Shouldn't our most famous couple have gotten married BEFORE they had a baby?

Yes, And i noticed that no news cast asked that question. I believe it all has to do with money.

What has this got to do with Scientology?
Famous couples personal lives is their business.
They seem to be getting on pretty well from my observation anyway.
Go bash some other religion via a celebrity for a change, or get a life. This is getting boring.

What they SHOULD do is remove themselves from that greedy, dangerous cult. I notice you asked this in the "R&S" section, but it's NOT a religion. It's a cult and a bu$ine$$.
L. Ron Hubbard has been quoted as saying: "Writing for a penny a word is ridiculous. If a man really wants to make a million dollars, the best way would be to start his own religion" http://lisatrust.freewinds.cx/scientology/hubbard.htm
The cult is mostly a high powered scam. It pays members 10% commissions, called FSM (Field Staff Member) commissions, on new recruits they bring in who take a course or get counseling, so Scientology members routinely try to "sell" Scientology to others.
The new members then, in turn, donate vast amounts of money to the "church". Here is a run-down of all the costs involved with Scientology: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientology_as_a_business#Costs
Here is testimony from a woman who had been involved in exposing Scientology and other cults for most of her adult life: http://www.clambake.org/archive/books/tsos/sos-19.html
Even more proof that Scientology is out for your money... here is Hubbard discussing turning Scientology into a "religion" for profit:
"I am not quite sure what we would call the place - probably not a clinic - but I am sure that it ought to be a company, independent of the HAS but fed by the HAS. We don't want a clinic. We want one in operation but not in name. Perhaps we could call it a Spiritual Guidance Center. Think up its name, will you. And we could put in nice desks and our boys in neat blue with diplomas on the walls and 1. knock psychotherapy into history and 2. make enough money to shine up my operating scope and 3. keep the HAS solvent. It is a problem of practical business. I await your reaction on the religion angle. In my opinion, we couldn't get worse public opinion than we have had or have less customers with what we've got to sell. A religious charter would be necessary in Pennsylvania or NJ to make it stick. But I sure could make it stick." http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientology_controversy#L._Ron_Hubbard_and_starting_a_religion_for_money

According to scientology the self is number one and wife and children are further on down the list.
You can check on their official website for exact ranking of wife and children. I can tell you that on the list of one to ten most important things that self is number one and God is number 10, all else falls inbetween these rankings.
So, no, in following the teachings of scientology, self will always be first and only when the self wants to do something, will the other things follow.

Lol. I guess that the aliens don't look down on their congregation's morals.
