Say what you will about Tom Cruise, but...
his money goes to help Dems get elected, and for that I thank him.

2. Yeah take the good (money to dems) with the bad (money to a cult)
Time Magazine called it the cult of power and greed.

3. He is an actor, a damn good one. He is an American
and he can believe in whatever religion he wishes to believe in and he can speak out about that religion.

we have a piece of paper DU members feel strongly about that guarantees his right to do this. He would have that right even if he, God forbid, donated to Republicans.

Some people lose sight of that. Freedom is freedom to be different and be accepted. You don't have to like him, but you must be willing to fight to the death to defend his right to do what he does and believe in what he believes in or you are just as hypocritical as the fools we are fighting against.
