Chris Pratt has hit back at actor Ellen Page, who had called out "Guardians of the Galaxy" series star for attending an "infamously anti-LGBTQ" church.
Pratt, who identifies as a non-denominational Christian, had advocated about his church Hillsong during an appearance on Stephen Colbert's "The Late Show".
After Page's criticism on Twitter, Pratt posted a long message on Instagram Stories, saying that "nothing could be further from the truth".
"It has recently been suggested that I belong to a church which 'hates a certain group of people' and is 'infamously anti-LGBTQ.' Nothing could be further from the truth. I go to a church that opens their doors to absolutely everyone," he wrote.
Pointing to his split from ex-wife Anna Faris, Pratt said his case is an example of the church opening its doors to "absolutely everyone"
A day later, Page, who came out as gay in 2014 and is married to choreographer Emma Portner, had tweeted, "If you are a famous actor and you belong to an organization that hates a certain group of people, don't be surprised if someone simply wonders why it's not addressed."
