Ellen Page responds to criticisms of her comments on Chris Pratt’s silence on his anti-LGBTQ church.
Chris Pratt goes to Zoe Church, which was based on the anti-LGBTQ church Hillsong. His pastor Chad Veach, told the NY Times in March 2018 that he created his church after Hillsong.
In August 2015, Hillsong global pastor Brian Houston said that his church is “a gay welcoming church but we are not a church that affirms a gay lifestyle.”
If you are a famous actor and you belong to an organization that hates a certain group of people, don’t be surprised if someone simply wonders why it’s not addressed. Being anti LGBTQ is wrong, there aren’t two sides. The damage it causes is severe. Full stop. Sending love to all

If lgbtq+ people are expressing their pain, their trauma, their experiences...maybe just try and listen? Open your heart, stop being defensive and have compassion. It’s a beautiful and life changing feeling, empathy.

Much love truly to all.

People who attend anti-LGBT religious services always have really warped opinions of LGBT people. I especially hate people who say "Hate the sin, love the sinner" because they ONLY say that in regards to LGBT people and don't really think of everyone else as sinners (even if the Bible contradicts them there.)
I've seen it applied to a lot of different types. It is a go-to when talking about LGBT issues though.

Being LGBTQ isn't a choice and it's certainly isn't a sin so they can fuck right off the planet and into the sun
(not that one is any better from the other, I'm just surprised)
