Comments on: Is Will Smith a Scientologist? http://blog.spout.com/2008/01/11/is-will-smith-a-scientologist/ Daily coverage of what is truly interesting in the film world Tue, 10 Nov 2009 15:08:59 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.3 By: Tim http://blog.spout.com/2008/01/11/is-will-smith-a-scientologist/#comment-121357 Tim Mon, 23 Feb 2009 02:58:37 +0000 http://blog.spout.com/2008/01/11/is-will-smith-a-scientologist/#comment-121357 I have to say that scientology definately has hurt the caareers of all the individuals mentioned. Now sure there are/were alot of people that didnt know anything about scientology early on so telling them your a scientologist basically ment nothing to them. BUT there were alot of people that know quite a bit about it then and those people run form anyone or anything associated with scientology. Now of course the impact is greater because scientology has been in the spot light a bit. But even before the tom cruise episode it was hurting thier careers. They just didnt know it and theres no way to measure how many fans you would have had if you werent a scientologist. For me personally "I Am legend" was fantastic and im not a movie buff. But if will smith turned out to be a scientologist I would loose the respect for him that that movie instilled in me. He either is, or is fast becoming a scientologist because the personality test is step one in scientologies recruiting process. its basically a tool thats used for them to open the line to thier sales pitch. The personality test points to one door no matter who you are. 1. you take the test, 2. you get rather distubing results regardless of who you are or how healthy and well adjusted you may be. 3. Your messed up, but behind that door is scientology and for an endless series of a rather large fees they can fix you up real good.

As are most religons. Scientologists believe an Emperor captured souls and put them in volcanoes, blowing them up with hydrogen bombs. Christians believe an invisible man in another dimension created everything in a period of six days only six thousand years ago. They also believe that he came to earth as a man, his son, in order to sacrifice himself, to himself, to convince himself to forgive humans for breaking his rules (knowing that he would only be dead for three days so it was not thatmuch of a sacrifice). Of the two Scientology seems more believeable. I am a former Christian and honestly, people, how is Christianity somehow more reasonable than any of the other religions? Oh right, the Bible says it is. How can we know the Bible is inerrant? The Bible says it is so it must be true. Don't you love the circular logic? I think scientology is a load of crap.

Back on a Tavis Smiley show Smith claimed that he and he alone is responsible for his success. When Tavis Smiley tried to direct him to the fact that SOMEONE had to give him a chance in order for him to get where he was, Mr. Smith refused to see it. That told me he was arrogant and full of himself. Now that I know his association, I see that it goes along with what Scientology teaches. I just hope we don't hear about him and his peeps downing a cup of arsenic laced kool-aid back in some jungle. But that's his choice.

And before someone denies it, yes, Will Smith and Tom Cruise are intelligent people.

Christians in the ancient world, Jews more recently in Europe, and now Scientologists. I’d like to think we’ve moved beyond a time when someone’s religion necessarily limited their career options.
