Do they have a course that teaches that crazy Tom Cruise cackle?

Did I missed the conversation part?

This = all religion.

Yes.

That's not a joke even, I'll try and dig up the documentary that shows it.

One of Scientology's regular practices for all participants is pairing people up and getting them to go at each other. Sometimes one person is supposed to do their best to not respond at all, while the other tries to do and say anything they can to get a response. They practice all manner of variations on the same idea and theme, calling it all a part of 'training'. Something about controlling your emotional responses. Incidentally they end up practicing this kind of back and forth attacking, baiting and antagonizing at great length and in large groups.

It's like training people to be a55holes.

It's a mad house... A MAD HOUSE!

So the cameraman has Parkinson's?

Trained trolls, huh?

I found the video I was talking about here.

It is possibly the most disturbing video on the cult I've seen. It follows an anti-religious comedian who approaches the church about documenting the process someone like him would follow on joining. The church refuses to accept him, but he finds a break-away group practicing Scientology called the "Free-Zoners". The fellow doing the documentary frequently worries about going through with it for fear he will end up being brainwashed by the end. By the end of the video he seriously considers continuing in the group, and openly ponders if it's because he's been brainwashed or if he really got something of benefit from his time there. It's upsetting in the extreme to see the near systematic mental breakdown exercises they go through. It's just like a how to of messing with people heads and training them to mess with others heads in the same way.

scary indeed and the video I linked here seems surreal "how/why would anyone sit through that?" but look at the way the man is arguing in the video here, you can tell he's gone through some process similar to this.
