And now, another episode of...

We'll just call this TV show "One of the Greatest Things I Have Ever Seen," (capitalized because it is my imaginary television show that I just thought up three seconds ago) and on today's episode, I am going to provide you with a video that was posted on YouTube on February 15, 2007.

Why Did All the Dinosaurs Die? Because of Psychiatry, That's Why!

Also, nothing in this article has been cited as fact or should be taken that way. In this country, everyone is entitled to their own opinion: and this is mine, be it true or not.

Why did L. Ron Hubbard, founder of the psychotic cult known as Scientology, believe that psychiatrists were evil and harmful? Do you really want to know? Because he himself was crazy.

Or was he? L. Ron Hubbard has been quoted repeatedly as saying that the best way to make money is to start a religion. I don’t think L. Ron was stupid or crazy. He was a brilliant man. You see, he never believed what he preached. If you don’t seem to believe what you say, why the hell would others? Hubbard realized that by starting his religion, he could make millions and become more famous than he may have already been. He succeeded.

Now comes the question of: why no psychiatric help? Hubbard knew that the story of Xenu, which most of you are already familiar with by now, was completely unbelievable, yet, making it part of a religion, people would believe it anyway. When the story of Xenu had been leaked, Hubbard had already known the damage that would ensue upon his religion. His followers would be called “crazy”—perhaps even insane. And they were.

With this charge of insanity, the followers would either feel the need for psychiatric help or others would tell them to seek it, which would lead to the consequent realization of reality and the members would drop the church, which meant no more money for Hubbard. Thusly came the claim that psychiatrists are evil and cruel and the drugs prescribed were deadly and cruel. Now, in my opinion, psychiatric drugs are a scary thing and could potentially be damaging to the body and dangerous. However, to claim that psychiatric help beyond drugs is evil, I would have to be insane.

L. Ron Hubbard was not quite a genius, but he was clever. Whenever someone has religion under their wings, they are willing to believe whatever is taught. L. Ron knew ahead of time that his stories were too damn farfetched for the masses, so he prepared himself, and very well might I add. So is Hubbard himself really crazy? Well… maybe just a little.

Scientology's stance on psychiatry gets a 0 out of 1.
