But blanket rules, while comforting and reassuring (because we don't have to dig deeper), are limited in how effective they are.
Perhaps trust is not exactly the right word. (Do you really trust ANYONE for what they say?) But I give powerful credence to what is said by Mel Gibson, Jim Caviezel, or James Woods, for example.
But, as for Hollywood actors, yeah, unless seriously proven to be unchained from the machine by their history, trust them as far as you could throw them (with a straight jacket on).
On the other hand, he’s an actor who is paid to say things, on or off the silver screen. I never trust any actor, whether I agree with them or not.
Fundamentally, a reasonable starting point.

Very good points.
