Fidei Defensor Posted June 13, 2005 Posted June 13, 2005 [url="http://www.cnn.com/2005/SHOWBIZ/Movies/06/13/people.holmes.ap/index.html"]http://www.cnn.com/2005/SHOWBIZ/Movies/06/...s.ap/index.html[/url] LONDON, England (AP) -- Katie Holmes says she's converting to the Church of Scientology, embracing the religion of her boyfriend, Tom Cruise. Holmes, in London to promote her new film, "Batman Begins," said Monday that she's excited about her lessons in Scientology, a religion founded by science fiction writer L. Ron Hubbard. The 26-year-old actress and Cruise went public with their romantic relationship in April. The former Catholic and star of television's "Dawson's Creek" grew up with a poster of Cruise on her bedroom wall and has said she grew up wanting to marry him. "We all keep dreaming, and luckily, dreams come true," Holmes said. Cruise was in Tokyo Monday for the premiere of his new film, "War of the Worlds." In an interview in the June 17 issue of Entertainment Weekly, the 42-year-old actor was asked if Holmes is curious about Scientology. "Yeah, absolutely. She digs it," he tells the magazine. In response to a question about whether he'd asked Holmes not to do "Factory Girl" -- about Edie Sedgwick and Andy Warhol -- because of the drug use in the movie, Cruise says: "I don't even know what 'Factory Girl' is." He adds: "Listen, the thing you've got to know about Katie is that she's an incredibly bright and self-determined woman. She makes her own decisions." Cruise was previously married to Mimi Rogers and Nicole Kidman, and dated Penelope Cruz for several years. Holmes and actor Chris Klein recently called off their engagement, after dating for five years. When asked by Entertainment Weekly if he plans to propose to Holmes, Cruise replies: "It's gonna happen, man. It'll happen."

Fidei Defensor Posted June 13, 2005 Author Posted June 13, 2005 This makes me the saddest because she used to be Catholic
Dudette Posted June 13, 2005 Posted June 13, 2005 yeah I know. Prayers for those who do not know their faith well.
Noel's angel Posted June 13, 2005 Posted June 13, 2005 THE FOUNDER WAS A SCIENCE FICTION WRITER FOR GOODNESS SAKES!!!!!! How stupid do you have to be???? I heard Tom tried to force his other partners into converting too-she's young and 'in love' for all of about 5 minutes-of course she's gonna agree to it GRRRRRRRRR

Praying that she will open her eyes and realize that Scientology is nonsense.
Guest Eremite Posted June 13, 2005 Posted June 13, 2005 This makes me . Katie needs to about her Catholic faith. Maybe she should come online to Phatmass and get :pebcam: with truth. This will :transform: her in the renewal of her mind, lead her to want to be to the world, and go to .
St. Catherine Posted June 13, 2005 Posted June 13, 2005 Maybe she should look into her Catholic roots, rather than to a "religion" that is founded by a fiction writer.

philothea Posted June 13, 2005 Posted June 13, 2005 Eremite! Very cute. Hubbard wasn't even a [i]good[/i] science fiction writer. Now Niven, or Clarke, or Pohl... one of THOSE guys could've come up with a decent false religion...
Keharitomeni Theotokos Posted June 13, 2005 Posted June 13, 2005 Here is more info. about the so called "religion". [url="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientology"]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientology[/url]
St. Catherine Posted June 13, 2005 Posted June 13, 2005 [quote]Hubbard wasn't even a good science fiction writer.[/quote] Apparently, that must be true because he had to make up a religion to pay the bills.
Dave Posted June 13, 2005 Posted June 13, 2005 You guys also know that Tom Cruise is a former Catholic as well, right? And that he even considered the priesthood and was a seminarian?
MilesChristi Posted June 13, 2005 Posted June 13, 2005 [quote]You guys also know that Tom Cruise is a former Catholic as well, right? And that he even considered the priesthood and was a seminarian?[/quote] I didn't know that. Wow, I wonder how he ended up wandering so far from the Church...
