What Would It Look Like If Closeted Scientologist Will Smith Met a Thetan?

As much as I adore Will Smith — and let’s be clear, mockery aside, we all adore him — it pains me to think of the backstage brainwashery going on between Will and mini-bestie who I also kind of like as an actor, Tom Cruise. For months, Smith has denied converting to Scientology, the culty religion that has already claimed the lives of Katie Holmes and, perhaps more tragically, Jenna Elfman. While we wanted to believe Smith’s persistent denials regarding his alien conversion, it seems that all flashing neon e-meter signs seem to be pointing at LIAR.

The Daily News reports:

Will Smith has joined the ranks of Hollywood power players actively recruiting for the Church of Scientology. Big stars traditionally distribute “wrap presents” to crew members after completing a film. His recent gift after wrapping next summer’s comedy “Hancock” was a card good for a personality test at your local Scientology center.

Fun! Never mind that such tests are given free by the church anyway. The quiz is designed to convert people to the religion by identifying personality flaws that – surprise! – Scientology can fix right up for you.

Let it be known that in my Father’s day, Scientologists use to offer Free IQ tests to unknowing passerby, and those who “scored high enough” on the exam would be asked to join this “exclusive” club. I’m guessing that the policy changed once Scientologists realized that even they couldn’t make high profile actors believe that they’re smart, but let’s face it — they’ve got pretty 1damn good personalities!

But back to the point of this: Will Smith is a Scientologist. This got me thinking… I wonder what Will Smith would do if he ever actually, like, confronted one of his body thetans. I bet it would involve great special effects and be hilarious! In fact… I bet it would look something… like this…
