A couple of Brand’s supporters, reflecting his recent conversion to Christianity, held a banner bearing crosses with the words: “Russell Brand we stand with you. Christ was crucified for telling the truth. Russell is the truth.”
Brand tries to exonerate himself by claiming to be a newly-converted Christian, and Christians jump to his aid. It’s the perfect religion for him - full of powerful perverts who can hide their sexual crimes using the political/cultural power of the church.
Also “insta-forgiveness” if you just apologize to your imaginary friend. It’s an ultimate “get out of guilt no matter what” system as long as you “believe” and “ask for forgiveness”.

Also, if they say they believe, then they believe. And it’s unchristian for you to question their genuineness.
Christians are so desperate to “claim” celebrities as one of them that they will take literally anyone they can get
lol this is so true
