And while Haggis quit the church over its attitude to gay marriage, his lengthy leaked letter of repudiation of Scientology, written to Davis, included another complaint: that he had lied on television about a key Scientology practice.
Haggis said he had been stunned to see a CNN clip of Davis denying that the church practises a policy of "disconnection" by encouraging members to cut ties with non-members who may disapprove of their beliefs.
The decision of Beghe and Haggis to quit Scientology appears to have caused the movement its greatest recent PR difficulties, not least because of its dependence on Hollywood figures as both a source of revenue for its most expensive courses and an advertisement for the religion. The involvement of such high-profile figures as Haggis, Cruise and John Travolta has acted as a reassurance for potential recruits against the allegations of its critics.
"All truth passes through three stages: First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident." -- Arthur Schopenhauer
I'm at cause over Val. Notice how she cannot respond to the actual allegations, but instead rushes to this video to spam it. I find it hilarious because I knew that is EXACTLY how she would respond, much like Pavlov's dog.
And now for the rest of the piece from the UK Guardian today...
At least some of the recent allegations will be familiar to Jason Beghe, the American actor. Last year he became the first of its celebrity followers for whom the church maintains a "Celebrity Centre" to break with it, after giving Scientology more than $1m in donations over 12 years. These days Beghe prefers to warn that the church is "destructive and a rip-off".

CHURCHES AND CHURCHMEN by ALAN GILL In the 1960s, Scientology was derided and virtually outlawed. A government report labelled some of its practices as harmful.
Times change. The Church of Scientology - has legal status in NSW; its ministers may legally officiate at weddings and perform other functions of a quasi-public nature.
The men described a complex system of internal justice, enforced by security checks and the threat of isolation as a so-called "suppressive person" or SP. In the interviews the men admitted using violence against other members of the church, often, they claimed, at the behest of Miscavige, also alleging that the church used private information gathered on its members to bully them and force them to do its bidding.
Scientology, which means knowing how to know, is a religion based on the works of L. Ron Hubbard (1911-1986). Scientology addresses man as a spiritual being and gives people tools they can apply to their lives to improve conditions. Among these are the techniques for alleviating spiritual trauma contained in the book Dianetics, by L. Ron Hubbard.
The Australian intervention by Xenophon was part of a wider and GROWING backlash against one of the world's most controversial movements. According to two former high ranking members' accounts, Miscavige routinely assaulted his lieutenants, including Rinder, 50 times. In one article, citing the testimony of four former members, the newspaper described Miscavige administering a vicious beating to another senior church figure, Tom De Vocht.
