What about Kirk Cameron?

Kirk Cameron, the Richard Gere of Christianity.

 Poor Richard Gere. He's a devout Buddhist devoted to the Dalai Lama. He said in an interview:

"The Dalai Lama is Dalai Lama. But outside of that one title he is a totally fluid human being who engages the heart and mind. He is able to do it with such grace and humility—I think that is the mark of a real teacher, a real friend... We see him as a spiritual teacher, we see him as a deity."

But when a reporter asked the Dalai Lama who his favorite actor was, he said John Wayne.

On top of that, moronic "actor" Steven Seagal was declared to be a "reincarnation (tulku) of the treasure revealer Chungdrag Dorje".

"If someone's a tulku, that's great," Gere said, "but no one knows if that's true." Which is an argument against the religion in general, not just Steven Seagal's place in it.

Gere should think about converting. His religion keeps slapping him in the face. You think Tom Cruise would put up with that?

The humiliation of Kirk Cameron

And now Kirk Cameron finds himself in the same position. The erstwhile teen idol is a big fish in Christian entertainment, and good for him. But now UPI reports that they're shoving him aside and considering Nicolas Cage for the starring role in a remake of the 2006 boxoffice failure Left Behind which had starred Cameron.

At least they're not replacing him with Steven Seagal.
