You meant the article is written by Tom Cruise? Or the discipline itself is written by Tom Cruise?

Either I'm getting sloppy or you just emerged from primordial soup.

My cynical (joking) reference was in regards to Tom Cruise's interview with Matt Lauer in which he decried all psycotic drugs are evil. "You don't know about these things, Matt. I do!" - Cruise claiming his expertise in cures for depression, psychosis, etc.

Tom Cruise's messiah - the not much lamented L.R. Hubbard was an anti psychology zealot.

One need not be an anti psychology zealot to point out that it is not science.

I made the mistake of reading some of Hubbard's sci fi - before I knew he was a cult leader - and he did have an interesting point.

An alien (who looked and acted human) on Earth decided that a psychologist had more power than the police.

The police can arrest you, but you get a trial. In prison they cannot drug you, and you have a defined sentence.

A psychologist can imprison a person based upon saying that person is crazy, they can drug them with whatever they want, and hold them until they decide they are better.

A rather interesting (and scary) proposition - especially if you are a borderline psycho like Hubbard!
