Default Does anyone know of the War of the Worlds (film) and Scientology Links?

I have heard this mentioned quite a few times and haven't really seen anything that would come across as a link. (Don't say Tom Cruise is a Link - that's not what I mean.

Has something to do with aliens being buried on earth for mi lions of years. The story of Xenu is a big thing is Scientology (http://www.rickross.com/reference/scientology/celebrities/celebrities89.html)
Hubbard, the founder of Scientology was also a science fiction writer. He turned his Scientology business into a religion to avoid paying taxes.

you can log on to the War of the Worlds official website, which is http://www.waroftheworlds.com
This is a remake of a very old movie by the same name.
L.Ron Hubbard has a book out that teaches you about his beliefs. It's called Dianetics.
Some people may take Scientology to far, but then that seems to be true of most everything.
I do know that there are people who follow the Scientology philosophy, that do not consider it a religion, and there are people who go to church who have received benefits on being a better person, from learning about Scientology. It's like everything else. Take a look, apply what works for you, and keep on going. I've learned many lessons from many different teachers, writers, etc... but I don't follow them as my Spiritual teacher. You could also put L.Ron Hubbard in Google or Yahoo, and read up on some of his teachings there
