According to John Duignan, the author of THE COMPLEX, a book that claims Scientology members are subjected to sleep deprivation, systematic brainwashing, incarcerated in private prisons against their will and driven to suicide claims that Tom Cruise is directly responsible for Amazon's unceremonious yanking of the book from both their UK and American sites.
Five days after The Complex's release, Tom Cruise paid a visit to the Amazon headquarters in Seattle, supposedly to host a preview of "Valkyrie," Cruise's newest movie.
However, several days after Cruise's visit, Amazon stopped selling The Complex, saying that the book allegedly makes "false claims" about a Scientologist mentioned in the text.
Duignan was a Scientologist for 22 years and claims in the book that church members, even children, were cruelly punished by the church for transgressing.
Duignan says, I directly know 20 members who went insane or committed suicide. I personally went through a period of insanity. I'm hoping this book can be a lifeline to my former comrades.
Duignan says he began doubting the church, coincidentally, at a Scientology gala that featured Tom Cruise.
According to Duignan, he began to see that the church was all about money.
An Amazon spokespeople claims that Cruise's visit and their reluctance to sell The Complex is merely co-incidental.
The book is available in the Irish Republic.

  • I've got my copy. I can see why Scientology hates this book so much, and at the next protest, Sydney will hear about what the book contains.

  • Cruis's new movie, Valkyrie, is basically Tom Cruise trying to tell Germany that Scientology would have tried to kill Hitler if they had the chance so that Germany can declare Scientology a legally protected religion with non profit status and tax exemption. How much more desperate for money can you get than that?

  • Yes! In the UK they have the balls to sell it.

  • Where can I buy the book? Links man? Amazon has like no balls. I will never buy from them again. I wish there was a company that would ignore Scilon threats and encourage people to read the truth about the hideous cult.

  • Everyone of us who wants to get it, will get it. But we need to get it out to the public to let people know about the evil cult.

  • This kinda of behavior is why scientology is opposed when will they figure that out. simple rule dont be evil
