Church of Scientology Condemns Tom Cruise

Unexpected blowback from Clearwater:

The Church of Scientology dealt an unexpected blow to actor Tom Cruise today, excommunicating the Hollywood star for being “too weird.”

In an official statement from Scientology headquarters, church elders said that Mr. Cruise’s erratic behavior during his ongoing courtship of former “Dawson’s Creek” star Katie Holmes was so bizarre that it threatened to reflect poorly on other Scientologists.

“The Church of Scientology likes to consider itself tolerant about the behavior of its members, but Tom Cruise has been acting like a total kook,” the official statement read.

According to Scientology insiders, Mr. Cruise began to alarm church elders last month, when he appeared on “Oprah” and jumped up and down on a couch like an insane person, proclaiming his love for Ms. Holmes.

Tom Cruise's behavior was certainly odd enough, but "so bizarre that it threatened to reflect poorly on other Scientologists?"

Really!
