Scientology Inc. Obsession With Celebrity January 10, 2013, Marty Rathbun, Moving On Up a Little Higher

For how Scientology Inc.'s obsession with celebrities turned its greatest Public Relations assets into liabilities, see excerpts from Lawrence Wright's book concerning the courting of Tom Cruise and John Travolta.

Is there something about Scientology that would lead to this inevitability, or is this simply a Miscavige Scientology Inc. deal?

While the Miscavige/Cruise business is in a league of its own in terms of excess and obsession, is the inhumanity exhibited by Scientology Inc. pre-Miscavige (as most of the cruelty reported in the Travolta sections are) any more tolerable in a civilized society?
