Kirk Cameron, former ‘Growing Pains’ sitcom star, says homosexuality is ‘unnatural’ and claims gay marriage is ‘destructive’ to civilization. |
"I think that it's unnatural," Cameron told Piers Morgan on CNN. In terms of gay marriage, the "Fireproof" actor said, "I believe marriage was defined by God a long time ago... One man, one woman for life till death do you part. So I would never attempt to try to redefine marriage."
Cameron then added, "So do I support the idea of gay marriage? No, I don't."
The Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation quickly labeled the former "Growing Pains" teen idol as "anti-gay." "Kirk Cameron sounds even more dated than his 1980s TV character,” said Herndon Graddick, Senior Director of Programs at GLAAD. “Cameron is out of step with a growing majority of Americans," he argued.
