A Little Anti-Religion does you good
from digital spy:
Brad Pitt has revealed that he does not believe in God.
The Inglourious Basterds star has said that he doesn't spend his time thinking if there is a God because no one truly knows.
Pitt told Bild: "No, no, no! I'm probably 20% atheist and 80% agnostic. I don't think anyone really knows. You'll either find out or not when you get there, until then there's no point thinking about it."
The 45-year-old actor, who has six children with Angelina Jolie, has also admitted that the couple owns a giant bed for his children to join them in the morning.
He said: "Yes we have a three-metre wide bed, but even that isn't big enough. They all come crawling in the morning. It's just about surviving! We all have sleep deprivation."
*and*
John Travolta is close to losing his faith in the Church Of Scientology, it has been claimed.
The Hollywood actor has been a loyal follower of the controversial religion for the past 34 years, but is believed to be rethinking his devotion following the death of his 16-year-old son Jett.
Jett, who allegedly suffered from autism and epilepsy, passed away during a family holiday in the Bahamas on January 2.
Scientology critic Rick Ross told the Daily Mail: "There have been strong rumours coming out of Scientology that John Travolta is disappointed that the religion was not able to help his son more. It's led him to question his faith."
He continued: "I think it would be very difficult for John Travolta at this stage, given his history with the religion, to extricate himself from the Church of Scientology. It would be a huge move on his part because Scientology keeps files on its celebrity members containing embarrassing personal information about them.
"And Scientology has proven in the past that it has a penchant for releasing that information to embarrass people who have left and who have said things it doesn't like. If celebrities leave, they tend to do it quietly and keep their mouths shut, because if they do speak out, they are opening themselves up to attack from Scientology.
"That's why I think Travolta will want to keep his problems with the Church private."
*plus, Travolta prolly doesn't want the $citards trying to sue him for some BS...it would be a huge loss for them, yet again. I hoope the best for him and hope that ultimatly he does leave the C of $. Carry on!*
Here's some Colbert win for you:

From ONTD:
***I've always liked Angelina regardless of what other ppl thought, now I have one more reason!***
It is cause for billions of people to rejoice. But not these celebrity Grinches - sorry, atheists.
They are the stars who do not believe three wise men followed a star to a baby in a manger more than 2000 years ago.
Some seem to have given no thought to the concept of a higher being.
Take Angelina Jolie.
In the September 6, 2000 edition of The Onion A.V. Club titled "Is There A God?", celebrities were asked the question. Jolie was among those asked.
She reportedly replied: "Hmm... For some people. I hope so, for them. For the people who believe in it, I hope so. There doesn't need to be a God for me. There's something in people that's spiritual, that's godlike. I don't feel like doing things just because people say things, but I also don't really know if it's better to just not believe in anything, either."
Then there are those who seem to have thought about it a little too much.
Aussie actress Rachel Griffiths is arguably a case in point.
When asked by Madison magazine in 2000 if she was religious, Griffiths answered: "Although I'm not Christian, I was raised Christian. I'm an atheist, with a slight Buddhist leaning.
"I've got a very strong sense of morality - it's just a different morality than the loud voices of the Christian morality ... I can't tell you how many films I've turned down because there was an absence of morality.
"And I don't mean that from any sort of Judeo-Christian/Muslim point of view. I'm not saying they're wrong and can't be made. But, fundamentally, I'm such a humanist that I can't bear to make films that make us feel humanity is more dark than it is light."
Find out the identities of other stars, including Keanu Reeves, who've shunned Santas and the saints in our Celebrity atheists gallery.
And a merry Christmas to all those who believe. To those who don't, merry Tuesday.
Bob Geldof ... as long as Michael Hutchence isn't in heaven he's probably not
bothered. And Michael probably doesn't want to be there.
Bill Gates ... isn't he God?
Marlon Brando ... now he could well be God if Gates isn't.
Bjork ... if Santa's north pole setup was real she'd have seen him from nearby
Iceland.
Ani DiFranco ... no prospect of a Christmas album from her either.
Katharine Hepburn ... her advice is just to be nice.
Bruce Lee ... sleep beats traditional notions of spirituality.
Jodie Foster ... doesn't pray in the panic room.
THE FIVE CELEBRITY ATHEISTS I WAS TOO LAZY TO EMBED INTO THIS POST ARE:
1. Richard Branson
2. Rachel Griffiths
3. Ricky Gervais
4. John Malkovich
5. Billy Joel
