BUZZ: Chris Pratt Discusses How Jesus' Struggles Help Him Cope With Haters

Chris Pratt doesn’t mind the haters. The “Jurassic World” star, who has been outspoken about his faith, agreed that he’s been criticized for it. “I sure do but that’s nothing new, that’s nothing new, you know?” the actor, 43, told Page Six exclusively Monday at a Cinema Society screening of his upcoming Marvel movie, “Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3.” Pratt reiterated his point by quoting biblical scripture. “If I was of this world, they would love me just like that but as it is, I’ve chosen out of this world.
