MOnday Aug 24, 2015 –(Gephardt Daily) — Mayim Bialik, who stars on the hit TV series The Big Bang Theory is saying faith and religion are never going to be popular in Hollywood.
Bialik spoke with Fox News and said her faith and principles have garnered some backlash.
The 39 year old actress explained, “I think in general, it’s never going to be trendy to be observant or religious in Hollywood circles … There are people I know of faith and we tend to congregate together. I study Jewish texts weekly. That’s something really positive to me when you’re a person of faith, it stays with you all the time.”
She also said, “Being a modest dresser, that for me is a certain amount of my religious faith—privacy and chastity. Just because I have a body doesn’t mean it means to be on display … It’s important, especially for children and men and my sons to hear I’m not ashamed of my body, I just don’t feel the need to display it with two tiny pieces of fabric when I want to go swimming.”
Bialik, has a new website “Groknation.com” that offers insight into religious, faith and women’s issues
In her welcome statement she said, “If something moves me, I promise to share it with you and provide ways to learn more about it and make it your own. In the months ahead, I will bring you insights and challenges from other writers, to expand the conversations we are having in the world. I will highlight individuals, organizations and charities that are working to improve lives, impact local communities and transform the world.
