Ellen Page Calls Out Chris Pratt for Supporting Anti-LGBTQ Church

Chris Pratt is known at this point to be extremely vocal about his faith. The Guardians of the Galaxy actor is as likely to speak about his relationship with God as he is to crack a joke.

During an appearance on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert this past Thursday, Pratt discussed how his church helped him with a religious-inspired 21-day cleansing.

“It’s based on [The Book of] Daniel … he was a guy who … only ate fruits and vegetables and grains. … I was inspired by my pastor," Pratt said. "It’s kind of like our Lent, you know, give something up. And so, for 21 days I had no meat, no sugar, no alcohol, and it was actually amazing. It was really cool."

Vox reported that the church Pratt attends is Zoe Church in LA. The church's pastor, Chad Veach, told The New York Times that the church is modeled after Hillsong Church, a Christian megachurch based out of Australia. According to the Hillsong's global pastor Brian Houston, it is, “a gay welcoming church but we are not a church that affirms a gay lifestyle.”

After Pratt's late-night appearance, actress Ellen Page took to Twitter to slam the actor for attending the church. “Oh. K. Um. But his church is infamously anti lgbtq so maybe address that too?,” Page tweeted.

Page doubled down on her comments Saturday.

“If lgbtq+ people are expressing their pain, their trauma, their experiences … maybe just try and listen?" she wrote in another tweet. "Open your heart, stop being defensive and have compassion. It’s a beautiful and life changing feeling, empathy. Much love truly to all.”

Some users were attempting to defend Pratt and his church's beliefs, but the Juno actress was having none of it.

Page, who came out as gay in 2014, has always been vocal about the necessity of celebrities using their platforms to further progressive values, so it's no shock that she's coming after Pratt, who has yet to respond to her comments.
