2021’s Top Stories: Actress Apologizes to Kirk Cameron: ‘I Walked with the Flock of Sheep Who Told Me What to Hate’

As 2021 comes to a close, we’re reflecting on our most popular stories of the year. The following article was one of our most read this year. Come back to movieguide.org in 2022 for more inspirational content!

Actress and former AMERICA’S NEXT TOP MODEL winner Adrienne Curry recently apologized to Kirk Cameron for hating him due to his Christianity and belief in God.

“I sneered at the mention of his name because my agnostic beliefs set me above all others in my infinite godless greatness,” Curry confessed on her Facebook. “When I really ask myself why I did so, my only truthful answer is that I was surrounded by godless people who fancied themselves better than anyone and everyone who had faith in anything besides their own selfish selves.”

Curry added that those around her told her “that anyone who was anything besides Muslim, atheist, agnostic, gay, etc., was very bad and stupid.”

However, after watching an interview with Cameron, Curry’s long-held assumptions about the GROWING PAINS star changed.

“Recently, I watched an interview with the guy. He came off as very humble and incredibly likable. I watched a few more. Loyal to his wife, a family man, a former atheist who found some meaning in life. He just comes off as a good dude,” Curry said, adding: “Sorry, dude, I walked with the flock of sheep who told me what to hate and what to like without question.”

Although Curry admitted she did not expect a response from Cameron, Cameron said a friend had informed him of her apology.

“After losing my faith in atheism at 18 I asked the maker of all the beautiful and purposeful things I saw in the world (stars, galaxies, sunrises, purple hydrangeas, children, laughter, deep grief, good food, love, loyalty, courage, honor…) to help me understand the truth about it all,” he responded. “And I started to say, ‘Thank you.’”

“I too, as a young man on top of all the Teen-Beat world in Hollywood, thought I was bigger and better than a made-up god-crutch,” he continued. “But I too was just following the herd of sheep, running with those who wanted to see themselves as too smart to believe or trust in God. I kept denying God’s existence But then, thankfully, I ran out of excuses. I didn’t find God in Babylon; He wasn’t lost. I was lost, and He found me. Blessing to you on your journey.”

Curry expressed her thankfulness for Cameron’s response.

“Thanks for being so gracious to someone admitting they misjudged you,” she wrote. “You haven’t walked an easy path in tinsel town and for that… I salute you.”

Oh good Lord, you really are an over reactionary person. I was posting a picture of her in case there were others, like me, that have no clue as to who she is. I even picked the least revealing picture of her that I found.

That’s in the democrat’s handbook, anything besides Christianity is to be revered.

Sorry but there was no explanation, and "the least revealing picture of her that I found?" I top result in a Bing and Google search of her name is the WP article on her with her image, and which pics is the first one on the Google search:

I would have search more.

Sorry, refuse to use Bing search engine. I’ll stick with DuckDuckGo.

Fine, but using that results in the same WP image being the top result.

Really? So you would say that to the God of the Bible, Jesus Christ and His apostles, which came way before Muhammad who misappropriated Biblical authority? Or do you think that the such public sensual of a beautiful female body display falls under "modest apparel?" (1 Timothy 2:9) Yet my response was actually mainly due to the presumption that that unexplained post was to counter the idea that that article was presenting her as virtuous, which was not my intent, as explained to the poster.

Thanks for your concern.
