Avengers: Endgame’s Chris Pratt Responds To Ellen Page’s Accusations Against His Church


Chris Pratt's church was just recently criticized by Juno and Inception star Ellen Page for allegedly being an organization against the LGBTQ. Now, the Guardians of the Galaxy actor decides to address these criticisms, taking to social media to make a short statement defending his church.

The Umbrella Academy actress just recently criticized Pratt after his appearance on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert. In the interview with Stephen Colbert, the actor talked about taking a 21-day fast like what was referenced in the book of Daniel in the Bible.

Taking to Twitter, Page asked for Pratt's opinion on the 2015 controversy surrounding two Hillsong Church executives and the homophobic comments that dubbed homosexuality a sin.

Posting on Instagram (screenshot via Variety), Pratt decided to share an image of his response to Page's accusations against the church. While the Jurassic World star doesn't directly mention the actress in his post, he openly discusses the comments she made in Twitter, denying the claims by saying that he goes to a church "that opens their doors to absolutely anyone."

While he defends his church, Pratt also reminds Page that his connections with the organization doesn't really define his personhood.

"My faith is important to me but no church defines me or my life, and I am not a spokesman for any church or group of people. My values define who I am. We need less hate in this world, not more. I am a man who believes that everyone is entitled to love who they want free from the judgement of their fellow man," the actor added.

Pratt has become more open about his faith as of late, and while he shouldn't be persecuted for his beliefs, it comes as no surprise seeing the actor being questioned about his alignments with organizations that come off as discriminatory.
