Dr. Wiseman: He also has nothing to say about pain. And pain is what brings more people to see doctors—medical doctors, family physicians, specialists—than any other symptom or any other problem.

Pain is not in itself a diagnosis, and Szasz would say, "Well pain, you know, you can't scan it, you can't really measure it, you can't x-ray, it, you can't see, you know, tissue pathology that is pain itself, so pain's not an illness, pain's not a disease." He may want to say that, but does that mean that it's not medically important, or that it's not important for doctors of all types to want to work with patients with pain and to treat that condition or treat that problem?

Whether you call it an illness or a disease or not makes no difference, and I would challenge Szasz in asking him, "Have you ever seen a migraine? What is the tissue pathology of a migraine? What is the scan of a migraine? How do you know that someone is having a migraine?"

Well, because they tell him. Because they say, "My head hurts. Because I feel sick. Because I just vomited. Because there's a light that goes across my visual field."

Szasz can't see any of that objectively. But he doesn't go around, and the CCHR doesn't go around, and Scientology doesn't go around saying that a neurologist is a pseudo scientist because he or she makes a large part of their living treating people with migraines.

Szasz doesn't talk about all of the "functional" conditions that have basically become very, very common in society. He doesn't talk about fibromyalgia which affects two to four per cent of the population. He doesn't talk about chronic fatigue syndrome, he doesn't talk about interstitial cystitis, the sort of chronic inflammatory-type symptoms in the bladder. He doesn't talk about irritable bowel syndrome. All of these problems do not have any sort of demonstrable tissue pathology. All of these problems, according to Szasz, are myths, and are problems in living, that are simple sort of symptoms that people perhaps are choosing, or that they represent something, or that, you know, they're not sort of real medical problems.

But yet Szasz and Scientology does not accuse rheumatologists of being pseudo doctors because they treat fibromyalgia. He doesn't say that a urologist is a pseudo doctor because that urologist treats interstitial cystitis. And he doesn't say the same thing about gastroenterologists, who make a large portion of their living scoping people with irritable bowel symptoms. He doesn't say that. Psychiatry is the only one that is singled out, and I think that is inappropriate.

This is modern, integrated medicine. Szasz remains out of touch and out of date. And what he ultimately does is he argues from ignorance. And this is actually called the argument from ignorance, which is if we don't know something, if we are yet to discover something, if the state of our knowledge is not quite where we can see a specific marker for depression on a functional MRI scan, if we cannot see a specific genetic lesion in schizophrenia, that somehow that means there aren't any, or there won't be any or there can't be any, and that these conditions don't have any physiological basis. It's an argument from ignorance.

And unfortunately, the central nervous system is by far the most complex part of the body and probably the most complex aspect of the entire known universe.

YouTube - Dr. Steve Wiseman Investigates Thomas Szasz Scientology [5/6]

Informal transcript of http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VdAX7rdhB6w, Dr. Stephen Wiseman wrote:

Dr. Wiseman: We've talked a little bit so far about Dr. Thomas Szasz being wrong, and about him being essentially out of date. We haven't talked about Dr. Thomas Szasz's hypocrisy, however, and that, in my opinion, is probably the most egregious issue against him that is coming up as we look at this topic.

To review, Szasz is a man who has been writing for fifty years from a libertarian perspective, arguing for self-determination and against state interference in matters such as behavioral control.

Szasz rejects, and has always rejected, state authority to detain or hospitalize and treat a person against his or her will. Szasz has always rejected psychiatry's apparent role in making this happen by labeling questionable behaviors as an illness, hence justifying state interference and control. And Szasz has also rejected any provision of medical or psychiatric treatment without full, informed consent, and thereby free choice by the recipient. So we've reviewed that.

Szasz also, in addition to this, has been a founding director of the Citizens Commission on Human Rights since 1969. He's allowed himself to receive awards and recognition from the CCHR over the years. He has allowed his arguments and his writings to serve as the intellectual foundation for the CCHR's and Scientology's war against psychiatry. He's encouraged that.

About this, he's merely stated in public that he is not a Scientologist, and as an atheist he's in support of any religion which opposes the same aspects of psychiatry that he opposes himself.

Dr. Thomas Szasz is the embodiment of the concept of "The enemy of my enemy is my friend." My question is, "So how is this so bad?" Let's explore that. I want to talk about what in Scientology is called the "Introspection Rundown."

In the mid-1970s, L. Ron Hubbard announced that he had "made a technical breakthrough which possibly ranks with the major discoveries of the twentieth century." Another bit of Hubbard's trademark modesty.

He was describing essentially a process by which to handle a psychotic break. He noted that the psychotic break, or someone developing acute psychotic symptoms such as delusions or hallucinations or gross disturbance in perception, behavior, was the last of the unsolvable conditions that can trap a person. And thanks to his Introspection Rundown, "The last reason to have psychiatry around is gone."

So to clarify, by the 1970s, L. Ron Hubbard is proposing a specific treatment protocol for a potentially dangerous condition usually managed by specialist-level physicians, and in a hospital. In his bulletin of January 23rd, 1974, Hubbard told his followers, "You have in your hands the tool to take over mental therapy in full." Frightening.

The essence of the Introspection Rundown is isolation and destimulation. Essentially, the person who is undergoing the IR has his or her case run by a case supervisor, and the protocol is that nobody else should have access or contact with the person involved. The individual stays isolated and silent except for the frequent auditing sessions that he or she has with the case supervisor. [1]

Given that it's Scientology, there's likely some nutritional aspects to this and likely they throw some high doses of vitamins at the person, but there would be no traditional psychiatric medications offered to an individual on the Introspection Rundown under any circumstance.

Where this becomes interesting to our story, is that the key to the Introspection Rundown is that it is the case supervisor who decides when to end this period of enforced isolation. That is, the psychotic person undergoing the IR loses his or her right under Scientology protocol to choose when to leave that isolation room and to choose the nature of the treatment that he or she gets on an ongoing basis.

This is not some kind of esoteric point. It's entirely obvious from all of the bulletins that Hubbard produced, bulletins that are still in force in Scientology. And we can see this very clearly.

To determine the end point of someone's enforced isolation in the IR, the supervisor in charge has to, according to Hubbard and according to Scientology protocol, indirectly communicate with that person to find out whether they are capable of taking responsibility at this point or not. And that's, you know the example they give in the Introspection Rundown is using a note. And according to the IR document, the note might be something like, "'Dear Joe, What can you guarantee me if you are let out of isolation?' If Joes answer shows continued irresponsibility, the supervisor must write back something along the lines of, 'Dear Joe, I'm sorry but it's no go on coming out of isolation yet. Your actions threaten the survival of hundreds of people indirectly.'"

The IR goes on to state, "When it is obvious the person is out of his psychosis and up to the responsibility of living with others, his isolation is ended."

And these words, as I have just mentioned, are all contained within the Technical Bulletins of Scientology, Volume 10 from 1991. These are still in force and in play in Scientology.

Elsewhere in these protocols, supporting the Introspection Rundown, it is stated, "With someone in a psychotic break, it is necessary to isolate the person for him to destimulate and to protect him and others from possible damage. There comes a point where the case supervisor must decide to release the person from isolation." The case supervisor release the person from isolation. "To do this the case supervisor must know that the person can take responsibility for his actions as regards others as well as towards himself."

So thinking about what Szasz says, this is becoming very interesting.

The current consent form used in Scientology has a lot to do with the Introspection Rundown, and it's kind of a blanket consent form, but it specifically talks about the protocols of the Introspection Rundown and the specifics, just because of these very thorny control and responsibility and coercion issues.

So what I'm talking about is what's called "Church of Scientology Flag Service Organization (hereinafter referred to as "the Church") Agreement and General Release Regarding Spiritual Assistance." [2] Scientology actually calls the Introspection Rundown "an intensive rigorous religious service," which is interesting because it's designed specifically for people who are psychotic, which is a psychiatric or a medical condition.

9:04 (end of Part 5)

[1] I think Dr. Wiseman misspoke here. Although the person in isolation is supposed to communicate with the C/S with notes (per HCOB 20 February 1974R Introspection RD Additional Steps), the auditing steps of the IRD are done by an auditor, who is under the direction of the C/S.

Informal transcript of http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5xRCHtxAo-0, Dr. Stephen Wiseman wrote:

In the consent form, it explicitly states, "The Case Supervisor will determine the time period in which I will remain isolated, according to the beliefs and practices of the Scientology religion. I further specifically acknowledge that the duration of any such isolation is uncertain, determined only by my spiritual condition, but that such duration will be completely at the discretion of the Case Supervisor."

So with the Introspection Rundown, looking at this material, we have an acknowledgement that those who are suffering from psychotic symptoms may pose a direct or indirect threat to themselves or to others, that such a person must be isolated and managed for his own and for others' protection, that when that person is isolated and undergoing the IR he or she does not have a choice to continue with the treatment or not. Its nature and duration, once started, is solely at the discretion of the Case Supervisor.

The consent form for the IR is presented and signed before anyone actually is psychotic. This is something that is signed early on. It is not something that someone who needs to do an IR like this minute, or they're talking about psychotic symptoms, you know, yesterday or today, will sign it. This is something that is done ahead of time. So it's basically a blanket consent for treatment or for management of a condition that has not yet arisen.

So basically by signing it, you are signing away your rights ahead of time, when the nature of such a decision or the consequences of such a decision is far more difficult to appreciate.

And this consent form that is used does not come close to providing informed consent. Nowhere on that form does it say, for example, that most other people in society, most other groups in society, most other professional organizations in society, see a psychotic break as a medical or a psychiatric problem or emergency.

So, you're not informed that while some people see it as a spiritual issue, other people see it as a medical issue. There's no discussion of the risks of untreated psychosis or the natural progression of an untreated or a poorly treated psychotic break.

There's no discussion of the medical or the psychiatric options versus the Introspection Rundown options. So that's not informed consent that you can compare choices. And there's also no discussion of the side effects or potential side effects of the Introspection Rundown protocol, which again may include isolation, may include high doses of vitamins, may include all sorts of potentially medically destabilizing things happening.

So we would, getting back to Dr. Szasz, we would challenge Dr. Thomas Szasz right now to identify any meaningful way that the Introspection Rundown of Scientology differs morally from traditional coercive psychiatric practice. We would ask him why he has given his support, legitimacy and sustenance to this organization for over forty years when this policy has been on the book, this IR policy has been on the books and has been very publicly practiced by Scientology for many, many years.

We finally call on Dr. Szasz, before his death, to renounce Scientology institutional practices, including the IR, that are obviously and grossly contradictory to the very core, the very essence, of Szasz's own beliefs and intellectual efforts for the past seventy years.

He cannot, he cannot believe what he believes and not denounce Scientology for the exact same reasons as he has denounced psychiatry.

Wrapping this conversation up, the issue of the Introspection Rundown is not some theoretical or esoteric concept. The consent form that I've quoted from, that we've been talking about, has actually been dubbed by some as "the Lisa Clause." And this is named after Lisa McPherson, who was a young Scientologist who died in 1995 after undergoing the Introspection Rundown through Scientology in Clearwater, Florida for seventeen days. At the time of her death, Lisa was gaunt, bruised, unkempt, dehydrated and septic. She apparently later succumbed to a pulmonary embolism, or a blood clot, in her lungs. The civil case in Lisa's death was only settled in 2004, nearly a decade after she passed away. This is a real issue.

There are other reports that are coming out and other documentation of psychotic symptoms and psychotic breaks and serious psychiatric compromise being "handled" within Scientology, and made grossly worse by Scientology practice. Again I would refer you to My Billion Year Contract [1] by Nancy Many who writes incredibly powerfully of undergoing a period of psychosis within the Church of Scientology, and how that was managed and how she was harmed basically by what these practices were.

I would also point out another small book, but very interesting book, by Aaron Gottfried, and the title of this book is The Psychiatrist Who Cured the Scientologist [2]. And this is again Mr. Gottfried's descent into bipolar mood disorder, within the context of his being managed and treated and supervised by Scientology. Again it's a very, very distressing and disturbing thing to read. And I would encourage people to look at that.

Transcript of Dr. Wiseman's talk on CCHR (Part 1)

YouTube - Dr. Steve Wiseman Takes on CCHR Scientology [1/2]

Informal transcript of http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QBrLmUZIkVU, Dr. Stephen Wiseman wrote:

0:00

I want to talk in some detail about Citizen's Commission on Human Rights or the CCHR. The CCHR was created in 1969, founded by the Church of Scientology and by famous renegade psychiatrist Dr. Thomas Szasz.

The purpose of its founding was basically to create a legitimate front in the Scientologists' war against psychiatry. Over the years, the CCHR has often downplayed or disavowed any connection to Scientology. It does that to increase its acceptability and to have its messages seen as rational and scientific, as opposed to religious and opposed to simply being a part of the Church of Scientology.

However, I want to challenge that. From day one, most or many of the senior leadership of the CCHR have been Scientologists. So, yes the CCHR is open to anyone of any type of religious persuasion, but the leadership and the majority of the participants are and always have been Scientologists.

The CCHR has continued from day one to be sponsored and financially supported by Scientology, including the International Association of Scientologists.

And these connections, you know the staffing connections, the people connections, the financial connections, become a lot more clear when we examine some of the internal CCHR and internal Scientology sources, as opposed to what the CCHR says on the outside for the public.

Here, for example, is a paper from 1978, Citizens Commission on Human Rights. This is a CCHR paper for internal distribution. It says, "If you were a Scientologist, your future track may be in danger." It goes on to say that -- they are talking about suppressive groups -- "and we are well aware of exactly who on this planet has the technology to expose and eliminate them. And those Suppressive Persons know exactly what technology is the most deadly now available on this planet to harm a thetan."

So listen to that. We're talking about Scientology jargon, we're talking about using the word "suppressive", we're also talking about using the word "thetan", we're talking about "technology"; these are all Scientology words explicitly within the CCHR document. It's very interesting.

There's also further material, and here's another example. This is the magazine of the International Association of Scientologists, Impact Magazine, 24th Annual Anniversary, Issue 119.

And this is much more modern. It's a few years old. And in this magazine, which is distributed to Scientologists internally, it talks about their new plan for psychiatry: "Global Vaporization." And this is what it says, very casual, it says:

"This is Psychiatry: Global Vaporization. And it's funded by grants from the IAS" -- the International Association of Scientologists. "It is how CCHR is ripping the veil off psych drug fraud, psych drug deaths and obscene psychiatric profits, and is bringing an end to the psychiatric horror for millions."

So again, there's this casual interchangibility, this... "Yes, it's an IAS-sponsored thing, the CCHR is doing it." This is a very well-integrated situation here.

One of the things that the CCHR does, is it capitalizes deliberately on its name, "human rights." And the rhetoric that this organization puts out pertaining to human rights is really quite staggering.

From the CCHR International website, the current President of the CCHR says, and I quote, "Our work aligns with the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights, which reads in part, 'No one shall be subjected to torture or to cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment.'"

It says, "All are equal before the law and are entitled, without any discrimination, to equal protection of the law."

And it goes on to say, "Parents have a prior right to choose the kind of education that shall be given to their children."

Now what's interesting is, coming along and reading this, one would think, "This is a human rights organization. These people are very serious when it comes to international human rights."

But in every one of those things I just mentioned, if you understand the beliefs that Scientology and CCHR have about psychiatry specifically, you'll see that these words, from their point of view, are absolutely anti-psychiatry, and justify the attacking of psychiatry.

So the United Nations talks about people not being subjected to torture or to cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment. And we can all imagine around the world what that might look like in certain countries, and for certain groups of people. For the CCHR, their belief is that modern, safe, well-regulated, appropriate psychiatric practice in every big city, in every hospital, in every psychiatrist's office around North America is actually "torture or cruel and inhuman or degrading treatment."

So their definition of psychiatry and what psychiatry is, actually in their mind filters in to this human rights set-up that they have.

So, we read it and we think, "Wow, that's impressive. It's a human rights organization."

But from their point of view, they are taking the language, they're taking the rhetoric of human rights, and they're twisting it to further substantiate, to further justify their completely off-base opinions and beliefs regarding psychiatry.

So to recap a little bit, the CCHR is not about human rights. The CCHR has taken the language of human rights, and it uses it to become more legitimate in the eyes of casual observers, and it uses it to justify its own efforts to destroy psychiatry.

And it's actually the destruction of psychiatry, which we've talked about, in Scientology and now in the CCHR, that is ultimately their goal.

I want to read a little bit from a very interesting document that comes from the Citizens Commission on Human Rights. It's an International Executive Directive, dated November 28th, 1989. And this is something that sort of sets up a sense of what their approach, and what their... what the things that are important to the CCHR really are. And this is a document that talks about what they call "Psych Losses," which is... Basically, they say, "This new expanded Psych Losses stat opens the door to really cleaning up the field of mental healing, putting criminal psychs behind bars and getting their destructive practices outlawed. So it's basically not about human rights, it's about destroying psychiatry.

And "Psych Losses" is a fascinating, fascinating document. It's basically kind of a participation program, or a "frequent flyer" program, or a points or loyalty... consumer loyalty program, that gives CCHR members and Scientologists particular points or particular rewards for certain behaviors that damage or destroy psychiatry.

So, for example, in here on page 3, when it comes to publishing books; it says, "You get ten points per page of material which exposes rotten spots in the field of mental healing, per 100,000 printing. Example: There have been several books published in the last year which have had chapters containing data about psychs, supplied by the CCHR. If one of these had ten pages of anti-psych materials, and the first printing was 50,000 copies, that would be 50 points. If the book was made successful, and then went into a second printing of 100,000 copies, that would be an additional 100 points."

...[If the book was made successful, and] then went into a second printing of 100,000 copies, that would be an additional 100 points.

There are further points for the distribution of information letters, pamphlets and broadsheets. It says, "These are publications exposing the crimes and abuses in the field of mental health, produced by CCHR groups, which are then distributed broadly to the public, either by handouts or by mail, etc. One point per page per 100,000 distributed."

So you can start adding up your points!

CCHR often approaches people that possibly have had some difficult experiences within the field of mental health, possibly have been harmed or victimized by whomever or whatever, people that are frustrated, people that are hurting. The idea is to get them to talk about these experiences and to start a process against psychiatry.

So we have, for example, part of "Psych Losses" on page 4. You get points for "A signed and witnessed written statement or signed affidavit from the person telling his story (the victim himself or the surviving relative or guardian of someone killed, ruined or otherwise abused by a psych or other member of the field of mental health, or by a psych organization: 25 points."

Listen to this language. It's also true that they're not just going after psychiatrists. We're talking about psychiatric nurses, psychiatric administrators, or any type of worker within a mental health or a psychiatric organization.

So they go after people that they feel possibly have had a difficult experience. And they try to convince them to come forward and try to convince them, in a sense, to be a victim.

It gets better. And we're getting into the big point hauls, now. Here we go: "An official indictment with formal criminal charges against a psych or a member of a psych organization or group or official by a government or police agency, based on a criminal complaint filed through the actions of a CCHR group. For each person charged with at least one felony charge: 1000 points. "

"Criminal psych or mental health field rotten spot organization or official found guilty of a criminal charge: 5000 points."

"Bonus: For each additional charge found guilty of: 1250 points."

And here's a neat one: For "Psych or mental health field rotten spot organization official sentenced to jail term." For each year of the sentence you get an additional 500 points, if it's your material within the CCHR that has caused this to happen. I feel like we could almost fly to Europe on this.

Finally, it talks about anti-psychiatry legislation. This is the creation of laws or the influence of laws at the level of politics. And the CCHR has done an awful lot of work in attempting to change laws to become very unfriendly to psychiatry. That's the topic of a different discussion.

But here we go on page 7:

"Anti-psych legislation introduced which would limit the power, activities or funding, etc., of a psych or psych groups or activities. International level: 500 points. National level: 250 points. Regional or state level: 100 points, and local level: 50 points."

There's a lot more in here, and I think I've belabored this just to give a sense of what kind of direction the CCHR is truly coming from.
I don't see a lot of human rights in that document that I just talked about.

These are individuals and this is an organization that wishes to destroy psychiatry and wishes to motivate its people to go along with that.

Looking at what we've already seen, the "Psychiatric Global Vaporization" ... here's another picture of "Psychiatric Global Vaporization". (Shows.) Citizens Commission for Human Rights. So we've got a big CCHR brochure, we've got a big logo, and we've got the concept of global vaporization of psychiatry. So again, I don't see a particular interest in human rights in the internal material that these people are talking about.

On New Years Eve 2006, the International Association of Scientogists had a big bash and the Scientology head honcho David Miscavige presented. Again he's talking about a new effort to obliterate psychiatry: "Psychiatry: Global Obliteration." This is something that can be seen on the Internet. It's quite a disturbing speech, particularly because he starts to butt up against some images and some suggestions that are potentially violent.

Miscavige said his new campaign is to "break the dark spell cast across Earth by psychiatry. Our mental health budget adjustment kit, which essentially works like a smart bomb in that it sniffs out psych fuel lines and blows the funding mechanism. And in that way, to put it bluntly, we booby-trap the whole psychiatric eco system."

Miscavige goes on to say, and again talking about Scientology and the CCHR, "While it takes a psych eight years to earn his license, we've already yanked twenty-one in the last four weeks."

Human rights indeed.

RESHAPING THE DESTINY OF EARTH
IAS CAMPAIGN

PSYCHIATRY: GLOBAL VAPORIZATION

Just as it is in our blood to uplift the spirit of Man, so we instinctively work to stop barbarities and mayhem that are the hallmark of psychiatry.

It's a humanitarian mission and it is all about saving lives.

Quote:

[Image caption:]Nearly a thousand Psych Busters unfurled banners and raised placards at the World Psychiatric Congress in Prague, drawing a firestorm of media attention to the inhumane psychiatric drugging of children and other abuses.

[Image banner:] STOP THE PSYCHIATRIC DRUGGING OF CHILDREN!

Within any population there are those who innately aspire to heroism, and from this follows the principal strategy of the Citizens Commission on Human Rights. Anyone witnessing the horrors of psychiatry immediately understands it is a just and noble thing to stop those horrors. To effect exactly that, CCHR coordinates a three-stage campaign. A multimedia barrage of Industry of Death exhibits, mailings and documentary airings inform and create outrage against psychiatric atrocities. People are then invited to acquire their own arsenal of informational materials, and join the ranks of psychiatric investigators, "Psych Busters."

As the ranks of psychiatric investigators expand, an atmosphere is created wherein institutions are closed, psychiatrists' crimes prosecuted and they are legislated out of existence. This is Psychiatry: Global Vaporization and is funded by grants from the IAS. It is how CCHR is ripping the veil off psych-drug fraud, psych-drug deaths and obscene psychiatric profits, and is bringing an end to the psychiatric horror for millions.

AN INFORMATION ONSLAUGHT

Coordinated from CCHR headquarters in Los Angeles, traveling Industry of Death exhibits launched in every continent. With more than 200,000 antidepressant prescriptions regularly being given to children in Australia and New Zealand, exhibits were sent to Auckland, Sydney, Melbourne and Perth. Among the 5,000 visitors were parents of children misdiagnosed as ADHD and teachers from schools where the diagnosis is rampant.

In Japan, exhibits fanned out to seven cities resulting in immediate national news, including exposes of psych infiltration of the courts. When it opened in Quebec, Canada, the verdict from newspapers was, "Psychiatrists are: quacks, liars, schemers, frauds, rip-off artists, opportunists, plotters and child killers."

[Image captions:] CCHR's Industry of Death exhibits traveled 188,000 miles through 239 cities on six continents, enraging and informing. Manchester, Moscow and Quebec (top row) and Mexico, Japan and Milano (bottom row) were some of the destinations visited. In Washington DC moving billboards proclaimed the Exhibit's arrival. Visitors included concerned parents and teachers, government officials and entire classes of university students.

Across the United States, the United Kingdom, Russia and Europe, exhibits opened in major cities and a massive demonstration was held at the World Psychiatric Congress in Prague.

Concurrent was a planet-wide saturation mobilizing, energizing and activating with Industry of Death documentaries. They were seen by millions on TV, while mailings poured out by the hundreds of thousands to legislators and advocacy groups, physicians and personal injury attorneys. In response came a torrent of requests for CCHR materials from colleges, medical clinics, nursing homes and chiefs of police.

Opening the floodgates even wider were airings of CCHR's hard hitting public service announcements alerting people to the dangers and lethal effects of psychiatric drugging. In the wake of 188,000 miles through 239 cities on six continents, and thousands of hours of documentary and public service announcement airplay, there is now a psych buster army that stands more than 100,000 strong.

REMOVING CRIMINALS FROM SOCIETY

In the wake of the information barrage comes the job of bringing criminal psychiatrists to justice, as that is what ultimately prevents them from wreaking their destruction on the unsuspecting populace. This year CCHR investigated, tracked and targeted one count of kidnapping, three counts of first-degree murder, four counts of child pornography, 16 counts of professional negligence and gross incompetence, 24 counts of patient death from physical abuse, 97 counts of sexual assault and indecency and 109 more instances of health care fraud, from insurance fraud to grand larceny. That is just the short list. All totalled, between those who lost their right to practice, lost their jobs or are now incarcerated, 428 psychs and psychiatric personnel are now off the line, just in the last year alone.

THE DOMINO EFFECT

Exposure of psych crimes, with its resultant loss of patients and cutting of appropriations has triggered a wave of psych institution closures.

With their crimes exposed, they can't get funding, can't cheat insurance companies and can't appropriate city funds for no results. As a result, institutions such as the Vineland Horizon Behavioral Health Care Center in Atlantic City, New Jersey is closed and so is Saskatchewan's Victoria Psych Wing. The Rozelle Psych Hospital in Sydney has shut its doors, along with the Addiction Institute of Hungary and the Lakeview Acute Mental Health Unit of Ireland. All told, over the past decade 3,700 psychiatric institutions have been closed across every continent of Earth.

"BUDGET ADJUSTMENT" AND THE LAW

What closes psych institutions likewise causes psychiatric budgets to be slashed and laws to be enacted—or not.

In New South Wales, Australia, psychiatrists wanted to enact legislation for roving health squads to prowl the streets for "unbalanced citizens", fast track commitment procedures and the right to shock and drug. In the wake of CCHR-fueled protests, they got none of the above and instead there is now a permanent ban on deep-sleep "therapy" and all forms of psychosurgery. One wrong answer on a tricky psychiatric questionnaire can land a child on drugs for life. In Italy, CCHR coordinated with Piedmont legislators and 25,000 protesting parents and psych screening is now banned. In the US, proposals to augment, increase and bolster psych drugging programs were derailed in three states. All told, attempts to get sixty psych bills have been killed, resulting in over $134,000,000 out of corrupt psychiatric pockets.

RIPPING AWAY THE "SCIENCE" CURTAIN

The biggest fraud psychs perpetrate is the pretense that they are a science. By turning their own technique back on them, CCHR is leading the way in uncovering this scam by exposing their studies as fraudulent and biased. The US Food and Drug Administration has just issued a warning to psych drug manufacturers that psych drug advertising claims are misleading, fallacious and subject to immediate regulatory action. Two state laws now mandate drug companies disclose how much they pay doctors for research and consultation, and after an investigation was launched by the U.S. Senate, readers of The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal and viewers of major news shows learned of psych-industry payoffs to skew tests and fast track drugs onto the market.

The results of Psychiatry: Global Vaporization in terms of human lives saved is immeasurable, but there is one statistic that can be counted: in the last 12 months psych drug manufacturers have lost 173 billion dollars.

PSYCHIATRY: GLOBAL ERASURE

Thanks to CCHR, psychiatry now has a credibility problem. Its drugs help generate 330 billion dollars a year but at the same time they are reportedly killing an estimated 3,000 patients per month. The CCHR documentary, Psychiatry: An Industry of Death has already exposed the entire sordid history of the profession. The next one exposes the greatest financial scam this planet has ever seen and is the centerpiece of this year's Psychiatry: Global Erasure campaign. This 90 minute documentary is Making a Killing and shows how new diseases are invented so pharmaceutical companies can invent new drugs, how side effects are downplayed if not outright buried and the inside story of how psych drug advertising is expressly designed to convince a population they are mentally ill.

The primary profession to inform is the family physician because, wittingly or not, he is the one who writes the bulk of psychotropic prescriptions. What these drugs can trigger in the way of adverse reactions is another reason to reach him. So this year's campaign is directed to him and flanked with print ads and mailings to the medical profession. At the same time, the campaign reaches directly
to the consumer alerting him to the dangers of psychotropic drugs, with print ads and Internet ads directing them to the all new three-dimensional interactive website where they can obtain and view the full array of CCHR publications, PSAs, Making a Killing and take a complete tour of the Industry of Death Museum, and even report directly to the US Food and Drug Administration's online report form to make reports on adverse psych drug reactions.

It is all part of the humanitarian mission and about saving lives, ending atrocities and gross injustice, as LRH envisioned: "We must learn to bury the past of mental healing and look forward to a better day. The day of help without threat or harm, the day of a new and better civilization, born with the birth of a better understanding of man."

Ad for DVD MAKING A KILLING wrote:

EXPOSING THE GREATEST FINANCIAL CON THIS PLANET HAS EVER SEEN

How psychs invent diseases so that pharmaceutical companies can invent new drugs...or repackage them for new markets.

How the marketing departments of drug manufacturers ghostwrite studies in medical journals, "signed" by psychs whom they have secretly paid off.

How drugs are fast tracked for approval through regulatory agencies by payments of millions.

How side effects are downplayed...if not outright buried.

The inside story of psych-drug advertising as expressly designed to convince a population that they are mentally ill.

A bonus chapter, Prescription for Violence: 15 horrifying minutes of evidence that many mass murderers in the last 50 years were on psych drugs.

IAS-SPONSORED PLANETARY SALVAGE CAMPAIGN
PSYCHIATRY GLOBAL ERASURE

Ads in professional journals and magazines inform the medical profession while ads in consumer publications educate the public and direct them to cchr.org.

Those requesting more information on CCHR and how they can help are sent an information kit including Making a Killing, public service announcements and Adverse Drug Reaction report forms.

CCHR.ORG
Internet banner ads on health and medical sites, magazine ads in professional and consumer magazines, as well as postcard mailings to health care workers, doctors, prosecutors and criminal fraud investigators direct people to CCHR's fully interactive website where they can view all public service announcements, Making a Killing, order CCHR publications, file Adverse Drug Reaction reports to regulatory agencies and tour the entire Psychiatry: An Industry of Death Museum online.

Truly riveting stuff.

It’s been very encouraging to watch Dr. Wiseman’s videos, and to get a sense of what research he and his colleagues have been doing. It’s so hopeful, and actually a lot of fun, that he’s becoming the face of psychiatry in Scientology’s war.

I had the great pleasure of meeting Dr. Wiseman and one of his colleagues some time ago, and I hope that many people involved in the Scientology problem get to meet and talk with him. I hope all sorts of Scientologists get to meet him too.

Thanks for the vids to sKepptiksowat, who I also had the pleasure of meeting and communicating with a bit. He videoed Dr. Wiseman’s talk at the SkeptiCamp at the University of British Columbia in March, plus these recent office visits, and has created an excellent set of videos in support of Scientology’s opponents and victims. He’s got music, drama, color, wisdom and lulz, and Vanonymous loves him.

I’m grateful too for having a voice and forum here at OCMB, and for having all your good minds and hearts to communicate with.

From the scientology PR blurb after the opening of the Washington State scientology ideal org in Seattle this weekend....

Quote:

Washington State Supreme Court Justice Richard Sanders addressed Scientologists and guests at the dedication and opening of the Church of Scientology of Washington on Saturday, July 24, 2010: “The Church of Scientology is truly a leader when it comes to fighting for the civil rights of those subject to abuse by the so-called mental health laws and those that enforce them. And I respect your struggle to abolish coercive practices in the field of mental health and to restore human dignity and freedom to all people.”

Pretty sick uh?

Supreme Court Justice Richard Sanders is what is referred to within scientology as an "ally." The office of special affairs (OSA) cultivates such people. They maintain their wog status but in effect such people come under the scientology organization's coercive control. In this particular type of relationship, I believe the coercion is very subtle. In most cases these people do not know they are being controlled and would be adamant that they are not being controlled. I wonder if he knows that scientology's office of special affairs has folders filled with information about him.

Sanders could certainly benefit from an education from Dr. Wiseman.
How could you trust that judge to rule without bias in any case or sentencing with a psychiatric/mental health element to it.
He's automatically recused himself from any future scientology related litigation but there's still possible influence in the old boy network. Urgh *shudder*

That is freedom, and that is what makes life worth living. And that, to me, is what you represent. ... The Church of Scientology is truly a leader when it comes to fighting for the civil rights of those subject to abuse by the so-called mental health laws and those that enforce them.

Would Justice Sanders fight for the civil rights of the Scientologists subjected to Scientology's coercive Lisa Clause? (Ref. Dr. Wiseman's discussion: http://ocmb.xenu.net/ocmb/viewtopic.php?p=379921#379921)

Surely Sanders couldn't be proud of DM's, Rathbun's and Scientology's accomplishments regarding Lisa McPherson.

This is the "Lisa Clause."

Agreement and General Release Regarding Spiritual Assistance

1. I, ___________________________________, recognize, acknowledge and agree that I am exclusively responsible for my present and future condition in life and for the choices and decisions I make affecting my life. With that in mind, and solely of my own volition and in the independent exercise of my own free will, I am voluntarily signing and submitting to CHURCH OF SCIENTOLOGY ___________________________________ (hereinafter the "Church") this AGREEMENT AND GENERAL RELEASE REGARDING SPIRITUAL ASSISTANCE (hereinafter this "Contract") so that, upon its acceptance by the Church, I may participate in Scientology Religious Services and spiritual assistance under the terms, conditions, covenants, waivers and releases I agree to by signing this contract, and by doing so, I specifically acknowledge and reaffirm all other waivers, releases and agreements I have signed with any Church of Scientology.

2. This contract is my statement of my personal understanding concerning Scientology religious tenets and my statements reflecting my own beliefs and desires. By signing this Contract, I recognize, acknowledge and agree that:

a. Scientology is a religion, the Church is a church of the Scientology religion and all the services and activities of the Scientology religion are exclusively religious in nature.

b. Scientology is unalterably opposed, as a matter of religious belief, to the practice of psychiatry, and espouses as a religious belief that the study of the mind and the healing of mentally caused ills should not be alienated from religion or condoned in nonreligious fields. I am in full agreement with this religious belief. I do not believe in or subscribe to psychiatric labels for individuals It is my strongly held religious belief that all mental problems are spiritual in nature and that there is no such thing as a mentally incompetent person-- only those suffering from spiritual upset of one kind or another dramatized by an individual. I reject all psychiatric labels and intend for this Contract to clearly memorialize my desire to be helped exclusively through religious, spiritual means and not through any form of psychiatric treatment, specifically including involuntary commitment based on so-called lack of competence. Under no circumstances, at any time, do I wish to be denied my right to care from members of my religion to the exclusion of psychiatric care or psychiatric directed care, regardless of what any psychiatrist, medical person, designated member of the state or family member may assert supposedly on my behalf. If circumstances should ever arise in which government, medical or psychiatric officials or personnel or family members or friends attempt to compel or coerce or commit me for psychiatric evaluation, treatment or hospitalization, I fully desire and expect that the Church or Scientologists will intercede on my behalf to oppose such efforts and/or extricate me from that predicament so my spiritual needs may be addressed in accordance with the tenets of the Scientology religion.

c. As I so strongly disagree, as a matter of religious principle, with the use of psychiatric treatment for anyone, including myself, I reject the usage of psychiatric labels and I believe in assisting individuals through religious and spiritual means. Therefore, I am hereby specifying that should I get into a situation in the future, unlikely as it is, where others may think that I need psychiatric treatment of any kind, that I instead desire to receive Scientology spiritual assistance and that it can include, but is not limited to, the Introspection Rundown. Further, I realize that in the future it may consequently be suggested by a senior Scientology minister, should the need arise, that I receive such spiritual assistance, and again, I want to make it clear that under such circumstances I desire to receive Scientology Spiritual Assistance, which may include, but not be limited to, the Introspection Rundown.

d. The Scientology religion teaches that the spirit can be saved and that the spirit alone may save or heal the body, and the Introspection Rundown is intended to save the spirit. I understand that the Introspection Rundown is an intensive, rigorous Religious Service that includes being isolated from all sources of potential spiritual upset, including but not limited to family members, friends or others with whom I might normally interact. As part of the Introspection Rundown, I specifically consent to Church members being with me 24 hours a day at the direction of my Case Supervisor, in accordance with the tenets and custom of the Scientology religion. The Case Supervisor will determine the time period in which I will remain isolated, according to the beliefs and practices of the Scientology religion. I further specifically acknowledge that the duration of any such isolation is uncertain, determined only by my spiritual condition, but that such duration will be completely at the discretion of the Case Supervisor. I also specifically consent to the presence of Church members around the clock for whatever length of time is necessary to perform the Introspection Rundown's processes and to achieve the spiritual results of the Introspection Rundown. I understand, acknowledge and agree that the Introspection Rundown addresses only the individual's spiritual needs and I freely consent, without reservation, and without condition or limitation, to Church members conducting the Introspection Rundown, and that I accept and assume all known and unknown risks of injury, loss, or damage resulting from my decision to participate in the Introspection Rundown and specifically absolve all persons and entities from all liabilities of any kind, without limitation, associated with my participation or their participation in my Introspection Rundown.

I HAVE CAREFULLY READ THIS CONTRACT AND FULLY UNDERSTAND ITS CONTENTS AND CONSEQUENCES. I ALSO UNDERSTAND THAT I AM NOT ELIGIBLE FOR SPIRITUAL ASSISTANCE UNLESS I SIGN THIS CONTRACT. WHILE IT IS UNLIKELY THAT I WILL EVER BE IN A CONDITION WHERE PSYCHIATRIC INTERVENTION MAY BE DEEMED AN OPTION, I HEREWITH REAFFIRM THAT IN SUCH AN EVENT I WISH TO RECEIVE ONLY SCIENTOLOGY SPIRITUAL ASSISTANCE, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE INTROSPECTION RUNDOWN, AND THAT THIS CHOICE IS AN INDEPENDENT EXERCISE OF MY OWN FREE WILL. I FULLY UNDERSTAND THAT BY SIGNING BELOW, I AM FOREVER GIVING UP MY RIGHT TO SUE THE CHURCH, ITS STAFF AND ANY OF THE RELEASEES NAMED IN THE GENERAL RELEASE I SIGNED, FOR ANY INJURY OR DAMAGE SUFFERED IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH SCIENTOLOGY RELIGIOUS SERVICES OR SPIRITUAL ASSISTANCE.

I sign this Agreement and General Release Regarding Spiritual Assistance on this __ day of _________, 20__, intending to be legally bound to it, and request that I be permitted to participate in spiritual assistance.
