5 celebrities who don't believe in God
we all see famous people on Television and YouTube videos, but have you ever asked yourself about those people's religion well, here are some celebrities that may make you shocked because they don't even believe in God's existence.
Angelina Jolie :
Angelina Jolie has never declared herself a religious person, but she has also never considered herself an atheist. In fact, the topic of religion was rarely a part of Jolie’s interviews, so there is not much to talk about.
Still, this famous actress did express her hope that there is a God, for the sake of those who believe. On the other hand, she is living proof that people do not need religion at all to treat other people in a good and generous way and towards other human beings in general,as she has helped so many people over the years and adopted three children.
She also shows respect to different cultures and people who do believe, so she has had her son Maddox learn about Buddhism and go to temples, as that is an important part of his Cambodian heritage. All of this, in addition to the fact that she has never openly declared herself as a believer.
Jodie Foster :
Jodie Foster, most famous for her portrayal of Clarice Starling in The Silence of the Lambs, has openly stated as an atheist on so many occasions.
despite being an atheist herself, Foster celebrates all religious holidays regardless of the religion her family belong to, and will allow her children to choose their religion when they grow up. If this does not show enough respect for any and all beliefs out there, it should be pointed out that Foster also spends a lot of time studying religious texts.
This clearly shows that she has made an educated decision when it comes to choosing a religion , and relies on science rather than faith, at least until the existence of God or any other higher power is scientifically proven.
John Malkovich :
John Malkovich, an actor, fashion designer, director and producer, is a declared atheist despite his Croatian roots. His ancestors were Catholic, as are most people in Croatia, but Malkovich does not see much logic in the story of an almighty being looking down at us from the sky.
He does not, however, deny the possibility of a greater power. It should be added that Malkovich’s lack of faith does not have anything to do with his willingness to help those in need.
Malkovich saved the life of a 77-year-old man who fell down on the street and cut his neck by applying pressure until the emergency responders took the old man to the hospital. which makes him think that people don't need religion to aid others.
Brad Pitt :
Although many folks turn to religion when in need of peace, comfort or hope, Brad Pitt is not one of those people. grew up in a Southern Baptist family, this actor has always struggled with the concept of God’s plan, and the unfairness of it.
Now he claims to be more of an agnostic than an atheist, but breaking the ties with religion has not been a loss, but a gain for him. Expanding on his need for fairness, Pitt’s visit to Morocco changed his views even further as he had seen how poor people realy lived.
This made the famed actor become an activist and try to correct the things that religion was not fixing, and it also made him a perfect match for his beautiful wife Angelina Jolie.
Daniel Radcliffe :
Most famous for his role in the Harry Potter movies, Daniel Radcliffe is very open about his lack of faith. He publicly declared himself an atheist just before the release of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, which made him an enemy of the American far right.
Not only is Radcliffe a declared atheist, but he tends to turn into a militant atheist when he feels that religion is in any way influencing or changing the laws imposed by the government. Besides frankly speaking about his religious views, Daniel Radcliffe has found another way to anger conservatives – he does not mind being considered gay.
People often believe he is homosexual, and the young actor seems to think that being mistaken for a gay man is awesome, which is unacceptable to those opposing the idea of absolute equality.
