What do you know, Christians can't differentiate between fiction and reality. Maybe it has to do with them being brainwashed into believing that fictional places like Pearly Gates are real, as well as fictional creatures like angels, talking animals and gods.
Quote:“Reacher” star Alan Ritchson is a devout Christian, but apparently he’s rubbed people of the same faith the wrong way with his acting. Speaking to GQ magazine, the action star said that some Christians have a hard time separating him from his characters and their actions on screen.
“People have this weird relationship with fictional characters, and sort of equate that to the real human being,” Ritchson said. “I don’t have that problem, making that distinction. I get criticized a lot by Christians who are like, ‘How dare you have an unmarried sex scene on TV and then talk about Jesus?’ I’m sorry—I doubt that’s going to be part of the conversation when I’m standing at the pearly gates!”
Ritchson also noted at the time that his religion had become “the most vitriolic tribe.”
“Trump is a rapist and a con man, and yet the entire Christian church seems to be treat him like he’s their poster child and it’s unreal. I don’t understand it,” the actor said as an example.
Ritchson also called out the “atrocities that are happening in the church that are being actively covered up, even to this day with people not being held accountable,” calling such actions “repulsive.”
“I can’t for one second support the Catholic Church while there are still cardinals, bishops and priests being passed around with known pedophilic tendencies,” he added.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
