ANNE HATHAWAY GAVE UP RELIGION FOR HER BROTHER
Filed Under: Anne Hathaway > Brother > Gay > Religion
Another reason to love Anne Hathaway (as if “The Devil Wears Prada” weren’t enough.) The “Valentines Day” star told British GQ that she and her family left the Catholic church because of their intolerance of homosexuality. When her beloved older brother Michael came out, the family turned Episcopalian. That didn’t work out so well either, but it’s great to see such a supportive family.

CHRIS BROWN WANTS TO BECOME A MINISTER
Filed Under: Chris Brown > Minister > Religion > Rihanna
It sounds highly improbable, but a friend of Chris Brown leaked this surprising piece of information about him: It seems Chris is aspiring to become an ordained minister! The source says he’s determined to prove to the world that he’s a changed man so he’s been reading the bible and studying to become a man of the cloth. “He’s become more religious since the February incident (in which he beat up his girlfriend Rihanna,) and he’s found God again. He wants to become a minister – at least part time.” He already looked like he was going to church when he appeared on Larry King.

OJ SIMPSON : THE PARTY'S OVER, TIME FOR CHURCH
Filed Under: Crimes and Misdemeaners > OJ Simpson > Religion
The highlight of OJ Simpson’s week at his new address in the Clark County Detention Center was a visit to church. According to Las Vegas gossip Norm Clarke, OJ was allowed out of his cramped cell to attend worship services. His codefendant partner in crime, CJ Stewart, also attended the same service. We’re betting CJ rues the day he ever got involved with Simpson. Up until the last minute, OJ was so confident he’d have a hung jury that he had an acquittal party planned. His sentencing is December 5th.

BILL MAHER'S RELIGULOUS DOCUMENTARY APPROACHES ALL RELIGIONS EQUALLY
Filed Under: Bill Maher > Religion > Religulous > Scientology
It is a rare movie that you walk out of laughing AND smarter than when you walked in. Bill Maher’s documentary “Religulous” is that movie. He asks bold and pertinent questions of religious leaders around the world. And he plays no favorites. All religions (including Scientology) are approached with the same probing queries and the answers will astound and entertain you. Bill is very careful to walk a neutral line – he doesn’t want to end up on a hit list like Salman Rushdie. And Maher presents a powerful argument for keeping church and state separate. This documentary should be required viewing for politicians and students. We’re hoping there will be a Religulous II - there is so much more to investigate.

GREY'S ANATOMY STAR T.R. KNIGHT AND HIS BOYFRIEND STILL BELIEVE
Filed Under: Gay > Grey's Anatomy > Religion > TR Knight
Grey’s Anatomy star TR Knight and his fifteen years younger boyfriend Mark Cornelson can be seen every Sunday attending services at St Victor’s Catholic church in West Hollywood. St Victor’s is a gay friendly church and ironically Mark, who is estranged from his family, says their religious principles rendered them incapable of accepting the fact that he is gay.
