I have absolutely no evidence of this, but it seems to me that Travolta isn't a Cruise--someone who screams Scientology from the rooftops or imposes its systems on his film sets. He's pretty quiet about it, particularly in recent years. I wonder, with no evidence to back it up, if perhaps Travolta's continued involvement in Scientology is because of threats and blackmail from its higher-ups, who no doubt have a huge cache of private information on Travolta from the decades of auditing. Maybe, just maybe, Travolta would love to come out and get out (of Scientology), but he's trapped. I mean, it's not like he's particularly careful about his involvements it or even particularly protective of the fact.
Maybe Carrie Fisher's way of "outing" him was actually more of a way to release that Scientology pressure valve: if the information is out there from someone other than John, Scientology has less of a stranglehold on his life. He seems like a really genuine, nice, sensitive fellow, universally liked. As such, I can only hope that this was a favor.
I find this an interesting take on the situation....
