Australia loves your religion. Except if it starts with “Scien” and ends with”tology”
Tom Cruise might want to cross Australia off his list of vacation destinations.
The federal government’s mental-health spokesman has blasted an anti-psychiatry exhibit sponsored by an offshoot of Scientology as “incredibly irresponsible.” The exhibition, operated by the Citizens Commission on Human Rights, slams psychiatric practices and claims that psychiatry is an “industry of death. It’s ill-informed and it’s dangerous to undermine a highly respected and important part of the medical profession,” Christopher Pyne, Australia’s parliamentary secretary for health with special responsibilities for mental health told Australia’s Daily Telegraph. “Patients who see a psychiatrist shouldn’t have their faith in psychiatry shaken by crackpot claims.”
How batshit-crazy must an “offshoot” of Scientology be? That’s like someone starting a more “extreme” version of Nazism.
I’ve always wanted to start an “offshoot” of something–even if it’s just a little league baseball team or something. We could be the rough and tumble “offshoot” that everyone fears and no one wants to play. Men want to be us and women want to be with us. Now that I think about it, that would make a pretty kick ass movie-especially if the Rock played my part. Don’t kid yourself folks, that has Oscar written all over it.
