From his Facebook:

----

Keep storming! The gates of Rotten Tomatoes are falling!

You are A M A Z I N G! You just drove the Rotten Tomato rating to an all-time, soaring high of 94%!
Now the haters and atheists are coming out of the woodwork, attempting to hammer your good work (they rallied to drop your rating super low). They are attempting, once again, to ruin Saving Christmas for everyone. Look at their language, vulgarity, and spirit of hate. They can try to ruin a rating, but they can't stop you from going with family and friends to see Saving Christmas this weekend! If people continue to turn out, the theaters will hold the movie longer. YOU have the power, just like with Rotten Tomatoes, to keep Saving Christmas in the theaters.
Your support sends a very loud message. Films like Soul Surfer, God's Not Dead, Courageous and Saving Christmas are small lights in a dark world. Together, let's light up movie theaters this weekend and remind everyone this Christmas of the true reason for the season. Together, they can't stop us! Are you with me??

No Kirk, your film just sucks and it's disgusting how you accuse atheists for your talent shortcomings.

Sigh. Oh, Kirk.

So, my family has a summer home at a tiny lake in Upstate New York. One day when I was a kid, I saw Kirk in the ice cream shop, and even though he was substantially older than me, I went over to him and told him how much I loved him on Growing Pains. He was incredibly sweet, and talked to me and my family for an hour. I found out that we lived about 10 houses down from him on the lake. Since meeting him, my family has been invited to his huge July 4th celebration every year. It's this insane, fully catered affair at his enormous house. He always has a professional fireworks display even though the lake association does a public one. He was never anything but warm, respectful, kind, and incredibly generous. Seeing him, his wife, and their many children all huddled up watching the fireworks is really touching. We have talked about a lot of issues, and he always listens to others views, then offers his. He has never been combative, judgmental, cruel, or awful to me, or any of my friends I have brought to his home. He tells me everyone is welcome and honestly means it. I respect his beliefs, and he respects mine. He is a friend of mine.

That is why I'm always saddened when he talks in public or is promoting something because he comes off like SUCH AN AS$HOLE.

What Rotten Tomaotes is he using? Mine shows a user rating of 50%, and a critics rating of 9%.

Update: Ahh, just noticed there are 8,000+ user reviews, all either 1 or 5 star reviews, so looks like there has been an online battle for the soul of Jesus and Christmas going on over there. Updated On: 11/21/14 at 10:34 PM

"He tells me everyone is welcome and honestly means it. I respect his beliefs, and he respects mind. He is a friend of mine. "

But the fact that he is so combative in public means he doesn't truly respect them, does he?

Them? Are you talking about the people welcome at his home or my beliefs?

Also, weren't you the person who started the "potential dead cat" thread? The story that made no sense, yet you never responded to anyone's questions?

...and this affects me how?

Protip re: "haterz": The follow-up to the revelation of having them should never be "Good on you for sticking to your guns." It should be "Why do you have haters?"

The thing that confuses me is it seems as if he is arguing in favor of all the secular parts of Christmas and saying "Christmas" is the reason for the season because if he takes the hardline fundamentalist stance and says all the secular stuff is the *problem* even fewer people would go to his little movie.

Remember when Alan Thicke was trolling Kirk on Twitter? Good times.

Posted: 11/22/14 at 5:02pm

We need to tell Kirk we won't listen to him unless he takes his shirt off.

No I was referring to him respecting your beliefs. If it's such a problem for him that he has to take it to a public stage, I'd argue, no matter how nice he is to you at his parties, he doesn't really *respect* them.

And I have no idea what you're talking about.

You can respect people's beliefs, even if they are different than yours. Seriously.

You have no idea what Im talking about? Really?

"Potential Dead Cat?
Posted: 11/8/14 at 02:05pm posted by EricMontreal22
I've been helping out this friend of mine00finding him a place to live and getting him a job. While he has been staying with me, I've let him crash in my my basement apartment. He hasn't stayed there, but his cat has--and she was a beautiful, healthy cat.

Anyway we have found an apartment, and he has been there for three weeks and the cat has died. I want to think from how skinny he (the cat) was when I last saw him I can maake a claim about animal abuse. Thoughts?"

Thanks for bumping it back!

I dunno. I don't think it's respectful to say (quote) God hates gays. I agree that you can *accept* your friends beliefs even if you don't agree with them, and it sounds like that's what he does to you, but publicly speaking out against them is not *respectful*.

I agree, which is why I said he comes off like such an asshole. I consider him a friend, but since I only see him once a year, it's not like we're besties. I would never follow him on social media or watch his stuff. People don't really want to have a debate with him on a holiday, at his home, especially when everyone is trying to relax and have fun.

Oh absolutely. I think I understand your situation.

Posted: 11/22/14 at 11:07pm

Is Kirk Cameron's cat dead or not?

Possibly.

Could you imagine being his cat and the size of his tree? I would just try to ignore it rather than being electrocuted by trying to swish away the disco Jesus ornament.

Posted: 11/25/14 at 12:01pm

Don't you wonder why people get so into the bible and get focused on that "not lie with another man" bit while ignoring the thousands of other messages?
