Point of order:
Just because a person is an actor doesn't mean that he is dumb.
Not established by anything in evidence.

psychiatry is a pseudo-science
But scientology is as well established in fact as physics, right?

Neurology is a science, but psychiatry is not. Neurology studies the physical structure of the brain, while psychiatry purports to study the intangible products of that physical brain, such as thought, imagination and behavior. These are things that cannot be measured or weighed or, with the exception of behavior, even observed.
The exact same statements apply to scientology.

So Cruise was quite correct in admonishing NBC's Matt Lauer to read a history of psychiatry and to study the drug Ritalin before he superficially mouths off about their alleged benefits based on nothing more than anecdotal evidence.
As a matter of fact, it appears a large number of scientific studies have been done on the drug.

Now I'm not saying Ritalin should be handed out to kiddies like candy. I am saying maybe Cruise ought to keep his mouth shut about matter in which knows little or nothing, particularly considering the hostile beliefs inspired by his own idiotic religious beliefs.
