So, a few things. First, yes, this what Scientologists actually believe. Second, if you noticed the credits, everyone was listed as John or Jane Smith. That's because Scientologists are well-known for suing anyone who pokes fun of them even the smallest bit, and so crediting everyone as John and Janes Smith was the writers' way of protecting everyone. And after this episode aired, Scientologists had the writers investigated to try and find anything they could incriminate them with, but ended up finding nothing they could use, stating that they were just "two ordinary guys". Third, the voice actor for Chef, who was a Scientologist, was unfortunately pressured into leaving the show because of this episode, and even his church sent the writers' notice quitting for him on his behalf. Watch the episode The Return Of Chef for the writers', um... response to them doing this.

While Scientologists did send the message to have him quit, he actually didn't have any problems with the episode itself since he knew Matt and Trey really well. Unfortunately around the time the episode was releasing was also when his health was greatly declining. He likely would have left on his own later than when he was forced to with the health issues in mind.

I once actually convinced my Sunday school teacher to play the video of the guy explaining Scientology to the class. Probably the first time South Park was played in a church

This is pretty accurate about SCIENTOLOGY. But you have to pay for a lot of courses from them before they drop the alien story on you.

The whole Xenu story is actual Scientology lore but they don't reveal any of this to you until you reach OT Level III which takes many years of dedication and six-figures of your money. Otherwise, the vast majority of Scientologists won't know what you're talking about, and the ones who do know what you're talking about are basically told to pretend they have no idea. Big coincidence, by the way, the founder of Scientology, L. Ron Hubbard, was a shitty pulp science fiction author, but I'm sure that had nothing to do with his terribly written story about Xenu the galactic ruler and alien souls. Tom Cruise also threatened Viacom, which owns Comedy Central and Paramount, to not rerun this episode of South Park or he'd pull out doing promotion for Mission Impossible 3, and Comedy Central indeed didn't rerun it for a while. If you're interested, you should definitely read about L. Ron Hubbard who was basically a sociopath... it's certainly a rabbit hole but an interesting one.

Ok, so they called their religion a lie and a scam, heavily implied the homosexuality of prominent members and then straight up looked at the “camera” and dared them to sue. Sure they changed the names of everyone in the credits to John and Jane Smith, but the balls on Matt and Trey are massive

Fun facts are this show was pretty much banned on Comedy Central cause Scientology got real pissed about it and also the guy who voiced chef left the show cause he was a Scientologist, they kinda used that to do the story for chefs last episode

They were protecting the writers since Scientology has what they call a “Fair Game” policy that includes things like litigation, stalking, and (in some cases) assassination. As ballsy as the Conifer Boys are, I’m sure they don’t want shit like that in their consciences.

Yeah there was a video of either a Scientologist or ex Scientologist talking about this episode. Basically he said that there were slight differences in the story but it’s pretty spot on. He was saying the personality test is real to try to convince people to come spend money. He was basically saying the biggest difference is a lot of the crazy shit they say requires you’ve been with them a long time and spent thousands of dollars at the church, which at that time you wouldn’t want to denounce something you invested so much money into. Prob wouldn’t be a good reaction video as it’s already a reaction lol, but if you feel like watching on your own it’s pretty worth it tbh. South Park is crazy when they talk about concepts like this because you think it’s a stupid cartoon but they’re very on point lmao

You know somethings crazy when even South Park has to tell you they didnt make it up.

I drive my mom to work sometimes. She works in Clearwater, FL, ONE block away from the big scientologist block. It's a two lane road but all of them fucking wear the same thing, don't drive cars or ride bikes, and make it a nightmare to try and turn left or right. They travel in packs usually, and you'd think they would all kinda get to where they're going in the morning and be done, then leave after work, but no, for 12 hours a day I've got to dodge scientologists up and down that road.

The funny part is that’s exactly what they do in Scientology. 😂

_oh ma gawd_ my favorite john travolta depiction

You missed the last joke. Every male on the credits is called as "John Smith" to avoid being sued.

4:39 “No way they believe that bro” Sir, have you met Xenu before? Edit: I see you immediately got the “trapped in the closet” joke, when did you catch on to “fudge packer”?😂

in an interview or a commentary on this episode, they said that originally they werent going to put "this is what scientologists actually believe" but then they realized that the story sounded too ridiculous ( ...... ) so in order to show the audience , they put that in because they thought people would think its just a crazy south park story lol

Bro all that alien stuff is completely what they believe

I cam confirm this is EXACTLY what Scientology Believes

Fat Butt & Pancake Head = Jennifer Lopez episode

Your reactions are always funny asf always nice to see another southpark upload

Believe it or not but yes that is what scientologists actually believe

You missed the end everybody's names in the credit with John Smith and Jane Smith So that it wasn't made by anybody and they can't get sued, Obviously I don't know if it works like that but that's the joke anyway , the credits might as well have read anonymous, who knows maybe it was depressed alien ghosts who made this episode you can't prove it wasn't

This is actual Scientology doctrine, but Scientologists don't learn about it until they reach OT IIII, which requires many years and hundreds of thousands of dollars. Scientologists are actually taught that if they hear any of this material before they reach OT III. So it's technically true that Scientologists believe this, but most Scientologists don't know that they believe it. The equivalent would be if it were hidden from Catholics that it's church doctrine that the bread literally becomes the body of Jesus unless they've signed their retirement accounts over to the pope.

i love how the end is basically like south park saying "come at me".

"And so I pull out my guuunnn! Tell me why won't Tom Cruise come out the closet or I'ma shoot someoooone!"

They believe that L. Ron Hubbard was the reincarnation of Buddha and he had to come back because when buddha attained enlightenment he thought it was eternal but it ended up being temporary so he had to come back to obtain eternal enlightenment. That's actually true lol

The R Kelly is spot on

I was walking around San Jose, near the university library, and I think a Scientologist was giving out invitations to something. I knew nothing about Scientology at the time but threw the invitation away when I was out of this guy's sight.

I don’t know if people realize that not only do they make fun of Scientology but they are also calling Tom Cruise, R Kelly, and John Travolta gay. I’m sure that didn’t go over well either.

I highly suggest you check out season 11 ep 17 of American Dad, where they parody R. kelly's song. or just react to trapped in a locker. its hard to believe a 52 year old white guy sang the parody song that good.

What's sad is that they actually believe all this. They really believe we were brought here from another planet.

Yep that’s what they believe frfr😂

Only higher-level scientologists believe the Xenu storyline, because they're the only ones aware of it. As a member of scientology, you're required to pay to move up levels (the audit counseling mentioned in the episode), and at every level you learn something more about scientology. I think you don't start hearing the alien stories until like OT7. If you want you can watch the video clip where Leah Remini talks about this, how they started telling her about the alien stories and she started realizing everything was bullshit, and that's why she left.

This when the Scintologist send ther investigation to spy Trey Parker and Matt Stone what plan to make more fun of them. When the some hours later to investigate they got pretty frustrated when they fond nothing and leave.
