Jerry Seinfeld is setting the record straight.
The famous comedian recently paid a visit to Marc Maron's podcast "WTF," where he addressed rumors that he once was a Scientologist.
According to Uproxx, rumors of Seinfeld, 66, belonging to the religion have surrounded him since the 1990s, when fellow comedian Bobcat Goldthwait accused him of participating in the religion.
While Seinfeld said he was never directly a member of the church, he did dabble in it decades ago.

Seinfeld noted that he appreciated the religion's "emphasis on ethical behavior," but found no interest in "avoiding negative people," as Maron, 56, put it.
