Tom? Sorry, I have more important things to worry about ::rant on::
Yes, he has strange views. Yes, he climbs on chairs and acts like a monkey. I acknowledge that. I just don't obsess over it, trying to massage my ego by telling everyone how unstable this world-famous multi-millionaire is; which, by implication, must show that I am stable.

Yeah. Scientology is downright strange. To me though, it isn't any stranger than huge percentages of the human population spending the week gambling, cheating on their spouses, killing people directly, indirectly through release of toxins, or by inaction; burning books, and burning out independent thought. These same people then have these little social get-togethers/community scary story meetings where they all get on their knees, make a little antenna out of their hands, and try to psychically communicate with some invisible father figure in the sky.

But hey, if they want to believe, that's their business. Be it Scientology or otherwise.

So... how many hundreds of thousands of human lives have been taken by those wacky followers of Scientology over the years? Ummm... thousands of lives? How about hundreds of lives? Ok... tens of lives? Gee, what a strange belief system they must have. Nothing at all like the sensible, loving, logical one espoused by the followers of the invisible father figure in the sky.

And that chair bit and other antics, gee, he's if that doesn't show how strange he is, nothing does. Why can't he do sensible things like painting his face, getting 'faced drunk, and spilling beer on people and/or getting into a fight because someone just carried a piece of pigskin a few yards... or scratched a $250,000.00 automotive paint job... or because a costumed character just brained a different costumed character with a folding chair. Or, I know, maybe he could pay attention to the strangers on the little glowing box in the living room, put on pretty clothes, and go kill some other people that are wearing a different color of pretty clothes... now *thats* what logical people would be doing.

So, he's weird. So what. Life is weird.
