Scientology story blows into Chicago

Revelations about Scientology stars potentially signing away their basic human rights for religious rites at their church is spreading.

Now NBC News in the "Windy City" has picked up the story.

The Chicago station cited controversial contracts that reportedly prohibit "'any psychiatrist, medical person, designated member of the state or family member'" from placing any stars that may sign in a hospital or psychiatric facility."

Instead Scientologists that sign the documents "subject themselves to church rituals that may prohibit them from visiting family members and friends."

Should this be considered the ultimate "cult" contract?
