Wow. Neither did I. God bless him.
Good for him. An excellent actor, and a classy man.
I’m glad to hear this. He is arguably one of the best actors out there..
I think Denzel is one of our very best present day actors.
I’m so glad he spoke out. Some of the roles he has played made me wonder. His movies are excellent. God Bless him. He is surrounded by evil. May his light shine brightly.
Does he vote Democrat? does he support the party of abortion? The party with the anti Christian party platform? Does he know (YES) that a vote for a Democrat is a vote to abort children, a vote for the removal of God/Christ and His Word to be removed from the classroom/Public square
Does he know (YES) that a vote for a Democrat is a vote to teach children at school that it`s a ok option for them to have a boy friend or a girl friend or even both.
I must have missed it when he stood up with Franklin Graham, Tony Perkins, Sarah Palin etc
Come and see me Denzel when you have the courage to walk away from your current Church. and Party
Having said that...God Bless Denzel
Probably not a conservative Christian but its something.
Personally I found “The Book of Eli” to have a strangely righteous undertone to it. In the movie, Eli was carrying “the book” and clearly had some divine protection from evil. It all comes together at the end where we realize he’s blind.

He has made so many very good movies. My favorite is “The Mighty Quinn.”
I must have a reading comprehension problem because I never saw in the article where he "speak out against liberal Hollywood"
Not knocking him, but the headline is a bit misleading...
He is a very talented actor...he has played very different types of roles and done all very well...
I still can't figure out if he was blind in his role in "The Book of Eli"
I could watch Denzel read the phone book. One of my alltime favorite actors.
Have “Book of Eli” on DVR. Guess what I’m gonna watch again tonight.
Politics
Washington hasnt spoken too much about his political views. Given his religiosity, one might assume hes rather conservative regarding social issues, but thats just conjecture. Washington was a staunch Obama supporter during the 2008 presidential campaign.7
Washington gave $30,800 to the Obama campaign that year8 and defended the president after 2010s mid-term elections ushered in a Republican Congress, saying:
I dont think its just directed at Obama, I think people are frustrated. Youve got to blame somebody, and hes the boss hes got the big target on his head. I think theres a desire for checks and balances, so now theres a Republican party in Congress, and a Democratic party in the Senate, and a Democratic president, I think it now forces them all to work together.9
And in a strange move, not common among Hollywood stars, Washington officially endorsed a Democratic mayoral candidate in his hometown of Mount Vernon, New York.10
Hes a staunch Democrat, but with perspective and class. During the Bush war years, Denzel wouldnt put down the president, but rather stated his concern for the troops coming home from battle. He said:
Start reading at the second paragraph.
This is so ironic, because he is a major, major Democrat. He is a very big Obama supporter.
I will be royally raked over the coals for my comments, that`s OK.
When he publicly endorses Ted Cruz, and says he wants to turn the clock back on aborting God`s children, and stop teaching children that the homosexual lifestyle is OK, and that he from this moment on is no longer standing with the anti Christian Democrat party platform.
Being a Christian and supporting Obama??...we knew years ago about this President, and so did he. He knew about Clinton as well, every bit as bad as Obama
I guess there’s a reason why I own almost every one of his movies on DVD or Blu-Ray. I just never knew what it was.
Denzel is one of the few actor’s I’ll still pay theatre prices to go see.
These lefties just can’t sell their roles anymore.
So glad to hear this.
Take Mr Denzel with a HUGE grain of salt
Interesting, I always like that in “Man on Fire” his character Creasy was reading Scripture. That was a great movie.
