‘Two and a Half Men’ star finds Jesus, says don’t watch

Usually when child actors lose their cute appeal, they become the butt of celebrity jokes. Not for an actor who became a Christian and is now telling viewers not to watch his show

Angus T. Jones, the “half” of the TV sitcom Two-and-a-Half Men, calls his show “filth”. Angus has been an actor on the show for almost 10 years and has starred with Charlie Sheen (and now Ashton Kutcher) and John Cryer.

Angus started attending a Seventh-day Adventist Church in Los Angeles. He realized his life needed to change and his work on the show was not godly. He shares his views in a video posted on YouTube:

I’m on Two and a Half Men and I don’t want to be on it. Please stop watching it. Please stop filling your head with filth…People say it’s just entertainment… Do some research on the effects of television in your brain and I promise you, you’ll have a decision to make when it comes to … what you watch on television. It’s bad news.

Here is the full video testimony:

This is a huge step of faith as Jones makes a reported $350,000 an episode.  He’s likely going to be replaced or the popular show may end with the departure of two main chapters (Sheen and Jones).  Jones went on to say:

You cannot be a true, God-fearing person and be on a television show like that.I know I can’t. I’m not OK with what I’m learning, what the Bible says and being on that television show.

Is Jones right to take stand on his faith? Or, should he just keep his head low and bring home a pay check?
