TomKat ‘Binky’

Here at WDS, we strive for the truth, and nothing but. That being said, this latest article comes from the NY Daily News via the paragon of truth itself: Star Magazine. (So take it with a grain of salt).

Tom Cruise, being the mundanely normal guy that he is, has added even more banality to his public life. Star Magazine reports that in keeping with the tenets of Scientology, he is having an adult pacifier made for Katie.

“He commissioned an adult-sized ‘binky’ for her to clench between her teeth, hoping that it’ll squelch her screams,” a source tells the mag. “In keeping with a Scientology silent birth, Tom is prepared to do whatever it takes to muffle Katie’s moans and groans during the delivery.”

Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard, who died in 1986, discouraged painkillers during delivery and preached that birth should be silent to “save both the sanity of the mother and the child and safeguard the home to which they will go.” The Scientology.org Web site explains: “Having a quiet, gentle birth is all about providing the best possible environment for the birthing mother and her new baby.”

Scientology just gets better and better.

Oh Joey, whatever happened to you? If you only stuck with Pacey and/or Dawson, you could have a birth like a normal person.
