Jaden Smith, 14, son of Hollywood heavyweights Will Smith and Jada Pinkett Smith, believes in aliens. Which is weird, to some extent, but not so much so when you realize he's barely a teen. What is weird though is who Jaden says reaffirmed his belief in extraterrestrials: none other than President Obama.
The young actor stars in a new film alongside his famous father titled "After Earth," a futuristic sci-fi expected to be a blockbuster hit this summer. For this occasion, Wonderland magazine interviewed Jaden and found out how exactly what he means.
Jaden Smith believes in extraterrestrial life. "I like aliens!" he says. "I think aliens are really cool, because they exist." He's got proof. On a trip to the White House with his dad (Men In Black superstar) Will, mother Jada and sister Willow, he found himself in the President's Situation Room.
"I talked to President Obama about extraterrestrials. He said he could neither confirm nor deny the existence of aliens, which means they're real. If people think we're the only people that live in this universe, then something is wrong with them." [Wonderland]
Umm ... Sure.
Will Smith himself has been tied in the past to Scientology (here, here and here), acult religion that strongly believes in the existence of galactic beings (Xenu, holla!) so maybe that's where Jaden got his extremely appropriate topic of discussion with the president. Here's to hoping he grows out of it!



Press Release: Montreal and Vancouver Picket Scientology in Canada

Activism
Montreal and Vancouver Anonymous protesters gathered in front of Canada Scientology buildings today to inform the public of the cult's ongoing human rights abuses and crimes.
For several years, the collective Anonymous group, and other Canadian citizens have gathered each month at Scientology entities across Canada to educate the public.
Holding up picket signs, protesters also hope to lure 'on the fence' Scientology members out of the cult.
WireService.ca Press Release - 04/20/2013 - On June 25, 1992, seven members were convicted for operations against the Ontario Provincial Police, the Ontario Ministry of the Attorney General and the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP). The Church of Scientology itself was convicted on two counts of breach of the public trust: infiltration of the offices of the Ontario Provincial Police and the Ontario Ministry of the Attorney General. The Church of Scientology was ordered to pay a $250,000 fine.
The Church of Scientology became the only Canadian religious organization to be convicted for breaching the public -- the Church of Scientology is not officially recognised by the Canadian Government as a religion.
Although Scientology has opened a couple new ‘Ideal ORG’ churches in Quebec City and Cambridge, Ontario, over the past few years, membership is crashing fast. Other so-called ‘church’ buildings in Montreal, Toronto, and Vancouver, are crumbling from neglect.
The downtown Toronto church building sits empty—an aging structure waiting for much needed renovations. The Montreal crumbling building also has a renovation building permit pasted on the front window – an eyesore mess as seen earlier today. Perhaps one of the worst structures; literally falling apart, is their church building on East Hastings in Vancouver.
Many protesters have vowed to keep going back every month to expose the ongoing abuses, educate Canadian citizens, and petition government authorities to revoke Provincial property tax exemptions.
