Kirk Cameron complains that he is being 'crucified' because of 'American blasphemy laws'

Because of his anti-gay messaging, former Growing Pains actor Kirk Cameron says that he is being crucified because of blasphemy laws.  In April, Cameron told CNN's Piers Morgan his views on same sex marriage:  "I think that it's – it's – it's unnatural. I think that it's – it's detrimental, and ultimately destructive to so many of the foundations of civilization."

"Blasphemy laws are still alive and well in America and I seem to have blasphemed the god of political correctness and they tried to drag me out into the public square and crucify me," Cameron recently complained (see video embedded below).  "Blasphemy laws don't go away.  It's just the god who is blasphemed changes."

After being "born again" when he was 17, Cameron joined forces with Christian evangelist Ray Comfort.

    :rolling eyes: Kirk Cameron is insane. No one is crucifying him, but he'd like to believe everything he's spewing. He's also an idiot too.

    For a certain value of 'crucified' and a certain value of 'law' I expect this is probably true. Both values equal 'not at all.'
