Doing more harm than good - Scientology

A bunch of them are in Haiti claiming to be able to heal people. From Breitbart/AFP:
Scientologists 'heal' Haiti quake victims using touch
Amid the mass of aid agencies piling in to help Haiti quake victims is a batch of Church of Scientology "volunteer ministers", claiming to use the power of touch to reconnect nervous systems.

Clad in yellow T-shirts emblazoned with the logo of the controversial US-based group, smiling volunteers fan out among the injured lying under makeshift shelters in the courtyard of Port-au-Prince's General Hospital.

A wealthy private donor provided his airplane to fly in 80 volunteers from Los Angeles, along with 50 Haitian-American-doctors, in a gesture worth 400,000 dollars, said a Parisian volunteer who gave her name as Sylvie.

"We're trained as volunteer ministers, we use a process called 'assist' to follow the nervous system to reconnect the main points, to bring back communication," she said.
You have just been in a major earthquake, you are still in a state of shock and an authoritative figure walks up to you and tells you that they are going to heal you. Of course you feel something -- the Placebo Effect has been named because it works. Doesn't mean it isn't all in your head and no real healing has been done. These idiots are doing much more harm than good because if they trick someone into believing that they are feeling well enough to not need care and if they have internal injuries that, in actuality, do need critical attention, these poor people can die unnecessarily. May Xenu harvest the souls of these delusional people and roast them in the pits of hell for all eternity... Posted by DaveH at January 23, 2010 7:06 PM | TrackBack
