Ruth asks…
Do all Scientologists believe in the Great Alien Warlord Xemu???
I’ve heard some strange religious beliefs before but this takes the cake – has anyone else heard of this? Do Scientologists believe this? Does Tom Cruise believe this?
And what PROOF do they have??

Joy answers:
If you are a Scientologist, you don’t learn the story of xenu until you are studying for the OT 3 level. They are told that if they read the story before they are ready, they will die of pneumonia. As for proof, L. Ron Hubbard, founder of the church, the science fiction writer, claimed to have journeyed back in time and witnessed this firsthand, escaping unscathed and surviving to come back and share this great secret with humanity. As for whether Scientologists actually believe this…you can watch a video on youtube of an interviewer asking some famous Scientologists about xenu, and every single one of them acts like it’s the first time they’ve ever heard of it. Hell, we’re not even Scientologists and we’ve heard of it. It would be much more believable that they don’t know about xenu were they to answer something to the effect of, “Oh, yeah, I’ve heard that, but that’s not something that we believe. It’s just made up by the media to make us look weird, that’s all.” A little more believable than, “What? I’ve never heard that before. Xenu?”
