The REAL reason scientologist Tom Cruise jumped on Oprah Winfrey's couch!

Here's the real reason scientologist Tom Cruise jumped on Oprah Winfrey's couch in apparent elation while expressing his love for Katie Holmes. I cover the history of the Church of Scientology in the lead-up to the event, including how emboldened it felt with its tax-exempt status, and being cleared of all kinds of alleged issues including the one relating to Lisa McPherson. They started interfering more in Tom Cruise's life, and using him more to promote scientology in 2005. I discuss how David Miscavige differs from founder L. Ron Hubbard.
