A little more about my Tom Cruise rant

I did some research about the Church of Scientology after finding out Tom Crusie was a devote member of. No wonder he denounces psychiatry since it is the Church's no.1 enemy. I stumbled upon this great site which tries to inform the public about the dangers of this Church, and that it posts many many secret documents ( including many written by hand from L.Ron Hubbard himself).

All I can say is that this religion/philosophy is just as dangerous as it claims psychology and psychiatry to be.

What a load of sci-fi crap. And off course there is some sort of a deal between the church and all these stupid celebs that are members.

Anyway, yes psychology/psychiatry has a long ways to go before it solves and solidifies any claims. However to say that psychiatry/psychology is a pseudo science is quite effrontery.

All sciences started out as hypotheses, and went through an abudant amount of trial and error before any kind of fact could be declared. This is what is going on with these Anti-depressants. There are side-effects which can be very bad for some and we truly do not know if they can cause some permanent changes. However this is the price you have to pay for science. Without mistakes there can be no progress. Yes, I understand that the pharmaceutical companies make big $$$ of these drugs and probably want people to be depressed, anxious, etc however to give such a label to all the millions of psychologists, researchers who are doing all this work just because of the few big drug companies is an insult. Im sure that there are plenty of researchers/psychologists who really are passionate about there work and want to make a difference.

There are many theories in astronomy and many facts that need to be sought out, yet we do not dare to call it a pseudo-science.

You need to start somewhere and starting with chemical imbalances starts like a good starting point,

As I have a bellyfull of chemo and a split in my skull, dare I say......yes, I dare.

I enjoy reading that we all dismiss Scientology (as I do) as ridiculous, dangerous, poppy-cock. But, er, just change a few choice word and you get this......

"In Christian doctrine, Jesus is a galactic ruler who, 2005 years ago, walked around performing miracles and converted billlions of people on earth, stacked unbelievers around pyres, and set them on fire. Their souls then went to somewhere called 'hell', joined up with a fallen angel called 'Satan' and continue to cause people problems today. These events are known to Christians as Sin. The story of Jesus is part of a much wider range of Christian beliefs in an loving god, collectively described by hundreds of different people who never knew, saw, or heard of Jesus."

Woof.
Mmmmmmmm....flotsam. Slobber. It's what keeps the world turning.
So lets leave it at that.
No, please don't - continue bickering.
I think they have. I've noticed some subtle changes as well, but then again - I may be hallucinating as well. Folie a deux perhaps Sojourner.
