Other celebrities that have had partnerships with the Hallow app include Mark Wahlberg, Chris Pratt, Liam Neeson, Jim Caviezel, Jonathan Roumie, Bear Grylls, Kevin James, Mario Lopez, maybe more.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't they all practicing Catholics? Catholicism itself maintains a hardline position that abortion is murder. If we're gonna hold them accountable for partnering with a Catholic app for its anti-abortion stance, why not address the religion itself that teaches it as doctrine?
Young people have this idea that it’s now this cuddly aesthetic democratic socialist outfit that is at best now indifferent to LGBTQ. But it’s easily just one of the best run religions that has handled the same rife sex abuse other religious groups have but at a scale without somehow totally collapsing.
The church is successfully reshaping it self around the mental health grift. Hallow as a meditation app being one example. But also there are mental health helplines, support groups and secret networks of councillors/psychotherapists that operate as pipelines for religious indoctrination.
That isn't new really for catholicism. Confession and pastors have always been a sort of mental health grift. A form of therapy before therapy existed.
Hallow literally competes with the official catholic church app that does the exact same thing. I think weirdly we can't blame the church for this one. This is fully some heathen shit done by individual Catholics, which is normally how you see cool shit.
American orthodox when?
Fun fact from Hallow's wikipedia page:
In April 2025, the app cut ties with British actor and comedian Russell Brand, after he was charged withremoved and other sexual offenses.
They aren't. Pratt goes to an evangelical megachurch. Your point otherwise is solid. Criticising individual Catholics for being anti abortion without mentioning that it is rooted in the ideology itself is missing the forest for the trees
Hallow isn't an official Catholic Church app. Hallow is a lifestyle wellness meditation grift with a Catholicism skin run by tech startup people.
That doesn't really address the point that the part of Hallow with which people are taking issue is core to catholicism
Not too surprised by that list except Kevin James lmao
Poptimism and it's consequences have been a disaster for the human race. Retvrn to pitchforking anyone who sells out with a "partnership".
I've only heard 4 of those names and if you lined all 4 of them up I probably couldn't pick which is which
Which makes me better than all of you 
Liam Neeson is the one with pee in his pants. Because he pees in pants in public. A lot.
culture vulture.
comes from a maga family and while tigers do change their stripes, this one hasn't.
That sucks so much, No Doubt's stuff is really radical and good for its time.
Gwen Stefani would come in last place in a Gwen Stefani lookalike competition these days
