I don't know much about the religion of scientology other than that they believe in ancient aliens also (very crudely I'm sure). Can anybody who knows about scientology share their opinion on this? Just curious...

Wow it's amazin wht ppl believe. Really amazin. I am Christian Yes I believe in Jesus as my saviour. I know that when ever I pray specially when times are tough things always seem to work out. There is a higher power it just can'r be fate or good luck really. So to each his own. I do believe something happened that made us humans different from the rest of this worlds creatures. I also believe that its not entirely impossible that ther can't be other extra terrestial life out there. Really with more than billions of planets out there? Who ever created us created other creu$atures too. Someone is watching. I know it.

I really really like the thinking of those that believe that G-D is something that exists on an individual level... inside...each of us. As for it being one single individual that created the Human Race... this... I find very very hard to stomach.

@BigDave, I have read both the Bible and the Quran and the books of many other religions and myths. The Bible is like a condensed history that contains wisdom that you can use to inform your life. There is nothing new under the sun and if you behave this way the result will likely be that. There was a one season show on HULU called "The Booth at the End" in which a man gave advice to people who asked for his help. My interpretation is that he had a great knowledge of cause and effect. For any person to get what they want they need to do what he suggests. Do this, get that. Cause and effect. The Latin word Religios means "what came before" or tradition.

Yeah i do try and beleave in a God, but then my rational brain looks at all evidence and i find it thus hard to beleave what some Science and Religons are saying. Thats before the Hypocracy. I would say i follow a more Spiritual/Inlightenment than any religon, i do find the Ancient Astronaught theory does have some weight. But we cant prove any beleaf really.

Funny enough, my faith actively expects that there has been, and will be other intelligent life in other planets. In fact, its one of the issues that separates us from other Christian denominations.

I would say no but definetely inspired by it. I see the cross the main character wears and the comment "and who made them?" as direct replies to the scientology bs. I thought it was visually brilliant, I loved the analogy between GAnesha and the helmets (out of principle I ain't spoiling so vague) and in essence I liked the experience of the movie. But for once, just once, can we get past those weird skulls and genetic manufacturing of humanity as scifi story and get back to massive machine gunning of nasty aliens or that nasty suspense you also got in Prometheus the moment they enter the ship. The whole god thing is a bit pompous, a movie shouldn't always answer existential questions because in no way it can coherently answer such questions. I liked the ride of Prometheus but ever since the Matrix directors are either blatantly promoting scientology or trying to outphilosophise each other and factually try to answer the hardest question there is. Ridley Scotts answer was that there's no answer just a new barrier to that answer and that's deep. But I couldn't help but yearn for a bad mofo to step out with some heavy artillery. I also get that when I hear and see Scientology people. They are commiting blackmail on a massive scale. They lure you in with celebrity and contacts next get you to spill your guts and next blackmail you and take over your life. I don't do churches, I picked up the books and made up my own mind.
