The trend started on social media after filmmaker Amy Berg posted a picture of four actors named Chris -- Pratt, Hemsworth, Pine, and Evans -- and asked which "has to go". Robert
Downey Jr and Mark Ruffalo have defended their Marvel co-actor Chris Pratt on their social media account after Pratt was dubbed as "the worst Chris" on the internet for his alleged
religious and political beliefs. A Twitter user commented that "he goes to a church that is openly homophobic." In reply to this, Guardians of the Galaxy director James Gunn
wrote back, "So do 98% of Christians, all Catholics, most Muslims & some Jews. I was a Catholic for years, hoping I could have a bigger impact working for gay rights from the
inside. I eventually gave up. But it was a valid choice. & I applaud other non-bigots who do the same." He continued, "Chris himself has openly stated the church he attends
doesn’t reflect all of his personal views, and that he is a 'man who believes that everyone is entitled to love who they want'." > October 20, 2020 Robert Downey Jr also
took to his Instagram account and wrote, "What a world... The "sinless" are casting stones at my #brother, Chris Pratt... A real #Christian who lives by #principle, has never
demonstrated anything but #positivity and #gratitude... AND he just married into a family that makes space for civil discourse and (just plain fact) INSISTS on service as the highest value.
If you take issue with Chris,,, I’ve got a novel idea. Delete your social media accounts, sit with your OWN defects of #character, work on THEM, then celebrate your humanness...

solid a man there is. I know him personally, and instead of casting aspersions, look at how he lives his life. He is just not overtly political as a rule. This is a distraction. Let’s keep
our eyes on the prize, friends. We are so close now." > October 20, 2020 For the uninformed, the trend started on social media after filmmaker Amy Berg posted a picture of four
actors named Chris -- Pratt, Hemsworth, Pine, and Evans -- and asked which "has to go".
