lol, i'll wait till Smith confirms he's a member before i believe it. I don't doubt he took their test and looked into it, but all those quotes say is that he was introduced to it by Cruise, and the ideas of Scientology, much like any religion, are 98% the same as any other religion.

But god I hope not. Scientology is such a bunch of crap. Shouldn't even be allowed to have that name.

1. Scientology is (Please Use More Appropriate Word), based on what Wikipedia taught me at least.

2. I Am Legend sucked. Why did he have to keep the grenade exactly?

Whenever I think of Scientology, for some reason unbeknownst to be, I think of the place that Eddie Murphy's character was associated with in Bowfinger.

because hollywood doesn't want to upset people by having him killed like he was in the book, instead they want him to "die for something". Read the book man (or even just the wikipedia stuff), much better.

I hope that isn't true. Still unconfirmed at the min, hell I've got one of their surveys and it is a clever scheme. Over here they gave them out as a self help programme in the street, friendly as. Took one, read it and then tossed it.

A friend of mine is more into all philosophies followed it up. He went to a few meetings and all, and then they started trying to get him to quit his job to recruit and teach the way. His girlfriend went **** over the phone and they never called back after a nuisance threat she said she would follow with the Police.

Also in New York, they tried to get me and another friend to a "church service" with a flyer...which was actually there.

Freaky ****...anyways, I hope Will isn't. Anyways I only worship at one Church:

NOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!

Scientology is one of the worst things going these days. After watching the South Park episode (which is absolutely hilarious by the way), I looked into it. It's so damn scary. They literally brainwash people.

Check out this feature article that TIME magazine did: http://www.xenu.net/archive/media/time910605.html

It's absolutely horrifying.

Scientology is as amusing as it is disturbing. I wonder how the auditing process goes for Will and what kind of e-meter readings he's getting...

Either way, it's a shame but in terms of the political capital it will garner him in Hollywood, it's not a stunning development.

I thought he had become Muslim at some point as well, but maybe that was just because of him filming Ali or something, lol
