Religion Information:

Tom Cruise is one of Scientology’s most outspoken supporters. He has a reputation of a crazy, angry person who is very unpredictable. Because of this, Cruise is now considered one of Hollywood’s weirdest and most ridiculous personalities. One minute he is jumping on Oprah’s couch and the next he is ranting about medication and psychiatry, saying things like:

“Some people, well, if they don’t like Scientology, well, then, fuck you. Really. Fuck you. Period.”

Even though most religions have strange stories, Tom Cruise’s Scientology seems to be especially weird. They believe that humans descended from some type of alien and that psychiatry is evil. They ordain their high-ranking members only at sea in their own personal cruise ship. A number of people have done skits on the interview of Tom about Scientology where he sounds almost ridiculous and at some points even comical.

Political Views:

Tom Cruise goes both ways in U.S. politics. He’s made tens of thousands of dollars in contributions to the Democratic Party but has also appeared in Republican candidate’s campaign commercials. However, the Republican candidate to whom Cruise lent his star power to was a supporter of Scientology.

It is likely that he looks beyond the party of a politician for issues relating to him, he once stated:

“I’m interested in terms of looking at how it’s going to affect my kids. And it’s more from a humanitarian aspect, not political. You know, the future of the country, and where we are today.”

He is mostly a Democrat, but wouldn’t mind crossing the line to Republicanism when it suits him.
