Yep, another group I won't support.  Tom Cruise is a
gullible fool, and those who believe that cult has anything
relevant to say are all the same.  HE was smart to try to
avoid discussing his cult during his recent playboy
interview, not that he made any friends by it, but at least
I respect his work ethic.

I may have my problems with Obama, but I at least know the
United Church of Christ, as I grew up in that church, have
been a president of the council for  one of its affiliates,
etc.  They at least respect others of differing beliefs, and acknowledge that
all folks of the Christian faith are at
least under the same big tent when it comes to big picture
issues.  The U.C.C. also widely supported the abollitionist
movement and the underground railroad.  Cults such as
mormonism and scientology are all about convert 'em or screw 'em.

Regards,
           Richard
