Question: Does Scientology allow members to get cancer treatment

8. Dianetics was originally offered as a substitute for psychiatric treatment

Hubbard got into trouble with the law for basically unlicensed medical practices. He created Scientology as a pseudo religion in order to get around those laws.

So it’s true that Scientology directs its cult members to shun psychiatric treatment and instead embrace “auditing” as treatment. I’m not sure if this extends to other types of medicine, but certainly adherents could believe that. Hubbard certainly taught his make believe “thetan” implants were the cause of both mental and physical illness.

“Implants result in all varieties of illness, apathy, degradation, neurosis and insanity and are the principal cause of these in man.”
