Blind Item #2

The B+ list actress wife of this A+ list actor spent a lot of time trying to stop her husband from talking about his faith to some actor friends. She also tries to hide his politics. Hey, she hides her drugs from him, so it is all good.

    I thought of them, too.

  4. A message to Chris Pratt: In Hollywood, it's better to be known for drugs and alcohol than for being a religious fanatic.
    For example: Mel Gibson. When he was just a raging alcoholic drug user, he won an Oscar.
    Since he 'found' religion, he has been banished to his privately built Malibu church.

    Definitely. He erected a cross on Easter Sunday.

    I hope the Pratt/Farris blinds are false, because they seem like genuinely nice people.

    Having faith does not make you a fanatic. Mel Gibson's problem wasn't his faith, it was that he's an asshole.

    Nobody cared about Gibson's Christianity. He's just a POS turd.

    It kind of depends on what kind of Christian Pratt is. Is he a fundie? There's a nice, liberal Episcopalian church in Santa Monica called Thad's Church which has a big Hollywood following (Witherspoon, McConaughey, etc.). Its pastor endorses gay marriage and encourages Christian activism of the sort: feeding the homeless, helping the elderly and disabled.

    That's the kind of Christianity I appreciate.

    I think it was the violent phone calls to his baby mama on top of the "Sugar Tits" incident that wrote him out--not his religion--since he was a well-known devoted Catholic before all that.

    Hi Sadie. Lots of churches that aren't liberal also help the poor, feed and clothe the homeless, care for the elderly. My church is not liberal and it does all of these things plus more. Hope this helps.

    Nah. He was always a religious nut, it just didn't make the papers until he built that private church. Everyone who worked with him knew about his religious mania decades ago, it didn't hurt his career.

    It doesn't help, Addison. Conservative and especially fundamentalist churches do a lot more harm than good.

    Sorry, Kate, I have to draw the line at vegans and helicopter parents or - god forbid - both at the same time. Vegan helicopter parents would be a total nightmare.

    Mel Gibson isn't just a Christian. He is a Christian nut. He believes his wife is going to Hell because she doesn't hear the mass in Latin, but he is going to Heaven because he does.

    All religions are stupid, but some people are more stupid about them than others.

    A study by two ministers found that in the average church, 90% of the money taken in goes to support the church - paying the mortgage on the building, paying the minister, etc. - and only 10% is left over for charitable works. Churches make lousy charities. They are mainly self-congratulation machines designed to reassure the faithful that they are special and saved and going to heaven and whatnot.

    Fundamentalist yes. But considering that Quakers are considered conservative along with Methodist etc.., not a really harmful group.

  23. Those old guys need to get ahead of the curve and take anger management therapy so they can react to the news that they've been played with dignity.

    It's the "plus more" that bothers me. Fundamentalist (or conservative if you prefer) religion in the US is sectarian: it's all about who you exclude, not who you include. Not very Christian to my mind.

    +1, Vatican is a perfect example of this. BTW, I'm seriously disappointed if the BI is about Chris Pratt. I don't think it's about Mel Gibson because he was a religious nut for decades.

    Mel Gibson IS going to Hell.

    I don't consider Quakers conservative fundamentalists and I've never heard of anyone who does.

    Methodists are going through a schism in their church right now so it's impossible to say what they are, some are quite conservative and some are definitely not.

    Presumably, you are intelligent enough to have understood exactly what I meant and just decided to be contrary for its own sake.

  28. No, presumably, you misunderstood. There is a difference between fundamentalist and conservative. Fundamentalist, yes a harmful group. Conservative Christians, not harmful, the most likely to turn the other cheek. You are classifying a huge portion of harmless Christians into a category they don't belong in.
