He’s not the messiah, he’s a very naughty boy
The Church of Scientology has announced that Tom Cruise is the “chosen one”, and destined to spread the word of Scientology around the world.
I wonder if he’s looking on the bright side of life yet.

I’m writing you to ask for your help. This story, based on a “report” by one of England’s worst tabloids “The Sun”, is 100% false. It is also harmful, libelous and foments incorrect notions about my religion Scientology so as to cause strife and intolerance. I need your help to set the record straight.
In actual fact, nobody within the Church of Scientology considers themselves to be “Christ-like” – this would be a very inappropriate and arrogant comment and I’m sure you can see how this is being used only to antagonize Christians everywhere.
We Scientologists appreciate Tom Cruise’s efforts as a spokesperson of many of our Church’s initiatives. But he’s just an actor, holds no rank within our Church, and is by NO MEANS a “prophet” – and I am certain he himself would be embarrassed at the thought.
I hope you can help me in setting the record straight. The “Sun” is lying. Please get in touch with the Church’s Media Relations department, at http://www.scientologytoday.org/Contacts/index.htm
Thank you.
Best,
