Actor Keira Knightley, a self-confessed atheist, says she is desperate to be Catholic because she would “just get to ask for forgiveness”. “It sounds much better than having to live with guilt. It’s absolutely extraordinary. If only I wasn’t an atheist, I could get away with anything,”

She’s pretty but she’s brain-dead like all liberals.
Perhaps she is looking for a good spanking...
I’m surprised her statements didn’t garner more attention. Very inflammatory.
Theres a guy named Keira Nightly who also acts? What an odd coincidence.
Nightly, Knightley - whatever.
wow, talk about not getting it.
>>>Does she realize how many Catholics are in this country and how many people she is turning off by what she said?
But there’s even more people out there who have no idea who she is, or even care... I’m among them.
I guess nobody told her that you have to be truly sorry for your sin and to make a firm resolve never to do it again before you get forgiveness. Christ realized that people would make mistakes and He provided a way for them to face their sins and repent. She’s really quite ignorant about the Catholic faith.
Send her to the Caribbean and let the pirates take care of her.
Maybe if she got a little religion she’d be able to eat something.
If she is an an atheist, why is she even worried about “asking for forgiveness”?
Forgiveness for what, and from Who?
Sheesh, Lizzie, just eat drink and be merry, on your way to becoming worm food.
Here’s my view: if someone in Hollywood says something against a homosexual, the media makes a huge deal out of it. I can’t remember his name but one actor was fired from his job for using the word “faggot.” There have been other instances as well. They are made to aplogize publicly, ostracized, etc. Say something against a Christian, especially a Catholic, and that’s fine, it goes unnoticed for the most part. I’m not even a Catholic and this gets my goat! I’m an evangelical Christian but I still have a lot of respect for the Catholic faith and I’m tired of them being pummeled!
We shouldn't be surprised when the enemies of God who live in a world that hates God get rewarded when Christians are marginalized and ridiculed.
This situation will change, of course, and in the not-too-distant future, but for now those who have made the choice to reject God are just being themselves in their natural state.
I can’t bear to look at her. She’s a spokesman for Maybelline and Death at the same time.
Kinda makes all her movies a write off.
She is very ignorant about Catholocism and I think she should be held accountable for what she said, but of course she never will be. It’s not like anyone who interviews her will bring it up.
She doesn’t get it. Those are very ignorant statements. I won’t be going to see her movies.
So she feels guilty? For what???? Giving her soul to Satan for fame and money???
You are absolutely right on. I just like to let other believers know what is being said. At least for now, with liberal Hollywood, we can hit them where it hurts by not going to their movies.
