When high ranking Thetan Tom Cruise isn't happy, baby Xenu cries. Allegedly , because of Mortons upcoming book, Scientology muscle has stepped up harassing people.
It's a fact that Scientology employs more attorneys than any other "religion". Morton has been so thoroughly intimidated, both by Scientologists and certain random nutty fans of Cruise's, that he's had to go into hiding like another persecuted writer, Salman Rushdie.
Morton says that The 'Church' of Scientology operates pretty much the same way radical Islamic fundamentalism operates. Morton said of his security-related exile: 'I have received threats from the Scientologists and things have become pretty heavy - to the extent that it's almost more than my lawyers can handle. ... I've sold my flat and I'm not telling anyone where I'm moving to. I intend to disappear for a while."
News reports believe that there "must be some awfully juicy stuff in that biography for Tom to get this mad. Proof that he's a homosexual maybe, and that Scientology is really just some insane cult whose purpose is to subjugate women and establish a new male-dominated order. You know, stuff we already know, but now someone's put it in a book and there are all sorts of citations so that makes it legit."
Tom, according to reports, has unleashed his Scientology goons during intense negotiations with Paramount a couple years ago, Cruise dispatched his "people" to a parking lot to confront studio head Brad Grey and pressure him into giving Tom a better deal pre-Sumner Redstone sayonara time.
Morton has good reason to go into hiding. It seems death follows Tom Cruise and Scientology. The most recent "mysterious" death of David Hans Schmidt was ruled a suicide. Hans was a publicist that Tom was mad at for stealing his wedding photos and trying to sell them. And who can forget what Scientology did to Paulette Cooper in Operation Freakout when she wrote a book that exposed Scientology.
Good luck to Andrew Morton, I hope he stays safe and I can't wait to read the book!
