Tom Cruise (part 2)

I feel I have to highlight the recent TV interview Mr Cruise did where he tried to dismiss psychology and psychiatry as a bunch of crap.

I only caught an overview of this story and am thus likely to be going into this with only half the facts, but that's never stopped me before.

Is this man a complete tit? Granted, Freud has been universily dismissed as a big perv over the years (although I am aware that his theories are being reviewed in the light of current research, maybe we ARE just a bunch of motherf***ers as both he and Snoop have concluded) the overall science of the brain is pretty much established and accepted now.

For someone, who is a Christian Scientist (not quite sure what these fruitcakes believe, bet he's a Creationist though! Evolution, that's just Commie talk.), to say on national US TV that this is all a bunch of bollocks disturbs me.

In an era when a lot of people listen to the opinions of celebrities and accept their isolated world view as the truth, this is a dangerous opinion to be spouting in a country who is only just adjusting to the fact that there are other countries out there.
