5:05Now Playing"Another star of the CBS sitcom "Two and a Half Men" has gone rogue — but in a decidedly different direction than notorious carouser Charlie Sheen.
Actor Angus T. Jones — the "half" in the sitcom's title — says in a new online testimony that he's become a Seventh-day Adventist and loathes the "filth" produced by his raunchy show.
"You cannot be a true God-fearing person and be on a television show like that," says Jones, 19, in a video posted online by Forerunner Chronicles. "I know I can't. I'm not OK with what I'm learning, what the Bible says, and being on that television show."
"Please stop watching it," says Jones, who reportedly earns $350,000 per episode and has starred in the show since he was 10. "Please stop filling your head with filth."*
Ana Kasparian and John Iadarola (Host, TYT University) discuss Angus T Jones denouncing Two and a Half Men, yet not attempting to leave the show because "God wishes" for him to be there. Are his statements on the show fair? Is he using religion inappropriately?
