What Hollywood Believes

by Ray Comfort

SYNOPSIS:

Which Hollywood stars are atheists? What did John Wayne say about God just before he died? How many Hollywood celebrities pray every day and believe the Bible?

This unique publication shares the spiritual beliefs of over 120 top Hollywood stars from both the past and the present including Tom Cruise, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Madonna, Peter Jennings, Winona Ryder, Al Franken, Hugh Hefner, and George Clooney. The findings are both fascinating and informative with celebrity beliefs ranging from reincarnation to the idea that God is a woman to “a deity created in our image,” and “a shaft of light in a doorway.” To stir readers to think beyond the celebrities’ words and examine their own beliefs, Ray Comfort, international speaker and author, compares those celebrity views against the Bible. This powerful evangelistic tool promises to effectively satisfy appetites for the temporal while pointing readers to the eternal.

AUTHOR NOTE:

Late in 2002, I began research for a book on what Hollywood believed, and I gave up. It was almost impossible to find anything on any celebrity’s spirituality so I concluded that the majority of Hollywood’s elite were spiritually bankrupt. But over time, a few celebrities started coming out of the spiritual closet. Each time I found a quote it was like finding a golden needle in a haystack of information.

I hope people will find the book more than titillating. I trust it will help them to see that many of those celebrities to whom we look up to are also looking up...toward the heavens. Although they are rich, famous, successful, and seemingly self-sufficient, they have the same fears, doubts, and aspirations as the rest of us. Some are atheists, but not as many as you would think. I have also attempted to address some of the difficulties and objections that the celebrities have raised—such as the issue of suffering and proof that God exists.
