Tom doesn't want a Smokin' Wife

Tom Cruise has reportedly banned Katie Holmes from smoking. The domineering pro-scientology actor is said to have been furious after discovering his actress wife had taken up the butt-sucking habit again and is now trying to force her into giving up cigarettes.

A source said: "Tom leads a very disciplined life and happily encourages Katie to follow Scientology and purification detoxes. He is livid she’s started smoking again and is doing everything he can to put pressure on her to quit what he calls a filthy habit."

That's the funny thing about Scientologists. They swear by anything L.Ron Hubbard uttered or wrote, until it's something they don't agree with. I believe it's called cherry-picking, Tom.

You see, L.Ron said in one of his expensive lectures (SHSBC-35 6107C19, Q-and-A Period: Auditor Effect on Meter, 19th July 1961):
"... Not smoking enough will cause lung cancer. Not smoking enough will cause lung cancer!...". And for you doubters, here is an excerpt of the audio from that lecture. Take it away, Ron....

From SHSBC-35 6107C19, Q-and-A Period: Auditor Effect on Meter, 19th July 1961:"Well, there are societies in England that are having an awfully good time fighting the cigarette. They can't do anything else, so they fight cigarettes. And they say that the cigarette causes lung cancer. And they've -- you've been hearing something of this, I'm sure. Yeah. Not smoking enough will cause lung cancer. Not smoking enough will cause lung cancer! If anybody is getting a cancerous activity in the lung, the probabilities are that it's radiation dosage coupled with the fact that he smokes. And what it does is start to run out the radiation dosage, don't you see. But I'd say that would be better than not running out any of the radiation dosage at all and the number of lung cancer cases which exist, of course, that don't smoke are just forgotten about by these societies, but they are very numerous.<br /><br />Anyway, there's nicotinic acid in that cigarette. Inevitably, on inhalation of tobacco, you will get some of this phenomena of face flush, but in view of the fact that a cigarette isn't pushing its smoke over the outside of the body but on the inside, of course, you run it out internally"
