In a new interview with USA Today, Will Smith defended his pal Tom Cruise. Smith mentioned that all the criticism Tom received because of his Scientology faith was “painful for me to see. I’ve met very few people committed to goodness the way Tom is.”

Many, many people have said that Will Smith has obviously converted to Scientology because he is best buds with Tom. That couldn’t be farther from the truth. Will raised Baptist and said that he still remains a Christian today.

Will said, “We disagree on a lot of things. But even with different faiths and different beliefs, at the end of the day, goodness is goodness.”

I love what Will says about their friendship next. He says that it thrives on rivalry. What’s their current competition? Who can sign autographs longer. LOL.

“It’s hard to beat that dude,” Smith said. “He has another gear. He did two-and-a-half hours in France for Mission: Impossible on the red carpet. Now when I go to France, people will say, ‘You know, Tom was out here for two-and-a-half hours.‘”

If I only had friends that agreed with all my beliefs and ideas, I would be one lonely, pathetic and angry woman. :D I have friends from all walks of life, and from all religious backgrounds. I admire the friendship that Will and Tom have.

(Side note: I know that anything that has to do with Scientology is a touchy subject here. Feel free to argue your points or state your opinion, but please, no name calling or disrespect for each other’s opinions.)
