Guido Knopp: Church of Scientology Slams German Tabloid for Publishing Comments Comparing Tom Cruise to Nazi Minister

The Church of Scientology slammed a German tabloid for publishing comments by an esteemed German historian comparing Tom Cruise to Nazi propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels, according to thisislondon.co.uk.

"Bild am Sonntag is grossly irresponsible for publishing horrendous and disgraceful claims about Mr. Cruise," said Karin Pouw, the church's public affairs director, according to thisislondon.co.uk.

World War II historian Guido Knopp was commenting on a video that surfaced last week of the "Mission Impossible" star making a religious speech four years ago at an International Association of Scientologists event.
