"I believed I was the messiah and could cure cancer and AIDS ... I believed God was sending me messages through episodes of Star Trek,

Wait 'til he finds out that Art Bell is retiring.

Dr. Jeffrey Seidman is not a sexual predator, he's a victim of Star Trek episodes. He was only trying to help "The Next Generation". (/sarcasm)

Life imitating art. And it just keeps getting stranger and stranger....

Then please send this POS to God so he can 'splane it to him.

Proving once again...that a university education and a terminal degree does not necessarily indicate intelligence..
or a even a sense of decency or morality...perhaps that is why the high rate of crimes - drug use, rape, robbery, and murder- along with the highests incidence of STDs are on college campuses.

I believed God was sending me messages through episodes of Star Trek

Heck, Gene Roddenberry had been married for 27 years and already had two children when he began doing Star Trek, and that didn't stop him from having affairs with both Majel Barrett (Nurse Chapel) and Nicelle Nichols (Uhura) during the production of the original series. And watta surprise! In virtually every episode of the original series, and TNG, you have Capt. Kirk, Cmdr. Riker, et al, behaving like they were Fred Garvin: Male Prostitute.

I happen to believe the doctor's assertion, that he was getting messages through Star Trek. I just think he misunderstood who was sending them.

Not a very bright legal move. If you claim to be the messiah, wouldn't that only cover the first and second coming?

Seems the doc could have come up with better lies.

The patient, who broke down in tears while she read her victim impact statement, said she had been controlled and manipulated.

Ahhh...so she was on an HMO.

[boris]

Makes perfect sense to me. I want all my doctors with delusions of being the messiah to be able to fly.

As a physician I find this story disgusting. Not surprising, though, as he began by self-medicating with amphetamine. Not surprised he thouught he was god. And imagine we are shoveling this stuff into our kids.
