Just when you thought their marriage could not get any creepier, the latest news in the charade of a marriage that is TomKat is that Tom Cruise is making his robot wife confess her sins to him on a weekly basis.
Did I squeeze too much into one sentence again? Okay, let me break it down. Tommy is making his shrinking little robot wife tell him anything she may have done wrong in any given week; this is to ensure that, according to $cientology doctrine, the marriage stays ‘moral’.
Katie Holmes may be coming to the end of her Purification Rundown diet, but it seems she isn’t stopping there with her commitment to Scientology. The 30-year-old actress resolves problems with her husband Tom Cruise by making weekly written confessions, as laid out in the Scientology code.
‘Katie has to confess to something as minor as forgetting to tell him she has met with a friend,’ says a source.
‘If she commits a transgression against the moral code of their marriage, she has to tell Tom in writing, giving full details of the time and place and what happened.’
From what I gather from the Daily Fail snippet above, this is essentially tantamount to Tommy pulling a lever on her back, and robot-Katie printing out a little receipt with all her transgressions written in Ironic Sans on 80’s style printer paper with the little holes down both sides. (Katie is an old-fashioned robot and so can’t print on that fancy new-fangled printer paper!!!).

[...] Proof that Tom Cruise thinks he God – AG [...]
Does he carry around a box for these photo ops so he doesn’t look too short next to his missus.
Does he have to confess to her I wonder?
I think he does. Maybe a phone book though, or something more subtle?
This is one of my favorite gossip stories ever. Katie is a robot and she just doesn’t get it. Why not make her turn in reports like a little child?! Tom owns her.
I know right. She is so short sighted, it makes me weep for her.
so Tom Cruise is a priest now? WTF?!? wonder what kate confesses to him. probabaly something like “i ate a hershey’s kiss today” lol
In short, yes he thinks he is! What a delusional little troll.
[...] Katie Holmes writes weekly confessions to Tom Cruise. (AG) [...]
I have two thoughts on this, IF it’s true (which, I loathe Tom Cruise enough to just blithely accept that it is):
1. Is this reciprocal? Does he have to write weekly confession letters to HER? Although, honestly, since she only has to report anything that violates the “moral code” of their marriage, seems to me the only time she’d have to confess anything is if she decided to give an interview that yes, it IS all a sham, and yes, Tom IS gayer than a treeful of monkeys on nitrous, and yes, Suri IS the result of donated sperm and a turkey baster, and yes, she DOES feel a little foolish for going along with it all so long.
2. How does any logical person think that this “confession” scenario is going to work, anyway? Honestly, what, a spouse is going to sit down on Saturday afternoon and write a letter that says, “Dear Honey, I forgot to tell you that I met with a friend on Wednesday. I also forgot to tell you that the friend and I met in a luxury hotel room, and that within 45 seconds of my closing the door we were naked as the day we were born and bonking like bunnies. I may have also forgotten to mention that after the first 3 hours of crazy-wild animal sex (out of a total of 8 – it would have been only 6 hours but you had Pilates that day so we had extra time), we ordered room service and I ate an entire piece of bread. With butter. Also, I bumped the door on your Ferrari with my watch and made a teensy little scratch. Sorry.”
Even if it is true, it’s just dumb. If someone is doing something they want to hide, they’re not going to hide it all week and then go, “Oh dear, it’s Confession Writing Day, I have to face the music now!”
Hi again E, thank you so much for coming back to the site and for leaving another wonderful comment. I am not sure if this is true, but concur that $cientologists are generally twisted enough that there is a fair chance this is true.
1) Nowhere can I find any reference to him making confessions. It sounds like the onus falls solely on the wife. Also, I love the comedy examples.
2) It would become glib, as Tom might say, after a while. The woman barely leaves his side… how much trouble could she possibly get into???
It is reciprocal and a very basic part of the Scientology practice –Confessionals are.
A person write up their transgressions. They also pay the Church to professionally pull the withholds….that is in a room with a meter, to find the sins that need to be yanked out.
It is kept in records forever.
Confessionals are liberating except when used against the innocent in subtle ways. Just the fact that its in writing could be intimidating.
And also not subjecting each other to fair, consistent terms and standards of behavior. The craftier people get away with all kinds of things! While the innocent are confessing, thinking their ideals are being met.
A friend of mine even had a technique used on him which was that it’s a given that everyone is hiding something — so when you “get off” (confess) a “small” sin they encourage you that there must be something more and huge. They bait people to get pretty wild in their confessions. Even things like blowing up planets, according to a first hand account from people who experienced it.
Hi Tuscon, welcome to the community and thank you for taking the time to give input with such a detailed comment.
Thanks also for the correction. I’m no expert and so can only go on what I find.
That seems to answer E’s questions so I shall leave it to her to read and respond to if she would like…
