    As if the guy didn't have enough of a God complex.

    This one pretty much writes itself:


    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.”


    Upon releasing this statement, Tom's closest friends in the Church of Scientology then invited him out for "one last supper" before he takes over as the official "Christ" of Scientology.

    Cruise 'is Christ' of Scientology

    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.

    Does this mean they are going to nail his ass to a cross? I hope so. I wouldn't mind seeing this crazy die a slow, painful death.

    According to their beliefs Tom was not born of woman. He came to be when L. Ron Hubbard brought a leprechaun statue to life by reading it passages of "Battlefield Earth."

    It's quite obvious it's Katie Holmes.

    You really think Tom hit it naturally?

    I've never seen a baby bump change as much as Katie Holme's. She had the oddest looking belly and seemed to have the longest pregnancy. I still think Suri was born earlier than they said she was. Perhaps this is why...

    Rattle-Tattle?
    Oh, girlfriends, get ready! The Suri Holmes-Cruise rumor mill is back in action. Get a load of the latest one I'm hearing about TomKat's din-din out at Cut a week ago. Ready to dig in?

    According to a nearby, terribly observant, good-looking type, the veddy famous newlyweds appeared to be celebrating Suri's one-year anniversary. 'Cause they sure were giving her some awfully nice gifties! B-day time already?

    Now, that wouldn't make very much sense, would it, considering Suri-doll was supposedly born on Apr. 18 (although we never saw a birth certificate until 20 days later)? That'd be about four months off, right? 'Course, I've never been terrific with math, but you get the somethin's-fishy drift, I'm sure.Certainly if you buy into the conspiracy theories that Chris Klein is really the dad and Suri was actually born way earlier than April, then that'd be right on track. But of course, Camps Cruise and Klein have denied this one for ages.

    But like I said, this birthday biz appears to be the latest TomKat tumult getting ready to hit—just wanted everybody to be prepared. Isn't that way thoughtful of me?

    And just keep in mind: I report the rumors—you decide!

    True, but one can actually understand his God-complex if you put yourself in his shoes for a moment (if thats even possible).

    He surrounds himself with only people who agree with him.
    He is the spokesman (now Christ-equivalent) for a religious cult that worships his work.
    He is paid more money than God for his profession.
    His peers in the business worship him (publicly) in hopes of landing a co-star role.
    etc, etc...

    No one should begrudge him his ego, we are all responsible for it. By liking his movies, buying the magazines, watching the tv spots with him in it, participating in the next hallowed hall of Celebrity Worship.

    We are all guilty and isnt just about Tom Cruise. The ego of any human will expand exponentially in similar cir stance.

    I dont think I would be the same way (and certainly not a scientologist), but how the do I know that? I cant get the respect of my 2 dogs, Lord only knows what would happen if super-powerful famous types respected me.

    By no means is this post supposed to support Tom Cruise. On the contrary, I hate him, his motives, his organization, etc. But to judge so conveniently from a position such as ours is stupid. No one here knows what its like to have every single friend, associate, peer and powerful person grovel at your very presence.

    Im not so sure I would even like it, but then again, how the would I know? Ego comes with success, modesty of the truly powerful is only a facade to "relate" to the commoners. They think theyre better, they certainly have achieved better, deep down, they know for a fact they are better. When the cameras turn on is when they put on an act of actually pretending to be normal, because they are far from.

    That's what kills me about $cientology! That's exactly what he was. I remember seeing tv ads for Dianetics back in the '80s, but I'm not sure if it was for $cientology.

    When I was diving in Bonaire in the mid 90's, their (Scientology's) cruise came docked. They also had "Happy BDay L Ron!" plastered on the side of the ship as well. Looked to be a fairly good sized ship.

    When did it start becoming big with the celebrities?

    I've read accounts where people have gone to the centers to see what it was. I guess they 'audit' you (and probably your bank account) and really apply the pressure to join.

    Just when you thought it couldn't get any worser..er.

    Scientology is more like a sci-fi fundraising cult, and a joke at that. At least they don't hurt anybody other than themselves (as far as their public image goes). But they're still a creepy bunch...like that shirtless neighbor who watches me from his porch. I know I'm not the only one here.

    Dianetics is the Scientology bible basicly.
    When you see a commercial for Dianetics it's the same as seeing a commercial for The Book Of Mormom.
    My uncle is a Scientologist and everytime he goes someplace out of town he carries like 4 copies of Dianetics in his luggage.

    Actually the way my uncle became a scientologist was kinda strange...

    he was a astudent at Berkley, he was goign to be a neurosurgeon, but my grandmother cut off his $$ after she found out he had gone to woodstock. His face was on the front page of the local newspaper in the AP photo.
    So his "friend" got him involoved in Scientology becasue they would give him student loans if he worked for them in thier north Cal audit center.

    eventrually he was sucked in and was a total beliver. He quit college to work for them full time traveling around the country and training peopel at Audit centers...
    then he came to his senses and tried to escape the cult. But he couldn;t because he still owed them too much $$ for student loans, and then for other things they had paid for like his housing and Dianetics books that he gave out etc.
    So after awhile he became a true "believer" again.
    He's a friggin fruitcake.
