Anna Faris recently admitted she’s been having “long conversations” with her son Jack about religion and that she often tries to challenge the 14-year-old’s beliefs — an eyebrow-raising confession coming from a Hollywood mother who openly distances herself from faith. The story isn’t some tabloid fever dream; multiple outlets reported Faris saying her son is noticeably more religious and even pro-life, and that he has asked her to consider accepting Jesus.
It’s worth saying plainly: when a father like Chris Pratt, who has publicly credited his faith with changing his life, raises a son who believes in God and the sanctity of life, that is something to applaud, not to sneer at. The left’s reflexive hostility to faith is exactly why parents like Pratt matter — they raise children who aren’t afraid to stand for truth and common-sense values in a culture that wants to erase them.
Anna Faris’s choice to “challenge” her own child’s convictions exposes the smug moral arrogance that pervades so much of Hollywood, where doubt is fashionable and conviction is met with condescension. Conservatives should be skeptical when celebrity elites treat a child’s sincere faith as a problem to be solved rather than a formation of character to be respected.
This moment shouldn’t be pilloried as a family conflict so much as a reminder to hardworking Americans that faith still wins hearts — even across the velvet ropes of Tinseltown. Let Jack Pratt have his convictions; let parents raise children with courage and principle, and stop pretending that religious belief is a defect to be corrected by Hollywood’s moralizers.
