Notice: Fredric Rice may have removed segments of the replies given to
questions if they contained copyrighted materials. After a very short
while, Scientology "experts" refused to answer questions and
started cut-and-pasting copyrighted cult propaganda. Additionally I
removed URLs in some of the replies, and left them in others. And it's
also important to note that eventually the unfortunate "Greg
Churilov" cultist was ejected from
askme.com for his typical Scientological behavior.
FredricRice asked this question on 5/8/2000:
I've run into some books that Scientology sells. One of them has me
wondering if they're selling quack medicine claims. There's this book
called "Alergy or asthma rundown auditor course," registration Number
tx-3-160-859.
Does anybody know if this text contains quack medicine or practicing
medicine without a license? Or is this all a non-medical proceedure?
Thanks.

Scientology's materials is studded with nuggets of medical quackery.
They claim they can cure anything from arthritis to diabetes, bad
eyesight, asthma, and cancer.
I believe the FDA does not wish to take on the scientology
organization, due to their massive resources and lawyers.
Such quackery is harmful, and often tragic as well, as seen by the
numbers of scientologists who die of treatable diseases. They are
encouraged to eschew medical treatment for scientology services.
I believe they should be held responsible for these deaths.
