Will Smith has quickly moved to quash rumours linking him with the Church of Scientology. Smith, who has been spending an increasing amount of time with The Crazy Dwarf Man (TM) has been the target of conversion rumours, but the Ali star says,
"You don't have to be Jewish to be a friend of Steven Spielberg. You don't have to be a Muslim to be a friend of Muhammad Ali. And you don't have to be a Scientologist to be a friend of Tom Cruise. I am a Christian. I am a student of all religions. And I respect all people and all paths."You know... I believe in respecting all religions. Even though most of them tell me I'm going to hell (Thanks for that by the way, God)... But I'm not sure... Does Scientology deserve respect in that way? I mean... It's so clearly a sham... And yet they have so many followers... I mean people follow Jesus and Mohammad (Peace be upon them both... See? I'm classy!) without ever having met them... But so many people met L Ron Hubbard and no one ever said that he fed an entire Scientology convention with a single bowl of soup... I mean... Even I've fed an entire room with one bowl of soup. I even had left overs! The key? Serve it really cold and tell everyone it was prepared last week... Voila! Everyone's appetite is suddenly quenched.
