Title: Scientology/The Berrics
Post by: SkullDude on September 06, 2009, 09:55:44 AM
This might be obvious or already talked about on here but....
Stereo(scientolofied) gets all the ad perks at The Berrics(scientolofied).
Does it make you question supporting it? Not to mention, Steve Berra is like watching the disney channel in human form.

J Lee dropped it a couple months ago so ain't no more Scientolofied favors being handed out. Looks like Steve Berra is the last man standing when it comes to skaters into Scientology, (ie Greco, Koston, J Lee).

Did Jason lee drop it? I just read this.

"Lee is a member of the Church of Scientology and is on the Board of Advisors for the Citizens Commission on Human Rights, an organization founded by the Church of Scientology "dedicated to investigating and exposing psychiatric violations of human rights."

Yeah you're right. I'm just another dude on the net. I do know that it's true though and am just putting it out there because I'm glad to have that "dark cloud" removed from over Stereo's head.

And yeah you're right....watching the Berrics does contribute money to Sci Fi religions. That's a good point. It's only a matter of time before someone else or a couple companies step up with something strong enough to compete with the berrics. Nothing lasts forever.

although i dont give in to scientology, actually i hate it and it is a dangerous cult, its just ads. dvs sponsors the original batb and stereo is doing this one because they probably jumped at it first or offered the most. i dont think stereo is that deep into scientology, they just let josiah gatlyn on the team and that kid is a jesus freak times 20.

You're gravely oversimplifying it. The problem isn't what they believe, it's what they do. Read about it before you talk about it because there's a lot on that you wouldn't believe. It's not just wacky alien stuff.
