In a revealing interview with “20/20,” “King of Queens” star Leah Remini opened up about her break with Scientology in 2013, explaining that part of her decision to leave the church grew out of her discomfort with the attention that the organization lavished on its star member Tom Cruise, who she felt was embrarassing the Church with his frequent public antics.
“I was saying that I didn’t think he was becoming of Scientologists, jumping on couches, and attacking Matt Lauer, to attacking Brooke Shields,” she explained. “What the hell is this guy doing? We need to rein it in. We need to stop all this. And he just needs to be an actor.”
Remini details a story of church officials inviting her Tom Cruise’s home one night to teach him salsa dancing. When she got there, Cruise and his new girlfriend Katie Holmes were making out, and Remini joked that they ought to “get a fricking room.” Church officials then filed a “knowledge report” (basically an official complaint) about Remini, which the actress was forced to deal with in auditing sessions.
As she explains, she was “immediately dealt with” after the “incident,” with the Church implying that “the only reason you’re saying these things is because you have your own transgressions.”
“You immediately become guilty,” she added. “Being critical of Tom Ccruise is being critical of Scientology itself. You are a person who is anti the aims and goals of scientology, you are evil.”

Why this bizarre cult based entirely off the ramblings of a hack science fiction writer, still has its tax exempt status as a "church", escapes me.
For the same reason all the other religions do.
She is awesome.
Tom has it made in this cult, he gets to have sex with all the women and little girls, just like other cult leaders do.
Not sure Tom is interested in girls and women
