- Denis Leary: Tom Cruise takes a lot of shit for belonging in a religion called Scientology, which believes aliens landed on the Earth 150 million years ago. Big deal, I was raised catholic, we believed Jesus' mother was a virgin, that he walked on water, created a bottomless jug of wine and raised from the dead. Yeah, and Tom Cruise is crazy. Christmas is built on a line of bullshit. Do I believe in a baby Jesus? you bet your ass I do, but I also believe someone sure as shit banged the hell out of his mom.
