What link does the controversial religious group the Church of Scientology have with Trinity College's Long Room? 

Nothing apparently. 

But that didn't stop a shockingly similar room to Trinity's world renowned library appearing in an advertisement for the religious group, airing at prime-time to millions during the Superbowl 50 on Sunday. 

The image, which appears around twenty seconds into the glossy ad, shows a striking resemblance to the Dublin library, complete with two-level 18th century book cases and marble statues. 

"The Long Room is a massive part of College's identity and is often featured on viral lists of the world's best or most beautiful libraries," said Trinity News. 

"It's not impossible that a producer somewhere saw an un-attributed image of the library and decided to mould it to fit the aesthetic of the video."

A spokesperson for the famous university issued a statement confirming that the college had not given permission for any images of the library to be used commercially. 

"The image used in the advertisement for the Church of Scientology bears a strong resemblance to the 18th century library. 

"No permission was granted by Trinity College Dublin for its usage and it does not endorse it in this form of promotion. Contact is being made with the Church of Scientology on the matter."

Scientology, a controversial and powerful religious group with property all over the world, remains a constant source of intrigue and bewilderment for many. 

Famous members of the church include Tom Cruise, John Travolta and Laura Prepon.
