Dear Mr. Oagana,

I write concerning an Auto Evolution article published November 19 entitled “World’s Most Expensive Bicycle is Still the $1 Million Gold Extreme Mountain Bike.”

The article contains an ignorant, offensive anti-Scientology slur which I am requesting your assistance to have immediately removed.

As you likely know, Scientology is a recognized religion in the United States and across the globe: www.scientologyreligion.org/religious-recognitions. At the following website, you can find information about The Way to Happiness—the global movement your writer marginalizes and denigrates and which is joined by members of all faiths to uplift communities and inspire positive change: www.scientology.org/how-we-help/way-to-happiness.

I am sure you will agree that discriminatory rhetoric against any religious group or minority has no place in 2021 on a website devoted to celebrating cars.

Thank you in advance for your assistance.

Sincerely,

Bari Berger

National STAND Director
