In Scientology they believe in an intergalactic overlord, Xenu, who killed off half of an overpopulated distant planet and took their “theetans” otherwise known as souls and froze them to be taken. When Xenu had the souls other intergalactic overlords, such as he, were chasing him, because he was too powerful. He found an abandoned planet that is now earth, and he took all of those souls and jammed them into a volcano and fled. The other unnamed overlords eventually caught him and trapped him on an unknown planet, and is still alive and imprisoned today.



In the Muslim religion of Islam, they believe their religion has been around since before the time of time. Also Muhammad is not the founder of Islam but the most recent prophet to receive the word of god. According to most Muslim beliefs, the world was created by one god who molded not only our planet, but everything on, in, and around this universe. He sent his angels down to this empty planet and asked his angels to bring back 7 different colors of soil in which he molded mankind from.

Comparison

Both of these religions may have many differences between them but there are some hidden similarities. They both believe in a single higher being as many religions do. Not as obvious is they both believe the religion has been around since before time. ith Scientology they believe that there were already planets and galactic overlords, while with Islam there was nothing until God decided to create everything we know today. One more thing they have in common is they both believe "In contrast, the Church of Scientology teaches in its secret Class 8 Auditor's [ministerial] class that, like Islam, Christianity is the result of an evil memory "implant" designed to control people."
