Evidently scientology should spend a larger part of its fabulous wealth employing resident medical staff.
There's got to be much better angles to attack scientology from than that, is all. Such as "it's stupid".

I think telling their members to refuse medical treatment is quite a good angle to attack, actually.
Although it does obviously fall under the header of 'it's stupid'.

I thought it was only psychiatric treatment they avoided.

I'm not sure, but even that seems a bit dodgy.
Our cult knows more than the accumulated knowledge of decades of psychological research.
Fuck clinical trials, we know what's best.

The thing about choosing to avoid psychiatrists, although a bit naive,
is a great deal more defensible than the thing about aliens dropping nuclear bombs in volcanoes, and machines that test your midichlorian levels, or whatever it is.

Those beliefs in themselves don't hurt anyone.
Keeping someone away from proper treatment can.
