Cruise has sucked the blood and looks out of Katie Holmes. She looks like 50+ years old now.

A few weeks ago they had a Scientology Blitz in the city with folks offering free 'Stress Tests' with those stupid useless E-meters. What a fuckin scam. The government should investigate and shut them down. Its not a religion its a scam

You can tell that Katie Holmes is just so unbelievably polluted.

Mr Mel

"while chanting to the high priest and xenu to rid them of harmful body thetans."

Xenu is, in scientology doctrine, the source of body thetans. He represents evil to scientologists, not redemption.

Or the Eyes Wide Shut masks. But I tried to find one of those for Halloween the same year and couldn't, so I don't guess they'd be very easy to find now.

"Let's break all the windows at the Org" is actually a scientology call-to-arms. This is followed by blowing into a conch shell wherein all the sleeper scientologists follow their adversaries to their homes, and then begin to kill all their family members, gouge out their eyeballs, and then defile their corpses with necrophelia all while chanting to the high priest and xenu to rid them of harmful body thetans.
