Beck and Scientology

"Rumors have been around a few years suggesting that alt rocker Beck Hansen had become a member of the Church of Scientology. The real question should be, when was Beck NOT a Scientologist?"

This article explores the relationship between the musician and the Church of Scientology in the aftermath of the mysterious suicide of Beck's collaborator Jeremy Blake.

Even though the author is clearly biased and some allegations seem a bit farfetched, the article makes a couple of interesting points.

I am convinced artists should be judged solely on the basis of their work and not on their spiritual beliefs but Beck's involvement in Scientology does upset me.

    • I agree with saverio. An artist's personal life, including religion, should be just that -- PERSONAL. Who cares if Beck is/was Scientologist. He's not a preacher. He's a musician. Judge him for his talents.
