Re: Dynamixx – RIP Lisa McPherson. I try to be accepting of people's beliefs and agree all religions are flawed… but there's something rotten in the state of Denmark.

Here's my personal perspective. I've been a Scientologist for since 1977. My son was born at 1 1/2 lbs. He's a young adult today and he is definitely mentally retarded and has autistic tendencies. He is on a regular regimen of Tegretol and Depakote for seizure disorder. Big deal! What I mean by that is that NO ONE in the Church has EVER challenged our care and handling of my boy or denied his condition.

Do I maintain close affiliation with doctors on his care, including neurologists? You bet! Do I second-guess their calls sometimes? Often, as should any advocate for someone who is being given chemistry to ingest bodily. My son has been given bad meds on several occasions, where some sort of mood-altering medication had been "dog and ponied" to the doctor by the drug company as a med for seizures and somehow slipped into his regimen, only to result in terrible personality changes in my son, and where we have had to get second opinions, do research, and quickly intervene to change a doctor-ordered regimen. We've been right more often than not. Fact is that most docs appreciate informed parent participation in seizure disorder treatment. It is NOT an exact science with known cures.

If this is not their belief than how can he say his son was autistic and still be a Scientology follower? Their belief's may have very well have been a factor in their son's dismay. I know that is a terrible thing to say but I feel they still have one child and they have to look out for her well being. I'm glad however that John has been able to find some piece with his beliefs but will they re-evaluate some areas of there Scientogy theories concerning the heath and well being of their daughter?

I find it funny that most of the posts I have come across online against Scientology seem bitter and most definitely misinformed.

Pick a religion and you can say the exact same negative things about them as Scientology, religions are man made and so they contain human flaws. I found out from my readings that Scientology has techniques that help you eliminate fears and anxieties beyond just praying and wishing for things to get better. Just as in Buddhism and other eastern beliefs.

On the other hand all these negative posters use Fear tactics to spread their point of view and they do not have any better solutions or techniques. Can any of you Anti-Scientologists lets us know who to remove a fear of Spiders or a Fear of Heights?

So basically he possibly may have been saved if he had been under standard treatment for epileptic patients and not following their wonderful Scientology bullcrap. So sad an death that didn't have to occur because a parent was choosing a religion for a child that was detrimental to his health.

Autism is NOT an illness that people suffer from. It is a world and a life experience that we all need to accept more. Perhaps Scientologists are better off because they accept their children for who they are and don't try to change them into something they are not and never will be. Perhaps Jett Travolta was the happiest kid in the planet and his family loved and appreciated him without a label? HMMMM?!Re: Zoesmom –

Re: lakerfan100 – Better a "homo" then a black unemployed lowlife criminal living in a gang-infested area of los angeles with 20 kids from 5 women ,married to none and paying no child support from his welfare checks and food stamps. Wouldnt you agree at least "homos" bring up property values and don't cause violent crime.

Travolta seems to be a nice person why he's affiliated with this evil cult is really a mystery. It really is a sickening cult.
