source: http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,401321,00.html In this recent article from FOX news, a friend of Hayes' reported that he saw a decline in the singer's health ever since his massive stroke in January of 2006. In fact, the author even asserts (accurately) that Hayes was not in mental nor physical condition to be quitting his job and was bullied into leaving South Park by the cult to which he owed his current livelihood. I say "another" victim because the list is actually horrendous when one reads through it. http://www.whyaretheydead.net/ lists hundreds of people who passed because of either their involvemnet in the cult (many tried to leave unsuccessfully) or because of the brainwashing and false medical advice handed to them through cult teachings. Scientology teaches people that ALL drugs, even medically prescribed drugs, alter your mind and are poisonous. They teach this lie because their ultimate aim is to replace the entire psychiatry field with the unfounded, unresearched and very DANGEROUS method called Dianetics. Diantetics uses an electrometer, weilded by an unskilled individual, just as yourself, reading numbers off the meter to determine how many dead alien souls (thetans) are trapped in your body causing your "ailment". Hey, whatever helps you sleep at night. I'm not here to discuss beliefs. In fact, beliefs aside, Scientology should be held accountable for denying yet another cult member proper medical care. Aren't priests held accountable for murder when they "exorcise" someone? Aren't Mormons held accountable if they violate statutory rape laws? Aren't "honor killings" called out for the murder they are? Why then is this one "religion" being allowed to get away with dispersing false medical advice (read: practicing medicine without a license) and resulting in the deaths of its members? Telling Isaac Hayes to run on a treadmill after he was recovering from a SERIOUS HEART CONDITION was the worst advice any doctor, much less a quack cult, could have given him. I'm not saying they murdered him directly, but they sure helped him along. In closing, I leave you with this; an actual medical review of Scientology's "Purification Rundown" (i.e. how they try to cure anything and everything with vitamin B3 overdoses and forced sweating): "Yet current medical opinion suggests caution, even over the milder parts of the "purification" regimen, such as 30 minutes a day of running to "get the blood circulating deeper into the tissues where toxic residuals are lodged." Though running is a popular exercise for many people, Dr. Stanley Wallach, executive director of the American College of Nutrition, argued that "making a blanket advocacy, not knowing the cardiovascular competence of the patient, can be dangerous."
