Chris Pratt recently made headlines for claiming Jesus was hated too while reacting to being the most hated Chris on the Internet. He also went on to talk about being thick skin saying he was like a rhino as he would stick the horn right up their a** if someone would come his way.
Circling back to Chris Pratt’s anti-LGBTQ church controversy, according to The Indian Express, the actor told Men’s Health, “I never went to Hillsong. I’ve never actually been to Hillsong. I don’t know anyone from that church.” The actor further shared, “Religion has been oppressive as f*ck for a long time. I didn’t know that I would kind of become the face of religion when really I’m not a religious person. I think there’s a distinction between being religious adhering to the customs created by man, oftentimes appropriating the awe reserved for who I believe is a very real God – and using it to control people, to take money from people, to abuse children, to steal land, to justify hatred.”
