Why is Hollywood so easy to convince people about joining a cult we all know and love as SCIENTOLOGY?
The Church Of Scientology has taken a couple of my favorite actors. One of them being John Travolta a born an Italian, he was grown up Roman Catholic then he sniffed the Scientology glue at some point. Now it seems that WILL Smith and his wife, Jada Pinkett Smith are on the same path.
Yes I should first mention that the Smiths deny they are Scientologists and deny the school they founded is a Scientology school — yet they’ve replaced the head of the New Village Leadership Academy, Jacqueline Olivier, with a woman who’s studied Scientology, Piano Foster.
A rep for the Smiths told Page Six, “Jacquie is no longer at the school for reasons entirely unrelated to curriculum. She is an excellent educator and fully embraced the school’s secular and open-minded approach to innovative teaching methodologies.”
But an insider told RadarOnline.com, “Her position was becoming untenable as she did not agree with Study Tech and felt uncomfortable with it.” Foster was described as “more ‘in-line’ with their thinking.”
While Smith’s spokeswoman describes Foster as a Catholic, not a scientologists, Radar reports Foster completed a Scientology Basic Study Manual course in 2005.
One of Study Tech’s harshest critics, Dr. David S. Touretsky of Carnegie Mellon University, said, “Children are inculcated with Scientology jargon and are led to regard L.R. Hubbard as an authority figure. They are laying the groundwork for later bringing people into Scientology.”
In June, Olivier defended Study Tech, telling the Los Angeles Times: “People tend to think Study Technology is a subject, but it is really just the way the subject is taught . . . the methodology doesn’t have anything to do with content.”
Touretsky said, “Study Tech is no more a secular learning methodology than wine and communion wafers are a Sunday morning snack.”
WOW, there’s a lot of He said She said going on. So whats the deal? Are they or are they not scientologists junkies? Well my friends, it seems the sad answer is they are CLOSET SCIENTOLOGISTS.
Once the come out of the closet I am sure their parents will accept them.

Will Smith denied involvement during the filming of Hancock at the request of the studio, yet he gave a combined $122,500 to the Church of Scientology, broken into these donations: $67,500 to the New York Rescue Workers Detoxication Fund, $50,000 to the group’s Celebrity Center in Hollywood and $5,000 to ABLE, another Scientology offshoot.
Will and Jada Smith just axed Jacqueline Olivier from her $200,000 a year position at New Village Academy, Smiths Scientology school, because she was not on board with STUDYTECH, the nutty, Scientology education technique.
“Study Tech” is the basis of all Scientology schools and is used to manage cult members. There are three concepts which make up Study Tech:
1.“Mass” (pictures, diagrams or objects to illustrate concepts)
2.“Gradients” (breaking concepts into simple steps)
3.“Misunderstoods” (linking all confusion to unfamiliar words).
These techniques are characteristic of Scientology’s indoctrination process. Study Tech follows the same template that the cult lays out for prospective members and introduces Scientology belief systems into young minds in the guise of secular education.
Study Tech’s “three principles” not only appear at Scientology schools, they also appear in various Scientology handbooks and “courses” such as “The Student Hat,” sold as entry-level “religious services” for a fee to new members of the cult. ” The Student Hat course is compulsory for all Scientologists, so children being indoctrinated in these Scientology learning techniques are taking the same first steps as newly minted cult members.
I’ve heard both very good and bad about Scientology. I can believe some of each mainly because I have seen it. But let’s talk about that. When compared with Christianity, Scientology is rather bland on the subject of controversy and terrible deeds. The Crusades, the Inquisition, the murder from the Cathars, the Salem witch trials. Heck, perhaps the house arrest of Galileo was pretty terrible. That’s not me going to dispute some of the negative points I’ve heard about Scientology which may perhaps or may well not be true. All I can say is, I hope the church cleans up its act. Any organization consists of men and women, and some folks get carried away.
Please, understand that in those days nobody knew anything about chromosomes!
