These people are certifiable. Also, they try to sound poetic and speak in faux Olde English, but it just sounds stupid.

The vows for a Scientology wedding are more than a tad strange. Quoting from the book “The Background Ministry, Ceremonies & Sermons of the Scientology Religion,” MSNBC reports that the minister asks a bride:

And do you take
His fortune
At its prime and ebb
And seek
With him best fortune
For us all?
Do you?”

The minister then tells the groom:

Now, (Tom Cruise),
girls need clothes
And food and
Tender happiness and frills
A pan, a comb, perhaps a cat
All caprice if you will
But still
They need them.
Do you then
Provide?
Do you?

She looks positively trapped and terrified. Unbelieveable.

If this is what money and fame do to your mind, then I want to stay broke and unknown.

What a freaky photograph of the blushing bride. I'm speechless.

Lafayette Ronald Hubbard may not have been a genius, but you have to admire his creativity!

After graduating from Woodward School for Boys in 1930, Hubbard enrolled at The George Washington University, where he took a course in civil engineering. His grades, however, were consistently poor and university records show that he attended for only two years, was on academic probation, failed in physics, and dropped out in 1931 without a degree. One of his classes was on "atomic and molecular phenomena"; on the basis of this, he later claimed to have been a "nuclear physicist",[9][10][11] though his records showed that he scored an F in this course.[12]

In later years, Hubbard claimed to have been awarded a Ph.D. by Sequoia University in California.[13] This non-accredited body was, however, later investigated by the Californian state authorities on the grounds of being a mail-order "degree mill" and Hubbard later publicly "resigned" his degree after it had become the subject of comment in the press.[

So are they married or not? I think the news just said that Scientology isn't recognised in Italy, so they need to have a civil ceremony for this to be legal. ???

perhaps a cat.

Um, shouldn't the woman be providing the MAN with a little kitty?

Oh, wait, we're talking about cruise and $cientologists. No kitty wanted.

They're just the ticket to whip global warming/cooling. Oh, I forgot they just shovel it, they don't believe it either.

there are five versions of the Scientologist wedding ceremony: traditional, informal, single ring, double ring, and concise double ring

And specially for cruise, the double anal ring.

Run, Katie! RUN!

Did you hear Jimmy Kimmel on this? He said something like "Tom spent the morning with his friends while Katie spent the morning sewing her bedsheets into a rope ladder." LOL!

If only I could hear the thoughts of Brooke Shields as she witnesses those vows.

The Cruise marriage must be followed by a civil ceremony in Italy since Italy does not recognize the Scientology marriage ceremony as legally binding.So they're not really married, but can still honeymoon on their planet.Whatever it is

I read that while there is a silly ceremony, there will not be a civil ceremony. Katie has a kid to cement child support, but she's darn stupid if she doesn't have a good lawyer to write a palimony agreement.
