So Tom Cruise, the scientologist, has gone on the public TV as saying that psychiatry is a’pseudo science’ (copy of article below)… and this is coming from a scientologist, claiming he knows the history of psychiatry… As a person who holds a degree in psychology and has spend a decent amount of time in health science libraries, it annoys me. It doesn’t help that people seem to think celebrities are worth something more than the average person. They are no smarter, no better, and often times, are really fucked up. REALLY fucked up.
So I hope this will create an air where people write the loser off. I am not quite sure why everyone thinks he is that great of an actor. He really can only play 1 role. He uses the same expressions for all of those rolls, and he plays them all like the same person. I don’t think he is particularly talented. All of his movies are the John Grisham books of the film industry, both figuratively and sometimes literally.
I really am not a big fan of people spreading their own religious views to the public in such a way. You can have your beliefs, that is good. But presentation is a big deal… Had he said something like “I am of the belief that…” but to say to the host that ‘you don’t know’ blah blah blah. But tv interviewers are often tools, and he wasn’t confronted on that, because that could ruin the guys career. oh well.
Tom Cruise is a no talent assclown.
