[QUOTE="Sara PA, post: 71435, member: 1498"] I read that comment about him not liking Scientology because his wife use to be a member as an indication he was quite familiar with the organization and that he and his wife had rejected it. If you doubt the Wiki article, check out the references listed at the bottom. The paragraph I posted had four or five footnotes which I deleted when I posted it. But I guess those who buy the conspiracy theory that all who are "anti medications" are Scientologist will just claim that Breggin is lying about being a Scientologist for some reason or the other. If you aren't a conspiracy theorist, perhaps his own words in a PBS [URL='http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/medicating/interviews/breggin.html']Frontline[/URL] interview will be a sufficiently reliable source. ... I have nothing to do with Scientology. For approximately 25 years, I have conducted reform work with nothing to do with Scientology. There is no issue whatsoever about me and Scientology. I'm the editor-in-chief of a journal with 40 professional members on it. I'm director of a center with 200 professional people on the advisory council and 1,000 general members. I have taught at Harvard and Johns Hopkins and George Mason. I have nothing to do with Scientology. It's a drug company PR campaign. ... I have the letters. If I had known you were going to go to this level of journalism, I would have brought the letters along where Eli Lilly tries to link people like me to Scientology. My wife was a Scientologist, and is now so strongly anti-Scientology, that if I even took a phone call from a Scientologist, she'd be on my back. ... I don't want to take on the Scientologists. I've got enough trouble taking on psychiatry. ...</div></div> ETA: The Frontline interview is pretty good. Breggin does a good job of explaining his point of view. [/QUOTE]
