Scientology: 3 day detox, silent birth

[Scientology] GQ Magazine talks with Tom Cruise in an interview to appear in their April 25 issue. In the interview he launches a fresh attack on psychiatry, calling for prescription pill poppers to think carefully about the harm they’re doing to their bodies.

“I’ve always found the ‘if it makes me feel better, it’s OK’ rationale a little suspect. I think it’s appalling that people have to live a life of drug addiction when I have personally helped people get off drugs.”

In the interview, the actor claims he can get someone off heroin in three days through Scientology’s detox programs.

Tom Cruise is a staunch Scientology believer and has set his mind to have his child born the Scientology’s “Silent Birth” way:

L. Ron Hubbard - the founder of the strange sci-fi cult - writes in the religion’s creed, that all followers must live by, that new born babies must not hear their mother speak for a week so they will not associate their voice with the trauma of birth.

The creed also states that immediately after leaving the safety of the womb the baby should “be wrapped somewhat tightly in a warm blanket, very soft, and then left alone for a day or so” and no medical examinations must take place within the first week of the baby’s life.

Earlier this month Scientology couple John Travolta en Kelly Preston defended the controversial technique:

“There are unwanted emotions and pain that goes along with any birth. Screaming is fine… It’s the words. If you can avoid saying certain phrases and words… Just try to keep it as quiet as possible. Of course you’re going to groan and yell. It hurts. Just keep it to a minimum.”
