The death of John Travolta's son Jett gets curiouser and curiouser. There will be an autopsy performed.
The explanation of the causes of the child's health problems is bizarre, to say the least. Scientology is nothing but a crackpot cult.
As I was surfing the internet this afternoon after a nice time with my niece visiting antique shops around southern Oregon, I came across this article about psychiatry critic Thomas Szasz, which I found interesting.
Szasz, one of these libertarian types, founded an organization back in 1969 which has Scientology support, though Szasz himself isn't a member of the cult: the Citizens Commission on Human Rights.

Check out Szasz' Wikipedia entry.
No such thing as schizophrenia? What is it, then, that my brother-in-law has?
Wow...this guy is waaay out there.
I read "The Myth of Mental Illness" many, many years ago and had my doubt about Szasz, who I had seen on various television shows, including one by the American Humanist Association. Then I read his book, "Sex by Presciprtion," which attacked Masters and Johnson and other "sex researchers," and, when I read about his opposition to public education in this book, I decided the guy was a certified crank.
