However, Brendan Fraser defied the norm by sharing his thoughts on the love of Christ during the candlelight procession for Christmas at Epcot Center.

From Red State:
"He didn't have much, but what He did have, He shared. It became plenty," said Fraser from the stage. "Food, water, shelter, care. He met the world around Him with empathy. He saw hunger and shared the food from His plate. Saw thirst, poured for them from His own cup. Saw sickness and offered His time for their healing."
Fraser continued by describing that Jesus Christ used his human hands to care for all people, including those who betrayed him, and that the spirit of the season lives in Christ's actions.
"It lives in each and every one of us," said Fraser to applause from the crowd.
Hearing Christ's name said at Disney isn't something you'd expect nowadays, but every so often, it happens. Actor Chris Pratt also preached God's love during the same event, testifying that the love he has for his son helps him to further understand the love God has for us. He too received applause upon the mention of God.
What a poignant message for Fraser to deliver on Christmas, especially given how easily people tend to overlook the true essence of the holiday.
Yet, the irony isn't lost when you consider that this moment unfolded in Disney of all places – a company currently steering clear of anything and everything Christian.
