Cruise 'is Christ' of Scientology
Sun online ^ | January 23, 2007 | EMILY SMITH

TOM Cruise is the new “Christ” of Scientology, according to leaders of the cult-like religion.

The Mission: Impossible star has been told he has been “chosen” to spread the word of his faith throughout the world.

And leader David Miscavige believes that in future, Cruise, 44, will be worshipped like Jesus for his work to raise awareness of the religion.

A source close to the actor, who has risen to one of the church’s top levels, said: “Tom has been told he is Scientology’s Christ-like figure.

“Like Christ, he’s been criticised for his views. But future generations will realise he was right.”

Cruise joined the Church of Scientology in the ’80s. Leader L Ron Hubbard claimed humans bear traces of an ancient alien civilisation.

Scientologists appear to be masters of Cruise control.

How dare those whacko compare him to our Savior? That is outright blashphemy.

The nice thing is that we won't start riots and demand people lose their jobs or be beheaded for saying it.

"Leader L Ron Hubbard claimed humans bear traces of an ancient alien civilisation."

L Ron put out a more goofy far out creation story than any I have heard so far. A Scientologists brain would have to be in the pounded into jam stage before they would believe any of it.

It must be that by the time they are initiated into the so called inner mysteries, crock of crap tho they are, they have spent too much time and money and are so indoctrinated and incriminated that they cannot quit.

I haven't a clue who a scientologist would call out to from the Cross

The U.S. Treasury?

No, Ron is God, Miscavage is the Pope...

Seriously, I personally knew some members of the "Ron is God" club.

I heard from people who know people who know people that work in the industry that Cruise's homosexuality is one of the worst kept secrets in Hollywood.

WOW! I didn't know he was gay!?!?!?.............

I have relatives in the film business. The only reason Cruise is not 'outed' is that his people will sue for defamation at the drop of a hint. They have plenty of money to bankrupt almost anyone brave and/or foolish enough to go public without ironclad proof.

Like Christ, he’s been criticised for his views.

That would make me Christlike also. And I know I don't qualify.

Leader L Ron Hubbard

"Inventor" L. Ron Hubbard.
Scientology is as much a religion as Kwanzaa is a holiday.

Sarcasm? :-) but seriously I had a tough time convincing a female friend of mine. (He can't be gay...he just can't!)

Does this mean Tom is L Ron reincarnated, ala the South Park "Trapped in the Closet" episode.

"Tom Cruise, come out of the closet!"
