Re: 20 minute video on psychiatry

Yea Phi that's a pretty eye-opening vid, if not a bit difficult to watch. 

The Scientology cult has as one of its major tenets the belief that all psychiatry is inherently evil to its foundations.  I actually agree with this belief, much more than I disagree with it anyways. 

What's more, I see a definite link between psychiatry (both historical and current), and the proliferation of darwinism and the theory that human beings came from monkeys.  Because if human beings are just animals, then we can chain them up or lock our own daughters in boxes for 11 months, or like Pavlov, bore out out holes in the cheeks of boys to measure their saliva production, right?  Both psychiatry and darwinism were rising in prominence in the 1800's, and to me the two go hand in glove - so there is certainly, at least, cause for speculation.
