Tom Cruise is not just one of Hollywood's leading actors, he is also the new 'Christ' of Scientology, leaders of the religion apparently believe. Reports in the Sun newspaper claim that he has been told he is the "chosen one" to spread news about the faith. Leader David Miscavige also believes that in years to come the Mission: Impossible actor will be worshipped like Jesus for his efforts to raise the profile of the religion, according to the British tabloid.
A source said to be close to Cruise told the paper: “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.”

My guess is that John Travolta is pretty miffed that he didn’t get to be THE ONE…

Isn’t that special
Hello!!!!
John Travolta is the forerunner! He’s not fit to untie Tom’s sandals…
Plus, he looks way cooler in leather!
If nothing else, this foolishness tells us that the world still thinks about “spiritual” stuff.
Ahh, Jeff. You are right.
I think what threw me was that I haven’t heard Mr. Travolta proclaiming Cruise as his messiah.
On an unrelated note, I just watched “Face Off” with JT. Pretty good (if you can bypass the four-letter words...). And no, it’s not a hockey movie!

Unlike Christ he left his wives for other women...oh never mind
Does that mean I have to relinquish my title…
What about Kirstie Alley (I hope I spelled her right). She is another high profile actress in this “religion” - could she be the new “Virgin Mary” or possibly “Mary Magdalene”?
