David Miscaviage, the Chairman of the Board of the Religious Technology Center (an organization formed to preserve, maintain and protect the Scientology religion according to its homepage)has declared that Tom Cruise is the "Christ" of Scientology. Apparently, this claim is supported not only by the fact that Cruise has been chosen to spread the word this "faith" throughout the world, but also,
“Like Christ, he’s been criticized for his views. But future generations will realise he was right.”
According to the European tabloid, "The Sun," Miscaviage believes that in the future, Cruise will be worshiped like Jesus for his work to raise awareness of the "religion." What Miscaviage has completely failed to comprehend here in regards to any parallels to Jesus Christ (which assuredly there are none) is that Jesus is not worshiped for raising awareness of a religion. Jesus is worshiped for being the only son of God (who exists in three parts: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit), for walking amongst us and living a life free of sin, dieing on the cross and then raising Himself from the dead so that anyone who would accept His death and resurrection as a living sacrifice for their sins will not die but have eternal life and be saved from a life separated from God.
It should also be pointed out that Scientology believes that a Galactic Lord Xenu originally populated our planet with aliens called, Thetans. Xenu forced these Thetans to watch a series of movies that implant false memories of the history of our planet. These false histories include both the Old and New Testaments. Which means Miscaviage is knowingly referring to something that he believes never happened. Hhhm, denying Christ's authority and claiming another will be worshiped in His place? Perhaps all the Anti-Christ theorists overlooked a possible candidate.
One can only hope that other Scientologists will feel angered beyond control over claims that Tom Cruise could somehow be greater that the cult founder L. Ron Hubbard (much the like the Pharisees felt towards Jesus) and decide to have crucified (or the scientological equivalent.) Then when Tom Cruise fails to come back to life the matter will be settled.
