Twitter erupts with hatred against Chris Pratt after he says his faith helps him deal with haters online: '2,000 years ago they hated him too'

Twitter backlash against Chris Pratt went viral after the star talked about his faith helping him deal with online trolls. On Instagram in October, he shared an image promoting his upcoming Pixar film, “Onward.” The post featured a Q&A in which Pratt asked fans to share “a good Bible verse” for a chance to appear on Instagram. While some praised Pratt for his open discussion of religion, others turned to social media platforms to criticize him, citing his church’s views. One of the star’s replies read, “2,000 years ago they hated him too.” The backlash from Twitter users led some to call for the star to be “cancelled” citing a perceived lack of acceptance from his church. Pratt has yet to comment further on the matter. However, it brings up an important conversation about religion and politics, and the effect it can have on people in the public eye.
