Shit attracts shit. If he has control over the company he keeps then, his character is a reflection of that company.
And yet you care enough to tell us how little you cared. Says more about you than us.

Chris Pratt attends an anti-gay church with a history of child molestation and ex-gay therapy

Probably the same place they compartmentalize stoning your son to death in the town square if he comes home drunk and all the hundreds of other idiotic Bronze Age nonsense from Leviticus that Christians haven't paid attention to in centuries.
Chris Pratt, along with everyone else with him, is choosing to go to this church. Is he being dragged in with chains with duct tape on his mouth? No.
Nah, ain't nobody got time to think about that. There's "I always knew..." to get in!
If you attend and support a church that blocks gay people from entering and promotes conversion therapy, then your "quality of character" is that you are a complete piece of shit. No more, no less.
Good for you guys, in my country the church still kind ignore us.
Not really. I have stark ideological differences with some of my best friends. But they've always been kind and supporting to myself and my family. Am I supposed to judge them based on which side of an arbitrary line they stand?
I'm pretty anti-religion, but even I wouldn't go so far as to say every church in America has a history of being anti-gay, using conversion therapy, and child molestation.
what would you think of me if I went to visit trump or david duke....?
I mean, he showed his dick to Amy Poehler on the set of Parks & Rec because she "wasn't giving the reaction he wanted" and the take they used shows her honest reaction, yet somehow nobody ever brings this up as a bad thing
Or literally just dont know the history of it and this was his first interaction. You cant presume anything without knowing it all first. Maybe his fiance' goes there too and he checking it out. Alot of what if's here...
Yeah that does make sense. There are plenty of Christians who are not so much interested in the doctrine as a whole, and are more interested in the platitudinal "love thy neighbour" stuff which causes them to love thy gay neighbour, which is great.
The problem is that the doctrine is there, sometimes people read it, and I can't entirely trust that it leads to a postive outcome vis-a-vis gay acceptance, were they to take it seriously....
Wasn't she the one who did that awful Pepsi commerical?
That's not a good look at all. No one should be supporting such a Church, let alone public figures like those. Pratt's political and religious views have been kind of borderline for a while now and he's not super shy about them and this kind of association and tacit endorsement doesn't help in any way. Hell he's also in the midst of the "Daniel Fast," based around fasting the Prophet Daniel undertook in the Bible, which is supposed to help bring people closer to God. So he's pretty deep into it. Will be interesting if this rises to any kind of level where he'd respond to it.
Naw no child molestation at my church and no Gay conversion therapy at all. Mine is a local church and we pretty much keep an Eye on everyone. Though we ( my family) has a thing about our private space. We handshake everyone we don't know and only allow you to get close if we have known you for awhile. Some Gay people I've known have thought I was put off by them because I kept my space from them for awhile until we actually knew each other but found out I do it to everyone new.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but it doesn't look like this is a specific church. As in, they're referring to the Hillsong Church in general - all of them. The child molestation didnt happen in the specific church Pratt went to, it happened within the Church of Hillsong.
And if that's the case, then the examples of specific Churches showing LGBTQ support don't really hold much argument.
Again, correct me if I'm wrong...
Regardless, religion promotes these negative views and I expect most religious people to hold those views... it's a shame and I wish humanity had the sense to not blindly follow religion.

More or less. I usually stick to the video game side. Seems skewed pretty heavily in one direction.
Lol
Don't judge him for blue lives matter shit either, right?
Lol. Pratt's in a Christian Church, right? The last Pope was openly fighting against gay marriage like 6 years ago.
Wasn't that about his brother?
Isn't his brother a policeman or something?
I might be wrong.
Yep, that was her, and while I think she may be disliked around these parts. That did not stop her from having a wildly successful 2018
Lmao. He follows alt right shit. He isn't a wonderful person.
if you are Christian you are not supposed to take anything outside the gospels
Uh, most churches tend to be anti gay, because, you know the bible. There are churches that are welcoming, but the majority aren't.
You are correct, Hillsong is a brand, a HUGE brand with celebrities. Pratt going to Hillsong is the least surprising thing because most famous Christians go there.
He is not a "milkshake duck" because he goes to a mega-popular celebrity church.
By actually saying the words he dont like LGBTQ. Or his practices I guess.
I think it's completely stupid to make blanket judgements about people base on your own preconceived notions of their political beliefs.
I'm not a fan of religion or Pratt but it's a stretch to say he goes to a church "with a history of child molestation" because some dude molested kids decades ago and was removed for it.
The homosexuality stuff is sick but par for the course when it comes to Christians in recent history. What really matters is do they still support that therapy? Does Pratt take any part in it? Does he support it?
Not all humans believe the same things. Not all Christians believe the same things. Not all members of the same church subscribe to the same beliefs.
