Tom Cruise vows to 'clean this place up'

A new video of Tom Cruise has appeared on the internet, showing the actor telling a Scientology audience: "I do care so very, very, very much" and then saluting a giant poster of the religion's founder, L. Ron Hubbard.

The new clip, uploaded onto the Gawker celebrity website, follows another video showing Cruise talking excitedly about his faith.

The Church of Scientology has tried to suppress these videos, claiming they are copyrighted so as to stop them from being featured on video sharing site YouTube.

But even though the video has been taken off the site it has already made its way to dozens of other websites and been re-posted on YouTube. It has also been posted on file-sharing networks.

The new video show Cruise's victory speech after receiving a Freedom Medal Award.

"These are the times now people. OK?" Cruise tells his audience in the clip.

"These are the times we will all remember. Were you there? What did you do? I think you know that I am there for you."

Tapping the lecture on each adverb, he then says: "And I do care so very, very, very much."

"So what do you say?"

Wild roars answer his next question: "We gonna clean this place up?"

"OK? Because we're counting on you. OK? Alright?".

He then pauses before saying, "To LRH" and saluting a giant photo of Hubbard, accompanied by loud cheering from the audience.

Another video on the same page features David Miscavige, the leader of the Church of Scientology, at the same awards ceremony, preaching to an enthusiastic audience.

"Look at it this way," he says.

"If a Scientologist is a street sweeper, it is his responsibility to apply Scientology to his zone and to whomever he may interact with and know it's not an option.

"Not if he's a real Scientologist and when his head hits the pillow each night he better know he did all he could.

"Yes, all manner of reasons could exist to not do so but lets face it - he might be able to fool others but not himself.

"Similarly, a housewife has the same responsibilities for her family and extending out to the school her children attend and so forth.

"Then again, a corporate executive. It isn't a matter of simply being a wise member or this member or a that member.

"When you step on the path and had your first cognition you also became part of the urgent mission to carry it forth."

The new videos have already been viewed more than 90,000 times.
